In the prevailing cellular environment, it is important to provide the resources for the fluctuating traffic demand exactly in the place and at the time where and when they are needed. In this paper, we explored the ability of hierarchical cellular structures with inter layer reuse to increase the capacity of mobile communication network by applying total frequency hopping (T-FH) and adaptive f...

This paper considers two-dimensional interference-limited cellular radio systems. It introduces the shotgun cellular system that places base stations randomly and assigns channels randomly. Such systems are shown to provide lower bounds to cellular performance that are easy to compute, independent of shadow fading, and apply to a number of design scenarios. Traditional hexagonal systems provide...

machine-part family formation is one of major applications of group technology (gt). the machine cell formation problem in cellular manufacturing system (cms) involves the decomposition of the manufacturing system into machine cells. part families are identified such that they are fully processed within a machine cell. the problem of cell design is a very complex task with wide ranging implicat...

vaccines against the hiv-1 virus offers the best hope for eliminating hiv-associated mortality. recombinant adenovector type 5 (rad5) vaccine is a potential candidate for preventive vaccine strategies. in this study, we evaluated the rad5 prime/protein boost strategy in a murine model. we used rad5 harboring single hiv-1 genes. these genes, including gag (p24) and exon1 of tat, were amplified f...
