every year large amounts of grapes are stores in normal and cold rooms to offer off-season of grapes to the market which based on several reasons their quality and weight greatly decreases. therefore, in order to decrease the post harvest losses of grapes and selection of suitable cultivars for long time storage, this study was conducted in two experiments, one in a factorial experiment based o...

ABSTRACT The BOA system is a mobile pipeexternal robotic crawler used to remotely strip and bag asbestos-containing lagging and insulation materials (ACLIM) from various diameter pipes in (primarily) industrial installations. Steam and process lines within the DOE weapons complex warrant the use of a remote device due to the high labor costs and high level of radioactive contamination, making m...

Litchi is a non-climacteric fruit (Wills et al. 2004) and it deteriorates very fast after harvest. Various technologies have been devised to minimize the post-harvest losses of litchi, one of such technologies is the use of PP bag & low temperature. The objectives of the study were to evaluate the effects of thiLitchi is a non-climacteric fruit and it deteriorates very fast after harvest. Vario...

Advancements in mobile devices and vision technology have enabled mobile Augmented Reality (AR) to be serviced in real-time using natural features. However, in viewing AR while moving around in the real world, users often encounter new and diverse target objects. Whether the AR system is scalable to the number of target objects is a very crucial issue for mobile AR services in the real world. T...

INTRODUCTION Although we get into the habit of thinking that anesthesia cannot be safely delivered without the availability of all equipments available in a state of the art Operating room, we find ourselves faced with situations where the availability and mobility of all this equipment is limited ; this results in the impetus to start a thought process of how we can perform mobile anesthesia w...

Advancing social and cultural geography’s interest in sport, exercise commuting, as well the everyday experiences of movement, materiality, rhythm, this paper provides first account run-commuting through a focus on running with bag. Run-commuting is an emerging active travel practice which people run to and/or from work. It blurs usual separation mobilities related work those leisure. In doing ...

Two experiments were conducted to determine the effects of corn hybrid and processing method on the site and extent of nutrient digestibility and ruminal fermentation. Treatments consisted of 2 processing methods, dry-rolled corn (DRC) and high-moisture corn (HMC), and 3 hybrids, H-8562 (1), 33P67 (2), and H-9230 (3), in a 2 × 3 factorial arrangement. In Exp. 1, six ruminally cannulated crossbr...

This paper describes two new live performance scenarios for performing music using bluetooth-enabled mobile phones. Interaction between mobile phones via wireless link is a key feature of the performance interface for each scenario. Both scenarios are discussed in the context of two publicly performed works for an ensemble of players in which mobile phone handsets are used both as sound sources...

This paper outlines a new approach to the acquisition and processing of digital evidence obtained from disparate digital devices and sources. To date the capture of digital based evidence has always been in its entirety from the source device and different methods and containers (file types) are used for different types of digital device (e.g. computer, PDA, mobile phone). This paper defines a ...
