patient, they underwent deep brain stimulation on parts of the basal ganglia, either the globus pallidus or subthalamic nucleus (Rodriquez). In conclusion, PD patients had a significant decrease in symptoms for at least 4 years based on this bilateral DBS treatment (Rodriquez). This conclusion aligned with the recent findings of the Grenoble group who followed up with patients after 5 years under the treatment and found them to still exhibit anti-parkinsonian effects

The butt-coupling loss between different tapered rectangular waveguides and a standard single-mode optical fiber has been calculated. Losses as low as 0.16 dB can be reached for waveguides with a refractive-index contrast in the range of 0.5% to 1.96%. The fabrication tolerances are such that practical devices with coupling losses below 0.25 dB are feasible. Key words: Coupling loss, optical waveguides, integrated optics. 1. Introduction In optical systems that contain integrated optical components

transaction fails. It is critical that the database management system maintain the atomic nature of transactions in spite of any DBMS, operating system or hardware failure. 9. With concurrent transactions, two or more users access the DB using a single CPU on the DB server. The CPU executes some instructions from one, and then executes some for the other, switching back and forth between them. The actions may appear simultaneous to the two users. For transactions to be processed simultaneously, two
