متن کاملOptimal recovery of damaged infrastructure networks
Natural disasters or attacks may disrupt infrastructure networks on a vast scale. Parts of the damaged network are interdependent, making it difficult to plan and optimally execute the recovery operations. To study how interdependencies affect the recovery schedule, we introduce a new discrete optimization problem where the goal is to minimize the total cost of installing (or recovering) a give...
متن کاملData recovery from damaged electronic memory devices
High value crime involving mobile phones sometimes require examination of highly damaged, possibly exploded devices, currently beyond the capabilities of existing methods. In the pursuit of a forensically sound method to examine damaged memory devices we are investigating a number of techniques to access and analyse samples. Backside processing involving lapping steps, followed by a BOE / TMAH ...
متن کاملRecovery of marine animal populations and ecosystems.
Many marine populations and ecosystems have experienced strong historical depletions, yet reports of recoveries are increasing. Here, we review the growing research on marine recoveries to reveal how common recovery is, its magnitude, timescale and major drivers. Overall, 10-50% of depleted populations and ecosystems show some recovery, but rarely to former levels of abundance. In addition, rec...
