Digital Therapeutics-What they are, what they will be

Preston What are mobile agents , why are they expected to become so popular , and what will they be used for ?

Mobile agents emerged in the mid 1990s and since then have been of considerable interest in the research community. Much of the research carried out underlines the vast potential that the mobile agent paradigm carries for the future of computing. This paper initially describes precisely what a mobile agent is and the characteristics that they have. The paper then outlines the benefits that mobi...

Dendritic Spines: What Are They? What Are They For?

machinery is also identified in spines, within specialized subdomains (88, 102). In addition, polyribosomes and protein translational machinery are often anchored at the base of spines (80). Thus increasing evidence suggests that individual spines represent partially autonomous compartments, having their own regulated membrane-trafficking events that shuttle components into and out of the spine...

Bayes Factors: What They Are and What They Are Not

Bayes factors have been ooered by Bayesians as alternatives to P-values (or significance probabilities) for testing hypotheses and for quantifying the degree to which observed data support or connict with a hypothesis. Schervish (1996) showed how the interpretation of P-values as measures of support suuers a certain logical aw. In this paper, we show how Bayes factors suuer that same aw. We inv...
