Chemokines are chemotactic cytokines that regulate cell migration and are thought to play an important role in a broad range of inflammatory diseases. The availability of chemokine receptor blockers makes them an important therapeutic target. In vitro, chemokines are shown to modulate neurotransmission. However, it is not very clear if chemokines play a role in behavior and cognition. Here we evaluated...
Broadband wireless infrastructure networks are increasingly becoming common in metro areas. To improve spatial bandwidth usage, the nodes in such networks employ directional transmissions over multiple orthogonal channels. In this paper, we study the benefits of sharing channel bandwidth across multiple flows. Every connection is assumed to require a bandwidth that is half of the channel bandwidth...
Multi-channel wireless networks are increasingly being employed as infrastructure networks in metro areas. In addition, nodes in these networks employ directional antennas to improve spatial throughput. In such networks, given a source and destination, it is of interest to compute a path and channel assignment on every link in the path such that the path bandwidth is the same as that of the link bandwidth...
In this paper, we analyze the blocking performance of a channel assignment scheme in a multi-channel wireless line network. We assume that the existing calls in the network may be rearranged on different channels to accommodate an incoming call. The analysis is limited to single-hop calls with different transmission ranges. Through extensive simulations, we demonstrate that the developed analytical...
In this paper, we show that minimizing the product of path lengths results in minimizing the probability of connection failure between a source and destination given two links have failed in the network. We, therefore, analyze the problem of finding disjoint paths between two nodes with the minimum path length product. We formulate the problem as a mixed integer quadratic programming (MIQP) problem...
