BRANCHING RANDOM WALK WITH EXPONENTIALLY DECREASING STEPS, AND STOCHASTICALLY SELF-SIMILAR MEASURES
, 2007
"... Abstract. We consider a Branching Random Walk on R whose step size decreases by a fixed factor, 0 < λ < 1, with each turn. This process generates a random probability measure on R, that is, the limit of uniform distribution among the 2 n particles of the n-th step. We present an initial invest ..."

On the Self-similar Nature of Ethernet Traffic (Extended Version)
, 1994
"... We demonstrate that Ethernet LAN traffic is statistically self-similar, that none of the commonly used traffic models is able to capture this fractal-like behavior, that such behavior has serious implications for the design, control, and analysis of high-speed, cell-based networks, and that aggrega ..."

, and that aggregating streams of such traffic typically intensifies the self-similarity (“burstiness”) instead of smoothing it. Our conclusions are supported by a rigorous statistical analysis of hundreds of millions of high quality Ethernet traffic measurements collected between 1989 and 1992, coupled with a
Self-Similarity in World Wide Web Traffic: Evidence and Possible Causes
, 1996
"... Recently the notion of self-similarity has been shown to apply to wide-area and local-area network traffic. In this paper we examine the mechanisms that give rise to the self-similarity of network traffic. We present a hypothesized explanation for the possible self-similarity of traffic by using a p ..."

Self-Similarity Through High-Variability: Statistical Analysis of Ethernet LAN Traffic at the Source Level
- IEEE/ACM TRANSACTIONS ON NETWORKING
, 1997
"... A number of recent empirical studies of traffic measurements from a variety of working packet networks have convincingly demonstrated that actual network traffic is self-similar or long-range dependent in nature (i.e., bursty over a wide range of time scales) -- in sharp contrast to commonly made tr ..."

The CES-D scale: A self-report depression scale for research in the general population
- Applied Psychological Measurement
, 1977
"... The CES-D scale is a short self-report scale designed to measure depressive symptomatology in the general population. The items of the scale are symptoms associated with depression which have been used in previously validated longer scales. The new scale was tested in household interview surveys and ..."

Using Bayesian networks to analyze expression data
- Journal of Computational Biology
, 2000
"... DNA hybridization arrays simultaneously measure the expression level for thousands of genes. These measurements provide a “snapshot ” of transcription levels within the cell. A major challenge in computational biology is to uncover, from such measurements, gene/protein interactions and key biologica ..."

Answering the Skeptics: Yes, Standard Volatility Models Do Provide Accurate Forecasts
"... Volatility permeates modern financial theories and decision making processes. As such, accurate measures and good forecasts of future volatility are critical for the implementation and evaluation of asset and derivative pricing theories as well as trading and hedging strategies. In response to this, ..."

Illusion and well-being: A social psychological perspective on mental health.
- Psychological Bulletin,
, 1988
"... Many prominent theorists have argued that accurate perceptions of the self, the world, and the future are essential for mental health. Yet considerable research evidence suggests that overly positive selfevaluations, exaggerated perceptions of control or mastery, and unrealistic optimism are charac ..."

taxonomy of illusions is, to some extent, arbitrary. Many researchers have studied biases in the processing of self-relevant information and have given their similar phenomena different names. There is, however, considerable overlap in findings, and three that consistently emerge can be labeled
Motivation through the Design of Work: Test of a Theory. Organizational Behavior and Human Performance,

The model focuses on the interaction among three classes of variables: (a) the psychological states of employees that must be present for internally motiv ..."

The appropriate conceptualization and measurement of the differences among people that moderate how they respond to complex jobs has been the subject of a number of recent studies. Findings similar to those reported
Proof of a Fundamental Result in Self-Similar Traffic Modeling
- COMPUTER COMMUNICATION REVIEW
, 1997
"... We state and prove the following key mathematical result in self-similar traffic modeling: the superposition of many ON/OFF sources (also known as packet trains) with strictly alternating ON- and OFF-periods and whose ON-periods or OFF-periods exhibit the Noah Effect (i.e., have high variability or ..."

). This provides a simple physical explanation for the presence of self-similar traffic patterns in modern high-speed network traffic that is consistent with traffic measurements at the source level. We illustrate how this mathematical result can be combined with modern high-performance computing capabilities
