Time Slot Detection-Based M -ary Tree Anticollision Identification Protocol for RFID Tags in the Internet of Things

Recently, a number of articles have proposed query tree algorithms based on bit tracking to solve the multitag collision problem in radio frequency identification systems. However, these algorithms still have problems such as idle slots and redundant prefixes. In this paper, a time slot detection-based M-ary tree (Time Slot Detection based M-ary tree, TSDM) tag anticollision algorithm has been proposed. When a collision occurs, the reader sends a predetection command to detect the distribution of the m-bit ID in the 2 subslots; then, the time slot after predetection is processed according to the format of the frame-like. The idle time slots have been eliminate through the detection. Using a frame-like mode, only the frame start command carries parameters, and the other time slot start commands do not carry any parameters, thereby reducing the communication of each interaction. Firstly, the research status of the anticollision algorithm is summarized, and then the TSDM algorithm is explained in detail. Finally, through theoretical analysis and simulation, it is proved that the time cost of the TSDM algorithm proposed in this paper is reduced by 12.57%, the energy cost is reduced by 12.65%, and the key performance outperforms the other anticollision algorithms.
Rapid muscle activation changes across a competitive collegiate female soccer season

Objective: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a competitive soccer season on rapid activation properties of the knee extensors and flexors in Division II female soccer players. Methods: Eighteen collegiate female soccer players participated in the present study, however, due to injuries during the season a final sample of 16 players were included for study analysis. Participants performed two maximal voluntary isometric contractions (MVICs) of the knee extensors and flexors before, during, and at the end of a competitive college soccer season. Electromyography root mean square (EMG RMS; µV), rate of EMG rise (RER; %Peak EMG•s-1), and electromechanical delay (EMD; ms) were examined on both legs for the knee extensors and flexors. Results: EMG RMS at early time intervals (0-50, 0-100, and 50-100 ms) and RER at 0-75 ms for the knee extensors and flexors significantly increased from the pre-season to the end of the season (P≤0.010-0.026, η2=0.36-0.81). EMD of the knee flexors significantly decreased at the mid-season and the end of the season compared to the pre-season (P<0.001, η2=0.95). Conclusions: These findings may have important implications for monitoring improvements on thigh neuromuscular activation and developing lower extremity injury prevention strategies during a competitive collegiate female soccer season.
A Microkinetic Analysis of the Water–Gas Shift Reaction under Industrial Conditions

Abstract To form the basis for a microkinetic understanding of the low-temperature water–gas shift reaction over Cu-based catalysts as operated industrially, the kinetics have been measured under a wide range of reaction conditions. To elucidate possible support effects the reaction was studied over catalysts of Cu supported on Al2O3, SiO2, or mixed ZnO/Al2O3. The proposed microkinetic model is based on a “surface redox” mechanism deduced from Cu single-crystal studies. All the input data for the elementary steps were taken from available Cu single-crystal studies and the total number of sites was the only free parameter in the microkinetic analysis. It was found to be important especially at high pressure to include in the mechanism the synthesis and hydrogenation of formate. The different dependencies of the overall kinetics have also been evaluated by a power law kinetic model, which was found to give an excellent representation of the kinetic data. It is seen that in spite of the severe constraints placed on the microkinetic model it could account for many of the important kinetic dependencies of the industrial water–gas shift reaction over the different Cu-based catalysts. Furthermore, the deduced number of active sites agrees well with the initial Cu surface area of the reduced catalysts determined separately by H2-TPD suggesting that the model is also satisfactory for describing quantitatively the magnitude of the rates. Thus, a good starting point in interpreting the water–gas shift kinetics is to consider the catalysis occurring solely on the metallic Cu particles in the catalysts. The nature of the support may, however, have important secondary roles. For example, dynamic restructuring of the Cu particles may take place by changing the synthesis conditions and may depend on the nature of the support, as recently evidenced in separate EXAFS experiments.
Metadata of the chapter that will be visualized online Chapter Title Assessment Techniques in the Study of Time Perspective and Subjective Time : From Qualitative to Quantitative Assessment

Research on time perspective (TP) has struggled with several conceptual and methodological problems. One of the consistently identified shortcomings is the scarcity of reliable psychological assessment instruments. In this chapter, the authors provide a critical analysis concerning the methodological evolution of the assessment of the subjective temporality, and briefly describe some of the most representative measures. While most assessment efforts were initially set on the use of qualitative procedures, current research studies and conceptual developments are mainly founded on the use of quantitative assessment instruments providing several measurement indicators. There are, however, some remaining issues that must be addressed concerning the construction and development of innovative assessment procedures used in the understanding of the impact of subjective temporality constructs on individual and social behavior.
Advergames Aiming Children in Turkey: A Content Analysis of 65 Advergames Advergames Aiming Children in Turkey: A Content Analysis of 65 Advergames

Turkiye, rmyetkin@akdeniz.edu. tr bRes. Assist. , Akdeniz University, Faculty of Economics and Administrative Sciences, Department of Business Administration, Antalya, Turkiye, duyguaydin@akdeniz.edu. tr Abstract: The purpose of this study is to examine advergame practices of top performing companies targeting children and operating in Turkey. Top 500 leading companies operating in Turkey was determined. Among them, websites of the companies targeting children were analysed and the prevalence of advergames integrated in the Websites of these companies was evaluated by conducting content analysis according to the determined features from an extensive literature review. Among top 500 leading companies, only 10 companies, which are all operating in the food-beverage industry, integrated a total of 84 advergames on their Web sites. However, only 65 advergames of 8 companies were reached in the coding process. The results demonstrated that the companies operating in Turkey do not use advergames extensively and these games are lack of many features of advergames. A content analysis of advergames has not yet been conducted in Turkey. By introducing Persuasion Knowledge Model and the model of Processing of Commercial Media Content, the present paper provided a different approach for evaluating the effects of various features of advergames on children.
Caching Policies for Delay Minimization in Small Cell Networks With Coordinated Multi-Point Joint Transmissions

In 5G and beyond network architectures, operators and content providers base their content distribution strategies on Heterogeneous Networks, where macro and small cells are combined to offer better Quality of Service to wireless users. On top of such networks, edge caching and Coordinated Multi-Point (CoMP) joint transmissions are used to further improve performance. In this paper, we address the average delay minimization problem by first formulating it as a static optimization problem. Even though the problem is NP-hard we are able to solve it via an efficient algorithm that guarantees a $\frac {1}{2}$ -approximation ratio. We then proceed to propose two fully distributed and dynamic caching policies for the same problem. The first one asymptotically converges to the static optimal solution under the Independent Reference Model (IRM). The second one provides better results in practice under real (non-stationary) request processes. Our online policies outperform existing dynamic solutions that are PHY-unaware.
Insight into Stagnating Life Expectancy: Analysing Cause of Death Patterns across Socio-economic Groups

This article analyzes the complexity of female longevity improvements. As socio-economic status is found to influence health and mortality, we partition all individuals, at each age in every year, into five socio-economic groups based on an affluence measure that combine an individual’s income and wealth. We identify the particular socio-economic groups that have been driving the standstill for Danish females. Within each socio-economic group, we further analyze the cause of death patterns. The decline in life expectancy for Danish females is present for four out of five subgroups, however with particular large decreases for the low-middle and middle affluence groups. Cancers, smoking related causes, and other diseases particularly contribute to the stagnation. Moreover, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are found to be important for capturing the following catch-up in longevity. JEL classification: J11; C53; G22
Microsoft Word-DDAH-1 JPET- Fast Forward.docx

Multiple clinical and preclinical studies have demonstrated that plasma levels of asymmetric dimethylarginine (ADMA) are strongly associated with hypertension, diabetes, cardiovascular and renal disease. Genetic studies in rodents have provided evidence that ADMA metabolizing dimethylarginine dimethylaminohydrolase (DDAH-1) plays a role in hypertension and cardiovascular disease. However, it remains to be established whether ADMA is a bystander, biomarker or sufficiently contributes to the pathogenesis of hypertension, and cardiovascular and renal disease. The goal of the present investigation was to develop a pharmacological molecule to specifically lower This article has not been copyedited and formatted.

Low-frequency Raman spectroscopy of n-alcohols. LAM vibration and crystal structure

Low-frequency Raman spectra of even and odd n-alcohols have been recorded. The longitudinal acoustic modes (LAM) are described, and the effects of hydrogen-bonding, chain length, and temperature on the frequencies of these vibrations are discussed. The frequencies of the LAMs are interpreted in terms of the one-dimensional crystal model of Minoni and Zerbi and also ab initio calculations on isolated single chains. The low-frequency LAM-1 mode of the hydrogen-bonded dimer exhibited an odd−even effect, and to gain insight into this, the crystal structures of the C17 and C20 alcohols were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffractometry. C17H35OH packs in the β form, with half the oxygen atoms trans and half gauche, with respect to the alkyl chains. C20H41OH adopts an all trans conformation and the packing is in the γ form. The hydrogen-bonding interactions differ in the two structures. We therefore ascribe the odd−even effect in the LAM-1 frequencies to an odd−even effect in crystal structure.

Food consumption frequency and perceived stress and depressive symptoms among female university students in the UAE

Background This study assessed whether perceived stress and depressive symptoms were associated with the frequency of consumption of specific food groups among female university students. Methods A cross-sectional study was conducted among female university students using a simple random sampling method. The response rate was 97% yielded a total number of 385 participants. The associations between stress levels and the most/least consumed food groups, and between depressive symptoms levels and the most/least consumed food groups were assessed. The questionnaire included a 12-item self-administered food frequency questionnaire, Cohen’s Perceived Stress Scale, and Beck Depression Inventory-II. The study was approved by the University Ethical Committee before data collection. One-way Analysis of Variance (ANOVA) and the independent-sample t-test were carried out to test the equality of population means across the categories of each independent variable depending on the number of categories of the independent variable. Results Overall, this group of female university students fell under the mild mood disturbance category (depressive symptoms) (BDI-II) and had moderate perceived stress (PSS). Perceived stress was associated with more frequent consumption of salad/raw vegetables and cooked vegetables, and less frequent consumption of cake/cookies and meat/sausage products (p < .05). Additionally, depressive symptoms were associated with less frequent consumption of fresh fruits and more consumption of fast food/canned food and soft drinks (p < .05). Conclusions The data showed that stress and depression were associated with different dietary preferences consistent with distinctions between stress and depression on human behavior. Specifically, the results revealed associations between soft drinks consumption and higher depressive symptoms, and between frequent consumption of salad/raw vegetables and cooked vegetables and higher perceived stress among this group of female university students.
Boundary-Aware Refined Network for Automatic Building Extraction in Very High-Resolution Urban Aerial Images

Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), such as U-Net, have shown competitive performance in the automatic extraction of buildings from Very High-Resolution (VHR) aerial images. However, due to the unstable multi-scale context aggregation, the insufficient combination of multi-level features and the lack of consideration of the semantic boundary, most existing CNNs produce incomplete segmentation for large-scale buildings and result in predictions with huge uncertainty at building boundaries. This paper presents a novel network with a special boundary-aware loss embedded, called the Boundary-Aware Refined Network (BARNet), to address the gap above. The unique properties of the proposed BARNet are the gated-attention refined fusion unit, the denser atrous spatial pyramid pooling module, and the boundary-aware loss. The performance of the BARNet is tested on two popular data sets that include various urban scenes and diverse patterns of buildings. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method outperforms several state-of-the-art approaches in both visual interpretation and quantitative evaluations.
High‐temperature pyrolysis of poly(vinyl chloride): Gas chromatographic‐mass spectrometric analysis of the pyrolysis products from PVC resin and plastisols

A pyrolysis–gas chromatographic–mass spectrometric technique for analyzing the pyrolysis products from polymers in an inert atmosphere is described. Initial studies encompassing the pyrolysis of poly(vinyl chloride) homopolymer and a series of PVC plastisols (based on o-phthalate esters) have provided a complete qualitative and semi-quantitative analysis of the pyrolysis products from these materials. PVC resin yields a series of aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons when pyrolyzed at 600°C; the amount of aromatic products is greater than the amount of aliphatic products. Benzene is the major organic degradation product. A typical PVC plastisol [PVC/o-dioctyl phthalate (100/60)] yields, upon pyrolysis, products that are characteristic of both the PVC matrix and the phthalate plasticizer. The pyrolysis products from the plasticizer dilute those from the PVC portion of the plastisol and are, in turn, the major degradation products. There are no degradation products resulting from an interaction of the PVC with the plastisol. The pyrograms resulting from pyrolysis of the various plastisols of PVC can be used for purposes of “fingerprinting. ” Identification of the major peaks in a typical plastisol pyrogram provides information leading to a precise identification of the plasticizer. The pyrolysis data from this study were related to a special case of flammability and toxicity.
Multilingualism from a language acquisition perspective

This chapter conceptualizes and discusses two subtypes ofmultilingualism, namely, (a) third language acquisition in learners who have prior experience in acquiring one or more non-native languages, and (b) subsequent language acquisition in learners who are bilingual from an early age. The chapter also discusses the roles played by age (both biological age and age of onset) and proficiency in multilingual acquisition. As regards age, the discussion focuses primarily on two aspects, namely, differential effects in instructed and naturalistic contexts, and the apparent superiority of older learners and late starters against younger learners and early starters. It is stressed that further research is necessary in order to identify and single out the particularities of L3 acquisition for learners with prior experience in the concurrent or consecutive learning of one or more non-native languages. Likewise, the chapter highlights the need to obtain a deeper understanding of how age-related differences in the level of linguistic entrenchment in multilinguals constrain L3 learning after exposure to additional languages. With respect to the proficiency factor, it is argued that it is important to consider proficiency thresholds and to tease apart the distinctive effects of proficiency in the target language (the L3) and in the background languages when exploring linguistic development among multilinguals. These distinctive effects are also relevant for understanding crosslinguistic influence in L3 acquisition, above all in determining the potential source languages and the direction of this influence.
Modelling of the Extraction of Uranium with Supercritical Carbon Dioxide

A model is presented for the analysis of the results of extraction of uranium in a flow system by supercritical fluid modified with tributylphosphate from a nitric acid matrix, in which the extraction is not limited by the solubility of the uranium species. The model used is that of diffusion out of a sphere into a medium in which the extracted uranium is infinitely dilute. Although not a completely accurate representation of the liquid-supercritical fluid system, the model is shown to be a reasonable representation and some conclusions discussed.
CAMA Centre for Applied Macroeconomic Analysis Commodity Price Volatility , Fiscal Balance and Real Interest Rate CAMA Working Paper 79 / 2020 September 2020

The objective of this study is to explore the impact of commodity price volatility on the governments’ fiscal balance. Using a dynamic panel data model for 108 countries from 1993 to 2018, this study finds that governments’ fiscal balance deteriorates with commodity price volatility. A one standard deviation increase in commodity price volatility leads to a reduction of approximately 0.04 units in the fiscal balance as a percentage of gross domestic product. In addition, we examine the role of real interest rates in influencing the relationship between commodity price volatility and fiscal balance. The empirical results suggest that the negative impact of commodity price volatility on fiscal balance can be mitigated with lower real interest rate.
Axially dissymmetric bis(triaryl)phosphines in the biphenyl series: synthesis of (6,6'-dimethylbiphenyl-2,2'-diyl)bis(diphenylphosphine) (BIPHEMP) and analogues, and their use in Rh(I)-catalyzed asymmetric isomerizations of N,N-diethylnerylamine

The axially dissymmetric diphosphines (−)-(R)- and (+)-(S)-(6-6′-dimethylbiphenyl-2,2′-diyl)bis(diphenyl-phosphine) ((−)-(R)-10 and (+)-(S)-10; ‘BIPHEMP’) have been synthesized, starting from (R)- and (S)-6,6′-dimethylbiphenyl-2,2′-diamine ((R)- and(S)-16), respectively, via Sandmeyer reaction, liathiation, and phosphinylation. Moreover, racemic 4,4′- dimethyl- and 4,4′-bis(dimethylamino)-substituted analogues 11 and 12 respectively, and the 6,6′-bridged analogues 1,11-bis(diphenylphosphino)-5,7-dihydrodibenz[c,e]oxepin (13) were synthesized and resolved into optically pure (R)- and(S)-enantiomers via complexation with di-μ-chlorob is {(R)-2-[1-(dimethylamino)ethyl]pheny-CN}dipalladium(II) ((R)-18). The molecular structures of the diphosphines (S)-10 and (R)-13 and of two derived cationic Rh(I) complexes,[Rh((S)- 10)(nbd)]BF4 and [Rh((R)- 13)(nbd)]BF4 were determined by x-ray analyses. Absolute configurations were established for (+)-(S)- 10 by X-ray analyses of both the free diphosphine and of the derived Rh(I) complex, and for (−)-(R)- 13 by X-ray analysis of the derived Rh(I) complex. Configurational assignments for the substituted BIPHEMP analogues 1112 were achieved by means of 1H-NMR comparisons. The BIPHEMP ligand 10 and analogues 11, 12 and 13 are the first examples of optically active bis(triaylphosphines) containing the axially dissymmetric biphenyl moiety. All these new diphosphines proved to be excellent asymmetry-inducing ligands in Rh(I)-catalyzed isomerizations of N,N-diethylnerylamine affording citronellat enamine of 98-99% ee.
