Abstract CCC: An Aspect-Oriented Intermediate Language on.Net Platform

The AOSD tools and methodologies have developed in a rapid speed in Java area. However, no matter how homologous.Net and Java are, AOP tools on.Net platform are still in experimental stage. The complex infrastructure and multi-language support make it hard to establish aspect-oriented programming on.Net. Microsoft provides Microsoft Intermediate Language(MSIL) to facilitate language implementation on.Net platform. But MSIL doesn’t support aspect-oriented languages. To facilitate aspect-oriented language implementation on.Net platform, it is best to provide an aspect-oriented intermediate language. This paper presents CCC, an aspect-oriented intermediate language on.Net platform. CCC stands for Common language Cross Cutter. Any aspect-oriented.Net language could first be transformed to CCC and then woven by CCC compiler. Since CCC supports high-level aspect-oriented language constructs directly, such as aspect, there is a little work to do for language implementation and the developers could concentrate on language design

Convergence of Inequality Dimensions in China: Income, Consumption, and Wealth from 1988 to 2018

Using household data from 1988 to 2018, we confirm that the increase in income inequality in China has come to a halt in recent years but show that inequality in wealth and consumption continues to increase. We report a clear convergence of inequality across the different dimensions of income, consumption, and wealth. Households at the top of one dimension are increasingly located at the top of the other two dimensions. The mechanisms for such convergence across dimensions are analysed, and the savings rate links income and consumption, while capital accumulation is the central mechanism linking income and wealth. In addition, the wealth and income structure contribute to intensifying the convergence trend. We argue that the relatively high level of inequality in China may continue since income, consumption and wealth are increasingly reinforcing each other

CD36-mediated podocyte lipotoxicity promotes foot process effacement

Lipid metabolism disorders lead to lipotoxicity. The hyperlipidemia-induced early stage of renal injury mainly manifests as podocyte damage. CD36 mediates fatty acid uptake and the subsequent accumulation of toxic lipid metabolites, resulting in podocyte lipotoxicity
