BunchBFT: Across-Cluster Consensus Protocol

, 2022
In this paper, we present BunchBFT Byzantine fault-tolerant state-machine replication for high performance and scalability. At the heart of BunchBFT is a novel design called the cluster-based approach that divides the replicas into clusters of replicas.

Screening for lung cancer: A systematic review of overdiagnosis and its implications

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Low‐dose computed tomography (CT) screening for lung cancer may increase overdiagnosis compared to no screening, though the risk is likely low versus chest X‐ray. Our review of 8 trials (84 660 participants) shows added costs. Further research with strict adherence to modern nodule management strategies may help determine the extent to which ...

Regional consensus of switched positive multi-agent systems with multiple equilibria

Scientific Reports
This paper investigates regional proportional-integral-derivative consensus of switched positive multi-agent systems with multiple equilibria. A distributed proportional-integral-derivative control protocol is developed by integrating the communication ...

Unbeatable Consensus

, 2014
The unbeatability of a consensus protocol, introduced by Halpern, Moses and Waarts in 2001, is a stronger notion of optimality than the accepted notion of early stopping protocols.

Liquid biopsy epigenetics: establishing a molecular profile based on cell‐free DNA

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cell‐free DNA (cfDNA) fragments in plasma from cancer patients carry epigenetic signatures reflecting their cells of origin. These epigenetic features include DNA methylation, nucleosome modifications, and variations in fragmentation. This review describes the biological properties of each feature and explores optimal strategies for harnessing cfDNA ...

Distributed Optimal Economic Dispatch Based on Multi-Agent System Framework in Combined Heat and Power Systems

Applied Sciences, 2016
In this paper, a novel distributed method is presented to solve combined heat and power economic dispatch problem, which is formulated as a distributed coupled optimization problem. The optimization goal is achieved by establishing two modified consensus

Cytoplasmic p21 promotes stemness of colon cancer cells via activation of the NFκB pathway

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Cytoplasmic p21 promotes colorectal cancer stem cell (CSC) features by destabilizing the NFκB–IκB complex, activating NFκB signaling, and upregulating BCL‐xL and COX2. In contrast to nuclear p21, cytoplasmic p21 enhances spheroid formation and stemness transcription factor CD133.
