A selective-abstraction modeling approach for simplifying computer network studies
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2009-12-01)
Modeling and simulation technique is an essential skill on the pathway of learning and researching computer networks. However, the complexity and scale of the network nowadays often challenges the modeling techniques, as ...
Pugilists and Greasepaint : Theatrical Encounters with a Bare-knuckle Fighter and Pantomime Clown
(2009-12)
One of the advantages of the key-wording of entries in the new British Library Manuscript Catalogue is that it facilitates the identification of plays dealing with particular issues or events. It thus allows us to build ...
The Production-Consumption-Mediation Paradigm
(2009-12-01)
This article elaborates a production–consumption–mediation (PCM) paradigm in design history, to examine both the development of design history over the past three decades and the current and future practice of design ...
Pollination biology of fruit-bearing hedgerow plants and the role of flower-visiting insects in fruit-set
(2009-12)
In the UK, the flowers of fruit-bearing hedgerow plants provide a succession of pollen and nectar for flower-visiting insects for much of the year. The fruits of hedgerow plants are a source of winter food for frugivorous ...
The LABOCA Survey of the Extended Chandra Deep Field South
(2009-12)
We present a sensitive 870 micron survey of the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS) using LABOCA on the APEX telescope. The LABOCA ECDFS Submillimetre Survey (LESS) covers the full 30' x 30' field size of the ECDFS ...
Le Paradoxe de l’incertitiude : Quand moins signife plus
(2009-12)
Le récent écroulement de Wall Street et d’autres places financières illustre le revers de la médaille des opportunités et des potentialités. Le 29 septembre 2008, à la suite de quelques liquidations mineures dans les bourses ...
The influence of Ammonia on the electrical properties of detonation nanodiamond
(2009-12-01)
Detonation nanodiamonds (DNDs) are an interesting class of materials for sensing applications, but little is currently understood about their electrical properties. Here, aggregated DNDs are explored with impedance ...
Doing interdisciplinarity : motivation and collaboration in research for sustainable agriculture in the UK
(2009-12)
This paper studies knowledge production in complex, collaborative research projects that brought together academics from different disciplines, research users and agricultural businesses. It takes a comparative approach, ...
Burst-polling based dynamic bandwidth allocation using adaptive minimum guaranteed bandwidth for EPONs
(2009-12)
The enhanced burst-polling dynamic bandwidth allocation (EBDBA) method is proposed to support broadband access networks based on quality of service for Ethernet passive optical networks (EPONs). EBDBA adaptively increases ...
The interactions of winds from massive young stellar objects : X-ray emission, dynamics and cavity evolution
(2009-12-01)
Two-dimensional axis-symmetric hydrodynamical simulations are presented which explore the interaction of stellar and disc winds with surrounding infalling cloud material. The star and its accompanying disc blow winds inside ...
