There has been growing recognition in the field of communication disorders concerning the importance of multicultural and diversity issues. This discussion needs to move beyond the theoretical and descriptive stage to the clinical use of this knowledge to improve the communicative functioning of diverse populations. This paper argues that the tenets of evidence-based practice and the Internatio...

Several bacterial taxa change their behavior if the population density exceeds a certain threshold. This phenomenon is the consequence of a communication system between the bacteria and is called quorum sensing (QS). Up to now, this phenomenon is mostly modeled at population level. However, new experimental techniques allow for single cell analysis. We introduce a modeling approach for the desc...

In the paper notion of communication dualism id formalized and explained in Petri net interpretation. We consider communication dualism a basic property of communication in distributed systems. The formalization is done in the Integrated Model of Distributed Systems (IMDS) where synchronous communication, as well as asynchronous message-passing and variable-sharing are modeled in a common frame...

In today‘s wireless communication environment, the Radio Frequency spectrum is occupied for different purposes like cellular, Television, military, emergency or satellite communication. The frequency spectrum used for cellular communication is getting over crowded with increasing number of subscribers and demand for high data rate text or video transmission, but the frequency spectrum in other ...
