Introduction: Several studies have reported a relationship between neural activity in the parietal cortex and episodic memory retrieval. While positron emission tomography has revealed that the left parietal cortex shows greater activity in retrieving auditory information than visual information during word recognition, the temporal characteristics of such parietal activities remain unclear. In...

Numerous research groups are now utilizing Basic Formal Ontology (BFO) as an upper-level framework to assist in the organization and integration of biomedical information. This paper provides elucidation of the three BFO categories of function, role, and disposition, and considers two proposed sub-categories of artifactual function and biological function. The motivation is to help advance the ...

Since ATM networks will have to cope with a wide range of applications, some of them producing highly variable tra c, congestion control plays a crucial role for such networks. In this context, the policing function has been introduced to monitor the relevant tra c characteristics of any connection, and several policing mechanisms have been proposed in the literature. They will be called pick-u...

• Recent data obtained in this laboratory suggest that basic nuclear proteins may exert some controlling extranuclear influence on cellular activity. For example, very low concentrations of purified histones obtained from thymus, liver, kidney and brain, as well as semipurified histones derived from heart and skeletal muscle, inhibit a membraneATPase system associated with active cation transpo...

in this article, we develop the distributed order fractional hybrid differential equations (dofhdes) with linear perturbations involving the fractional riemann-liouville derivative of order $0 < q < 1$ with respect to a nonnegative density function. furthermore, an existence theorem for the fractional hybrid differential equations of distributed order is proved under the mixed $varphi$-lipschit...

Echocardiography is a non-invasive diagnostic technique which provides information on cardiac morphology, function, and hemodynamics. It is the most frequently used cardiovascular diagnostic test only after electrocardiography. In less than five decades, the evolution in this technique has made it the basic part of cardiovascular medicine. Herein, the evolution of various forms of echocardiogra...

Molecules are the basic and most important players of life. Molecules are composed of atoms, and each molecule has two main specifications or inheritances that are structures, and in biomedical applications, biological function. This dichotomy can be compared to living organisms or humans whom possess genotype and phenotype. Each of the two main inherited elements contains a variety of feat...

We introduce the notion of uniform number of a graph. The  uniform number of a connected graph $G$ is the least cardinality of a nonempty subset $M$ of the vertex set of $G$ for which the function $f_M: M^crightarrow mathcal{P}(X) - {emptyset}$ defined as $f_M(x) = {D(x, y): y in M}$ is a constant function, where $D(x, y)$ is the detour distance between $x$ and $y$ in $G$ and $mathcal{P}(X)$ ...
