Experimentation with Self-configuring Systems
The Internet of Things (IoT) has received increased interest over the last years. Objects of the real world (e.g., cars, traffic lights, buildings, mobile phones, etc.) become connected to the Internet. It is expected that self-configuration becomes an increasingly important subject with the IoT. Self-configuring systems (SCS) adapt their behavior to changes in the environment by dynamically ch...
متن کاملA case of self-experimentation.
In this issue of Cancer Epidemiology, Biomarkers & Prevention, Cheng et a!. (1) report that two of the investigators in their study (M. Root and Z. Cheng) each ingested 1.0 g of AFB1,2 a group 1 hepatocarcinogen (2). The purpose of their experiment was to monitor the urinary excretion, over a 10-day period, of a metabolite of AFB1, AFM1 . This is the first reported instance in which humans were...
متن کاملAlternatives to animal experimentation in basic research.
In contrast to animal testing required by law to guarantee minimum safety standards for the licensing of drugs and chemicals, there are no regulations in basic research forcing scientists to perform animal tests. By (usually) free choice, questions are posed and hypotheses are examined which, in many cases, can only be answered by means of animal tests. Just as easily, different questions could...
متن کاملAn Experimentation Workbench for Replayable Networking Research
The network and distributed systems research communities have an increasing need for “replayable” research, but our current experimentation resources fall short of reaching this goal. Replayable activities are those that can be re-executed, either as-is or in modified form, yielding new results that can be compared to previously obtained results. Replayability requires complete records of exper...
متن کاملFifty Years of Self-Assembly Experimentation
In this paper, we review half a century of research on the design of systems displaying (physical) self-assembly of macroscopic components. We report on the experience gained in the study of 22 such systems, exhibiting components ranging from passive mechanical parts to mobile robots. We discuss the systems with regard to physical and electrical design characteristics, outcome and analysis of s...
