Many useful types of signals are synchronous, meaning that they use bit patterns that are transmitted using a built-in, fixed-frequency clock signal. Uncompressed digital video and audio signals are ...

Wireless mesh networks have become increasingly popular based on their many advantages, but the topology can have an Achilles’ heel that is becoming painfully apparent: The network may fail to scale ...

Synchronous firing peaks at levels greatly exceeding background activity have recently been reported in neocortical tissue. A small subset of neurons is dominant in a large fraction of the peaks. To ...

All network elements in a Synchronous Optical Network (SONET) must be synchronized to the same clock in order to prevent data loss. This common clock is a highly accurate free-running cesium clock or ...

A Japanese research team has successfully reproduced the human neural circuit in vitro using multi-region miniature organs ...
