Online packet buffering
This thesis treats several buffering problems that occur in routers or switches of computer networks. We develop and investigate algorithms for temporary data packet buffering, where information about the packets is not completely known in advance, but arrives by and by over time. In the classical …

Moisture Buffering in the Indoor Environment
Moisture buffering in the indoor environment is the ability, through absorption and desorption, of surface materials to attenuate the moisture variations of the indoor air. Moisture buffering plays an important role in understanding the risks for biological growth in surface materials in the indoor …

Buffering Effect of Relational Support in African American Marriages
… models. In the first model we investigated the buffering effect of relational support between racial discrimination and health. In the second model we tested the buffering effect of relational support between racial discrimination and marital stability. Findings suggest that relational support …

Effects of buffering agents on high-intensity exercise performance and capacity
… on muscle function, and thus exercise tolerance. Buffering agents are commonly used to enhance exercise performance and capacity. Two such agents, β-alanine and sodium bicarbonate, increase intracellular and extracellular buffering capacity, which could contribute to an improved performance and …

Human canalization and female growth buffering with Drosophila as a model organism
Child health is a central concern in populations experiencing economic, environmental, and nutritional stress. Adversity, however, does not affect individuals uniformly as preferential child investment and underlying biological processes may lead to instances of differential growth outcomes among …

Mechanisms of Genome Buffering and Cell Fate Coordination in Adult Tissue Homeostasis
Self-renewal competency of adult stem cells is essential for tissue homeostasis. The corruption of genes essential for genome preservation or for niche-stem cell interactions frequently results in loss of stem cell viability and disease. The two components of my thesis focus on understanding adult …

FACTORS AFFECTING RATES OF SOCIAL BUFFERING IN JUVENILE RHESUS MACAQUES (Macaca mulatta)
… genetic and experiential contributions to social buffering between juvenile non human primates. A second aim was to investigate the role of behavioral displays during social buffering, in order to explain social buffering deficits in primates with a history of early social deprivation (Winslow et …

Mitochondrial ATP production and energy-buffering in the human pathogen Trypanosoma brucei
… The phosphoarginine/arginine kinase energy (ATP) buffering system of T. brucei consists of three different arginine kinase isoforms, i.e. TbAK1-3 (Chapter IV). The TbAK1-3 isoforms are localised in different subcellular compartments, here respectively the flagellum, glycosome and cytosol, and are …

Social Buffering by God: Can Prayer Reduce Stress in an Experimental Setting?
… lower self-reported stress. However, this social buffering may not extend to a perceived presence, such as a higher deity. The current experiment examined whether prayer could reduce stress responses (blood pressure, heart rate, and self-reported anxiety levels) during a stressful situation and …

Scheduling in two-machine robotic cell : an optimal algorithm based on buffering
… sequencing robot moves, sequencing parts, buffering, and cell design. This thesis addresses the problem of sequencing robot moves in a two machine manufacturing cell in the presence of a buffer. We develop cycle time formulae using a state space approach. We adopt analytical methods for …

Perceiving the World in Sacred Terms: Its Buffering Function Against Death Anxiety
The project tests the hypothesis that the tendency to perceive the secular world in sacred terms functions as a buffer against death anxiety and the possibly destructive effects of death anxiety, such as materialism. The sacred is associated with the qualities of transcendence (perception of a …

Parents With Adverse Childhood Experiences: Exploring Buffering Effects Of A Brief Couple Intervention
Adults with Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) report greater relational distress and lower relationship satisfaction. Enhanced risk amongst those with ACEs may be due to increased stress sensitization. The transition to parenthood (and years thereafter) is therefore an important window for …

Mathematical modelling of all-optical buffering for ultrafast optical time division multiplexed networks.
… projects, their use in short length (< 500m) buffering architectures is not prevalent in the literature. This work finds a niche in this domain where the physical effects of the buffer components (e.g. optical switches) have not been previously documented. In order to optimise the bit error …

PLAYBACK BUFFERING AND CONTROL FOR LINEAR MULTIPLE INPUT MULTIPLE OUTPUT NETWORK CONTROL SYSTEMS
In this dissertation, we derive a generalized switched system model for a control strategy aimed at stabilizing linear stable Network Control Systems (NCS). In some special cases, plant states can be brought to a desired set-point by applying a single control. For such systems, we mathematically …
