Cancer prevention as biomodulation: targeting

to the inner PM leaflet, during apoptosis. Here we show that PS externalization is an early and widespread event during apoptosis of a variety of murine and human cell types, regardless of the initiating stimulus, and precedes several other events normally associated with this mode of cell death. We also

A motor theory of speech perception, initially proposed to account for results of early experiments with synthetic speech, is now extensively revised to accommodate recent findings, and to relate the assumptions of the theory to those that might be made about other perceptual modes. According

or pain in the laboratory. An advantage of laboratory experiments is that extraneous aspects of an experience can be controlled, and the unique effect of a stimulus on individuals' experiences can be evaluated. Participants in many experiments in psychology and in consumer research, for example

) in his use of the stimulus trace to explain serial phenomena. Again, Underwood (1949) has suggested that forgetting occurs during the acquisition process. But these theoretical considerations have not led to empirical investigation. Hull (1952) quantified the stimulus trace on data concerned with the CS

to the diffusion model. The connectionist learning mechanisms were unable to account for initial learning or abrupt changes in stimulus probability. The results provide an advance in the development of the diffusion model and show that the long tradition of reaction time research and theory is a fertile domain

-forward views based on inhibitory contour interactions. From the time a stimulus first enters the eye to the time a percept emerges into consciousness, the initial stimulus has been coded at several levels in the visual system. One of the main goals in studying visual information processing is to specify

By using a hybrid scheduling algorithm consisting of static offline scheduling and dynamic online scheduling, hard deadlines can be guaranteed, while achieving optimal resource utilization by soft real-time activities. This paper introduces a medium access control (MAC) protocol for a CSMA bus, which supports the hybrid scheduling of hard and soft real-time messages on the bus. The key issues considered here, are distinguishing hard and soft real-time constraints, achieving high resource utilization, and avoiding single points of failure by a symmetric distributed medium access control scheme.

experiments are used to illustrate experimental manipulations of three components: stimulus difficulty affects the quality of information on which a decision is based; instructions emphasizing either speed or accuracy affect the criterial amounts of information that a subject requires before initiating a
