When Ambients Cannot Be Opened
We investigate expressiveness of a fragment of the ambient calculus, a formalism for describing distributed and mobile computations. More precisely, we study expressiveness of the pure and public ambient calculus from which the capability has been removed, in terms of the reachability problem of the reduction relation. Surprisingly, we show that even for this very restricted fragment, the reach...
متن کاملWhen the Bellman Equation Cannot Be Solved Analytically
Many questions in managerial decision making imply —if uncertainty is involved— stochastic optimization problems of the form V (S) = max x E {∫ ∞ 0 e−ρtf(S, x) dt } where the state transition dS = g(S, x) dt + σ(S) dz describes the underlying stochastic process S as an Itō process and dz is a Brownian motion. For very simple problems, results can be obtained analytically by solving the correspo...
متن کاملWhen two memories can and cannot be retrieved concurrently.
We examined whether two memories can be retrieved concurrently from long-term memory. In Experiment 1, the subjects recalled words, either from two categories--alternating between the two--or from just one category. In Experiment 2, the subjects recalled two words belonging to either the same category or different categories, and the category prompts for these two responses appeared either simu...
متن کاملTreating cancer when pRb and p53 cannot be reactivated
Activation of oncoproteins and inactivation of tumor suppressors induces tumorigenesis. When these events happen upstream of pRb and p53, cancer therapies may initially succeed and then fail when pRb and p53 are activated and then re-inactivated. Therapies might succeed if they remain effective when pRb and p53 are genetically inactivated.
متن کاملHigh-throughput detection of actionable genomic alterations in clinical tumor samples by targeted, massively parallel sequencing.
UNLABELLED Knowledge of "actionable" somatic genomic alterations present in each tumor (e.g., point mutations, small insertions/deletions, and copy-number alterations that direct therapeutic options) should facilitate individualized approaches to cancer treatment. However, clinical implementation of systematic genomic profiling has rarely been achieved beyond limited numbers of oncogene point m...
