Can We Ever Escape from Data Overload?

Data overload is a generic and tremendously difficult problem. We examine three different characterizations that have been offered to capture the nature of the data overload problem and how they lead to different proposed solutions. The first characterization is a clutter problem where there is “too much stuff,” which leads to proposals to reduce the number of data bits that are displayed. The ...

Can Small and Open Embedded Systems Benefit from Escape Analysis?⋆

We discuss in this paper the usefulness and applicability of escape analysis in small and secured embedded systems used in ubiquitous computing. We propose a solution to support both hardware constraints and necessary support of dynamically-loaded components in such a context. Recent years have witnessed an increasing need for small computer applications in nearly every aspect of our daily life...

Protein Crowding within the Postsynaptic Density Can Impede the Escape of Membrane Proteins.

UNLABELLED Mechanisms regulating lateral diffusion and positioning of glutamate receptors within the postsynaptic density (PSD) determine excitatory synaptic strength. Scaffold proteins in the PSD are abundant receptor binding partners, yet electron microscopy suggests that the PSD is highly crowded, potentially restricting the diffusion of receptors regardless of binding. However, the contribu...

Nicotine Dependence among Rural-Urban Migrants in China

BACKGROUND The complex mechanism of nicotine dependency makes it challenging to evaluate dependence or progress towards dependence. The aim of this study was to estimate nicotine dependence levels and identify determinants of dependence among Chinese rural-urban migrants. METHODS Multi-stage systematic sampling was used to select 4,198 rural-urban migrants aged 18 years or older from three me...
