This contribution wishes to contribute to the present controversies and discussions about smart cities by sketching a framework for the affective smart city.

erythraeus (zaracarus) coleopterus mortazavi, hajiqanbar & saboori, 2012 (acari: parasitengona: erythraeidae) was described based on a single specimen from kerman province, southeastern iran, associated with a scarabaeid beetle, cyphonoxia sp. (coleoptera: scarabaeidae). this species reports for the second time from stored grain (off host) in saqqez and baneh cities, kurdistan province, western...

quercus persica and pistacia mutica are two known and prevalent forest trees of baneh and marivan from kurdistan province (w iran). thirty-five fungal isolates were obtained from 50 bark samples of q. persica collected in sept. and mar. 2010–11. the aim of this study was to identify fungi associated with oak trees of kurdistan province. based on morphological features and authentic keys (ellis ...

The European Parliament has continuously supported these goals. It is a common understanding that this change will require a transition from monopolised hierarchically controlled Power networks to customer oriented Smart Grids operating in deregulated energy markets. However, this poses several regulatory, organizational and technical challenges to be identified and addressed. To that end sever...

It is shown that the quantization of a superparticle propagating in an N = 1, D = 4 superspace extended with tensorial coordinates results in an infinite tower of massless spin states satisfying the Vasiliev unfolded equations for higher spin fields in flat and AdS4 N = 1 superspace. The tensorial extension of the AdS4 superspace is proved to be a supergroup manifold OSp (1|4). The model is man...
