description: The Wireless Adhoc Networks (WANETs) are decentralized network with no infrastructure and access point to
control the nodes. Since the topologies in WANETs are dynamic the routing becomes the challenging task as
nodes are moving with low bandwidth and traditional routing algorithm doesn’t work with WANETs. This
paper gives the systematic literature review of techniques and routing algorithm that exists in WANETs, also the
applicability of Swarm Intelligence (SI) in MANETs. The aim of performing the survey is to gain better knowledge of
Swarm Intelligence and techniques that are applied to the WANETs.

description: This study attempts to identify the impacts of land tenure institutions on the efficiency of farm management based on a case study of lowland paddy (rice) and upland cinnamon production in customary land areas of Sumatra. While the traditional joint‐family ownership system is found to exist in paddy land, more individualised ownership systems are widely observed in upland areas. Yet, we found no statistical evidence that residual profit per unit of land is affected by land tenure institutions in either the lowlands or uplands, indicating that the prevailing land tenure institutions are equally conducive to efficient farm management.

description: The River Values Assessment System (RiVAS and RiVAS+) are tools that enable regional councils and others to ‘objectively’ and systematically evaluate rivers in their regions for their relative importance across the range of river values (e.g., native birds, irrigation and tangata whenau). RiVAS (which assesses existing importance) has been applied to 11 values, and to a large number of these in each of three regions (Tasman, Gisborne and Hawke’s Bay). RiVAS+ (restoration potential) has had limited application. There are multiple insights from these applications. First, RiVAS and RiVAS+ are highly cost effective. At around $6000 per value-application councils obtain: a collaborative approach resulting in stronger relationships between councils and stakeholder groups; up to date (and user friendly and accessible) information on value-related data often never collected otherwise; lists of rivers ranked according to national (high), regional (moderate) and low (importance) using the same method; indications of where the best prospects for restoration activities exist; and information that is immediately useful in the broader policy making processes. The paper reports also on the strengths, weaknesses, threats and opportunities associated with ongoing application of the tool.

description: We present a factorization formula for valence quark distributions in a hadron in x-->1 limit. For the example of pion, we arrive at the form of factorization by analyzing momentum flow in the leading and high-order Feynman diagrams. The result confirms the well-known 1-x scaling rule to all orders in perturbation theory, providing the non-perturbative matrix elements for the infrared-divergence factors. We comment on re-summation of perturbative single and double logarithms in 1-x.

description: Resource Management's Act current “first come first served” method of distributing water rights is fast becoming inadequate to handle this increasingly over-allocated factor of production. Water markets or tariffs are one way to achieve allocative efficiency. To establish such markets or tariffs, it is imperative to estimate users’ responses to having, for the first time, to pay for this currently largely unpriced input. This study seeks to provide a viable “starting point” estimate of the response curve to water price tariffs of dairy farmers – NZ’s largest fresh water consumers – using the MPI dairy monitoring dataset. This paper suggests that under the assumptions of inelastic input substitutability, the farms’ supply curves can provide an approximation of the farms’ responses to at-site (irrigation cost inclusive) changes of water costs.

description: A duality property for star products is exhibited. In view of it, known star-product schemes, like the Weyl-Wigner-Moyal formalism, the Husimi and the Glauber-Sudarshan maps are revisited and their dual partners elucidated. The tomographic map, which has been recently described as yet another star product scheme, is considered. It yields a noncommutative algebra of operator symbols which are positive definite probability distributions. Through the duality symmetry a new noncommutative algebra of operator symbols is found, equipped with a new star product. The kernel of the new star product is established in explicit form and examples are considered.

description: The main objective of this paper is to improve the communication costs in distributed quantum circuits. To this end, we present a method for generating distributed quantum circuits from monolithic quantum circuits in such a way that communication between partitions of a distributed quantum circuit is minimized. Thus, the communication between distributed components is performed at a lower cost. Compared to existing works, our approach can effectively map a quantum circuit into an appropriate number of distributed components. Since teleportation is usually the protocol used to connect components in a distributed quantum circuit, our approach ultimately reduces the number of teleportations. The results of applying our approach to the benchmark quantum circuits determine its effectiveness and show that partitioning is a necessary step in constructing distributed quantum circuit.

description: The aim of this investigation is to computationally analyse the effect of micromagnetorotation on flow characteristics within magneto-micropolar flows. To the authors' knowledge such consideration has not been discussed in the literature in present context. The assumption in literature that the magnetization is parallel to the applied magnetic field is incorrect due to the anisotropic nature of micropolar flows. This allows to re-investigate the micropolar flows in the present of micromagnetorotation. To this end, the theory of magneto-micropolar flows is briefly described and a computational model governing the system dynamics is presented. Finite element code in FreeFem++ is developed and validated through an exact solution. It turns out that the numerical findings obtained are in strong agreement with the analytical results. The results obtained are significant because they can assist researchers in allied fields of electronics, materials science and biomedical engineering in finding solutions to a variety of real-world issues.
Identification of an Extended Accretion Disk Corona in the Hercules X-1 Low State: Moderate Optical Depth, Precise Density Determination, and Verification of CNO Abundances

description: We identify an accretion disk atmosphere and corona from the high resolution X-ray spectrum of Hercules X-1, and we determine its detailed physical properties. More than two dozen recombination emission lines (from Fe XXVI at 1.78 A to N VI at 29.08 A) and Fe K-alpha, K-beta fluorescence lines were detected in a 50 ks observation with the Chandra High-Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer (HETGS). They allow us to measure the density, temperature, spatial distribution, elemental composition, and kinematics of the plasma. We exclude HZ Her as the source of the recombination emission. We compare accretion disk model atmospheres with the observed spectrum in order to constrain the stratification of density and ionization, disk atmosphere area, elemental composition, and energetics. The atmospheric spectrum observed during the low state is photoionized by the main-on X-ray continuum, indicating that the disk is observed edge-on during the low state. We infer the mean number of scatterings N of Ly-alpha and Ly-beta line photons from H-like ions. We derive N < 69 for O VIII Ly_alpha_1, which rules out the presence of a mechanism modeled by Sako (2003) to enhance N VII emission via a line overlap with O VIII. The line optical depth diagnostics are consistent with a flattened atmosphere. Our spectral analysis, the disk atmosphere model, and the presence of intense N VII and N VI lines (plus N V in the UV), confirm the over-abundance of nitrogen relative to other metals, which was shown to be indicative of CNO cycle processing in a massive progenitor.

Lessons learned in capacity : a review of the community development education projects of the Social Planning & Research Council of British Columbia
Creators: name: Welch, Danyta Leigh
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: In rural areas across British Columbia capacity building is seen as an answer to declining economic, social and ecological conditions and regional capacity building organizations are delivering community development education projects in response. However, not enough is known about how community development education projects or regional organizations contribute to capacity building in rural regions. The intent of this thesis is to learn from the experience of Social Planning & Research Council of BC (SPARC BC) about the ways regional capacity building organizations can use community development education to positively impact capacity building in rural regions such as those in BC. A review of SPARC BC materials was conducted to locate SPARC BC within capacity building typologies identified in the literature. A questionnaire was administered to SPARC BC's project participants to gain an understanding of how its approaches to community development education impacted capacity building. Questionnaire findings were interpreted in consultation with SPARC staff. This thesis draws conclusions at three levels. First, the questionnaire highlights the experience of community members and demonstrates that SPARC BC's workshops were well-received, with the most impact being seen at the level of community relationship building. Second, by combining these findings with evaluations of two other projects, a number of themes are exposed, including the need for understanding community context, providing follow-up, and recognizing the diversity of each community. Third, the questionnaire and themes are used to explore the lessons that have been learned and which inform regional capacity building organizations providing community development education. Two of the lessons, encouraging community ownership and recognizing the iterative nature of capacity building, speak directly to the long-term nature of delivering community development education, while the lessons of diversity and transparency suggest improvements to how regional organizations work with communities. The final lessons of reflection and collaboration speak to the internal operations of capacity building organizations. Overall, the lessons learned from SPARC BC suggest that regional capacity building organizations have an important role to play and that increased reflection on both the process and outcomes of capacity building projects could strengthen community development education in rural regions.

description: The Government of Indonesia is committed to cut its emissions by 26% by 2020. In forestry sector, this is done through reducing emissions from deforestation and forest degradation (REDD) program. One of several pilot activities of the REDD Program is the Berau Forest Carbon Program (BFCP) which is located in the Berau District East Kalimantan Indonesia. The Program attempts to generate behavioural changes of the forests stakeholders like forest-dependent community, forestry/logging company and oil palm plantation company to contribute to the emissions reduction, which is formulated in the Program‟s strategies. Changes of these behaviours are reflected in the costs being borne by the relevant forest stakeholders as well as the incentive rewarded for engaging in the programme. This paper focuses on the dataset preparation i.e. the Berau District Social Accounting Matrix for CGE modeling analysis of the above context. A non survey method was employed to generate the regional accounts and was it combined with available data as well as experts‟ estimates.

description: Globally, it is evident that vaccination and social media significantly influence the spread of diseases. Research has demonstrated that the spread of diseases can be affected by unforeseen events. Therefore, a stochastic hepatitis B virus (HBV) dynamical model is constructed that incorporates media coverage, while also Lévy noise is included. Itô's formula and the Lyapunov function approach are employed to analyze the existence of a positive global solution. Furthermore, the necessary conditions for disease eradication as well as long-term survival are also established to facilitate the general understanding. The statistics indicate that the media's impact is not immediate and does not lead to disease eradication. To effectively manage the spread of diseases, it is essential to employ a combination of significant noise disruption and a low rate of decline in vaccine effectiveness. Numerical simulations are conducted to demonstrate the analytical findings.

description: We analyze the computational complexity of problems related to case-based planning: planning when a plan for a similar instance is known, and planning from a library of plans. We prove that planning from a single case has the same complexity than generative planning (i.e., planning "from scratch"); using an extended definition of cases, complexity is reduced if the domain stored in the case is similar to the one to search plans for. Planning from a library of cases is shown to have the same complexity. In both cases, the complexity of planning remains, in the worst case, PSPACE-complete.

description: A market failure exists in the supply of industry-good goods and services with characteristics of non-rivalry and non-excludability. Compulsory levy frameworks are one form of intervention that governments use to address this market failure. Key components of the New Zealand levy framework, the Commodity Levies Act 1990 (the CLA) are described. The CLA is then evaluated against the criteria of accountability, effectiveness, efficiency and fairness. Some key aspects of the Australian, United Kingdom (UK) and Canadian frameworks are also considered. The CLA is found to be strong on accountability, and to place strong performance incentives on industry organisations. The CLA is found to be fair to small and large-scale producers, and its flexibility enables efficiencies in administration and management of industry organisations.

description: Human capital development, especially higher educational attainment attaches high premium to human skills as an important factor of production. In view of this, the objective of the study is defined in two folds; first, to revisit returns to education in Nigeria and second, to investigate effects of education on the economic welfare of households in Nigeria. The study uses Double Hurdle (DH) model and Quantile Regression (QR), respectively for the objective one and two. Thus, our findings show that returns to schooling (i.e., labour market earnings) at primary, secondary and postgraduate levels are very low relative to schooling at the tertiary education in Nigeria. Also, we find the effects of primary, secondary and postgraduate education on household economic welfare to be substantially lower compared with that of tertiary education in the country. The implication of these findings is that investment up to completing tertiary education is vital for higher welfare through increasing labour market earnings among households in Nigeria.

description: In this paper, we report the new results of spectroscopic observations of $γ$-ray blazar S5 0716+714 from 2019 September to 2020 March with the 2.4 m optical telescope at Lijiang Observatory of Yunnan Observatories. The median cadence of observations is $\sim$ 1 day. During the second observation period (Epoch2), the observational data reveal an extremely bright state and a bluer-when-brighter (BWB) chromatism. The BWB trend of Epoch2 differs significantly from that of the first observation period (Epoch1). A significantly brightness-dependent BWB chromatism emerges in the total data of Epoch1 and Epoch2. The BWB trend becomes weaker towards the brighter states, and likely becomes saturated at the highest state. Based on a log-parabolic function, a power-law of synchrotron peak flux and frequency $ν_{\rm{p}}$, and a power-law of the curvature of synchrotron spectrum and its $ν_{\rm{p}}$, simulation well reproduces the brightness-dependent BWB trend of S5 0716+714. The BWB trend is seemingly controlled by the shift of $ν_{\rm{p}}$ with respect to the observational window, and effectively may be dominated by the variations of electron average energy and magnetic field in emitting region.

description: The Tardigrade (meaning: “Slow Stepper”), also known as a water bear or moss piglet, is a microscopic animal that can survive in the most ridiculous and extreme environmental conditions (including the vacuum of space). In fact, they are the most resilient animal known to exist. With four pairs of legs, four to eight claws on each leg, and a segmented body formation, the Tardigrade can survive without food or water for more than 30 years at which point they can revive from a state of holding only 3% of their original body water and continue living and reproducing once re-hydrated. Besides their talent for survival, this animal is also fascinating to me from a purely physical standpoint.
This work accompanies the Tardigrade as we delve into the microscopic world of moss and lichen to observe its detail as well as follow this remarkable slow stepping warrior through its paces.

description: The paper describes an innovative approach to stakeholder consultation about agricultural land uses and water quality in rural waterways. In mid-2012 the authors prepared a number of policy scenarios from published regional council planning documents, addressing sediment, nutrients and pathogens. These examples were intended to stimulate stakeholders to consider the attributes that they desired in the regional council interventions to be included in the next regional plan. Stakeholders from a range of agricultural and environmental organisations were invited to attend a one-day workshop. At the workshop they reviewed the proposed policy problem and objective, as well as the policy scenarios. Workshop participants then used post-it® notes to complete a template that described the attributes underlying the policy scenarios. The results were used to describe areas of convergence between the different stakeholder groups and areas where there were differences. These results are now being used in the next phase of the regional plan for the Wellington Region.

description: The National Policy Statement on Freshwater Management now requires that water quality objectives and limits be set for all water bodies in New Zealand. Where objectives result in the development of nitrate limits for waterways and development pressure is likely to make these limits difficult to achieve, systems are needed to avoid over-allocation. This paper proposes a multi-level governance model for managing this load over time, with a focus on community self-governance and building a flexible system for managing leaching risk, given the very high levels of uncertainty in linking nutrient losses to objectives.

description: We demonstrate the use of a piezoelectric actuator to apply, at low temperatures, uniaxial stress in the plane of a two-dimensional electron system confined to a modulation-doped AlAs quantum well. Via the application of stress, which can be tuned in situ and continuously, we control the energies and occupations of the conduction-band minima and the electronic properties of the electron system. We also report measurements of the longitudinal and transverse strain versus bias for the actuator at 300, 77, and 4.2 K. A pronounced hysteresis is observed at 300 and 77 K, while at 4.2 K, strain is nearly linear and shows very little hysteresis with the applied bias.

description: This paper describes a multi-agent system (MAS) model, Desktop MAS, designed for New Zealand‟s pastoral industries. Desktop MAS models the strategic decisions and behaviours of individual farmers in response to changes in their operating environment. Farmer responses determine production, economic and environmental outcomes. Each farmer has a profit-maximising or cost-minimising objective that governs their decision-making, and a social network with whom they interact. Information transfer between farmers occurs through this social network. We consider a simple scenario analysis that investigates the impact of emissions prices on industry mix and farming intensity. We then investigate the importance of farmer behaviours and interaction. We find that farmer social networks and objectives impact particularly on farming intensity decisions within land-use industries. Land-use change between industries becomes more sensitive to farmer attitudes as the profitability differential between land-uses narrows.

description: We show that any arbitrary time-dependent density operator of an open system can always be described in terms of an operator-sum representation regardless of its initial condition and the path of its evolution in the state space, and we provide a general expression of Kraus operators for arbitrary time-dependent density operator of an $N$-dimensional system. Moreover, applications of our result are illustrated through several examples.

title: Studies on cell adhesion in relation to immune responses
Creators: name: Gallagher, Richard B.
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 1984
Subjects: subject: Cell adhesion, immune response.

description: This work can be divided into three sections; the effects (i) of H-2D antigens on peritoneal exudate cell (PEC) adherence, (ii) of la antigens on PEC and lymphocytes and (iii) of reactive oxygen intermediates on lymphocyte activation. H-2D antigen fragments can be attached to glass substates in an antigenically recognizable form and can affect the adhesion of PEC to the substrate. In all cases a significantly larger number (by t-test) of syngeneic than allogeneic cells adhere to fragments of the b, d and k allotypes. No differences between allogeneic and syngeneic adhesion could be found by interference reflection microscopy. When the average spread areas of cells were measured, they were found to be greater for allogeneic than for syngeneic combinations, although this could be due to contact inhibition of spreading in the latter. This work supports the suggestion that the MHC is involved in the modulation of cell adhesion. The incubation of PEC in the supernatant of con A stimulated spleen cells resulted in adsorption of 1a antigens from the medium such that 20% of the cells were 1a positive at a 1/4 dilution of the supernatant. A purer 1a antigen preparation was made from LPS stimulated spleen cell supernatant using a monoclonal anti-1a antibody column, and this was checked by immune blotting and SDS-FAGE. This preparation also adsorbs onto cells and is shown to influence mixed lymphocyte reactions. When BIO or Balb/b (H-2b) cells were used as stimulators with BIO.BR or Balb/k (H-2k) as responders, the inclusion of 1a antigens (ie. syngeneic to responders) significantly reduces the response. With BIO.BR as stimulators and BIO as responders, addition of la causes a significant increase in response although using Balb/k as stimulators and Balb/b as responders no difference is seen between presence and absence of 1a. The possibility of soluble la antigens modulating the immune response is discussed. When peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM) are treated with potassium superoxide solution (3x10.

description: In 2015, Hungary commenced the building of a fence at its border with Serbia. The current article investigates the Hungarian-Serbian border fence in terms of its meaning in the two countries. Building on recent re-bordering research, it analyzes the context within which the fencing took place, stressing both the domestic and the international dimension. Based on qualitative interviews and a document analysis for Hungary and Serbia, it argues that the fence did not create a conflict between the two neighbors – instead, the international entanglement of the border led to a complex bordering process that extended bilateral relations. In Hungary, the border fortification was used for internal political motives and at the same time aimed to exclude non-European migrants. Due to political circumstances and the filter function of the fence, the Serbian government likewise managed to exploit the border fortification to its advantage. The article introduces the concept of “fencing in and fencing out” in order to analyze the control function that the fence performs on both sides of the border.
Diffusion MRI Consistent Wire Models for Efficient Solutions of the Anisotropic Forward Problem in Electroencephalography

description: The surface Boundary Element Method (BEM) is one of the most commonly employed formulations to solve the forward problem in electroencephalography, but the applicability of its classical incarnations is lamentably limited to piece-wise homogeneous media. Several head tissues, however, are strongly anisotropic due to their complex underlying micro-structure. This implies that standard boundary integral formulations oversimplify the electrical properties of the head and produce unrealistic solutions, something that drastically limits the suitability and impact of BEM technologies to brain imaging. This contribution addresses this issue by observing that the brain anisotropy in the white matter is due to the presence of neuronal wire-like structures. We then extend the well known wire integral equations used for high frequency problems to the imperfectly conducting quasi-static case and we propose a new hybrid wire/surface/volume integral equation. When applied on multimodal magnetic resonance images combined with tractography, this new approach can flexibly and realistically handle the conductivity anisotropy in any head compartment providing high level of accuracy and efficiency. The beneficial properties of the new formulation together with its impact on brain imaging is demonstrated via numerical results on both canonical and realistic case scenarios.

description: We present piezoresistance measurements in modulation doped AlAs quantum wells where the two-dimensional electron system occupies two conduction band valleys with elliptical Fermi contours. Our data demonstrate that, at low temperatures, the strain gauge factor (the fractional change in resistance divided by the sample's fractional length change) in this system exceeds 10,000. Moreover, in the presence of a moderate magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the two-dimensional system, gauge factors up to 56,000 can be achieved. The piezoresistance data can be explained qualitatively by a simple model that takes into account intervalley charge transfer.
