The implementation of high-fidelity simulation is often impeded by the steep learning curve for faculty and limited availability of simulation space for students. To increase faculty skill in developing simulations and student opportunity for learning through simulation, a method for Internet broadcast of simulations focused on end-of-life care was developed. The author focuses on computer technology related to simulation; the methods described are applicable to many types of staff development and nursing education.

Joint suppression method for range-Doppler ambiguity sidelobes in DTMB-based passive bistatic radar.
Sci Rep

The 705 Research Institute, China State Shipbuilding Corporation Limited, Xi'an, 710077, China.
To mitigate the impact of the suboptimal ambiguity function of digital television terrestrial multimedia broadcasting (DTMB) signal, used as the illuminator of opportunity in passive bistatic radar, this paper provides a detailed analysis of the ambiguity function characteristics based on the physical structure of the DTMB signal frame. It elucidates the mechanisms behind intra-frame and inter-frame range sidelobes, as well as Doppler sidelobes. Building on this analysis, a novel joint method for suppressing range-Doppler ambiguity sidelobes is proposed to achieve unambiguous target detection.

Consensus algorithms play a critical role in maintaining the consistency of blockchain data, directly affecting the system's security and stability, and are used to determine the binary consensus of whether proposals are correct. With the development of blockchain-related technologies, social choice issues such as Bitcoin scaling and main chain forks, as well as the proliferation of decentralized autonomous organization (DAO) applications based on blockchain technology, require consensus algorithms to reach consensus on a specific proposal among multiple proposals based on node preferences, thereby addressing the multi-value consensus problem. However, existing consensus algorithms, including Practical Byzantine Fault Tolerance (PBFT), do not support nodes expressing preferences.

Circadian rhythms in mammals arise from the spatiotemporal synchronization of ~20,000 neuronal clocks in the Suprachiasmatic Nucleus (SCN). While anatomical, molecular, and genetic approaches have revealed diverse cell types and signaling mechanisms, the network wiring that enables SCN cells to communicate and synchronize remains unclear. To overcome the challenges of revealing functional connectivity from fixed tissue, we developed MITE (Mutual Information & Transfer Entropy), an information theory approach that infers directed cell-cell connections with high fidelity.

Here we consider the communications tactics appropriate for a group of agents that need to "swarm" together in a challenging communications environment. Swarms are increasingly important in a number of applications, including land, air, sea and space exploration, and their constituent agents could be satellites, drones, or other autonomous vehicles. A particularly difficult problem is to autonomously connect a swarm of agents together in a situation where stringent communication constraints are present, whether due to a need for stealth, restricted on-board power, external requirements to avoid certain broadcast directions, or equipment & hardware limitations.
