Abstract In this paper we analyse the performance of an Adaptive Random-Reservation Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol which can support all ATM service classes while providing the required Quality of Service (QoS).

BACKGROUND A timely detection of outbreaks through surveillance is needed in order to prevent future pandemics. However, current surveillance systems may not be prepared to accomplish this goal, especially in resource limited settings. As data quality and timeliness are attributes that improve outbreak detection capacity, we assessed the effect of two interventions on such attributes in Alerta,...

Recent literature analyses the role of territorial specificities, as the core of territorial rural development strategies based on differentiation. Unfortunately, the proliferation of quality assurance schemes is provoking a “labyrinth of labels” which diffuses the local efforts for capitalizing rural specificities. A second-generation of labels is currently being developed to simplify the terr...

A large scale psychophysical experiment was carried out to judge the perception of image quality of the photographic images. Two types of experiments, pair comparison and categorical judgment, were conducted for evaluating image difference and absolute quality respectively. Test images were generated by rendering the eight selected original images according to the change of lightness, chroma, c...

Under this assumption, a faculty member who receives a mean score of 4.35 is a better teacher than a faculty member who receives a score of 4.25. Willie Tan’s study of SF scores in the article, “Determinants of Student Feedback Scores” shows that this assumption is flawed. There are many other numerically quantifiable variables, such as class size, perceived difficulty level, expected grades, a...

Latent fingerprints which are lifted from surfaces of objects at crime scenes play a very important role in identifying suspects in the crime scene investigations. Due to poor quality of latent fingerprints, automatic processing of latents can be extremely challenging. For this reason, latent examiners need to be involved in latent identification. To expedite the latent identification and allev...
