This paper focuses on the potentialities offered by mobile phone data to a reading of the site practices and rhythms of usage of the contemporary city by identifying the principal mobile practices of different urban populations. Beginning with the results of a research carried out in the Italian region of Lombardy, utilising mobile phone data provided by Telecom Italia, the paper will demonstra...

conclusions according to the obtained results, females in the rural areas had lower sexual function than the ones in the urban areas. it is suggested to establish female sexual health units in healthcare centers to give female sexual function consultation adjusted with awareness and culture of females and consider the existing problems. background healthy sexual function can be considered as an...

The extent of human flow in the urban space has reached unprecedented levels, and is therefore the focus of the present study. Unlike common practice on urban monitoring which utilizes cameras or sensors, this research aims to introduce a new platform of urban analysis and monitoring by using mobile sensing to recognize urban behaviour. Population density and its moving pattern can thus be visu...

the computer industry has defined the ieee 802.16 family of standards that will enable mobile devices to access a broadband network as an alternative to digital subscriber line technology. as the mobile devices join and leave a network, security measures must be taken to ensure the safety of the network against unauthorized usage by encryption and group key management. ieee 802.16e uses multica...

Mobile elements are commonly referred to as selfish repetitive DNA sequences. However, mobile elements represent a unique and underutilized group of molecular markers. Several of their characteristics make them ideally suited for use as tools in forensic genomic applications. These include their nature as essentially homoplasy-free characters, they are identical by descent, the ancestral state ...

The slow motion of a self-gravitating CP 1 lump is investigated in the approximation of geodesic flow on the moduli space of unit degree static solutions M1. It is found that moduli which are frozen in the absence of gravity, parametrizing the lump’s width and internal orientation, may vary once gravitational effects are included. If gravitational coupling is sufficiently strong, the presence o...
