A Symphony Conducted by Brunet

We introduce BruNet, a general P2P software framework which we use to produce the first implementation of Symphony, a 1-D Kleinberg small-world architecture. Our framework is designed to easily implement and measure different P2P protocols over different transport layers such as TCP or UDP. This paper discusses our implementation of the Symphony network, which allows each node to keep k ≤ log N...

> This paper presents some fundamental properties of independent and-par-allelism and extends its applicability by enlarging the class of goals eligible for parallel execution. A simple model of (independent) and-parallel execution is proposed and issues of correctness and eeciency discussed in the light of this model. Two conditions, \strict" and \non-strict" independence , are deened and then...

It makes swept insertion and return loss measurements simultaneously, overa wide frequency range. TO THE MICROWAVE ENGINEER, an instru ment that measures insertion and return loss simultaneously, over a broad band, would be as useful as is the voltmeter to other electronic special ists, provided it is made practical in several im portant ways. • Its measurements must really refer to the micro...

Anne Brunet: Gracefully studying how we age

Why do we age? Is it inevitable? Lifespans vary across species as much as 150,000-fold, yet all sexually reproducing species eventually experience loss of function, sometimes sliding into senescence before succumbing to death. Research has pointed to genetic, epigenetic, metabolic, and environmental factors that figure in the aging process. However, the reasons behind organismal aging remain an...
