The Mobile Operating System Substrate (MOSS) is a new system architecture for wireless mobile computing being developed at Harvard. MOSS provides highly efficient, robust and flexible virtual device access over wireless media. MOSS services provide mobile access to such resources as disks, CD ROM drives, displays, wired network interfaces, and audio and video devices. MOSS services are composed...

There have been many theories to describe adsorbed or free gas. However, quantitative description of the occurrence characteristics liquids in porous media has always a great challenge due lack basic theory. Through years research, two theoretical equations, i.e., adsorption ratio equation and state liquid, proposed media, revealed mechanism liquid occurrence. Further, evaluation technology for...

Games are woven into webs of cultural meaning, social connection, politics, and economic change. This article builds on previous work in cultural, new media, and game studies to introduce a new approach to productive play, the promise of play. This approach analyzes games as sites of cultural production in times of increased transnational mediation and speaks to the formation of identity across...

Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic bacterial pathogen implicated in a variety of devastating conditions. Its flexibility as a pathogen is attributed to a myriad of virulence factors and regulatory elements that respond to prevailing environmental conditions. ExoS and ExoT are type III secreted effector proteins, regulated by the transcriptional activator ExsA, that can inhibit invasion ...

This paper builds on previous work in cultural, new media and game studies to introduce a new approach to productive play, the promise of play. This approach analyzes games as sites of cultural production in times of increased transnational mediation and speaks to the formation of identity across pl...

A severe drawback to the scalar Monte Carlo (MC) method is the difficulty of introducing diffraction when simulating light propagation. This hinders, for instance, the accurate modeling of beams focused through microscope objectives, where the diffraction patterns in the focal plane are of great importance in various applications. Here, we propose to overcome this issue by means of a direct ext...

With China's rapid growth as a regional and global power, think tanks in China have received increasing attention from politicians academics, mostly due to the achievements of academic processing policies. Recently, collaborations between media become increasingly tight. This article aims explore tank industry their relationship with by interviewing two members staff one China’s most prominent ...

A graph G = (V, E) is called factor-critical if G = ∅ and G − v has a perfect matching for every vertex v ∈ V (G). A factor-critical graph G is tight (anti-tight, respectively) if for any v ∈ V (G), any perfect matching M in G − v, and any e ∈ M , |N (v) ∩ V (e)| = 1 (|N (v) ∩ V (e)| = 2, respectively), where N (v) denotes the neighborhood of v and V (e) denotes the set of vertices incident wit...
