OBJECTIVE Previous studies have established that acculturation is associated with dietary intake among Mexican immigrants and their offspring, but few studies have investigated whether food purchasing, food preparation or food-related values act as mechanisms of dietary acculturation. We examine the relationship between language use and a wide range of food behaviours and food-related values am...

When Christopher Sholes created the QWERTY keyboard layout in the 1860s (often assumed to be for slowing down fast typists), few would have imagined that his invention would become the dominant input device of the 20th century. In the early years of the 21st century (the so called 'speed and information' century), its use remains dominant, despite many, arguably better, input devices having bee...

Obesity is a complex problem with many causes, from genetic and behavioral disorders to environmental factors, including access to calorie-dense fast food meals. Economists and epidemiologists disagree on the importance of access to fast food as a causal factor for obesity, but agree that any policy regulating access to fast food will likely use the price system, through taxes or other means to...

Mobile IP is designed to support uninterrupted connectivity of mobile computers as they roam from place to place. We propose a fast intra-domain and inter-domain handoff scheme using the location of routers to meet the delay and packet loss requirements of real-time services. The scheme achieves an intelligent and dynamic neighborhood discovery and avoids the use of multicast addresses in intra...
