Experiences, perceptions and ethical considerations of the malaria infection study in Thailand by Naemiratch, B, Kulpijit, N, Ruangkajorn, S, Day, NPJ, Prachumsri, J, Cheah, PY

“…We found that although compensation was a motivation for participation, this was secondary to it being beneficial to self (health checks; link to health networks; building merit) and others (medical research contribution; altruism). …”

Three essays on frictions of trade by Li, W

“…The analysis is based on an adapted gravity model with several alternative specifications for robustness checks. The result suggests that improvements on the road network lead to trade expansion on both intensive and extensive margins, but the effects vary across the regions. …”

Preparation and characterisation of smart polymer gels for wearable electronics by Shen, Clarence Xuanyi

“…The dielectric layer that was fabricated with a catechol-group polymer and Ionic Liquid, had shown healing capabilities when placed under conditions at 100°C for 10 minutes. Furthermore, a check on the capacitance value had shown that these dielectric layers functioned at above 1μF/𝑐𝑚2 at 20Hz, which are high capacitance values. …”

Multi-objectives firefly algorithm for task offloading in the edge-fog-cloud computing by A. Saif, Faten, Latip, Rohaya, Mohd Hanapi, Zurina, Kamarudin, Shafinah, Senthil Kumar, A.V., Salem Bajaher, Awadh

“…Additionally, it verifies the status of the server (on/off) before offloading; if the server is unavailable, the algorithm proceeds to check the next layer. In the second stage, the strategy employs a Multi-objective Firefly (MFA) algorithm to assign the optimal computational device within the selected layer. …”
