Abstract Funding Acknowledgements Type of funding sources: Foundation. Main source(s): British Heart Foundation The Robert Lancaster Memorial Fund sponsored by McColl’s Research Group Background electrocardiographic (ECG) response to diagnostic ajmaline provocation (AP) testing has been studied extensively in clinical cohorts. However, the healthy ECG not described. We undertook a trial examini...

BACKGROUND Alternans of early phase and of duration of action potential (AP) critically affect dispersion of refractoriness through their influence on conduction and repolarization. We investigated the phase relationship between the two alternans and its effect on conduction. METHODS AND RESULTS Transmembrane potentials recorded from ventricles of eight swine and three canines during paced ac...

Structural approximation theory seeks to provide a framework for expressing optimization problems, and isolating structural or syntactic conditions that explain the apparent diierence in the approximation properties of diierent NP-optimization problems. In this paper, we initiate a study of structural approximation using integer programming (an optimization problem in its own right) as a genera...

The fluorescent probe, 2-aminopurine-2'-O-methyl riboside (2-AP) has been selectively incorporated at adenosine positions in stem-loops (so called R1inv and R2inv), derived from the ColE1 plasmid encoded RNA I and RNA II transcripts, that interact to form stable loop-loop kissing complexes and bind the RNA one modulator (Rom) protein, such that fluorescence-detected stopped-flow and equilibrium...

This paper considers a wireless uplink network consisting of multiple end devices and an access point (AP). Each device monitors physical process with randomly generated status updates sends these update packets to the AP in uplink. The aims schedule transmissions optimize network-wide information freshness, quantified by age (AoI) metric. Due stochastic arrival at devices, only has partial obs...

4G, 5G, and smart city networks often rely on microwave millimeter-wave x-haul links. A major challenge associated with these high frequency links is their susceptibility to weather conditions. In particular, precipitation may cause severe signal attenuation, which significantly degrades the network performance. this paper, we develop a Predictive Network Reconfiguration (PNR) framework that us...
