Shortest Remaining Processing Time first (SRPT) has long been known to optimize the queue length distribution and the mean response time (a.k.a. flow time, sojourn time). As such,...
Quantitative properties of timed regular languages, such as information content (growth rate, entropy) are explored. The approach suggested by the same authors is extended to lang...
Previous studies have shown that single-user systems employing -element antenna arrays at both the transmitter and the receiver can achieve a capacity proportional to , assuming in...

In a heap model, solid blocks, or pieces, pile up according to the Tetris game mechanism. An optimal schedule is an in nite sequence of pieces minimizing the asymptotic growth rat...
In this paper, an expression for the asymptotic growth rate of the number of small linear-weight codewords of irregular doubly-generalized LDPC (D-GLDPC) codes is derived. The expr...

Background: Innumerable biological investigations require comparing collections of molecules, cells or organisms to one another with respect to one or more of their properties. Al...
Background: The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is one of the most widely studied model organisms in aging-related science. Although several genetic modifiers of yeast long...

Background: Predictive microbiology develops mathematical models that can predict the growth rate of a microorganism population under a set of environmental conditions. Many prima...
Background: High-throughput screens comparing growth rates of arrays of distinct micro-organism cultures on solid agar are useful, rapid methods of quantifying genetic interaction...

A class of generic models of protocells is introduced, which are inspired by the “Los Alamos bug” is but which, due to their abstraction level, can be applied to a wider set o...
