I present the sandpile load balancer, an application of the abelian sandpile model to dynamic load balancing. The sandpile load balancer exploits the self-organized criticality of the abelian sandpile model to distribute web traffic across a network of servers. I also propose the sandpile load balancer latency minimization problem in which the goal is to minimize the latency of packets across t...

The inflammatory disease human T cell lymphotropic virus type I (HTLV-I)-associated myelopathy (HAM/TSP) occurs in only 1-2% of HTLV-I-infected individuals and is associated with a high provirus load of HTLV-I. We hypothesize that a person's risk of developing HAM/TSP depends upon the efficiency of their immune response to the virus, which differs between individuals because of polymorphism in ...

OBJECTIVES The maintenance and stability of peri-implantar soft tissue seem to be related to the crestal bone around the implant platform and different implant designs connections might affect this phenomenon. The aim of this study was to evaluate by photoelastic analysis the stress distribution in the cervical and apical site of implant-abutment interface of conventional implant joints (extern...
