In a paper published in the May 6 issue of the top journal Nature Neuroscience, experts demonstrate that brain networks have the ability to switch the frequencies at which they operate, in order to avoid the jamming of electrical signals through busy interactions.
Everyone knows that the human brain is tremendously... |

Later this month, around the same time E... |

A team of investigators at the MIT is proposing that cars be used as mobile, highly-efficient sensors for detecting traffic jams and other related issues that may delay traffic. The team believes that all warning methods that now exist to tell drivers were circulation has stopped have drastic limitations, which canno... |

The number of cars circulating on public roads around the world is constantly increasing, international statistics show, but the infrastructure they travel is unable to expand fast enough to accommodate the traffic. When this is coupled with some drivers' inability to watch the changing lights, or switch lanes o... |

Most people believe that traffic jams happen only when an accident occurs, or when a long line of cars reaches a bottleneck. Under these circumstances, the traffic naturally slows down or stops completely, but these are not the only things that cause jams. Scientists are currently studying a phenomenon called “... |

Scientists at the University of Hartford in the United States believe they may have just found a very effective way of “calming” the city's traffic and, implicitly, its jams. They are using a statistical theorem published by the famed mathematician Thomas Bayes (1702-1761), which deals with assessing... |
