EGO is a parallel molecular dynamics program running on Transputers. We conducted a performance analysis of the EGO program in order to determine whether it was eeectively using the computational resources of Transputers. Our rst concern was whether communication was overlapped with computation, so that the overheads due to communication not overlapped with computation were less. With the assis...

Osteosarcoma (OS) is the most common primary bone malignancy, but current therapies are far from effective for all patients. A better understanding of the pathological mechanism of OS may help to achieve new treatments for this tumor. Hence, the objective of this study was to investigate ego modules and pathways in OS utilizing EgoNet algorithm and pathway-related analysis, and reveal pathologi...

Research on ego depletion aims at explaining self-control failures in daily life. Both resource models and motivational accounts have been proposed for explanation. The aim of the present research was to test the different assumptions in two dual-task experiments where we operationalized ego depletion as a performance deviation from a self-set goal. In two experiments, we found evidence for thi...

For many people in our society, responsibility for personal welfare, for success and failure, rests solely upon the individual. The result is a tendency for many individuals to develop a characteristic pattern of activity in which the ego is focal and the objective situation, background. So many aspects of the objective world, on the other hand, by their intrinsic properties demand and absorb t...

Analysis of ego-networks is a critical research problem when analyzing large-scale social networks, as an ego-network represents the social circle a person actually contacts with. One of the core tasks in egonetwork analysis is visual comparison, which includes edge comparison and node comparison. Although various works have been done to support comparing normal networks and ego-networks, intui...
