Agregation With Fragment Retransmision (AFR) is a frame transmission scheme that can improve the efficiency and the throughput of MAC layer in WLAN 802.11n. In this paper, we studied the performance of AFR scheme when various VoIP and video traffics transmitted over WLAN. The purpose of this work is to know how the number of connections, packet size and fragment size of VoIP and video traffics ...

Magnetic Bright Points (MBPs) in the internetwork are among the smallest objects in the solar photosphere and appear bright against the ambient environment. An algorithm is presented that can be used for the automated detection of the MBPs in the spatial and temporal domains. The algorithm works by mapping the lanes through intensity thresholding. A compass search, combined with a study of the ...

BACKGROUND Type 2 diabetic patients display significantly higher incidence of cardiovascular (CV) events including stroke compared to non-diabetics. Morning blood pressure surge (MBPS) and blunted systolic night-day (SND) ratio have been associated with CV events in hypertensive patients. No studies have evaluated MBPS in newly diagnosed diabetic patients or studied the association with vascula...

OBJECTIVE Münchausen by proxy syndrome (MBPS) is a form of child abuse in which a parent fabricates or produces illness in a child. Although the medical consequences of MBPS have been well described, there is no detailed published account of what it was like to grow up in a family where the mother systematically induced serious illness. This article describes one victim's childhood experiences....

Methylated DNA can be specifically recognized by a set of proteins called methyl-CpG-binding proteins (MBPs), which belong to three different structural families in mammals: the MBD family, the Kaiso and Kaiso-like proteins and the SRA domain proteins. A current view is that, once bound to methylated DNA, MBPs translate the DNA methylation signal into appropriate functional states, through inte...

The efficiency of spectrum in mobile and wireless network might be achieved by exploiting the technical specification within the spectrum itself, and by introducing the new technical mechanism called network virtualization. The latter emphasises the enhancement of control and user planes of the network rather than utilise the spectrum. This research work focuses on the network virtualization, p...

We describe a datapath-scalable, minimalist cryptographic processor, called PAX, for mobile environments where the communication with the outside world is done on wireless connections. PAX is designed to fully utilize the high data rates of the newest and developing wireless technologies. Today, these rates exceed 2 Mbps for cellular/PCS connections, and 50 Mbps for WLAN connections. Future rat...

There has been an explosion of interest in mindfulness-based programs (MBPs) such as Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy. This is demonstrated in increased research, implementation of MBPs in healthcare, educational, criminal justice and workplace settings, and in mainstream interest. For the sustainable development of the field there is a need to a...
