To this goal, a finite-user slotted random access is considered, in which devices can be in one of four possible device states: transmitting, thinking, decoding, or backlogged.
To do so, we consider a finite-user slotted random access system where devices can be either transmitting, thinking (i.e., there is no packet to transmit), decoding, or backlogged (i.e., packet transmission was erroneous and the device is waiting for a new transmission opportunity) and we assume that each device is equipped with a single-packet buffer2.
In this scenario, collisions come up and every device can be in one of four different device states: thinking, transmitting, decoding, or backlogged.
"But this is just another way, hopefully an easier way, to transmit what you're thinking to the computer brain".
This fear becomes worse when she thinks about her family: "I will never forgive myself if one of my children suffers from a disease for which I am responsible for transmitting I am terrified even thinking about this to avoid this, I always take precautions".
However, when thinking about pathogens transmitted when mosquitoes bite humans, maybe the roles are duplicated and, from the pathogen's point of view, it is also a case of man bites mosquito.
By privileging certain information and ways of thinking, discourses transmit values, beliefs and ideologies through policy texts and influences from policy actors.
The idea of being able to hack into your own brain, change what you're seeing, what you're thinking, and transmit data to somebody else…is incredibly fascinating.
"When it comes to idea of embedding messages, we were thinking about ways to transmit a message without other people knowing anything was being transmitted, kind hiding in plain sight," Chen says.
For Zuckerman, the policy of successive governments to pursue ever more powerful nuclear weaponry was grounded in the emotive power of conventional thinking transmitted through successive generations, untested by empirically based rational calculation.
It's a beautiful metaphor for the relationship between reading and thinking, the words transmitting like light to the brain.
