TL;DR: The notion of shareability network is introduced, which allows to model the collective benefits of sharing as a function of passenger inconvenience, and to efficiently compute optimal sharing strategies on massive datasets, and demonstrates the feasibility of a shareable taxi service in New York City.

TL;DR: The effect of coupling through intercell signaling in a population of Escherichia coli cells expressing a synthetic biological clock is studied to predict that a diverse and noisy community of such genetic oscillators interacting through a quorum-sensing mechanism should self-synchronize in a robust way, leading to a substantially improved global rhythmicity in the system.

TL;DR: The first exact results about the stability, dynamics, and bifurcations of chimera states are obtained by analyzing a minimal model consisting of two interacting populations of oscillators.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors generalize the Kuramoto model of coupled oscillators to allow time-delayed interactions and derive exact formulas for the stability boundaries of the incoherent and synchronized states, as a function of the delay.

TL;DR: The results show that circadian period in the whole animal is determined by averaging widely dispersed periods of individual clock cells, and demonstrate that the tau mutation affects circadian function in a cell-autonomous manner.
