Accelerating the Distributed Multiplication Protocol with Applications to the Distributed Miller-Rabin Primality Test
In the light of information security it is highly desirable to avoid a “single point of failure” because this would be an attractive target for attackers. Cryptographic protocols for distributed computations a...

Neural Networks for Two-Group Classification Problems with Monotonicity Hints
Neural networks are competitive tools for classification problems. In this context, a hint is any piece of prior side information about the classification. Common examples are monotonicity hints. The present p...

Assignment of human genes for β2 and β4 subunits of voltage-dependent Ca2+ channels to chromosomes 10p12 and 2q22-q23
We have used human β2 and β4 cDNA probes to map the genes encoding two isoforms of the regulatory β subunit of voltage-activated Ca2+ channels, viz. CACNB2 (β2) and CACNB4 (β4), to human chromosomes 10p12 and 2q...

Protein kinase C regulation of cardiac calcium channels expressed in Xenopus oocytes
L-Type cardiac Ca2+ channels expressed in Xenopus oocyte were studied following rat heart ribonucleic acid, messenger (mRNA) injection. We demonstrate that exogenous Ca2+ channels are sensitive to intracellular r...

Cyclic-AMP-dependent phosphorylation modulates the stereospecific activation of cardiac Ca channels by Bay K 8644
Voltage-gated Ca channels have been reported to be regulated by membrane potential, phosphorylation and binding of specific agonists or antagonists such as dihydropyridines. We report here evidence that cyclic...

A Model of Laminated Composite Plates Assuring the Continuity of Displacements and Transverse Shear Stresses
In this paper, we describe a two dimensional model of plates which takes into account a parabolic variation of the transverse shear strains through thikness, so that there is no need to use shear correction co...

On oxygen diffusion in a spherical cell with Michaelis-Menten oxygen uptake kinetics
This paper demonstrates that there is one and only one solution to a non-linear singular two-point boundary-value problem which describes oxygen diffusion in a spherical cell. Previous authors have calculated ...

Comparing routines for the numerical solution of initial value problems of ordinary differential equations in multiple shooting
The numerical solution of two-point boundary value problems and problems of optimal control by shooting techniques requires integration routines. By solving 15 real-life problems four well-known intergrators a...
