iran is one of the countries with considerable road traffic injuries.  pre-hospital interventions have an important role in preventing mortalities and disabilities caused by traffic accidents. the present study aimed to explore the barriers of pre-hospital care in traffic injuries in tehran, iran. a qualitative content analysis approach was conducted based on 21 semi-structured interviews with ...

There is significant interest in the network management community about the need to improve existing techniques for clustering multi-variate network traffic flow records so that we can quickly infer underlying traffic patterns. In this paper we investigate the use of clustering techniques to identify interesting traffic patterns in an efficient manner. We develop a framework to deal with mixed ...

An in-depth analysis of traffic data provides valuable insights into network traffic structures. This paper presents both methods for such an in-depth analysis and their implementation within the system STRUCTUREMINER. Moreover, it is shown in which way the analysis performed by STRUCTUREMINER can be used to tackle several administrative network tasks. Keywords— network analysis, traffic analys...

In this paper, we propose a two-step unlinkability measuring approach for MANET, i.e., (a) evidence collection using statistical packet-counting traffic analysis, (b) evidence theory-based unlinkability measure. We use IEEE 802.11b-based MANETs as our analytical systems. Using our approach, we can collect a set of evidence to set up a probability assignment for each possible communication relat...

BACKGROUND Traffic is a source of environmental exposures, including benzene, which may be related to childhood leukemia. OBJECTIVES A national registry-based case-control study [ESCALE (Etude Sur les Cancers et les Leucémies de l'Enfant, Study on Environmental and Genetic Risk Factors of Childhood Cancers and Leukemia)] carried out in France was used to assess the effect of exposure to road ...
