The British JBurmah Gazette of the 18th March contains some correspondence on a subject of great importance, the selection and adaptation of a site for a hill sanitarium for that province. Experience has placed beyond all doubt the unquestionable advantages to health which judiciously chosen stations on mountain ranges in India offer ; and almost every province in India has now its hill station...

In this paper, it is proposed an enhanced algorithm for the collision resolution in shared Ethernet networks. Such algorithm, referred as high priority Binary Exponential Backoff (h-BEB), provides high priority traffic separation, enabling the support of real-time communications. To our best knowledge, the h-BEB algorithm is the first collision resolution algorithm that allows Ethernet standard...

Classes of stabilizing decentralized controllers for linear systems with plant state estimate feedback at each control station are studied. For the case when information flow between control stations is permitted with transmission delay, a class of stabilizing controllers is conveniently characterized in terms of an arbitrary proper stable transfer function, With zero delays, and thus centraliz...

Public transit systems are ideal for studying the urban microbiome and interindividual community transfer. In this study, we used 16S amplicon and shotgun metagenomic sequencing to profile microbial communities on multiple transit surfaces across train lines and stations in the Boston metropolitan transit system. The greatest determinant of microbial community structure was the transit surface ...

We present an algorithm to find optimal routes in a multi-modal public transportation network. Our model takes into account many realistic features such as walking between multi-modal stations, transfer times, traffic days, multiple objectives and finding connections between geographical locations rather than just source and destination stations. In order to provide useful routing directions, w...

The exchange of news bulletins is very popular among amateur packet radio users today. But there are currently no standardized protocols in use, and there is no widespread use of news forwarding protocols at all among amateur TCP/IP stations. This paper discusses how the Network News Transfer Protocol can be used to distribute news between stations on packet radio networks. NNTP is a standardiz...
