Time-shift scheduling-fair scheduling of flows in high-speed networks [PDF]
IEEE/ACM Transactions on Networking, 1998 We present a scheduling protocol, called time-shift scheduling, to forward data packets from multiple input flows to a single output channel. Each input flow is guaranteed a predetermined forwarding rate and an upper bound on packet delay. The protocol is an improvement over existing protocols because it satisfies the properties of low delay, fairness,

By dawn or dusk—how circadian timing rewrites bacterial infection outcomes
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The circadian clock shapes immune function, yet its influence on infection outcomes is only beginning to be understood. This review highlights how circadian timing alters host responses to the bacterial pathogens Salmonella enterica, Listeria monocytogenes, and Streptococcus pneumoniae revealing that the effectiveness of immune defense depends not only

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

CONTINGENCYDISCRIMINABILITY AND PEAK SHIFT IN CONCURRENT SCHEDULES [PDF]
Journal of the Experimental Analysis of Behavior, 2006 We investigated the effects of discriminative stimuli on choice in a highly variable environment using a procedure in which multiple two‐key concurrent VI VI components changed every 10 reinforcers and were signaled by differential flashes of red and yellow keylights. Across conditions, five pigeons were exposed to a number of different combinations of

Exploiting metabolic adaptations to overcome dabrafenib treatment resistance in melanoma cells
Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.We show that dabrafenib‐resistant melanoma cells undergo mitochondrial remodeling, leading to elevated respiration and ROS production balanced by stronger antioxidant defenses. This altered redox state promotes survival despite mitochondrial damage but renders resistant cells highly vulnerable to ROS‐inducing compounds such as PEITC, highlighting redox
