Continuous intracellular recording of membrane potential with microelectrodes in BSC-1 epithelial cells has been used to study the early ionic effects of the interaction of mitogens with cell surface receptors. Initial results show that (i) there is no significant difference in membrane potential between growing and quiescent cells, (ii) addition of epidermal growth factor or serum to quiescent...

GSM Network Designs usually offers big challenges for achieving an efficient cost while respecting the complex combinatorial technical constraints. This networks have hundred or thousands BTS. They have their traffic grouped in hubs, then in BSC nodes to reach the MSC. Hubs must be elected within the BTS set and BSC nodes have to be geographically allocated in the available sites. Also, the num...
