The Journal of the Operational Research Society, Vol. 55, No. 12 (Dec., 2004), pp. 1275-1280 (6 pages) The fixed-charge problem is a non-linear programming problem of practical interest in business ...

Plerixafor, a reversible CXCR4 antagonist, significantly increases the yield of CD34 + peripheral blood cells in randomized studies, thereby enabling more patients to proceed to autologous transplant.

As the world races to build artificial superintelligence, one maverick bioengineer is testing how much unprogrammed intelligence may already be lurking in our simplest algorithms to determine whether ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract A modified version of the CLEAN deconvolution technique, incorporating a noise model, has been tested on simulated HST data. This ...

Here's a simple algorithm that uses conventional microcontroller blocks to control commercially available H-bridges to properly commutate a bipolar stepper motor through a microstepping profile.

Inspired by a theoretical model of particles moving around on a chessboard, new robot swarm research shows that, as magnetic interactions increase, dispersed 'dumb robots' can abruptly gather in large ...

The Lamport algorithm for generating and applying one-time passwords (OTPs) is a simple solution that provides great value in the right context. Not only can the Lamport OTP scheme provide effective ...

“To me, an algorithm is any piece of automated code that accepts some number of variables and data, [then] uses those variables and data to make decisions. But that’s the boring computer science ...
