This paper considers piecewise affine models of genetic regulatory networks and focuses on the problem of detecting switches among different modes of operation in gene expression data. This task constitutes the first step of a procedure for the complete id ...
The self-switching principle is a synthesis of synchronous type switching and switch inner protection mechanisms. Both switch ON and switch OFF are performed on the base of current and voltage measurement across the switch. Applied to an active bidirection ...
In this paper we examine possible ways that feedback can be used, in the context of systems with network coding capabilities. We illustrate, through a number of simple examples, that use of feedback can be employed for parameter adaptation to satisfy QoS r ...

This paper addresses the problem of streaming packetized media over a lossy packet network, with sender-driven (re)transmissions and receiver acknowledgments. It extends the markovian formulation of the rate- distortion optimized (RaDiO) streaming framewor ...
Vehicular communication (VC) systems have the potential to improve road safety and driving comfort. Nevertheless, securing the operation is a prerequisite for deployment. So far, the security of VC applications has mostly drawn the attention of research ef ...
The paper addresses the media-specific rate allocation problem in multipath networks. The streaming rate on each path is determined such that the end-to-end media distortion is minimized, when the receiving client aggregates packets received via multiple n ...
Using forward error correction (FEC) in off-line streaming, permitting large buffers, yields spectacular results, but real-time streaming puts hard restrictions on the buffer size and therefore does not allow FEC to deal with long link failures on a single ...
The bacterial inactivation of Escherichia coli on Ag–cotton textiles were investigated under different experimental conditions with novel Ag-nanoparticles fixed on cotton textiles. The evaluation of the bactericide performance of the Ag–cotton was compared ...
Replacing or adding network protocols at runtime is problematic – it must involve synchronization of the protocol switch with ongoing local and network communication. We define a formal mathematical model of dynamic protocol update (DPU) and use it to defi ...
A new concept for a 1 × 2 micromechanical optical switch with 10 μs of switching speed, 29 dB of ON/OFF ratio, and insertion loss of −7.22 dB for λ = 1550 nm and −4.96 dB for λ = 635 nm is presented. The idea is to insert a micromechanical switching mechan ...
