Cancer classification is the critical basis for patient-tailored therapy, while pathway analysis is a promising method to discover the underlying molecular mechanisms related to cancer development by using microarray data. However, linking the molecular classification and pathway analysis with gene network approach has not been discussed yet. In this study, we developed a novel framework based ...

among structured peer-to-peer systems, chord has a general popularity due to its salient features like simplicity, high scalability, small path length with respect to network size, and flexibility on node join and departure. however, chord doesn’t take into account the topology of underlying physical network when a new node is being added to the system, thus resulting in high routing latency an...

HP Lab’s COTSon is a full system simulation framework based on AMD’s SimNow. COTSon allows for simulating complete computing systems, ranging from a single node to a large cluster of hundreds of multicore nodes. This technical report is the result of the first six months of the collaboration project between HP Labs and the Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona. The goal of this collaboration is to ...

following the categorical approach to universal algebra through algebraic theories, proposed by f.~w.~lawvere in his phd thesis, this paper aims at introducing a similar setting for general topology. the cornerstone of the new framework is the notion of emph{categorically-algebraic} (emph{catalg}) emph{topological theory}, whose models induce a category of topological structures. we introduce t...

in this paper, the notion of maximal m-open set is introduced and itsproperties are investigated. some results about existence of maximal m-open setsare given. moreover, the relations between maximal m-open sets in an m-spaceand maximal open sets in the corresponding generated topology are considered.our results are supported by examples and counterexamples.

Molecular complexes of 4-(4-aminophenoxy)aniline with a series of diphenols are structurally homologous and adopt the carborundum III topology, which is an unprecedented network for organic solids.

Unique conformations such as rod, semicircle, and circle structures of isolated semi-flexible helical polysilanes were observed by atomic force microscopy (AFM); the chain topology was significantly related to the chain length (molecular weight) on the surfaces.
