This paper examines crime hot spots near licensed premises in the night-time economy (NTE) to investigate whether hot spots of four different classification of crime and disorder co-occur in time and place, namely violence, disorder, drugs and criminal damage. It introduces the concept of multi-classification crime (MCC) hot spots; the presence of hot spots of more than one crime classification...

The number of cellular communication subscribers continues to grow, attesting to the great success of this technology. However, cellular networks have inherent limitations on cell capacity and coverage and shortcomings such as the dead spot and the hot spot problems. Multi-hop cellular networks (MCNs) help enhance the cell capacity and coverage, while, at the same time, alleviating the dead spo...

The spatial structure and temporal evolution of a nondiffusive hot spot is examined in a confined, planar enclosure. The situation is modelled by the reactive Euler equations and single-step Arrhenius kinetics with a large (scaled) activation temperature 1/ . The initial state of the medium is taken to be one of uniform pressure but with a prescribed thermal gradient of order across the domain....
