To replicate or not to replicate: the case of pharmacogenetic studies: Establishing validity of pharmacogenomic findings: from replication to triangulation.

To replicate or not to replicate: the case of pharmacogenetic studies: Have pharmacogenomics failed, or do they just need larger-scale evidence and more replication?

To Replicate or Not To Replicate Queries in the Presence of Autonomous Participants?

L’objectif d’un système largement distribué sur Internet est d’intégrer des participants dont les spécificités et motivations ne sont pas toujours clairement identifiées a priori. En particulier, des participants autonomes peuvent avoir des intérêts individuels spécifiques vis-à-vis des requêtes, mais aussi des autres participants. Dans un tel contexte, un système ne prenant pas en compte les i...

Andrén and colleagues (2008) recently published a paper reminding us of good scientific practice, taught and learnt during our early years of research, but frequently forgotten. This article has a similar objective. It is highly likely that the majority of microbial ecologists have taken a basic course in statistics. Unfortunately, the basic principles of statistical analysis and its significan...

How to Securely Replicate

We present a method for constructing replicated services that retain their availability and integrity despite several servers and clients being corrupted by an intruder, in addition to others failing benignly. We also address the Issue of maintaining a causal order among client requests. We illustrate a security breach resulting from an intruder’s ability to effect a violation of causahty in th...
