Wi-Fi tethering (i.e., sharing the Internet connection of a mobile phone via its Wi-Fi interface) is a useful functionality and is widely supported on commercial smartphones. Yet existing Wi-Fi tethering schemes consume excessive power: they keep the Wi-Fi interface in a high power state regardless if there is ongoing traffic or not. In this paper we propose System to improve the power efficien...

Advances in Wi-Fi technology have made Wi-Fi the preferred access method for everything from social media to business-critical applications. This has raised expectations for high performance to new levels, and any negative impact needs to be resolved immediately. Retry rates are the most reliable indicator of performance issues, and quickly diagnosing high retry rates and isolating them to a ro...

The role of the ventromedial nuclei of the hypothalamus (VMN) in food behavior was studied in adult male rats, allocated in 3 groups: control, sham and lesioned. Electrolytic lesions were induced stereotaxically (1.2 mA, 15 sec). Results revealed a significant decrease (p<O.05) in body weight (BW) and food intake (FI) in the order of lesioned <sham <control during the fIrst week. However, ...
