In this paper, we consider dynamic QoS Routing in an integrated-services environment where some of the offered traffic streams are dynamic. While there has been work on routing performance in the presence of purely stationary traffic, the presence of dynamic traffic has received very little attention. We consider here three routing schemes: Dynamic Random Routing (DRR), Maximum Available Capaci...

Antidromic activity was recorded in anesthetized rats from single afferent fibers in the proximal ends of cut dorsal root filaments at the L(4-6) level and tested for responses to acute cutaneous inflammation produced by intradermal injection of capsaicin. This antidromic activity included low-frequency spontaneous firing and dorsal root reflex (DRR) discharges evoked by applying von Frey hairs...

Efforts and discourses of the need to integrate disaster education into a science curriculum for university students in Indonesia are well documented. However, lecturers more room introduce Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR) way that involves as experiential learners. Integrating DRR Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics (STEM) subjects is crucial point. The current study used virtual realit...

Receivers for long-code systems are for computational reasons usually based on simple matched-filter techniques, and hence suffer frommultiaccess interference. Decorrelating RAKE andMMSE receivers do not have this problem but have not been widely studied due to the apparent complexity of the inversion of a large code matrix. Tong, van der Veen Dewilde, and Sung (IEEE Tr. Signal Proc., 2003) der...

We present an 8 × 8 wavelength-routing switch (WRS) that monolithically integrates tunable wavelength converters (TWCs) and an 8 × 8 arrayed-waveguide grating. The TWC consists of a double-ringresonator tunable laser (DRR TL) allowing rapid and stable switching and a semiconductor-optical-amplifier-based optical gate. Two different types of dry-etched mirrors form the laser cavity of the DRR TL...

Deficit Round-Robin (DRR) is a widespread scheduling algorithm that provides fair queueing with variable-length packets. Bounds on worst-case delays for DRR were found by Boyer et al., who used rigorous network calculus approach and characterized the service obtained one flow of interest means convex strict curve. These bounds do not make any assumptions interfering traffic hence are pessimisti...

Abstract Recent scientific consensus suggests that climate-related disasters are becoming more frequent and destructive. Consequently, increasing importance is given to disaster risk reduction (DRR) climate change adaptation (CCA) in global governance. The projected warming at 1.5 ºC the variability Philippine archipelago experiences make DRR-CCA key priorities of both national local government...

Nature-based Solutions (NBS) have been increasingly advocated as means of achieving a greener and sustainable future. Although discussion on the definition, scale applicability NBS in country city-level agendas are ongoing, received less attention terms them supporting country-level approaches to Disaster Risk Reduction (DRR). This paper uses series indicators reflecting national capability nec...

In wireless networks, the definition of fair resource allocation is ambiguous primarily because the wireless channel condition is not constant over time and distance. Two main ways to define fair resource allocation are: by number of allocated slots, i.e., temporalfainess, or the number of transmitted bytes, throughput-fairness. In wireless broadband networks, the quality of services level is a...
