---------------------------------------------------------------------***--------------------------------------------------------------------Abstract Energy is the main constraint for nodes powered by batter, in Wireless Sensor Network (WSN), which can’t be replace latter once deployed. To extend the network lifetime, hierarchical routing is employed. In this paper we aim to improve network life...

In order to simulate a contamination at the processing plant, one batch of freshly-processed salami batter (20 kg) was inoculated (1% v:w) with 5 log colony forming unit (CFU)/g of a multi-strain cocktail of two strains of Escherichia coli O157:H7 (registered and wild strain). Another batch was inoculated (1% v:w) with sterile physiological saline solution and used to check the lactic acid bact...

Men who batter, because of particular personality traits and sense of entitlement, may select partners whom they perceive will be dependent on them, meet their emotional needs, or be "objects" of physical attractiveness. During treatment intake, 181 offenders responded to the question, "What attracted you to her (your partner)?" We explored whether men who mentioned their own needs or her physi...

Children's temporal comprehension was assessed after viewing a television program containing a flashback that shifted the events to a much earlier time. The flashback was marked or not marked with sound effects, and time relations were visually represented with either dreamy camera dissolves or abrupt camera cuts. Sixty-four children, equally distributed by grades kindergarten and first versus ...

Pulse shaping of a signal at base-band forms a more important tool in controlling and analyzing the parameters like ISI, the modulated signal envelope uniformity, the phase continuity as these parameters lead to the efficient spectral confinement of a binary signal which is a future and nowadays a major important aspect in the design of a wireless cellular communication system. In this paper, d...

Granulated Sugar A. R. N E E S 1 The users of sugar, especially the commercial users, are making increased demands for sugars of various types based on grain size. Some candy makers want coarse sugar because it handles bet ter in their kettles, bakers want fine sugar because it creams more easily in cake batter, and many housewives want an intermediate size which is neither coarse nor fine. If ...

The study focuses on the relationship between preaspiration and glottalisation in Manchester English. Analyses of five speakers aged 20-22 years indicate there is a prosodically conditioned complementary distribution: pre-aspiration is found word-medially (batter [patəә]), while glottalisation occurs wordfinally (bat [pat]) in plosive contexts. In fricative contexts (e.g. mass), analysed for th...
