A versatile infinite-state Markov reward model to study bottlenecks in 2-hop ad hoc networks [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
In a 2-hop IEEE 801.11-based wireless LAN, the distributed coordination function (DCF) tends to equally share the available capacity among the contending stations. Recently alternative capacity sharing strategies have been made possible.

Adaptation Strategies of Horses with Lameness [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Clinics of North America: Equine Practice, 2008
The skill to diagnose lameness in horses is paramount for every equine practitioner. Early recognition of locomotor deficiencies plays a central role in sports medicine management, preventing deterioration of the disease or catastrophic injuries. Horses use characteristic compensatory movements of specific body parts to decrease loading of the affected

The hamming distance in the minority game [PDF]

open access: yes, 1999
We investigate different versions of the minority game, a toy model for agents buying and selling a commodity. The Hamming distance between the strategies used by agents to make decisions is introduced as an analytical tool to determine several ...

An In Vitro A-431 Epithelial Cell Infection Model for Studying Fungal Pathogenicity and Immune Responses Associated With Vulvovaginal Candidiasis

open access: yesBio-Protocol
Vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC), also known as vaginal thrush, is an infection of the vulvovaginal mucosa caused by fungi of the Candida genus. Particularly for patients suffering from recurrent infection, the disease has a significant impact on their ...

Adaptive Graph Signal Processing: Algorithms and Optimal Sampling Strategies

open access: yes, 2017
The goal of this paper is to propose novel strategies for adaptive learning of signals defined over graphs, which are observed over a (randomly time-varying) subset of vertices.

Multiple input control strategies for robust and adaptive climate engineering in a low order 3-box model [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
A low-order 3-box energy balance model for the climate system is employed with a multivariable control scheme for the evaluation of new robust and adaptive climate engineering strategies using solar radiation management.

Adaptation strategies in perturbed /s/ [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Linguistics & Phonetics, 2011
The purpose of this work is to investigate the role of three articulatory parameters (tongue position, jaw position and tongue grooving) in the production of /s/. Six normal speakers' speech was perturbed by a palatal prosthesis. The fricative was recorded acoustically and through electromagnetic articulography in four conditions: (1) unperturbed, (2 ...

Adaptive Investment Strategies For Periodic Environments

open access: yes, 2007
In this paper, we present an adaptive investment strategy for environments with periodic returns on investment. In our approach, we consider an investment model where the agent decides at every time step the proportion of wealth to invest in a risky ...

Adaptive diversification of germination strategies [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2002
Evolution of the germination rate (the proportion of newly produced and dormant seeds that germinates every year) of annual plants is investigated, when the environment is temporally stochastic and spatially heterogeneous. The environment consists of two habitats with synchronous stochastic variation in the annual yield and permanent difference in ...

Adaptive strategies in plant life forms: assessing the variations in leaf ecological stoichiometry and functional traits

open access: yesNotulae Botanicae Horti Agrobotanici Cluj-Napoca
The study of leaf functional traits and leaf ecological stoichiometry is of great significance for understanding plant adaptation strategies and nutrient uptake and utilization.
