Replicated real-time applications such as co-operative document editors have to continuously update a shared state, thus require low network delays. If we use such applications in mobile and weakly connected environments, state information often cannot be broadcasted immediately, and thus it is difficult to maintain consistency. We discuss this problem with the help of DreamTeam, our framework ...

The interactive dynamics involving convective motions in a layer heated from below and internal wave motions in a contiguous, stably stratified layer is analyzed in the weakly nonlinear limit. A reduced dynamical system consisting of three coupled, nonlinear amplitude equations describing the intensity of convection co-existing with bi-directionally propagating long internal waves is derived. T...

Learning visual classifiers for object recognition from weakly labeled data requires determining correspondence between image regions and semantic object classes. Most approaches use co-occurrence of “nouns” and image features over large datasets to determine the correspondence, but many correspondence ambiguities remain. We further constrain the correspondence problem by exploiting additional ...

Increasing amounts of data support a role for guanine quadruplex (G4) DNA and RNA structures in various cellular processes. We stained different organisms with monoclonal antibody 1H6 specific for G4 DNA. Strikingly, immuno-electron microscopy showed exquisite specificity for heterochromatin. Polytene chromosomes from Drosophila salivary glands showed bands that co-localized with heterochromati...

Weakly definable languages of infinite trees are an expressive subclass of regular tree languages definable in terms of weak monadic second-order logic, or equivalently weak alternating automata. Our main result is that given a Büchi automaton, it is decidable whether the language is weakly definable. We also show that given a parity automaton, it is decidable whether the language is recognizab...

in this paper, we introduce and characterize fuzzy wea-kly $e$-closed functions in fuzzy topological spaces and the relationship between these mappings and some properties of them are investigated.

For any $h\in(1,2]$, we give an explicit construction of a compactly supported, uniformly continuous, and (weakly) divergence-free velocity field in $\mathbb{R}^2$ that weakly advects measure whose support is initially the origin but for positive times has Hausdorff dimension $h$. These velocities are continuous space-time locally Lipschitz except at one point satisfy conditions existence uniqu...

The research reported here is a systematic investigation of what competent, native speakers of English, native to contemporary syntactic theory, judge to be grammatically acceptable patterns of co-reference involving names and pronouns. Its central goal is the specification of syntactic factors that influence co-reference within and between sentences. The results show that naive subjects have c...

We have used primarily temperature-programmed desorption (TPD) and infrared reflection-absorption spectroscopy (IRAS) to investigate CO adsorption on a Au(211) stepped single-crystal surface. The Au(211) surface can be described as a step-terrace structure consisting of three-atom-wide terraces of (111) orientation and a monatomic step with a (100) orientation, or 3(111) x (100) in microfacet n...
