Handling heterogeneity in networked virtual environments
(MIT PRESS, 2003-02-01)
The availability of inexpensive and powerful graphics cards as well as fast Internet connections make networked virtual environments viable for millions of users and many new applications. It is therefore necessary to cope ...
Intratumor heterogeneity index of breast carcinomas based on DNA methylation profiles
(BioMed Central, 2019-04)
Background: Cancer cells evolve and constitute heterogeneous populations that fluctuate in space and time and are subjected to selection generating intratumor heterogeneity. This phenomenon is determined by the acquisition ...
Simple epidemic network model for highly heterogeneous populations
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2020-02)
Network models for disease transmission and dynamics are popular because they are among the simplest agent-based models. Highly heterogeneous populations (in the number of contacts) may be modeled by networks with long-tailed ...
The epidemic threshold theorem with social and contact heterogeneity
(SPIE-INT SOC OPTICAL ENGINEERING, 2008-03-17)
The threshold theorem of an epidemic SIR model was compared when infectious and susceptible individuals have homogeneous mixing and heterogeneous social status and when individuals of random networks have contact heterogeneity. ...
An optimal approach to the multiple-depot heterogeneous vehicle routing problem with time window and capacity constraints
(Planta Piloto de Ingeniería Química, 2003-10)
The vehicle routing problem (VRP) has become a crucial industrial issue for its impact on product distribution costs. Though quite important in practice, the time-constrained version of the VRP accounting for several types ...
Virtual elements and zero thickness interface-based approach for fracture analysis of heterogeneous materials
(Elsevier Science Sa, 2018-08)
A novel procedure for analyzing fracture processes in quasi-brittle materials and consisting in combining the discrete crack approach by means of interface elements with the Virtual Element Method is proposed and developed ...
Arduous Institutionalization in Argentina’s SSH: Expansion, Asymmetries and Segmented Circuits of Recognition
(Palgrave Macmillan, 2018)
Argentina is an interesting case to explore the institutionalization and professionalization of the social sciences and humanities outside the traditional centers of excellence. It is currently a dynamic and dominantly ...
Context-dependency and anthropogenic effects on individual plant–frugivore networks
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2018-07)
Anthropogenic activities, such as grazing by domestic animals, are considered drivers of environmental changes that may influence the structure of interaction networks. The study of individual-based networks allows testing ...
Un Enfoque Centrado en el Consumo Energético para la Planificación de Tareas Recurso-Intensivas Empleando Dispositivos Móviles como Proveedores de RecursosAn energy-aware scheduling approach for resource-intensive jobs using smart mobile devices as resource providers
(2018-03-28)
The ever-growing adoption of smart mobile devices is a worldwide phenomenon that positions smart-phones and tablets as primary devices for communication and Internet access. In addition to this, the computing capabilities ...
