Near Optimal Task Graph Scheduling with Priced Timed Automata and Priced Timed Markov Decision Processes [PDF]
Task graph scheduling is a relevant problem in computer science with application to diverse real world domains. Task graph scheduling suffers from a combinatorial explosion and thus finding optimal schedulers is a difficult task. In this paper we present a methodology for computing near-optimal preemptive and non-preemptive schedulers for task graphs.

Surfaceome: a new era in the discovery of immune evasion mechanisms of circulating tumor cells
In the era of immunotherapies, many patients either do not respond or eventually develop resistance. We propose to pave the way for proteomic analysis of surface‐expressed proteins called surfaceome, of circulating tumor cells. This approach seeks to identify immune evasion mechanisms and discover potential therapeutic targets. Circulating tumor cells (

MRSch: Multi-Resource Scheduling for HPC [PDF]
Emerging workloads in high-performance computing (HPC) are embracing significant changes, such as having diverse resource requirements instead of being CPU-centric. This advancement forces cluster schedulers to consider multiple schedulable resources during decision-making.

In this explorative biomarker analysis, we assessed serial sampling of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) with CellSearch in two randomized trials testing immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs) in metastatic breast cancer. Our data demonstrate a prognostic potential of CTCs, most apparent 4 weeks into ICI therapy.

Space zoning concept-based scheduling model for repetitive construction process
Many researchers have studied effective space zoning to reduce the duration of a construction project and interference among work tasks. These studies, however, attempted to plan the construction schedule using the space zoning concept based on network ...

(m,k)-firm constraints and DBP scheduling: impact of the initial k-sequence and exact schedulability test [PDF]
In this paper we study the scheduling of (m,k)-firm synchronous periodic task systems using the Distance Based Priority (DBP) scheduler. We first show three phenomena: (i) choosing, for each task, the initial k-sequence 1^k is not optimal, (ii) we can even start the scheduling from a (fictive) error state (in regard to the initial k-sequence) and (iii)

Circulating tumor cells: advancing personalized therapy in small cell lung cancer patients
Small cell lung cancer (SCLC) is an aggressive form of lung cancer that spreads rapidly to secondary sites such as the brain and liver. Cancer cells circulating in the blood, “circulating tumor cells” (CTCs), have demonstrated prognostic value in SCLC, and evaluating biomarkers on CTCs could guide treatment decisions such as for PARP inhibitors ...
