The current urgent need is to develop novel strategies for targeted therapy of chronic diseases. Due to their unique properties, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) technology has been recently engineered as im...

Wireless sensor networks are expected to play an essential role as a social infrastructure to realize our safe and secure living environment. In such a network, critical information must be transmitted faster and more reliably than other information. We propose a distributed transmission mechanism which enables emergency packets to be carried with high reliability and low latency along a prefer...
