Individual mRNAs are translated by multiple ribosomes that initiate translation with an interval of a few seconds. The ribosome speed is codon dependent, and ribosome queuing has been suggested to explain specific data for translation of some mRNAs in vivo. By modeling the stochastic translation process as a traffic problem, we here analyze conditions and consequences of collisions and queuing....

Motorcycle Road Traffic Collisions place a heavy burden on emergency medical services in Jamaica. We explore the existing strategies and legislative policies that may prevent or reduce the severity of these injuries in Jamaica. This is an important aspect of health care as it may minimize the impact of these preventable injuries on the limited resources of the health services. ‎

Status of This Memo This memo provides information for the Internet community. It does not specify an Internet standard of any kind. Distribution of this memo is unlimited. Abstract This document provides recommendations for jittering (randomly modifying timing) of control traffic transmissions in Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) routing protocols to reduce the probability of transmission collisions.

In May 2018, Scotland introduced a minimum unit price on alcohol. We examine the impact of this policy traffic fatalities and drunk driving accidents. Using administrative data universe vehicle collisions in Britain range quasi-experimental modeling approaches, we do not find that had an effect road crash deaths collisions. The results are robust to several sensitivity exercises. There is no ev...

The IEEE 802.11p is a standard in a vehicular communication system, known as Wireless Access in Vehicular Environment (WAVE). An implementation of that standard as the MAC Protocol in a high-density of nodes in Vehicular Ad-Hoc Networks (VANETs) may create a performance drawback, in particular for packet loss and delay whenever collisions happen. Introducing Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA)...

OBJECTIVE Pedestrian and cyclist collisions comprise a significant proportion of preventable injury. In urban settings, collision rates have been linked to various socio-demographic factors. We sought to determine whether neighbourhood marginalization affects pedestrian and cyclist collisions in the Greater Toronto Area. METHODS For 114 intersections, pedestrian and cyclist collisions were ex...

Vehicular Ad hoc Networks (VANETs) have the potential to improve road safety and travel convenience, by providing self-organizing decentralized environments to disseminate traffic data, without requiring fixed infrastructure. The public interest of traffic data makes it appropriate for VANET data dissemination methods to rely on broadcasting. However, scalability issues arise when broadcasting ...

Automotive safety has gained an increasing amount of interest from the general public, governments, and the car industry. This is more than justified by traffic accident statistics, as each year around 1.2 million people die due to road traffic accidents. For these reasons safety remains a core value of Volvo Cars. This paper presents some of the latest active safety developments within Volvo C...

BACKGROUND The Hispanic population is one group that is involved in a disproportionately high percentage of fatal motor vehicle collisions in the United States. STUDY OBJECTIVES This study investigated demographic factors contributing to a lack of knowledge and awareness of traffic laws among Hispanic drivers involved in motor vehicle collisions (MVCs) in southern California. METHODS The cr...

Packet contention is one of the fundamental problems that must be overcome in designing packet switches. In banyan network, which has multistage interconnection structure of many small switch elements, we must be concerned with output port conflicts and internal collisions. Dilated banyan network which provides multiple path for internal link can reduce packet loss due to internal collisions in...
