Information and communication technology (ICT) tools are known to facilitate communication and processing of information and sharing of knowledge by electronic means. In Nigeria, the lack of adequate capacity on the use of ICT by health sector policymakers constitutes a major impediment to the uptake of research evidence into the policymaking process. The objective of this study was to improve ...

For a partially degradable (PD) channel, the channel output state can be used to simulate the degraded environment state. The quantum capacity of a PD channel has been proven to be additive. Here, we show that the private classical capacity of arbitrary dimensional PD channels is equal to the quantum capacity of the channel and also single-letterizes. We prove that higher rates of private class...

A channel capacity is non-convex if the capacity of a mixture of different quantum channels exceeds the mixture of the individual capacities. This implies that there is a concrete communication scenario in which a sender can increase the transmission rate by forgetting which channel acts on the channel input. Previously, this surprising property had only been shown for the quantum capacity. Her...

This article argues that, properly analysed, the common law and the European Convention on Human Rights (ECHR) march hand in hand with the provisions of the Mental Capacity Act 2005 (MCA 2005) so as to impose a set of requirements on litigation friends acting for the subject of applications of proceedings before the Court of Protection ('P') which are very different to those currently understoo...

due to increasing expansion of energy consumption and also the decrease and tendency towardsending fossil energy reserves, the current energy cycle needs to use alternative energy speciallywind energy, because it’s considerably cheaper than other recycling sources. the presentresearch investigates suitable possibility of exploiting wind energy to create wind power stationin soltanieh zone of za...

the current limited focus on management in global health activities is highly problematic given the amounts of financial and human resources that are pouring into health system strengthening interventions and the complexity of clinical operations across settings. by ensuring that public health and healthcare practitioners in domestic and international settings receive management training in the...

introduction: a growing number of muslim athletes now engage in international competition. this raises the question of the advice they should be given if a major event occurs during the month of ramadan. methods: a narrative review has been based upon books and extensive reviews completed by the author and other investigators. results: practical considerations hamper assessment of the effects o...

Motivated by channel measurements in different indoor locations we will show that the WLAN indoor MIMO channel is characterized by few dominant transmission paths mainly corresponding to the LOS path and some strong reflections. In the contrary to the common statistical flat Rayleigh fading channel model we will explain that the WLAN channel is widely deterministic and frequency selective. Furt...

fuel cells, secondary batteries and capacitors are among many promising energy storage devices. in particular, supercapacitors have attracted much attention because of their long life cycle and high power density. graphene/nickel ferrite(g-nf) based supercapacitors were successfully fabricated through a one-step facile solvothermal route. effects of synthesis conditions i.e. solvothermal time a...
