Different rhythmic leg movements in vertebrates can share coordinating neural circuitry (Stein 2005). These movements are often similar kinematically, and smooth transitions between the different movements are common. We focused on interlimb coordination of the legs in young infants, to determine if weight bearing and non-weight bearing movements might share coordinating circuitry. If interlimb...

Difficulties in handwriting are often reported in children with developmental coordination disorder, and they represent an important element in the diagnosis. The present study was aimed at investigating the relation between motor coordination and handwriting skills, and to identify differences in handwriting between children without and with coordination difficulties. In particular, we asked w...

Coordination is an important phenomena occurring in a wide variety of social and technical systems. We use simulation to examine the ways in which one important system property, the interaction network, effects overall levels of coordination. In particular, we survey the performance of six different learning algorithms, including reasonable strategies and no regret strategies on networks genera...

We consider a problem of optimally scheduling users in cell boundaries, where the users suffer from the interference from neighboring base stations (BSs). We propose new scheduling schemes that mitigate inter-cell interference through a coordination between two BSs to utilize some of the best known achievable schemes for the interference channel (IC) in information theory. In the proposed sched...

This paper presents Granola, a transaction coordination infrastructure for building reliable distributed storage applications. Granola provides a strong consistency model, while significantly reducing transaction coordination overhead. We introduce specific support for a new type of independent distributed transaction, which we can serialize with no locking overhead and no aborts due to write c...

The use of metal complexes to achieve a conductive molecular junction with a special focus on organometallics is overviewed and illustrated with representative examples. The prospects offered by such compounds owing to their specific properties are discussed.
