We consider a priority cell scheduling in the following scenario. High-speed cell networks accommodate constant bit rate (CBR) streams from real-time sources and unspecified bit rate (UBR) streams from non real-time sources. The real-time traffic requires guarantees of its delay time. On the other hand, the non real-time traffic is relatively tolerable to its delay time. We obtain the queueing delay distribution of cells from CBR streams. Further the average queueing delay of cells from UBR streams is obtained in some special cases. We provide some numerical results and discuss the effectiveness of quality-of-service (QoS) guarantees based on the statistical bound and the influence of UBR streams on the system performance.

From a sequence {a(i)}(i greater than or equal to 0) over GF(p) with period p(n)-1 we can obtain periodic sequence {<(a)over tilde (i)>}(i greater than or equal to 0) with period p(n)-2 by deleting one symbol at the end of each period. We will give the bounds (upper bound and lower bound) of linear complexity of {<(a)over tilde (i)>}(i greater than or equal to 0) and {a(i)((j))}(i greater than or equal to 0), j is an element of GF(p)\{0}. For a binary m-sequence {a(i)}(i greater than or equal to 0) with period 2(n)-1, n-1 a prime, we wil give the explicit formula for the charasteristic polynomial of {<(a)over tilde (i)>}(i greater than or equal to 0).

In pair-pulse stimulation experiments, pair-pulse depression (PPD) of the population spike (PS) occurred at intervals shorter than 20 ms in the dentate gyrus in guinea pig hippocampal slices. Application of 50 mu M carbachol resulted in an increase in the test PS amplitude and caused suppression of PPD. This suppression was antagonized by atropine sulfate, a muscarinic receptor antagonist. Carbachol at 50 mu M induced intermittent bursts of theta-like activity (TLA). We compared the pair-pulse index (PPI) during TLA with that in a rest period between bursts of TLA. The PPI was defined as the ratio of the amplitude of the test PS to that of the conditioning PS. The PPI during TLA were significantly larger than that during the rest period, although there were no significant differences in the conditioning PS amplitude and the test pEPSP slope. When TLA was induced, the PPI during the rest period was increased by bicuculline. The PPI during TLA did not change significantly with the drug. The increase by bicuculline in the PPI during the rest period was caused by increase in the test PS amplitude. PPD can occur due to inhibition of granule cell activity by inhibitory neurons. Our findings suggest that the action of inhibitory neurons on granule cell activity is suppressed by activation of muscarinic receptors, with stronger suppression during TLA than during the rest period between bursts of TLA.

This paper describes an approach to designing-fuzzy if-then rules for the fuzzy-controlled static var compensator (FCSVC) in a three-phase electric power system. In general, it is very difficult to control the rms line voltage in the three-phase ac circuit. We propose the FCSVC system to control the voltage. FCSVC is an rms line voltage stabilizer using three static var compensators (SVC) which are controlled by a fuzzy logic controller (FLC). Moreover, we propose an easier and more efficient approach to designing the fuzzy if-then rules of FCSVC. The effectiveness of the FCSVC described in this paper is verified by the experimental results. (C) Elsevier science Inc. 1997.

Cholinergic input to the hippocampus originates in the septum and diagonal band. Guinea pig hippocampal slices in a bath of carbachol, a cholinergic agonist, displayed different patterns of rhythmical activities depending on the carbachol concentration. Exposure to 50 or 100 mu M led to intermittent induction of theta-like activities (TLAs). Long-term potentiation (LTP), induced by tetanus, was facilitated at concentrations within the optimum range for generating TLAs. This facilitation was blocked by the muscarinic receptor antagonist atropine. Augmentation of LTP during TLAs was greater than that during the rest period of TLAs which, in turn, was greater than that induced without activation of the muscarinic receptors. These results suggest that there are two muscarinic facilitation processes of LTP, one dependent on and the other independent of TLAs, with the former being more easily facilitated than the latter.

In the frog optic tectum, the spatiotemporal pattern of neuronal activity evoked by electrical stimulation of the optic tract was examined by means of a current source density (CSD) analysis. The CSD depth profile was highly reproducible in different experiments. In all seven CSD profiles, three current sinks A, B, and D were observed in the retinorecipient layers. Four out of the seven profiles show additional two sinks C and E below the retinorecipient layers. Very small and short lasting sinks related to afferent fiber activities precede sinks A and B by about 1 ms, which could be accounted for by monosynaptic delay, in the corresponding depth region. The earliest prominent sink A at the bottom of the retinorecipient layers reflects only excitatory monosynaptic activities derived from R3 and/or R4 retinal ganglion cells. The second prominent sink B in the superficial retinorecipient layer is composed partly of excitatory monosynaptic activity from medium-sized myelinated optic fibers. It may involve excitatory monosynaptic activity from unmyelinated optic fibers and further polysynaptic activity. The fourth prominent sink D in the intermediate retinorecipient layer partially reflects excitatory monosynaptic activity derived from unmyelinated optic fibers. It may also involve further polysynaptic activity. In contrast with these three sinks, the third prominent sink C and fifth sink E exclusively reflect intratectal polysynaptic activity that has not been reported in any previous CSD studies in the frog optic tectum. These sinks almost overlap spatially in the tectal layer. We also measured the intratectal resistance changes and computed inhomogeneous CSD depth profiles to show that the results from homogeneous CSD computation assuming constant conductivity are valid for our present study. Finally, we compared the present results with previously reported CSD studies on the frog optic tectum and discuss consistencies and discrepancies among these experiments.
