Privacy is an important challenge facing the growth of the Web and the propagation of various transaction models supported by it. Decentralized distributed models of computing are used to mitigate privacy breaches by eliminating a single point of failure. However, end-users can still be attacked in order to discover their private information. This work proposes using distributed hierarchical ne...

We review recent studies that examine the temporal resolution of the avian auditory system as measured behaviorally in a small songbird, the Zebra Finch (Taeniopygia guttata). These birds naturally learn and produce complex harmonic vocalizations. Here we created complex harmonic stimuli that simulate the fine temporal properties of these natural calls in order to probe the possible parallels b...

Editorial: special issue on WeB 2006

This ISeB special issue on e-business is based on a selected set of best papers presented in the Fifth International Workshop on e-Business (WeB), an International Conference on Information Systems (ICIS) workshop event held in Milwaukee, WI, in December 2006, with main sponsorship from the AIS Special Interest Group on E-Business. The papers in this special issue provide a snapshot of the rapi...

Signal protein NtrC possesses a pre-existing conformational equilibrium encompassing both inactive and active states. It shows a positive heterotropic allostery in the single switch domain for binding ligands and phosphorylation. Using a coarse-grained dynamics simulation, we computed the fluctuations and correlations of inter-domain motion in NtrC. The diagonalized correlation between the inac...
