The performance of computer networks relies on how bandwidth is shared among different flows. Fair resource allocation is a challenging problem particularly when the flows evolve over time. To address this issue, bandwidth sharing techniques that quickly react to the traffic fluctuations are of interest, especially in large scale settings with...

The α-fair resource allocation problem has received remarkable attention and has been studied in numerous application fields. Several algorithms have been proposed in the context of α-fair resource sharing to distributively compute its value. However, little work has been done on its structural properties. In this work, we present a lower bound...

To optimize routing of flows in datacenters, SDN controllers receive a packet-in message whenever a new flow appears in the network. Unfortunately, flow arrival rates can peak to millions per second [1], impairing the ability of controllers to treat them on time. Flow scheduling, e.g. [2], copes with such sheer numbers by segmenting the traffic...

Variants in Filamin C (FLNC) gene may cause either cardiomyopathies or different myopathies. We describe a family affected by a distal myopathy with autosomal dominant inheritance. The onset of the disease was in the third decade with gait impairment due to distal leg weakness. Subsequently, the disease progressed with an involvement of...

Congenital myasthenic syndromes (CMS) are genetic disorders due to mutations in genes encoding proteins involved in the neuromuscular junction structure and function. CMS usually present in young children, but perinatal and adult onset has been reported. Clinical presentation is highly heterogeneous, ranging from mild symptoms to severe...

Mutations in the MTM1 gene cause X-linked myotubular myopathy (XLMTM), characterized by neonatal hypotonia and respiratory failure, and are responsible for a premature mortality in affected males. Female carriers are usually asymptomatic but they may present with muscular weakness because of a hypothesized skewed pattern of X-chromosome...
