TLDR
By comparing IRP with existing solutions via simulation- based experiments and real-world deployment, it is shown that IRP achieves a better reliability, while incurs fewer structural adjustments on the multicast overlay, thus, providing a superior overall performance.Abstract:
Reliability of tree-like multicast overlays caused by nodes' abrupt failures is considered as one of the major problems for the Internet application-layer media streaming service (1). In this paper, we address this problem by designing a distributed and light- weighted protocol named the instantaneous reliability oriented protocol (IRP). Unlike most of existing empirical solutions, we first define the overlay reliability problem formally, and propose a protocol containing a node joining algorithm (IRP-Join), a node preemption algorithm (IRP-Preempt), and a node switching algorithm (IRP-Switch) for reactively constructing and repairing the overlay, as well as proactively maintaining the overlay. With the formal problem presentation, we set up a paradigm for solving the overlay reliability problem by theoretically proving the effectiveness of our algorithms. Moreover, by comparing IRP with existing solutions via simulation- based experiments and real-world deployment, we show that IRP achieves a better reliability, while incurs fewer structural adjustments on the multicast overlay, thus, providing a superior overall performance.

TL;DR: This trial suggests that levetiracetam may be a valid alternative to CBZ in poststroke seizures, particularly in terms of efficacy and safety, and shows that LEV has significant advantages over CBZ on cognitive functions.

TL;DR: Intravenous desmopressin was well tolerated and improved platelet activity after acute intracerebral hemorrhage, and larger studies are needed to determine its potential effects on reducing hematoma growth versus platelet transfusion or placebo.

TL;DR: Preclinical and retrospective clinical data indicate that glyburide, a selective inhibitor of sulfonylurea receptor 1-transient receptor potential melastatin 4, is effective in preventing edema and improving outcome after focal ischemia.

Beyond BOLD: optimizing functional imaging in stroke populations.
TL;DR: It is shown that the basic assumption of neurovascular coupling on which BOLD‐fMRI relies does not capture the complex changes arising from stroke, both pathological and recovery related, and one promising alternative to event‐related fMRI is a resting‐state‐derived functional connectivity approach.
