Serial locks with multiple chambers are common on major inland waterways worldwide. For the first time, this study designs a novel heuristic algorithmic structure for generalized serial lock scheduling problem (GSLSP) from batch-processing-based flexible job-shop perspective, which converts GSLSP into discrete optimization problem. Subsequently, overall is decomposed an assignment and two subpr...

We study spatiotemporal patterns of activity that emerge in neural fields in the presence of linear adaptation. Using an amplitude equation approach, we show that bifurcations from the homogeneous rest state can lead to a wide variety of stationary and propagating patterns, especially in the case of lateral-inhibitory synaptic weights. Typical solutions are stationary bumps, traveling bumps, an...

by drawing blood through a heparin lock, patients can be protected from skin damages duo to repeated needle sticks. in addition, this procedure can assist to gain more precise results in laboratory test and to prevent further complications. probably, you have ever used a heparin lock in order to infusion of medicines but, it is possible that you never use of that for blood sampling. both two pr...

1 The PLL (Phase Lock Loop) can synchronize with a deterministic input wave or with a random input symbols. In the first case we have a WPLL (Wave Phase Lock Loop) and in the second case we have a SPLL (Symbol Phase Lock Loop. The WPLL (Wave Phase Lock Loop) is also known as WLL (Wave Lock Loop) or only PLL (Phase Lock Loop). The SPLL (Symbol Phase Lock Loop) is also known as SLL (Symbol Lock L...

We predict the existence of evanescent modes with unlocked phases in two-dimensional (2D) dielectric periodic structures. Contrary to what is known for one-dimensional structures, where evanescent fields lock to the host modulation, we show that in 2D systems a new class of evanescent modes exists with an unlocked real part of the wave vector. Hence, beams constructed from such unlocked evanesc...

In this paper, we present the PR-lock, a prioritized spin-lock mutual exclusion algorithm for real time systems. The PR-lock is a contention-free spin lock, in which blocked processes spin on locally stored or cached variables. In contrast to previous work on prioritized spin locks, our algorithm maintains a pointer to the lock holder. As a result, our spin lock can support priority inheritance...

We report on the first experimental evidence of localized structures (dissipative solitons) in a one-dimensional optical Fabry–Pérot passive Kerr cavity. The Kerr-like medium is a non-instantaneous, diffusive ultra-thin film of liquid crystal inserted in a low-finesse cavity. Solitons with oscillating tails are experimentally observed in this system that can lock together to form complexes of s...

introduction: direction and latency of electrical connectivity between different sites of brain explains brain neural functionality. we compared efficiency of cross correlation and phase locking methods in time lag estimation which are based on local field potential (lfp) and lfpspike signals, respectively. methods: signals recorded from mt area of a macaque’s brain was used in a simulation app...
