Neuronal long-range temporal correlations and avalanche dynamics are correlated with behavioral scaling laws - http://www.citeulike.org/user...
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (11 February 2013), doi:10.1073/pnas.1216855110 Scale-free fluctuations are ubiquitous in behavioral performance and neuronal activity. In time scales from seconds to hundreds of seconds, psychophysical dynamics and the amplitude fluctuations of neuronal oscillations are governed by power-law-form long-range temporal correlations (LRTCs). In millisecond time scales, neuronal activity comprises cascade-like neuronal avalanches that exhibit power-law size and lifetime distributions. However, it remains unknown whether these neuronal scaling laws are correlated with those characterizing behavioral performance or whether neuronal LRTCs and avalanches are related. Here, we show that the neuronal scaling laws are strongly correlated both with each other and with behavioral scaling laws. We used source reconstructed magneto- and electroencephalographic recordings to characterize the dynamics of ongoing cortical activity. We found robust... - Björn Brembs

The cost of knowledge in Germany - http://bjoern.brembs.net/news...
German library statistics confirm publishers' claim that per title cost has decreased in recent years. - Björn Brembs
How? By adding more and more marginal journals? Or has the price per title for non-bulk subscriptions decreased too? - Egon Willighagen
BTW, interesting numbers... 220k avg per university is a mere 100 papers. That is not by far enough to match a university's yearly output... that supports the point of librarians that moving to a full OA is not reachable. I guess the cost per paper would have to go down to below 500 euro to make this happen. Of course, waivers may help (temp solution), and ideas like peerJ... - Egon Willighagen
I can't answer your first question from the data. I just look at the costs of subscription and then divide that by the number of titles the libraries carry. I did not find a way to a finer granularity, but see also the Houghton report for Germany: http://nbn-resolving.de/urn... - Björn Brembs
On your second comment: ??? Each library spent on average 660k in subscriptions, of which 220 were non-costs. This means that if libraries were to take back publishing, 440k of each library would cover the cost of publishing, allowing each library to spend 220k on something else. - Björn Brembs
