We study stochastic interaction network models whereby a finite population of agents, identified with the nodes of a graph, update their states in response to pairwise interactions with their neighbors as well as spontaneous mutations. These include the main epidemic models, such as the Susceptible-Infected -Susceptible, the Susceptible-Infected-Recovered, and the Susceptible-Infected-Recovered-Su
A charge sampling mixer with embedded and programmable filter function is described, which is not based on the conventional sub-sampling but the proposed bandpass charge sampling (BPCS) principle. A BPCS circuit samples a radio signal by integrating the weighted current of the clocked radio signal in n clock cycles. The large sampling capacitor used in the circuit results in low noise and low char
The base of the world economic pyramid, generally called the base of the pyramid (BoP), consists of four billion people with average daily income of four dollars. Over the past several years, the design and development of products and services for BoP markets has been investigated by several authors from different disciplines. While some authors suggest a systems approach to design and develop pro
The CSF levels of somatostatin-LI (SLI), neuropeptide Y (NPY-LI) and Delta Sleep Inducing Peptide (DSIP-LI) have been measured in patients with dementia of Alzheimer type (DAT) and dementia with frontotemporal degeneration of non-Alzheimer type (FTD). The distribution pattern of cortical degeneration differs between these two types of dementia. DAT shows degeneration of mainly temporo-parietal and
