Understanding the Simulation of Mobility Models with Palm Calculus

The simulation of mobility models such as the random waypoint often cause subtle problems, for example the decay of average speed as the simulation progresses, a difference between the long term distribution of nodes and the initial one, and sometimes the ...

Statistics of extremes: Modeling ecological disturbances

Marc Parlange

The potential advantage of extreme value theory in modeling ecological disturbances is the central theme of this paper. The statistics of extremes have played only a very limited role in ecological modeling, despite the disproportionate influence of unusua ...

Scale-free behavior and universality in random fragmentation and aggregation

Paolo De Los Rios, Amos Maritan

Two distinct methods underlying the existence of power-law distribution were studied. The distribution ws stationary under the process of merging and splitting of classes and the distribution of the entities under study was invariant. An explanation for th ...

Tail Call Elimination on the Java Virtual Machine

Martin Odersky, Michel Schinz

A problem that often has to be solved by compilers for functional languages targeting the Java Virtual Machine is the elimination of tail calls. This paper explains how we solved it in our Funnel compiler and presents some experimental results about the im ...

Return of lymphatic function after flap transfer for acute lymphedema

Melody Swartz

OBJECTIVE: The goals of this work were to develop animal models of lymphedema and tissue flap transfer, and to observe physiologic changes in lymphatic function that occur in these models over time, both systemically with lymphoscintigraphy (LS) and locall ...

Direct processes in the energy deposition of protons in silicon

The low energy part of proton induced SBD spectra have higher number of counts than expected from p+Si reactions. This is the case for all proton incident angles but the effect increases when approaching grazing angles. The effect is shown to be mainly due ...
