background: sporadic alzheimer’s disease (sad) is caused by genetic risk factors, aging and oxidative stresses. the herbal extract of rosa canina (r. canina), tanacetum vulgare (t. vulgare) and urtica dioica (u. dioica) has a beneficial role in aging, as an anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidative agent. in this study, the neuroprotective effects of this herbal extract in the rat model of sad was i...

In this paper, we propose an Efficient Two-Level I/O Caching Architecture (ETICA) for virtualized platforms that can significantly improve latency, endurance, and cost (in terms of cache size) while preserving the reliability write-pending data blocks. As opposed to previous one-level caching schemes in platforms, our proposed architecture 1) provides two levels by employing both Dynamic Random...

This paper presents a ubiquitous learning (u-learning) system, the “Personalised Ubiquitous Learning Platform” (PULP), which integrates collaborative and social learning for the enhancement of the third level educational learning experience. University College Dublin (UCD) provides its students with managed learning environments (MLEs) and adaptive learning via UCD Horizon which enables student...

The location of broken insulators in aerial images is a challenging task. This paper, focusing on the self-blast glass insulator, proposes a deep learning solution. We address the broken insulators location problem as a low signal-noise-ratio image location framework with two modules: 1) object detection based on Fast R-CNN, and 2) classification of pixels based on U-net. A diverse aerial image...

In this paper, the problem of resource management is studied for a network of wireless virtual reality (VR) users communicating using an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-enabled LTE-U network. In the studied model, the UAVs act as VR control centers that collect tracking information from the VR users over the wireless uplink and, then, send the constructed VR images to the VR users over an LTE-U d...
