Mitigating the impact of node mobility using mobile backbone for heterogeneous MANETs by Xia, Yang, Yeo, Chai Kiat

“…It is observed that as the mobility of nodes increases, the performance of existing cluster based routing protocols tends to deteriorate rapidly. Although many mobility based clustering schemes have been proposed to address this problem, majority of these proposals assume the movement of nodes follows group mobility. …”

Enrichment of SWNT species with chemical approaches and mechanism investigation by Pan, Xiaoyong

“…A series of pyrene derivatives were synthesized and their separation effects on SWNTs based on the electronic properties and diameters have been demonstrated. To overcome the problem enforced by the poor dispersion with the amide-functionalized pyrene derivatives, a series of Polymethacrylates with pendant aromatic functional groups were investigated for their selectivity in SWNTs separation. …”

A methodology for multiple domain feature mapping by Lim, Seng San

“…Feature technology provides a high level representation that is capable of capturing more engineering information than conventional solid modeling techniques, such as boundary representation (Brep) and constructive solid geometry (CSG), which are commonly available in many computer-aided design (CAD) systems. The information tends to be domain specific and application dependent. …”
