Measuring competitive fitness in dynamic environments.
Most yeast genes are dispensable for optimal growth in laboratory cultures. However, this apparent lack of fitness contribution is difficult to reconcile with the theory of natural selection. Here we use stochastic modeling to show that environmental fluctuations can select for a genetic mechanism that does not affect growth in static laboratory environments. We then present a novel experimenta...
متن کاملDynamic acclimation of photosynthesis increases plant fitness in changing environments.
Plants growing in different environments develop with different photosynthetic capacities--developmental acclimation of photosynthesis. It is also possible for fully developed leaves to change their photosynthetic capacity--dynamic acclimation. The importance of acclimation has not previously been demonstrated. Here, we show that developmental and dynamic acclimation are distinct processes. Fur...
متن کاملMulti-robot Control in Highly Dynamic, Competitive Environments
The control and coordination of multiple mobile robots is a challenging task; particularly in environments with multiple, rapidly moving obstacles and agents. This paper describes a robust approach to multi-robot control, where robustness is gained from competency at every layer of robot control. The layers are: (i) a central coordination system (MAPS), (ii) an action system (AES), (iii) a navi...
متن کاملMeasuring ruggedness in fitness landscapes.
How important are interactions among mutations for adaptation? Obviously, no gene functions in isolation, but it is possible that assuming that mutations have independent effects could still give a good prediction for how adaptation proceeds. In PNAS, Nahum et al. (1) use an elegant combination of simulations and experiments with Escherichia coli to show that even in adaptation over the course ...
متن کاملAdaptive Dynamic Data Placement Algorithm for Hadoop in Heterogeneous Environments
Hadoop MapReduce framework is an important distributed processing model for large-scale data intensive applications. The current Hadoop and the existing Hadoop distributed file system’s rack-aware data placement strategy in MapReduce in the homogeneous Hadoop cluster assume that each node in a cluster has the same computing capacity and a same workload is assigned to each node. Default Hadoop d...
