Despite recent progress in understanding of how left–right (L– R) asymmetry is generated during vertebrate development, many important questions still unanswered. One such question concerns the mechanism by which the signal responsible for the generation of L–R asymmetry is transferred from the node to the lateral plate. This signal, whose identity remains unknown, is generated in the node, and...

We have proposed a diffusion-type flow control mechanism to achieve the extremely time-sensitive flow control required for highspeed networks. In this mechanism, each node in a network manages its local traffic flow only on the basis of the local information directly available to it, by using predetermined rules. In this way, the implementation of decision-making at each node can lead to optima...

We present a decentralized nonlinear flow control scheme for a class of communication networks with physical constraints. Through a detailed analysis, we demonstrate that nonlinear system theory can be applied to cope with saturation nonlinearity and unknown disturbances in network flow control problems. We solve the constrained queue regulation problem against traffic interferences with contro...

Immunoglobulin gene rearrangement analysis and somatic cell hybridization techniques were used to examine the malignant cell population in an unusual patient with hairy cell leukemia and macroglobulinemia (N Engl J Med 296:92, 1977). Although previous investigations suggested that the IgM macroglobulin was secreted by the circulating leukemia cells, anti-idiotype monoclonal antibodies raised to...

Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) with elite PSO parameters has been developed for power flow analysis under practical constrained situations. Multiple solutions of the power flow problem are useful in voltage stability assessment of power system. A method of determination of multiple power flow solutions is presented using a hybrid of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and local search techniqu...

This report presents the work carried out for the flow chart recognition task in the course of the CLEF-IP 2012 competition. The goal is to obtain structural information of flow charts based on the visual content of the images. To this end, for each flow chart a list of its nodes and their interconnections, i.e. its edges, is extracted and the type of the nodes and edges and attached text is re...

The organizational knowledge is one of the most important and valuable assets of organizations. In such environment, organizations with broad, specialized and up-to-date knowledge, adequately using knowledge resources, will be more successful than their competitors. For effective use of knowledge, dynamic knowledge flow from the sources to destinations is essential. In this regard, a novel comp...

Under the competitive environments, power companies may calculate optimal power flow (OPF) in many occasions: especially for such real time applications as contingency analysis and congestion management. However, caused by congestions, etc., it is not guaranteed that OPF has the feasible solution in every calculation case. This paper proposes a new optimal power flow calculation model applicabl...
