We adapt the generic three-dimensional bursting neuron model derived in the companion paper [SIAM J. Appl. Dyn. Syst., 3 (2004), pp. 636–670] to model central pattern generator interneurons and slow and fast motoneurons in insect locomotory systems. Focusing on cockroach data, we construct a coupled network that retains sufficient detail to allow investigation and prediction of biophysical para...

Given a nite set V of points in the plane (called terminals), the rectilinear Steiner minimal tree is a shortest network of horizontal and vertical lines connecting all the terminals of V. The decision form of this problem has been shown to be NP-complete 8]. A new algorithm is presented that computes provably optimal Steiner trees using the \FST concatenation" approach. In the \FST generation"...

in the restructured environment of electricity market, firstly the generating companies and the customers are looking for maximizing their profit and secondly independent system operator is looking for the stability of the power network and maximizing social welfare. in this paper, a one way auction in the electricity market for the generator companies is considered in both perfect and imperfec...

background: magnetite (fe3o4) nanoparticles are currently one of the important and acceptable magnetic nanoparticles for biomedical applications. to use magnetite nanoparticles for bacteria cell separation, the surface of nanoparticles would be modified for immobilizing of nanoparticles on the surface of bacteria. functionalization of magnetite nanoparticles is performed by different surfactant...

objectives: the idiopathic minimal change nephritic syndrome (nephrosis) is responsible in 80% of nephritic syndromes in children. it is a clinical entity characterized by inter and outer renal parameters. main factor in glomerolar damages is proteinuria and the role of ige is possible. aim: in this research, serum ige concentrations were measured in children with nephrosis in three stages: rel...

background: induction chemotherapy for acute lymphoblastic leukemia achieves complete remis sion in over 90% of children. it is apparent therefore that many patients in clinical remission and with out residual disease detectable by conventional light microscopy of peripheral blood or bone marrow films still harbor viable cells of the original disease mrd analysis does have a useful role to play...

I will review recent advances in grammar-based sentence realization from logical-form meaning representations. The LOGON MT prototype aims at the fully-automated, highquality translation of Norwegian instructional texts (on backcountry activities) into English. The LOGON generator operates off underspecified meaning representations derived from ‘deep’ grammatical analysis (in the LFG framework)...

In this paper, an efficient algorithm to design convolved LFSR/SR (Linear Feedback Shift Register / Shift Register) for the pseudo-exhaustive testing (PET) is presented as far as the lengths of the test set and hardware overhead are concerning. In this algorithm, an efficient search to reduce the constraint in the size of the shift register (SR) segment and makes an efficient search to restrict...

The paper describes the development of the analog subscriber Call Generator (CG) for the SI2000 V5 switch node. It provides developers with the test environment without the use of external testing units. The proposed architecture assures effective tests of program layers above the driver of analog subscriber circuits. This was accomplished with minimal changes of the existing program code and a...

Cyclic codes are a subclass of linear codes and have applications in consumer electronics, data storage systems, and communication systems as they have efficient encoding and decoding algorithms. Let m = 2l+1 for an integer l≥ 1 and π be a generator of GF(3m)∗. In this paper, a class of cyclic codes C(u,v) over GF(3) with two nonzeros πu and πv is studied, where u = (3m +1)/2, and v = 2 ·3l+ 1 ...
