As the number of adopted alternative fuel vehicles increases, it is crucial for communities (especially those that are susceptible to hazards) make evacuation plans account such refueling needs. During emergencies require preemptive planning, travelers using vulnerable when routes do not provide access stations on their way shelters. In this paper, we formulate and solve a novel seamless route ...

Vibrio fischeri is a bioluminescent bacterium that enters into a symbiosis with the bobtail squid Euprymna scolopes. The bacterium colonizes a specialized light organ, in which it generates light that might help the squid to hide its silhouette from animals beneath it. Previous studies have shown that the host nitric oxide (NO) synthase is active during colonization, suggesting that V. fischeri...

We present an alternative derivation of the gravitational field equations starting from the Newton’s law, which intrinsically brings in observer dependence in the theory. Projecting the Riemann curvature tensor appropriately as fit for an observer, taking a cue from Poisson’s equation, the Einstein’s equations immediately follow. Our derivation naturally adapts to Lovelock gravity theories wher...

A rodenticide is any product able to kill rodents, mice, gophers, squirrels and other small animals. They represent a diverse group of chemicals bearing little or no relationship to one another – apart from their current or historic use as rodenticides. Anticoagulant rodenticides [1] of the indanedione type (Fig. 1) are commonly used for the control of mice, rats and other rodents. The most imp...

Every human likes choices. But today’s fast route planning algorithms usually compute just a single route between source and target. There are beginnings to compute alternative routes, but there is a gap between the intuition of humans what makes a good alternative and mathematical definitions needed for grasping these concepts algorithmically. In this paper we make several steps towards closin...

A recent trend in routing research is the use of overlay routing to improve end-to-end QoS without changing the network-level architecture. The key of this technology is to find an alternative route that can avoid congested routes, using an overlay network. Developing costefficient overlay routing in terms of calculation cost and information distribution cost needed to find an alternative route...
