The purpose of this research is to develop new methods that will make it possible to efficiently screen complex behavioral phenotypes in the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. The behaviors of interest are those related to higher-order processing related to 'choice' (e.g. social interactions), which are difficult to screen and quantify by conventional methods. The basic strategy is to develop an ...

Fragmentation of TCP Acknowledgements for Higher Throughput Connection Over Wireless Links

TCP congestion control strategies have been known to under-perform on error-prone wireless links. Packet delivery errors caused due to wireless channel noise are likely to cause TCP to initiate a rate backoff reflex that was originally designed to offset network congestion errors. This is counterproductive in terms of effective throughput. Several attempts have been proposed for solving this probl...

Protocol And Software Organization Method For Real-Time Fault-Tolerant Multicasts In Computer Networks
|
|
|
The present invention is based on the notion of the official release time (ORT). Under this technique, the sender attaches the ORT to the message being multicast, thereby asking every receiver to process the message at or after the ORT. The ORT is chosen such that the probability of the multicast being completed by that time with a conclusion of success or failure subject to reasonably bounded lim...

For the motion picture industry and other industries that rely on realistic visual imagery, it would be highly desirable to provide a technique for realistically adding new objects to light-based models. The synthetic objects should be able to have arbitrary material properties and should be able to be rendered with appropriate illumination in arbitrary lighting environments. Furthermore, the obje...

Single-particle Molecular Imaging at the Level of Portraiture Photography
|
|
|
Structural biology at the molecular level is critical to the understanding of protein function, but determining protein structure can be a labor- and time-intensive procedure. While the "gold standard" for structure determination is x-ray crystallography, many protein molecules, particularly integral membrane proteins, are extremely difficult to crystallize. Indeed, most integral membrane protein...

Single-Particle Molecular Imaging at the Level of Portraiture Photography
|

|
Many applications involve a collection of interacting entities/agents in which each entity receives a reward/utility that depends on a set of parameter values or entity actions. Each entity is only in control of its own parameters, and therefore adjusts its parameters in an effort to enhance its own reward/utility. Since all entities are constantly adjusting their parameters, the entire collectiv...
