The human mind is continuously involved in "projecting" the self in time in order to process past memories and predict future occurrences. "Self-projection" in time involves episodic and spatial memory, relying on medial-temporal structures, but also engag ...
Stress is a strong modulator of memory function. However, memory is not a unitary process and stress seems to exert different effects depending on the memory type under study. Here, we explored the impact of social stress on different aspects of human memo ...
The current verbal patient transfer between nurses and paramedics lacks communication, which leads to loss of information. During this operation, handwritten protocols are used to document the patient's personal data and the treatment given at several inte ...
Transactional memory (TM) has shown potential to simplify the task of writing concurrent programs. However, the semantics of interactions between transactions managed by a TM and non-transactional operations, while widely studied, lacks a clear formal spec ...
Background: This study is based on the hypothesis that functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) indices in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) of schizophrenia patients are spatially more heterogeneous than healthy controls for activation evoked ...
The amount of information that can be stored in visual short-term memory is strictly limited to about four items. Therefore, memory capacity relies not only on the successful retention of relevant information but also on efficient suppression of distractin ...
In the present study we aimed to determine the attentional cost of postural control during adolescence by studying the influence of a cognitive task on concurrent postural control. 38 teenagers aged 12 to 17years and 13 young adults (mean age=26.1) stood b ...
Chronic stress in rodents was shown to induce structural shrinkage and functional alterations in the hippocampus that were linked to spatial memory impairments. Effects of chronic stress on the amygdala have been linked to a facilitation of fear conditioni ...
Pseudo-code descriptions of STMs assume sequentially consistent program execution and atomicity of high-level STM operations like read, write, and commit. These assumptions are often violated in realistic settings, as STM implementations run on relaxed mem ...
This paper introduces Way Stealing, a simple architectural modification to a cache-based processor to increase data bandwidth to and from application-specific Instruction Set Extensions (ISEs). Way Stealing provides more bandwidth to the ISE-logic than the ...
