A Flexible quality of service model for mobile Ad-hoc networks
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2000)
Quality of service (QoS) support in Mobile Ad-hoc NETworks (MANETs) is a challenging task. Most of the proposals in the literature only address certain aspects of the QoS support, e.g., QoS routing, QoS medium access control ...
Prediction of astrophysical reaction rates : Methods, data needs, and consequences for nucleosynthesis studies
(American Institute of Physics (AIP), 2000)
The majority of nuclear reactions in astrophysics involve unstable nuclei which are not fully accessible by experiments yet. Therefore, there is high demand for reliable predictions of cross sections and reaction rates by ...
A nursing assessment tool for adults with fecal incontinence
(2000)
Fecal incontinence affects slightly more than 1% of community-dwelling adults. This article describes an assessment format, with a research basis when available, that has been developed in a specialist nursing clinic in ...

Dispersoid and grain size effects on fatigue crack growth in AA2024-type alloys
(2000-01-01)
Fatigue crack growth resistance is known to be influenced by a combination of intrinsic materials behaviour and crack shielding processes. In metallic alloys, shielding due to crack closure is known to be important, however, ...
Rank-order inhibition by ω-conotoxins in human and animal autonomic nerve preparations
(2000)
The inhibitory effects of the ω-conotoxins GVIA, MVIIA and MVIIC on electrically-evoked, tetrodotoxin (10−7 M)-sensitive, autonomic nerve activity were studied using human, rat or guinea-pig vas deferens and intestinal ...
Patients' perspectives on services for epilepsy: a survey of patient satisfaction, preferences and information provision in 2394 people with epilepsy
(2000)
The objectives of this study were to provide a comprehensive survey of satisfaction with care, care preferences and information provision for patients with epilepsy, and to formulate recommendations for the development of ...
Radiation-driven accretion disk winds
(2000)
The concept of an ‘effective' Eddington limit as a lower bound on the system luminosity required for mass loss to be radiation pressure driven is discussed and shown to fall in the interesting regime for high-state ...
