Security study in wimax mesh networks by Muhammad Ashaari Ariff.

“…WiMax Mesh mode allows direct communication between Subscriber Stations (SS) without the need of the Base Station (BS), thus improved network coverage. In Multi hop wireless systems such as WiMax Mesh Networks, security emerges as a vital requirement from the threats of both Malicious Sponsor Node (SN) and Candidate Node (CN). …”

Bayesian optimization enhanced deep reinforcement learning for trajectory planning and network formation in multi-UAV networks by Gong, Shimin, Wang, Meng, Gu, Bo, Zhang, Wenjie, Hoang, Dinh Thai, Niyato, Dusit

“…Different UAVs can adapt their trajectories and network formation to expedite data transmissions via multi-hop relaying. The trajectory planning aims to collect all GUs' data, while the UAVs' network formation optimizes the multi-hop UAV network topology to minimize the energy consumption and transmission delay. …”

Learning on heterogeneous graphs using high-order relations by Lee, See Hian, Ji, Feng, Tay, Wee Peng

“…These representations preserve the heterogeneity of edges and retain their edge directions while capturing the interaction of different vertex types multiple hops apart. This is then complemented with attention mechanisms to distinguish the importance of the relation-type based neighbors and the relation-types themselves. …”

Behave The Biology of Humans at Our Best and Worst / by Sapolsky, Robert M., author 656050, Penguin Random House (Online service) 655978

“…Sapolsky's storytelling concept is delightful but it also has a powerful intrinsic logic: he starts by looking at the factors that bear on a person's reaction in the precise moment a behavior occurs, and then hops back in time from there, in stages, ultimately ending up at the deep history of our species and its evolutionary legacy. …”

Encapsulation of probiotics for food and beverage applications by Ang, Kai Lin

“…Up to date, no studies have been done to examine the viability of probiotics in popular, well-liked, commercialized carbonated sodas/beers, but it is known that certain components in these matrices (e.g. phosphoric acid in soda, hops and ethanol in beers) can reduce the viability of probiotics. …”

Presence of host-seeking Ixodes ricinus and their infection with Borrelia burgdorferi sensu lato in the Northern Apennines, Italy by Ragagli, C, Mannelli, A, Ambrogi, C, Bisanzio, D, Ceballos, LA, Grego, E, Martello, E, Selmi, M, Tomassone, L

“…Greatest numbers of ticks were collected at locations characterised by southern exposure and limestone substratum, at altitudes <1400 m asl; I. ricinus was most abundant in Turkey oak (Quercus cerris) wood, whereas H. punctata was mostly collected in hop hornbeam (Ostrya carpinifolia) wood and on exposed rocks. …”

Performance comparison of time slot allocation schemes in TDD-CDMA multihop cellular networks by Arabshahi, Maryam, Hong, Lei, Chong, Peter Han Joo

“…We propose time slot allocation schemes for TDD-CDMA MCNs and compare them with conventional schemes used in TDD-CDMA single-hop cellular networks in terms of users’ data rate and maximum capacity in different symmetric and asymmetric traffic scenarios. …”

Effects of kinesio taping on Hamstring-to-quadriceps ratio on non-injured female amateur competitive team sports athletes by Tan, Priscilla Hui Yee

“…They had to be free from injuries in the past 6 months and have a Hecc:Qcon ratio at 180°/s less than 0.96 on the non-dominant leg. 4 dependent variables were measured, Hecc:Qcon ratio at 180°/s and 240°/s, the maximum distance for the single-leg triple hop jump (THJ) and the maximum height for the double-leg countermovement jump. …”

Entropic centrality for non-atomic flow networks by Oggier, Frédérique, Phetsouvanh, Silivanxay, Datta, Anwitaman

“…Given a graph, the notion of entropic centrality was introduced by Tutzauer to characterize vertices which are important in the sense that there is a high uncertainty about the destination of an atomic flow starting at them, assuming that at each hop, the flow is equally likely to continue to any unvisited vertex, or to be terminated there. …”
