Another important result of this work is the modular prototype design, because the individual components of the prototype can be replaced.
Researchers at the center, which includes about a dozen MIT faculty members, have been working on different components of the prototype, including reactions between drug precursors, purification, crystallization, tablet formation and monitoring of the overall process.
Nitrogen-alloyed low-carbon grade type 316L(N) SS is the principal material for high temperature structural components of the Prototype Fast Breeder Reactor PFBRR).
The first two components of the prototype system, vectoring and bonding, are standard ways to increase the speed of DSL broadband connections: vectoring cancels out noise in a DSL line, and bonding treats multiple lines as if they were a single cable, which increases bandwidth by a multiple almost equal to the number of cables involved.
The components of the prototype were dimensioned after the results from numerical simulations using meteorological data valid for the hottest six months in João Pessoa (7°8′S, 34°50′WG), whose climate is typically hot and humid.
Each of the main components of the prototype runs on a separate machine with 1GiB RAM and a single core of 2.40GHz running Ubuntu 12.04.
A miniaturised version of the wearable prototype would employ the very same key components of the prototype, which are, by design, suitable for a tiny wearable board.
