We analyzed a network structure formed by monetary transactions between financial institutions. We present a procedure to extract a network structure from a set of records of transactions. The extracted network has self-similarity described by a power-law degree distribution. We also introduce a...

Mean field approximation of a large collection of FitzHugh–Nagumo excitable neurons with noise and all-to-all coupling with explicit time-delays, modelled by N≫1 stochastic delay-differential equations is derived. The resulting approximation contains only two deterministic delay-differential...

We introduce an analytical model for population dynamics with intra-specific competition, mutation and assortative mating as basic ingredients. The set of equations that describes the time evolution of population size in a mean-field approximation may be decoupled. We find a phase transition...

This progress report summarizes our research activities under our consensus grant. In year four of the grant, we continued to capitalize on and benefit from historical events which drove our early emphasis on group process studies. Following our work on various procedures for bringing together...

As part of a study aimed at estimating suburban highway needs for year 2005, models were developed for forecasting daily vehicle miles of travel (DVMT) for urban areas and its distribution by highway functional class, urban location, and urban area size. A regression model combining both time...

The Department of Energy's (DOE) Small Business Program is characterized by its diligent involvement in the procurement process to enhance participation by small businesses, small disadvantaged businesses, labor surplus area firms, and women-owned businesses. The DOE's primary means of securing...

The Community-Level Impacts Projection System includes a set of techniques for providing detailed advance information required for rational planning. The computerized system generates reports which enable the user: to describe the energy development activity in terms of its employment demands...

This paper presents an assessment of the radiation dose to the world population and the associated potential health effects from three scenarios of /sup 14/C releases by the nuclear industry between 1975 and 2020. Measures of health impact are derived from source terms through the use of a...

This report documents Reynolds Electrical Engineering Co., Inc., analysis of all major job groups with explanations if minorities and females are underutilized in any one or more job group. Goals and timetables have been developed and good faith efforts are directed to correct any deficiencies....
