  Science Programs at Williams   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-14)
The computer science major is designed to provide preparation for advanced study of computer science and high level career opportunities, as well as simply a deeper appreciation of current knowledge and the challenges of computer science.
The intent of the program is to both broaden the student's experience in the humanities, social sciences and natural sciences and to simultaneously explore the relationship between the discipline that she or he is specializing in and the larger environmental arena.
Science majors are introduced to the richness and variety of scientific activity, as well as to its relationships to society as a whole.

 AS Report
In the context of this report "Upstream" indicates that there is an adjacent AS that lines between the BGP table collection point (in this case at AS4637) as the specified AS.
This upstream / downstream categorisation is strictly a description relative topology, and should not be confused with provider / customer / peer inter-AS relationships.
This report does not take into account conditions local to each origin AS in terms of policy or traffic engineering requirements, so this is an approximate guideline as to aggregation possibilities.

The Belize River then opened up into a large freshwater river, and we quickly moved upstream to the site where we caught our bus to Altun Ha.
After the visit to the ruins, we had lunch at a nice local restaurant and then reboarded the boat.
The boat had been moved farther upstream by the first mate while we were at Altun Ha, so we started the return trip in the Howler Monkey Sanctuary.

 Computer Science Technical Report 2004-26
To address scalability and power consumption issues related to sensor networks, we propose a three-tier system that uses wavelets to adaptively reduce the streaming data spatially and temporally.
At the sensor level, measurement data is temporally compressed before being sent upstream to intermediate communication nodes.
There, correlated data from multiple sensors is combined and sent to the operation center for further reduction and interpretation.

 Re: Can 'backpropagation of error' work in humans?
Backpropagation is not generally considered neurally plausible for two reasons: 1) As you mention, it would require that the "correct answer" be provided.
In higher-level processes, such as language learning, there may literally be a teacher: another person who tells you what the right answer is.
While this can be done in a petri dish, it does not happen in the brain -- there is no mechanism to generate an action potential at the synapse end of the axon.

Accurately characterising paths is the foundation of both resource sharing and routing in packet networks.
Re-feedback is a simple realignment of metrics so that data headers characterise their downstream, rather than upstream path.
Then the choice between network and end-point control can be made at run-time rather than prejudged as part of the network architecture.

However, such assays are labor intensive and cannot identify all the binding sites of transcription factors, hence we need to go for in silico analysis.
The problem basically reduces to finding binding sites with high probability once we are given the upstream sequences of co-regulated genes (hoping that they would share the same TFs).
And then, we will be able to make valid assumptions like when palindromicity is relevent, when neighboring symbols have a "significant" effect, whether there is any dependence between far away positions etc. Finally, using this information, we will try to discover new binding sites for real genes.
