DNA computation by Wang, Qi Wen.

“…The project aims to develop 4 different types of DNA computational algorithms corresponding to 4 different types of graphical combinatorial problems based on the latest research – shortest path problem with equivalent and inequivalent edge length, shortest spanning tree and assignment problem. Each developed DNA computational algorithm comes along with independent analysis section which explains the working principle lying behind the developed algorithm. …”

Tropical forest clearance impacts biodiversity and function whereas logging changes structure by Marsh, C, Turner, EG, Blonder, BW, Hemprich-Bennett, D, Riutta, T, Slade, EM, Lewis, O, Hector, A

“…We present an extensive ecosystem analysis of the impacts of logging and conversion of tropical forest to oil palm from a large-scale study in Borneo, synthesizing responses from 82 variables categorized into four ecological levels spanning a broad suite of ecosystem properties: (i) structure and environment, (ii) species traits, (iii) biodiversity, and (iv) ecosystem functions. …”

Quantitative CLTs on the Poisson space via Skorohod estimates and p-Poincaré inequalities by Trauthwein, T

“…We also apply our techniques to derive quantitative CLTs for edge functionals of the Gilbert graph, of the k-Nearest Neighbour graph and of the Radial Spanning Tree. In most cases, even the qualitative CLTs are new.…”

Mean square consensus of multi-agent systems over fading networks with directed graphs by Xu, Liang, Zheng, Jianying, Xiao, Niao, Xie, Lihua

“…It is then shown that the mean square consensusability is solely determined by the edge state dynamics on a directed spanning tree. As a result, sufficient conditions are provided for mean square consensus over fading networks with directed graphs in terms of fading parameters, the network topology and the agent dynamics. …”

The Viking Great Army north of the Tyne: A Viking camp in Northumberland? by Kershaw, J, Jarman, C, Weber, H, Horton, M

“…We argue that the site was strategically situated and long-lived, with evidence for occupation spanning the Roman to later medieval periods. We note, in particular, indications of high-status early medieval activity, which stand out in a Northumbrian context. …”

On the higher-order edge toughness of a graph by Chen, C.C., Koh, K.M., Peng, Y.H.

“…Besides giving the of the cth-order edge toughness τc(G) of a graph G, we prove that 'τc(G)≥k if and only if G has k edge-disjoint spanning forests with exactly c components'. We also study the 'balancity' of a graph G of order p and size q, which is defined as the smallest positive integer c such that τc(G) = p/(p-c). © 1993.…”
