Caching and Neutrality

Aikaterini Argyraki, Pavlos Nikolopoulos, Muhammad Abdullah

We are used to defining network neutrality as absence of traffic differentiation, like policing or shaping. These mechanisms, however, are often not what determines end-users’ quality of experience (QoE). Most content today is accessed through edge caches, ...

True scale-free networks hidden by finite size effects

Andrea Rinaldo, Amos Maritan, Samir Suweis

We analyze about 200 naturally occurring networks with distinct dynamical origins to formally test whether the commonly assumed hypothesis of an underlying scale-free structure is generally viable. This has recently been questioned on the basis of statisti ...

Social practices in teacher knowledge creation and innovation adoption: a large-scale study in an online instructional design community for inquiry learning

Denis Gillet, Maria Jesus Rodriguez Triana

Social practices are assumed to play an important role in the evolution of new teaching and learning methods. Teachers internalize knowledge developed in their communities through interactions with peers and experts while solving problems or co-creating ma ...

Systematic model reduction captures the dynamics of extrinsic noise in biochemical subnetworks

Barbara Bravi

We consider the general problem of describing the dynamics of subnetworks of larger biochemical reaction networks, e.g., protein interaction networks involving complex formation and dissociation reactions. We propose the use of model reduction strategies t ...
