We consider a label switched network in which backup paths are provided using a local restoration scheme [1], [2]. A node receives a failure notification if either an adjacent link or a neighboring node fails. Such a node, however, cannot distinguish between link and node failures and must do one of two things. 1) Activate backup paths corresponding to both the link and the node suspected to ha...

in this study, an optimization model is proposed to design a global supply chain (gsc) for a medical device manufacturer under disruption in the presence of pre-existing competitors and price inelasticity of demand. therefore, static competition between the distributors’ facilities to more efficiently gain a further share in market of economic cooperation organization trade agreement (ecota) is...

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is currently the third most common within United States among both males and females, with increasing rates occurring in younger individuals compared to past. Multiple environmental social aspects including diet may be contributing this increase CRC rates. The aim of review examine foods containing high fructose corn syrup, processed meats, red meats which have shown lin...

In the context of external disruption presented by COVID-19 pandemic, we investigate (1) how individual-level resilience and inter-functional coordination relate to organizational (2) link between firm performance. We view as a resource-based capability draw on insights regarding psychological capital relational resources inform our hypotheses. Our hypotheses are tested with time-lagged, multi-...

evidence acquisition medline, pubmed, ovid and embase were used to search for clinical studies comparing with or without prophylactic use of lamivudine for hbv reactivation in breast cancer patients receiving chemotherapy. outcomes of interest were the rate of hbv reactivation, incidence of hepatitis and incidence of hepatitis attributable to hbv reactivation, severity of hepatitis and severity...

as wireless networks with high data rate get widely deployed, improving the performance of tcp over these networks plays vital role. wireless link losses have dramatic adverse impact on tcp performance due to the difficulty in distinguishing the congestion losses from wireless link losses. we first, studied the various existing bandwidth estimation algorithms over the wireless networks. in this...

Background: The link prediction issue is one of the most widely used problems in complex network analysis. Link prediction requires knowing the background of previous link connections and combining them with available information. The link prediction local approaches with node structure objectives are fast in case of speed but are not accurate enough. On the other hand, the global link predicti...
