Multi-hop relaying in cellular networks can greatly increase capacity and performance by exploiting the best available links to a base station. We envision an environment in which relay networks are dynamically formed when performance on the radio access network is degraded and then dissolved when the performance improves or the radio spectrum on which the relay network is operating is reclaime...

A cellular network is often modelled as a graph and the channel assignment problem is formulated as a coloring problem of the graph. In this papel; we introduce the notion of cellular graphs that models the hexagonal cell structures of a cellular network. Exploiting the regular structure of the cellular graphs we compute the upper and the lower bounds for a class of channel assignment problems....

This paper develops a multiple channel assignment model, which allows to take advantage of spectrum opportunities in cognitive radio networks in the most efficient way. The developed scheme allows making several assignments of available and frequency adjacent channel, which require a bigger bandwidth, under an equality environment. The hybrid assignment model it is made by two algorithms, one t...

A comparative study of the resonance Raman spectra of a number of hemoproteins with excitation in the Soret region reveals features that characterize the valence and spin state of the iron. (a) The frequency of the strongest band in the spectra for reduced (ferrous) hemoproteins always occurs between 1356 and 1361 cm-l, whereas for oxidized (ferric) proteins it occurs between 1370 and 1378 cm-l...

Band assignment for oxy, deoxy and methemoglobin using orbital promotion is crucial to understanding inter-relation of electronic transitions. Spectral changes may be correlated with conformational alteratiions. Conformational changes of hemoglobin were interpreted using four-orbital model of Gouterman. Our results indicated that Goutherman model can predict the predominant conformations of hem...

We have recently presented band-selective homonuclear cross-polarization (BSH-CP) as an efficient method for CO-CA transfer in deuterated as well as protonated solid proteins. Here we show how the BSH-CP CO-CA transfer block can be incorporated in a set of three-dimensional (3D) solid-state NMR (ssNMR) pulse schemes tailored for resonance assignment of proteins at high static magnetic fields an...

We report the observation of a new c-type band of ~D2O!3 at 583.215 92~37! GHz, which we assign to the k5620←610 torsional hot-band. The new data includes the first observation of K50 states for the k511 and k522 levels and effects a correct assignment of these states. A new perturbation was observed for the K52 states of the k5120←210 subband splitting each transition into two equally spaced e...

We have studied the line shape and frequency of the G band Raman modes in individual metallic single walled carbon nanotubes (M-SWNTs) as a function of Fermi level (epsilonF) position, by tuning a polymer electrolyte gate. Our study focuses on the data from M-SWNTs where explicit assignment of the G- and G+ peaks can be made. The frequency and line shape of the G- peak in the Raman spectrum of ...

The W-band continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis of chemically induced polarons in drop-cast and spin-coated polyphenylenevinylene-type and polythiophene-type polymer films reveals rhombic g tensors in both cases. The dependence of the W-band EPR signals on the orientation of the spin-coated films with respect to the magnetic field indicates a high degree of backbone al...

Empirical studies indicate that automating the bug assignment process has the potential to significantly reduce software evolution effort and costs. Prior work has used machine learning techniques to automate bug assignment but has employed a narrow band of tools which can be ineffective in large, longlived software projects. To redress this situation, in this paper we employ a comprehensive se...
