The second will be first: competition on directed networks

Multiple sinks competition is investigated for a walker diffusing on directed complex networks. The asymmetry of the imposed spatial support makes the system non transitive. As a consequence, it is always possible to identify a suitable location for the second absorbing sink that screens at most the flux of agents directed against the first trap, whose position has been preliminarily assigned. ...

On the second order first zagreb index

Inspired by the chemical applications of higher-order connectivity index (or Randic index), we consider here the higher-order first Zagreb index of a molecular graph. In this paper, we study the linear regression analysis of the second order first Zagreb index with the entropy and acentric factor of an octane isomers. The linear model, based on the second order first Zag...

Future networks-on-chip; will they be synchronous or asynchronous?

The purpose of the talk is to share some observations and to moderate a discussion of certain issues related to the implementation of networks-onchip (NoC). Future systems-on-chip (SoC) will contain a multitude of different IP-blocks and in order to support the communication between these blocks in a structured way, packet-switched networks-on-chip are expected to replace today’s bus-based solu...

efl students gender and socioeconomic status: the use of politeness strategies in the first and second languages

within the components of communicative competence, a special emphasis is put on the “rules of politeness,” specifically the politeness strategies (brown and levinson, 1978) that speakers deploy when performing the request speech act. this is because the degree of imposition that making a request places upon one’s interlocutor(s) has been seen to be influenced by several factors among which, as ...
