Recently, the number of multi-homed hosts is getting large, which are equipped with multiple network interfaces to support multiple IP addresses. Although there are several proposals that aim at bandwidth aggregation for multi-homed hosts, few of them support mobility. This paper proposes a new framework called AMS: Aggregate-bandwidth Multi-homing Support. AMS provides functions of not only ba...

0 10 20 30 E Fig 5. Observed convergence of location hypothesis Conclusions A logical sparsely connected autoassociative network (GNU) was used to model homing behaviour of an organism in an environmental simulation. Three phases of homing behaviour were identified in the simulation results. A location error measure was proposed that was seen to characterise the different phases of homing behav...

This thesis describes the implementation of MultiNAT, an application that attempts to provide the benefits of client multi-homing while requiring minimal client configuration, and the evaluation of a novel link-selection algorithm, called AvMet, that significantly outperforms earlier multi-homing methods. The main motivation behind MultiNAT is the growing popularity of cheap broadband Internet ...

The cues by which homing pigeons are able to return to a home loft after displacement to unfamiliar release sites remain debated. A number of experiments in which migratory birds have been treated with a magnetic pulse have produced a disruption in their orientation, which argues that a ferrimagnetic sense is used for navigation in birds. One previous experiment has also indicated an effect of ...

OBJECTIVE Gut homing of lymphocytes via adhesion molecules has recently emerged as new target for therapy in IBDs. We aimed to analyse the in vivo homing of effector (Teff) and regulatory (Treg) T cells to the inflamed gut via α4β7 and G protein receptor GPR15. DESIGN We assessed the expression of homing receptors on T cells in peripheral blood and inflamed mucosa. We studied the migration pa...

background: the present study was designed to evaluate the homing potential of mouse embryonic stem cells (esc) treated with erythropoietin (epo) in hematopoietic organs such as spleen and liver after transplantation using morphological and immuno-histochemical techniques. methods: day-four embryoid body (eb)-derived cells were dissociated and re-plated in medium in the presence and absence of ...

Homing endonucleases are rare-cutting enzymes encoded by introns and inteins. They have striking structural and functional properties that distinguish them from restriction enzymes. Nomenclature conventions analogous to those for restriction enzymes have been developed for the homing endonucleases. Recent progress in understanding the structure and function of the four families of homing enzyme...

BACKGROUND Dendritic, antigen-presenting cells (DCs) determine not only whether lymphocytes produce different types of immune response but also tissue-homing profiles of lymphocytes they stimulate. For example, in health, mucosal DC stimulate T cells focused to home to the mucosa; DC/T-cell circuitry thus targets immune responses to specific tissue locations. Therapies being introduced for infl...

The release of a new platform version is often preceded by prelaunch activities including a preannouncement of new features, improvements, and other innovations. The information contained within these preannouncements not only shape expectations of distinct but connected sides, e.g., users and developers in a video game platform, but also informs a rival platform in a competitive market. Throug...
