We designed a solution and developed an artifact, which supports different users (namely business managers, compliance officers,...

Land Management Effects on Carbon Sequestration and Soil Properties in Reclaimed Farmland of Eastern Ohio, USA

Reclaimed mined soils (RMSs) could restore soil quality and ecosystem productivity while sequestering C and off-setting some of C emissions associated with coal utilization. The study was conducted to evaluate the effects of tillage and pasture management on soil physical properties, soil organic carbon (SOC) and microbial biomass carbon (MBC) in RMSs managed for agricultural use in eastern Ohi...

Performance evaluation of single and multi-channel actor to actor communication for wireless sensor actor networks

The paper discusses two distributed actor to actor communication schemes (a single channel one and a multi-channel one) for wireless sensor actor networks (WSANs). The performance of these two schemes is evaluated through analysis and simulation. The simulation results show that the whole analysis is fairly accurate. It is further proven that the multichannel scheme has better performance than ...
