dablink For the analogous theory in evolutionary biology , see signallingtheory In economics , more precisely in contract theory , signalling or signaling see American and British English differences is the idea that one party termed the Agent law agent credibly conveys some information about itself to another party the Principal commercial law principal . For example, in Michael Spence Michael Spence s job market signalling model, potential employees send a signal about their ability level to the employer by acquiring certain education credentials. The informational value of the credential comes from the fact that the employer assumes it is positively correlated with having greater ability. Introductory questions Signalling took root in the idea of asymmetric information a deviation from perfect information , which says that in some economic transactions, inequalities in access to information upset the normal market for the exchange of goods and services. In his seminal 1973 article, Michael Spence proposed that two parties could get around the problem of asymmetric information by having ... in the transaction trust the signal to be an honest declaration of information?

Unreferenced date January 2007 Main article Signalling telecommunications The term compelled signalling refers to a class of telecommunications signalling protocols where receipt of each discrete signal needs to be explicitly acknowledged before the next signal is able to be sent. For example, in R2 signalling R2 register signalling , the transmission of each signal involves the following five events The outgoing trunk begins sending the tones that correspond to the signal it wishes to convey in the forward direction The incoming trunk, once it is sure to have correctly detected the above signal, begins sending a set of confirmation tones in the backward direction The outgoing trunk, once it is sure to have correctly detected the confirmation tones, stops sending the signal tones in the forward direction The incoming trunk, once it is sure to have detected the end of the signal tones that is that the forward channel is now silent stops sending its confirmation tones in the backward direction Before being able to begin sending the next signal, if any, the outgoing trunk needs to ensure that it is receiving silence on the backward channel. The term is only relevant in the case of signalling systems that use discrete signals e.g. a combination of tones to denote one digit , as opposed to signalling systems which are message oriented, such as Signaling System 7 SS7 and ISDN Q.931, where each message is able to convey multiple items of information e.g. multiple digits of the called telephone number . The contrary of compelled signalling is referred to as non compelled signalling. An example includes DTMF , where the originating side sends tones and silence in the forward direction, without being able to ascertain whether each tone has been correctly received by the terminating side. In order to minimise the risk of signalling errors, minimum durations are imposed, both on the tones and on the intervening periods of silence.

Autocrine signalling is a form of signalling in which a cell secretes a hormone or chemical messenger called the autocrine agent that binds to autocrine receptors on the same cell , leading to changes in the cell. ref Pandit, Nikita K. Introduction to the pharmaceutical sciences , page 238, 2007 ref This can be contrasted with paracrine signalling , intracrine signalling, or classical endocrine signalling. Examples An example of an autocrine agent is the cytokine interleukin 1 in monocytes . When interleukin 1 is produced in response to external stimuli, it can bind to cell surface receptor biochemistry receptors on the same cell that produced it. Citation needed date October 2009 Another example occurs in activated T cell lymphocytes , i.e., when a T cell is induced to mature by binding to a peptide MHC complex on a professional antigen presenting cell and by the B7 protein B7 CD28 costimulatory signal. Upon activation, low affinity Interleukin 2 IL 2 receptors are replaced by high affinity IL 2 receptors consisting of , , and chains. The cell then releases IL 2, which binds to its own new IL 2 receptors, causing self stimulation and ultimately a monoclonal population of T cells. These T cells can then go on to perform effector functions such as macrophage activation, B cell activation, and cell mediated cytoxicity .

Image Notchccr.gif thumb Notch signaling Notch mediated juxtacrine signal between adjacent cells. In biology, juxtacrine signalling is a type of Cell signaling intercellular communication that is transmitted via oligosaccharide , lipid , or protein components of a cell membrane, and may affect either the emitting cell or the immediately adjacent cells. The term juxtacrine was originally introduced by Anklesaria et al. 1990 to describe a possible way of signal transduction between TGF alpha and Epidermal growth factor receptor EGFR . It occurs between adjacent cells that possess broad patches of closely opposed plasma membrane linked by transmembrane channels known as connexon s. The gap between the cells can usually be between only 2 and 4 nm. Unlike other types of cell signaling cell signalling such as paracrine and endocrine , juxtacrine signalling requires physical contact between the two cells involved. Juxtacrine signalling has been observed for some growth factor s, cytokine and chemokine cellular signals.

T theory is a branch of discrete mathematics dealing with analysis of tree graph theory tree s and discrete metric spaces . General history As per Andreas Dress , T theory originated from a question raised by Manfred Eigen , a recipient of the Nobel Prize in Chemistry , in the late seventies. He was trying to fit twenty distinct transfer RNA t RNA molecule s of the Escherichia coli E. Coli bacterium into a tree. One of the most important concepts of T theory is the tight span of a metric space. If X is a metric space, the tight span T X of X is, up to isomorphism, the unique minimal injective metric space that contains X . John Isbell was the first to discover the tight span in 1964, which he called the injective envelope . Dress independently constructed the same construct, which he called the tight span. Application areas Phylogenetic analysis, which is used to create phylogenetic tree s. Online algorithm s k server problem k server problem Recent developments Bernd Sturmfels , Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science at University of California, Berkeley Berkeley , and Josephine Yu classified six point metrics using T theory.

Non Facility Associated Signalling or NFAS is a Primary Rate Interface configuration whereby multiple T carrier T1 carriers share a Signaling telecommunications signalling channel or D channel . A T1 circuit typically carries 24 individual timeslot s. Each timeslot in turn carries a single telephone call . When a T1 circuit is used to carry Primary Rate ISDN one of the timeslots is used to carry the D channel. A single Primary Rate ISDN circuit is thus sometimes described as 23B D. There are 23 bearer channel s carrying voice or data, and one D channel carrying the Common Channel Signaling . In an NFAS configuration, multiple T1 circuits share a single D channel, with an upper limit of 20 T1 circuits in a single NFAS configuration. A full NFAS configuration can then be described as 479B D. There is one problem a failure on the T1 trunk carrying the D channel will also affect all 19 other trunks. The solution is D channel backup where a second D channel is configured on another trunk. In the event of failure the backup D channel takes over the signalling. So the final configuration is 478B D D backup. NFAS is a cost cutting measure. Customers ordering a Primary Rate ISDN service will be charged for each Signaling telecommunications signalling channel. Therefore an NFAS configuration can be cheaper than Facility Associated Signalling, due to historical reasons. North American switches such as the Lucent 5ESS switch 5ESS , and the Nortel Digital Multiplex System DMS 100 did not handle common channel signalling such as ISDN on the same line card that terminated the T1 circuit. So, the telephone company needs to buy and maintain a separate signalling card for every D channel. The situation ... calls, one timeslot is used for synchronization, and one timeslot is used to carry the signalling channel.
