Acting Locally but Thinking Globally
Sensor networks are, above all, embedded systems. The embedding of the nodes in physical space provides novel opportunities for wide-area sensing and monitoring that are unique to this technology and have generated a lot of excitement. At the same time, the very same dispersion in the environment generates a number challenges that need to be addressed, including power limitations because of unt...
متن کاملVision: Thinking Globally, Acting Locally
The global structure of images profoundly influences how we see their local detail, consistent with activity in primary visual cortex being disambiguated via feedback from later visual areas.
متن کاملPulmonary dendritic cells: thinking globally, acting locally
The phrase "think globally, act locally" was coined in the early 1970s and directed individuals to clean up their local environment with the ultimate goal of improving the health of the entire planet. Several recent studies indicate that similar considerations apply to the immune system, in which small numbers of leukocytes, such as pulmonary dendritic cells, can modify the local immune environ...
متن کاملThinking globally, acting locally. The promise of cardiovascular gene therapy.
Most diseases are local problems, whereas most treatments are systemic in nature. This simple, maddening imbalance remains one of the major causes of the ineffectiveness of our current pharmacological armamentarium. The notion of treating local disease with localized therapy has however emerged as one of the great promises of gene therapy. Two articles1,2 in this issue of Circulation Research e...
