Explicit channel conductance: can it be computed?
On pages XX-ZZ of this issue the reader will find the results of the first explicit computation of the conductance of a large membrane channel based on its crystal structure. Aksimentiev and Schulten, the authors of this paper, chose the well-known alpha-Hemolysin as a proving ground for their all-atom molecular dynamics approach. The problem of relating the conductance of channel pores to thei...
متن کاملWhat Can Be Computed Locally?
1 Summary The paper [1] deals with locality on several levels: It introduces a model for distributed computations and the notion of locally checkable labelings (LCLs). It proves properties about algorithms for locally checkable labeling problems. Two algorithms are analyzed in detail: One for the Weak Coloring problem and one for the Formal Dining Philosophers problem. The paper shows fundament...
متن کاملIt can be smart to be dumb
An important problem in game theory is why bounded rationality occurs, e.g., why altruism to non-kin occurs. Previous explanations involved computational limitations of the players, repeated play among the players etc. As an alternative, we introduce a pre-play step in which each player i chooses a “persona”, i.e., a ficticious utility function she commits to use in the game. By adopting differ...
متن کاملLearning can ’ t be fun , can it ?
Inspired by research by Carrie Heeter et al. and the MIT Games-to-Teach project we set up a small scale empirical study on two educational games on Art aimed at primary school children. We found that both boys and girls liked to play these games; that one game scored better on our ‘fun-index’ and that girls had less mouse skills and lacked certain game skills. This did not, however, affect thei...
متن کاملInsomnia: can it be treated?
Hippocrates, the father of Medicine, spoke of the importance of sleep through this wonderful aphorism. However, it can be said that it was only in 1929 that the modern era of sleep investigation began, with the description of the electrical activity of the human brain by the German psychiatrist Hans Berger, who created the term “electroencephalography”. In Chicago in the 1930s, Loomis, Harvey a...
