Understanding the Impact of Delays in High-speed Networks (VIDEO)
Caption
Movie shows extreme sub-second behavior in the networks underlying the current financial system. Such extreme behaviors can offer fresh insight into the function -- and importantly the malfunction -- of a brain. The entire episode lasts less than 500 milliseconds, which is below the human response time and faster than the typical timescale of human consciousness. This material relates to a paper that appeared in the Feb. 24, 2017, issue of Science, published by AAAS. The paper, by N.F. Johnson at University of Miami in Coral Gables, FL, and colleagues was titled, 'To slow or not? Challenges in subsecond networks'
