A predefined channel coefficients library for vehicle-to-vehicle communications
It is noticeable that most of VANETs communications tests are assessed through simulation. In a majority of simulation results, the physical layer is often affected by an apparent lack of realism. Therefore, vehicular channel model has become a critical issue in the field of intelligent transport systems (ITS). To overcome the lack of realism problem, a more robust channel model is needed to reflect the reality. This paper provides an open access, predefined channel coefficients library. The library is based on 2x2 and 4x4 Multiple – Input – Multiple – Output (MIMO) systems in V2V communications, using a spatial channel model extended SCME which will help to reduce the overall simulation time. In addition, it provides a more realistic channel model for V2V communications; considering: over ranges of speeds, distances, multipath signals, sub-path signals, different angle of arrivals, different angle departures, no line of sight and line of sight. An intensive evaluation process has taken place to validate the library and acceptance results are produced. Having an open access predefined library, enables the researcher at relevant communities to test and evaluate several complicated vehicular communications scenarios in a wider manners with less time and efforts
Gene expression for simulation of biological tissue
BioDynaMo is a biological processes simulator developed by an international
community of researchers and software engineers working closely with
neuroscientists. The authors have been working on gene expression, i.e. the
process by which the heritable information in a gene - the sequence of DNA base
pairs - is made into a functional gene product, such as protein or RNA.
Typically, gene regulatory models employ either statistical or analytical
approaches, being the former already well understood and broadly used. In this
paper, we utilize analytical approaches representing the regulatory networks by
means of differential equations, such as Euler and Runge-Kutta methods. The two
solutions are implemented and have been submitted for inclusion in the
BioDynaMo project and are compared for accuracy and performance
