It is apparent that genomes harbor much structural variation that is largely undetected for technical reasons. Such variation can cause artifacts when short-read sequencing data are mapped to a reference...
Location-detection problems are pervasive. Examples include the detection of faults in microprocessors, the identification of contaminants in ventilation systems, and the detection of illegal logging in rain forests. In each of...
In this paper, the authors create, justify, and document a system dynamics model of the oil and gas production within the Permian Basin of Texas. Then the researchers show how to fit the model to historical time series data (big...
Performance is an essential characteristic of any cloud computing system. It can be enhance through parallel computing, scheduling and load balancing. This work evaluates the connection between the response time (RT) and virtual...
Multipath Transmission Control Protocol (MPTCP) is a transport layer protocol, which transmits TCP segments on more than one path, in multihomed devices. It was designed with the aim of Bandwidth aggregation and redundant...
Medical education emphasizes cross-cultural training programs to meet the needs of diverse patients and understand social determinants of health as root causes leading to healthcare disparities. The question remains about how to...
