TL;DR: The FEBS Letters experiment and the BioCreative II.5 challenge generated the first quantitative data to support the debate on ways to supplement publications with structured information.
Abstract: Current publications lack structured representations of the entities and relationships they report on. As a consequence, information retrieval is hampered and much of the scientific literature is poorly accessible unless it is organized in domain specific databases by expert curation1. However, manual curation is a slow process and databases lag behind, failing to cover much of the published information. The combined effort of the IMEx (imex.sourceforge.net) group only deals with approximately 20% of the estimated 10,000 protein interaction articles published yearly (see Supplementary Material). To explore new publication strategies, the FEBS Letters experiment asked authors to supply structured annotations for their publications that were linked to databases with the intervention professional bio-curators2. The BioCreative II.5 challenge then compared these annotations provided by authors and curators to automated systems3. Combining these two efforts has generated the first quantitative data to support the debate on ways to supplement publications with structured information.

01 Sep 2016TL;DR: Three case studies explore organizational attempts to provide usable security products, which assume that when security functions are more usable, people are more likely to use them, leading to an improvement in overall security.
Abstract: Usable security assumes that when security functions are more usable, people are more likely to use them, leading to an improvement in overall security Existing software design and engineering processes provide little guidance for leveraging this in the development of applications Three case studies explore organizational attempts to provide usable security products

TL;DR: A new version of the Quadratic Sieve algorithm, used for factoring large integers, has recently emerged that not only considerably improves the original Quadratics Sieve but also adds features that ideally suit a parallel implementation.
Abstract: A new version of the Quadratic Sieve algorithm, used for factoring large integers, has recently emerged. The new algorithm, called the Multiple Polynomial Quadratic Sieve, not only considerably improves the original Quadratic Sieve but also adds features that ideally suit a parallel implementation. The parallel implementation used for the new algorithm, a novel remote batching system, is also described.

TL;DR: This article analyzed a set of 18,520 ultrafast black swan events that were uncovered in stock-price movements between 2006 and 2011, and provided empirical evidence for, and an accompanying theory of, an abrupt system-wide transition from a mixed human-machine phase to a new all machine phase characterized by frequent black-swan events with ultrafast durations.
Abstract: Society’s drive toward ever faster socio-technical systems, means that there is an urgent need to understand the threat from ‘black swan’ extreme events that might emerge. On 6 May 2010, it took just five minutes for a spontaneous mix of human and machine interactions in the global trading cyberspace to generate an unprecedented system-wide Flash Crash. However, little is known about what lies ahead in the crucial sub-second regime where humans become unable to respond or intervene sufficiently quickly. Here we analyze a set of 18,520 ultrafast black swan events that we have uncovered in stock-price movements between 2006 and 2011. We provide empirical evidence for, and an accompanying theory of, an abrupt system-wide transition from a mixed human-machine phase to a new all-machine phase characterized by frequent black swan events with ultrafast durations (

01 Nov 1989TL;DR: The authors provide a detailed description of a discrete-event simulation model of the National Airspace System developed as part of the NASPAC project and present the results of an initial analysis of the possible impact of a proposed new airport at Denver, CO.
Abstract: The US Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) has undertaken an effort to model and analyze the performance of the National Airspace System (NAS), a system that encompasses the nationwide airport and airspace network in the United States. This effort and the resulting capability, called the National Airspace System Performance Analysis Capability (NASPAC), are based on operations research and computer-modeling techniques. The authors provide a detailed description of a discrete-event simulation model of the NAS developed as part of the NASPAC project. Special emphasis is placed on the model's representation of the airport and airspace entities that constitute the NAS and the airspace user demand. The authors present the results of an initial analysis of the possible impact of a proposed new airport at Denver, CO, and conclude with a discussion of the potential future direction of NASPAC. >
