Post-9/11 Discourses Of Threat And Constructions Of Terror In The Age Of Obama
Creators: name: Bloodsworth-Lugo, Mary K.
name: Lugo-Lugo, Carmen R.
Publisher: name: Università degli  Studi di Milano
Year: 2011

description: We argue elsewhere (Bloodsworth-Lugo and Lugo-Lugo, 2010) that the G.W. Bush years displayed a consistent merger of discourse surrounding otherwise unrelated issues (for example, terrorism, Saddam Hussein, September 11, 2001, immigration, same-sex marriage).  This discourse served to construct and intertwine conceived international and domestic “terrorist” threats.  During Barack Obama’s campaign for the U.S presidency, post-9/11 American anxieties worked to render Obama himself into a threatening body through questions concerning his middle name (Hussein), his perceived religious affiliation, and his patriotism and citizenship.
In the present paper, we argue that the post-9/11 language of “us versus them” (“Either you are with us, or you are with the terrorists” [Bush 2001]), delivered to the American public and international community to garner consent in the wake of the September 11, 2001 events, and transformed into public policy for the remainder of the G.W. Bush presidency, provided a lens through which Americans would continue to construct and perceive the world beyond the Bush administration.  Ideology surrounding “the War on Terror,” in particular, has either been resisted or co-opted and deployed by social agents in the aftermath of September 11, 2001.  We claim that in the age of Obama, Bush-generated discourse and ideology has been activated to continue and advance policies and practices aimed at identifying and containing “terrorist” threats.

description: As the population ages and income disparities increase, issues affecting older adults and marginalized individuals are examined more frequently. Despite this, little attention is paid to the community experiences of women over the age of fifty who face marginalization, criminalization and homelessness. This study is an institutional ethnography of older marginalized women in Ottawa, focusing on their identities, lives and their experiences of community life. Its findings are based on ethnographic fieldwork as well as interviews with 27 older marginalized women and 16 professionals working with this group. The women described their identities, social networks, daily activities and navigations of their communities as well as the policy and discursive framework in which their lives are situated. Regardless of whether the women had housing or were staying in shelters, upheaval, uncertainty and change characterized their experiences in the community, reflecting their current circumstances, but also their life courses. Their accounts also revealed how, through social support, community services, and personal resilience, older marginalized women negotiate daily life and find places and spaces for themselves in their communities. As an institutional ethnography, this research foregrounds participants’ responses, framing these with theoretical lenses examining mobilities, identity, social capital, governmentality, and stigma. Specifically, it uses the lenses of mobilities and identities to understand the nature of their community experiences, before moving outward to examine their social networks and the world around them. Governmentality theory is also used to describe the neoliberal context framing their community experiences. The study concludes with a reflection on the research and a set of policy recommendations arising from the study.
Blogging 9/11 and Memory Discourse
Creators: name: Paganoni, Maria Cristina
Publisher: name: Università degli  Studi di Milano
Year: 2011

description: Marking ‘Time Zero’ in the history of the US and the world, the 9/11 catastrophe provoked an outburst of discourses that found an unprecedented sounding board in the blogosphere, flooded with fragmentary contributions from a global public that mostly witnessed the event mediated by TV coverage. Examining a decade bracketed by those traumatic attacks and Osama bin Laden’s death, we may ask ourselves in what relationship the continuous flow of comments, disclosures and news updates published on 9/11-related blogs stands to the making of the history of the event and what followed it, especially the emergence of the ‘war-on-terror’ rhetoric.
This article highlights a few of the salient discursive and linguistic patterns that recur in the 9/11 narratives that have multiplied online on several dedicated websites and investigates the evolution of 9/11 cultural memory practices, torn between the discourse of the unrepresentable and the imperative to remember. It claims that blogging 9/11, immediately after the attacks and over the years, well illustrates how the logic of memory and its interpretation of the past follow different criteria from history writing. It shows how memorialization practices, dictated by the fear of forgetting the vanishing present, contribute to that excess of memory that lies at the core of the instability and mutual competition of sources retrieved on the Internet and that might ultimately lead to a rethinking of what is the contribution of collective memory to historiography.

description: The magnitude and scope of intrinsic age-correlated and host endocrine age-correlated gene expression in breast cancer is not well understood. From age-correlated gene expression in 3071 breast cancer transcriptomes and epithelial protein expression of 42 markers in 5001 breast cancers and 537 normal breast tissues, we identified a majority of age-correlated genes as putatively regulated by age-dependent estrogen signaling. Surprisingly these include the chromatin modifier EZH2 with negative age correlation and associated H3K27me3, with an inverse positive age correlation. Among TCGA-lung, thyroid, kidney and prostate transcriptomes, the largest overlap with breast cancer in age-correlated transcripts was in lung cancer, where about 1/3 of overlapping age-correlated transcripts appeared estrogen regulated. Age-quartile stratified outcomes analysis of 3,500 breast cancers using EZH2, H3K27me3, FOXA1 and BCL2 proteins revealed distinct age-related prognostic significance. Age correlation in gene expression may thus be an important factor in ER, EZH2, H3K27me3 and other biomarker assessment and treatment strategies.
An “approximate knowledge”: event transmission in the post-9/11 informational culture
Creators: name: Picarelli, Enrica
Publisher: name: Università degli  Studi di Milano
Year: 2011

description: The aim of the essay is to look back at 9/11 from the temporal perspective of 2011 and interpret it as a singularity, that is a moment of destabilization that hit the media sphere, accelerating an already existing shift in communication politics towards affective involvement. The dimension of pathic engagement that the televised images of 9/11 inspired, their becoming a source of collective emotional instability (i.e. a global “culture of fear”), has amplified preexisting modes of communication that relied on the energetic and mobilizing lure of audiovisual transmission. Rather than approaching 9/11 as a metaphysical occurrence, an absolute ‘event’ unencumbered by the territorializing pull of its own geopolitical genealogy, the essay engages with it as a phase boundary whose transformative impact can be sensed in the tactics of mobilization that inform contemporary communication practices.

description: The Australian Curriculum includes Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures as a Cross Curriculum Priority across all key learning areas. The Australian education system is largely based upon Anglo-Saxon values, beliefs and worldviews. This Critical Discourse Analysis examines the positioning of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander content in relation to Geography Curriculum content. The purpose of this research was to understand how Indigenous content has been re-contextualised, to determine how Australian school teachers interpret Indigenous content in disciplinary areas. The positioning of Indigenous content was examined through the application of Critical Discourse Analysis tools. A cultural analysis tool was also used to measure the breadth of content and the depth of perspective of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander curriculum content. From all levels of analysis, it was found that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures are positioned in states of uncertainty and irrelevance due to their re-contextualisation as a Cross Curriculum Priority. These findings raise serious questions regarding the inclusion of Cross Curriculum Priorities in the Australian Curriculum. It is evident from the findings of this research that the current positioning and re-contextualisation of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander histories and cultures in the Geography Curriculum does not meet the intended purpose of its development or recommendations made by The Ministerial Council on Education, Employment, Training and Youth Affairs.

Dale Maharidge and Michael Williamson’s ‘Homeland’: de-constructing the rhetoric of consensus in the aftermath of September 11th attacks
Creators: name: Schiavini, Cinzia
Publisher: name: Università degli  Studi di Milano
Year: 2011

description: Focusing on Dale Maharidge and Michael Williamson’s reportage Homeland (2004), this essay explores the de-construction of the discursive and cultural strategies of the “state of exception” used to depict 9/11 events and the dialectics between domestic and international politics and economies. The analysis focuses in particular on four elements: the concept of “Ground Zero” and “Homeland” and their use as lexical and symbolic catalysts of nationalism; the forms and the erasure of dissent; the commodification of 9/11 and the Iraqi war; and the relation between the national rhetoric and the transnational economy in the last two decades.

Queensland is Thirsty for Porous Concrete: Testing the Durability Characteristics of an Industry Porous Concrete Mix Design Using Cyclic Loading
Creators: name: Hoy, Kieran
Publisher: name: University of the Sunshine Coast, Queensland
Year: 2013

description: Porous concrete offers an environmentally friendly alternative to light traffic pavement applications. Porous concrete is generally used as an initial drainage system to absorb most, if not all, of a catchment runoff. This relieves the pressure on storm water drains and can reduce the need for kerbing and expansive storm water systems which can help to reduce stormwater infrastructure costs. Porous concrete also helps filter stormwater runoff by capturing all pollutants and filtering them through the sub-base and soil instead of pollutants flowing to downstream water bodies. By filtering the runoff this recharges underground water tables and recharges local vegetation water supplies by allowing the water to be soaked up in the immediate catchment area. Porous concrete is used for light traffic applications such as foot paths, traffic islands, driveways and car parks. Porous concrete drains standing water increasing safety whilst driving by reducing aqua planning and light glare.

Publisher: name: Swinburne

description: It has recently been proposed that Internet energy costs, both monetary and environmental, can be reduced by exploiting temporal variations and shifting processing to data centers located in regions where energy currently has low cost. Lightly loaded data centers can then turn off surplus servers. This paper studies online algorithms for determining the number of servers to leave on in each data center, and then uses these algorithms to study the environmental potential of geographical load balancing (GLB). A commonly suggested algorithm for this setting is 'receding horizon control' (RHC), which computes the provisioning for the current time by optimizing over a window of predicted future loads. We show that RHC performs well in a homogeneous setting, in which all servers can serve all jobs equally well; however, we also prove that differences in propagation delays, servers, and electricity prices can cause RHC perform badly, So, we introduce variants of RHC that are guaranteed to perform as well in the face of such heterogeneity. These algorithms are then used to study the feasibility of powering a continent-wide set of data centers mostly by renewable sources, and to understand what portfolio of renewable energy is most effective.

Breastfeeding programs specific to adolescent mothers in middle to high income countries: a scoping review protocol
Creators: name: Lamont, Amanda
name: Maher, Judith

Publisher: name: University of the Sunshine Coast
Year: 2024
Subjects: adolescent breastfeeding programs
socio-ecological determinants

description: Background: Breastfeeding positively affects the health and well-being of the mother and has significant long-term health and wellbeing implications for the child (World Health Organisation, 2023), however, due to unique challenges associated with adolescent mothers, they are the least likely population to breastfeed (Pinho-Pompeu et al., 2023).
description: Aim: The aim of this scoping review is to investigate which program characteristics influence adolescent breastfeeding initiation and map what determinants are addressed by these factors in context of the socio-ecological model.
description: Methods: This scoping review will be conducted in accordance with the JBI methodology for scoping reviews 2020 edition (Aromataris & Munn 2020). The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) checklist (Page et al., 2021) will be followed. Inclusion criteria includes programs with the intention to support breastfeeding initiation and/or duration for pregnant adolescents (school age 12-19 years) living in high or upper middle-income countries as defined by the New World Bank country: Search strategy includes original research papers, peer reviewed journal articles and grey literature including thesis, dissertations and government and NGO reports.
description: Conclusion: The primary purpose of this scoping review is to identify and map the characteristics of programs which aim to support adolescent breastfeeding initiation and duration and to identify which socio-ecological determinants are addressed in the program. It is anticipated that this scoping review will inform program development and identify research gaps.
Ideas of Community in the Thought of Pierre Leroux and of Feodor Dostoevsky: Agape, Philia and Eros

description: In this thesis I compare Pierre Leroux, a French utopian socialist (1797 – 1871), with Feodor Dostoevsky, the well-known Orthodox Russian novelist (1821 – 1881). I argue that both authors reacted against what they considered to be the dissolution of the social order, brought about by the increasing nineteenth-century bourgeois individualism. On the other hand, they reacted as well against the opposite phenomenon, the idea of a universal socialist state, which was, in fact, according to them, the outcome of bourgeois individualism. My purpose is to bring close and to compare Leroux’s republican socialism with Dostoevsky’s Christian socialism, and to explore to what extent the two authors give similar answers to a common problem. In order to better explain their thought, I divide my thesis into three chapters. The first analyzes and compares Leroux’s and Dostoevsky’s critiques of individualism. If Leroux reaches the conclusion that the ultimate expression of individualism is Malthusianism, Dostoevsky argues that individualism ends in nihilism. The second chapter analyzes the type of socialism against which Leroux and Dostoevsky reacted, as well as the critiques of the two authors. I argue here that Saint-Simonian socialism – the main object of Leroux’s critique – and the socialism of the Grand Inquisitor – a Dostoevskyan character – are the expression of a certain utopian thought which considers the requirement for freedom incompatible with the requirement for unity. In the last chapter, I analyze the ideas of community of Leroux and of Dostoevsky, which are centered on philia, in the case of the former, and on agape, in the case of the latter. Philia and respectively agape are the expression of organic social relations, through which the two requirements, of freedom and unity, are made compatible, and which create unity in multiplicity. Their ideas of community appear as active utopias, grounded on the life of relation in a spontaneous, organic community.

description: Le but de cette thèse est de comprendre le rôle que l’idée de la classe moyenne joue dans l’idéologie du développement, plus particulièrement dans le contexte de l’Amérique latine. En examinant la théorie du développement, les analyses de classes marxistes et wébériennes, la théorie de la modernisation et l’approche de la dépendance, cette thèse considère si le concept de la classe moyenne masque les iniquités économiques et divise la classe non capitaliste, permettant de maintenir une société capitaliste qui profite démesurément à une petite élite. Plutôt que de délimiter la classe moyenne de façon qualitative ou quantitative, cette thèse la définit comme concept idéologique utilisant l’approche marxiste de matérialisme historique. Cette thèse trouve que l’idée de la classe moyenne est un concept fondamental dans la justification idéologique du capitalisme; le conflit entre les travailleurs et les capitalistes est masqué par le « conflit » entre la classe ouvrière et la classe moyenne qui recentre l’attention sur des relations de consommation plutôt que sur les rapports aux moyens de production. La thèse illustre ces concepts avec une étude de cas du développement de la classe moyenne et de la séparation légale des empleados (employés de bureau/cols blancs) et des obreros (les ouvriers/cols bleus) au Pérou au début du 20e siècle.

description: Androgen/androgen receptor (AR) signaling drives both the normal prostate development and prostatic carcinogenesis, and patients with advanced prostate cancer often develop resistance to androgen deprivation therapy. The transcription factor Krüppel-like factor 5 (KLF5) also regulates both normal and cancerous development of the prostate. In this study, we tested whether and how KLF5 plays a role in the function of AR signaling in prostate cancer cells. We found that KLF5 is upregulated by androgen depending on AR in LNCaP and C4-2B cells. Silencing KLF5, in turn, reduced AR transcriptional activity and inhibited androgen-induced cell proliferation and tumor growth in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, KLF5 occupied the promoter of AR, and silencing KLF5 repressed AR transcription. In addition, KLF5 and AR physically interacted with each other to regulate the expression of multiple genes (e.g., MYC, CCND1 and PSA) to promote cell proliferation. These findings indicate that, while transcriptionally upregulated by AR signaling, KLF5 also regulates the expression and transcriptional activity of AR in androgen-sensitive prostate cancer cells. The KLF5-AR interaction could provide a therapeutic opportunity for the treatment of prostate cancer.

description: Frequent rearrangements, typically through homologous recombination in plant mitochondrial genomes often result in different upstream and downstream sequences for the same gene among a number of species. Transcription and RNA processing signals are therefore different, even among closely related plants. To evaluate the impact of DNA rearrangements on gene expression I conducted a comparative analysis of the S7 ribosomal protein gene (rps7) among a number of grasses: wheat, rice, maize, barley, rye, brome, Lolium and oats (grasses whose evolutionary divergence times range from about 5 to 60 Mya). Using circularized-RT-PCR to simultaneously map rps7 transcript termini I found that 3’ends for various RNA species are homogeneous, mapping to conserved sequences among plants. 5’ termini are more complex and can be both discrete and heterogeneous for different transcripts, both within and among plants. Genome rearrangements upstream of the rps7 start codon for some but not all species has led to plant-specific signals for both rps7 transcription and RNA processing. Termini for rps7 precursor species in wheat and Lolium are very discrete and likely use different upstream tRNAs as processing signals for end-cleavage. A number of potential stem-loop structures have also been identified at or near 5’ and 3’ termini which may function in maturation of transcript ends or provide transcript stability and protection from degradation by ribonucleases. C-to-U RNA editing of non-coding sequences, a rare event, was observed at multiple sites within the 5’ and 3’UTRs among plants. Some sites may even be developmentally regulated as CR-RT-PCR experiments were conducted using mitochondrial RNA isolated from seedlings and germinating embryos. Taken together, my observations demonstrate the frequency of upstream DNA rearrangements and the variety of signals used for expression of rps7 among grasses, providing new insights into the complexities of mRNA production in plant mitochondria.
L’AUTOBIOGRAFIA LINGUISTICA NELL’INSEGNAMENTO-APPRENDIMENTO  DELL’ITALIANO L2/LS

description: L'autobiografia linguistica è una attività particolarmente utile nell'insegnamento-apprendimento di una lingua straniera. L'apprendente immigrato è invitato a narrare in prima persona le esperienze linguistico-comunicative nella propria L1, nella L2 /LS che sta apprendendo e/o nella lingua seconda che ha acquisito come lingua di comunicazione e di studio nel suo paese di origine, le relazioni umane ed emotive che accompagnano  o hanno accompagnato queste esperienze, le situazioni che ne hanno favorito o ostacolato l'apprendimento. Con l'autobiografia linguistica l'apprendente straniero costruisce, attraverso la scrittura e quindi attraverso un processo di esplicitazione e di riflessione consapevole,  un ponte tra "là" e "qui", tra paese d'origine e il paese di arrivo, tra la vita "prima" e la vita "dopo" lo strappo della migrazione. Ricompone e dà senso alla propria storia, nelle due lingue, esprime affetti ed emozioni, rinomina il mondo e se ne riappropria ricostruendo insieme la propria identità, esplora se stesso e si fa conoscere ai suoi pari e all'insegnante in un rapporto di condivisione e di comprensione reciproca: si crea un contesto non di integrazione, ma di inclusione. A sua volta il docente può meglio comprendere le strategie di apprendimento dell'apprendente, la sua personalità, le sue difficoltà e progettare strategie didattiche più efficaci, perché più individuali e orientate al successo nella comunicazione e nell'apprendimento.   Linguistic autobiography is especially useful in the teaching and learning of a foreign language. The foreign learner is asked to narrate, in the first person, his/her linguistic-communicative experiences in their L1 and in the L2/FL which they are learning and/or in the second language they have acquired for communication or study in their home country, focusing on the emotional and human relationships which accompanied this experience and the situations which encouraged or blocked the learning. Through writing, speaking and thoughtful reflection, linguistic autobiography helps the foreign learner to construct a bridge between "there" and "here", between the home and the host country, between life "before" and "after" the shock of migration. This practice reorganizes and gives meaning to one's own history in both languages, through the expression of feelings and emotions, by defining and reclaiming the world as well as reconstructing identity, exploring oneself and showning oneself to peers and teachers in an environment of mutual sharing and understanding.  It creates a context for inclusion, not just integration. The teacher, in turn, can better understand the student's learning strategies, his/her personality and difficulties and thus plan more effective didactic interventions, since they are individualized and aimed at success in communication and learning.

The Communication of Conservation: The competing priorities of ecotourism and government, and what it means for the whale-watching tourist in Hervey Bay, Australia
Creators: name: Peake, Sheila
Publisher: name: University of the Sunshine Coast, Queensland
Year: 2008
Subjects: conservation
ecotourism

communication

description: The thesis examines the communication of conservation values in ecotourism. Both ecotourism operators and government view conservation as intrinsic to ecotourism and the sustainability of the resource. The successful communication of conservation messages to ecotourists relies on the effectiveness of all stakeholders involved in this industry working together to achieve a positive outcome. However, the competing legitimacy between these stakeholders in relation to the communication of conservation messages, to thousands of whale-watching visitors, is likely to impact the outcome and achieve less than its full potential. This would result in reduced efficacy, that combined with the learning capacity of the visitor could facilitate a low uptake of conservation messages in this industry. The thesis investigated different aspects of communication efficacy in this industry: the communication between and from stakeholders; and whether or not visitors received a conservation message. This was achieved by examining the underlying legislation, industry stakeholders and the whale-watching visitor.

description: Limited research has assessed the possibility for drive for thinness, leanness, and muscularity to occur concurrently. The current study explored this possibility among women aged between 17-65 years. Body drive groups were determined through hierarchical cluster analysis on the three drive measures and further assessed differences on: age, body mass index, exercising behaviours and reported body change strategies for external validity. Three hundred and thirty five females participated in the study and were recruited from local leisure centres, sporting facilities, the general community, and the University of the Sunshine Coast. The cluster analysis produced three body drive groups: Low group (n = 103), Normative group (n = 174), and Pathological group (n = 58). Comparisons between the three groups demonstrated that the Pathological group was significantly younger and engaged in more exercising behaviours than the Low and Normative groups. However, there was no significant difference between groups in low impact exercising behaviours. Additionally, the Low group was the oldest with the highest BMI. Common thinness pursuit strategies across groups were adhering to a healthy eating plan, where leanness and muscularity strategies across groups were exercise. Key findings suggested the drive measures could occur simultaneously amongst women and younger women were more Pathological in their dissatisfactions. These findings were explained in relation to Cash's cognitive behavioural model of body image, specifically how age as a historical influence impacts on body image investments and outcomes.

description: Background: Laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer is a novel healthcare technology, for which much research evidence has been published. The objectives of this work were to compare the oncologic outcomes of this technology across different study types, and to define patterns of adoption on the basis of the literature. Methods: A comprehensive systematic review of the literature was conducted using 1) existing systematic reviews, 2) randomized controlled trials (RCTs), and 3) observational studies. Outcomes of interest were overall survival, and total lymph node harvest. Outcomes were compared for congruence. Adoption was evaluated by means of summary expert opinions in the literature. Results: 1) Existing systematic reviews were of low to moderate quality and displayed evidence of overlap and duplication. 2) Laparoscopy was not inferior to open surgery in terms of oncologic outcomes in any study type. 3) Oncologic outcomes from RCTs and observational studies were congruent. 4) Expert opinion in the literature has been supportive of this technology, paralleling the publication of large RCTs. Conclusions: The evaluation of laparoscopic surgery for colorectal cancer in RCTs and observational studies suggests that it is not inferior to open surgery. Adoption of this technology has paralleled RCT evidence.
VALUTAZIONE DELLA PRODUZIONE SCRITTA:  PARAMETRI, GRIGLIE E SOGGETTIVITÀ

description: La valutazione della produzione scritta non costituisce certo un compito agevole per il docente. Quali parametri vanno necessariamente valutati e su quanti livelli/punti dovrebbero spalmarsi? Come conferire rigore e scientificità alla correzione sottraendola alla soggettività? Gli enti certificatori delle competenze linguistiche si avvalgono di parametri rigorosi, ma sembrerebbe che nella prassi quotidiana i docenti siano piuttosto restii  all'impiego di griglie. Il presente contributo, alieno da ogni pretesa di esaustività, si prefigge come obiettivo quello di affrontare un problema spinoso suggerendo percorsi valutativi possibili nella consapevolezza che, alla stregua di quanto avviene per il manuale, la scelta dell'eventuale griglia di valutazione  è e deve rimanere una questione meramente personale.   It is certainly not an easy task for teachers to evaluate writing. Which parameters should be evaluated, on how many levels and how many points should they be worth? How can correction be rigorous and scientific and not subjective? Linguistic competency certifiers refer to strict parameters, but it seems that in daily practice teachers do not like to use grids very much. This paper, far from being exhaustive, aims at addressing this difficult problem by suggesting possible ways for carrying out evaluation, keeping in mind that in the same was as for a manual, the choice of using an evaluation grid is and should remain a merely personal question.

description: In order to implement wireless sensing and monitoring services at large scale, Internet connection is highly desirable. Particularly, TCP is indispensable for end-to-end connection orientated communication. It is well known that low power and low rate IEEE802.15.4 based Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are vulnerable to the interference from collocated Wireless Local Area Networks (WLAN) utilizing the same un-licensed 2.4GHz frequency band. Such coexistence interference seriously deteriorates the performance of TCP/IPv6 over WSN, resulting in packet losses, disconnections, reduced throughput and so on. This thesis focuses on experimental research on the performance evaluation and improvement of TCP/IPv6 over IEEE 802.15.4 based WSN. In this research, a versatile testbed has been developed and implemented, which consists of off-the-selves and custom built hardware, open source and in-house developed firmware and software. A periodical monitoring/sensing application that uses TCP to transmit data over WSN has been developed and used for performance evaluation when there is various Wi-Fi interference close by. Based on the observations and analysis of our experimental results, several important parameters that impact the TCP packet transmission performance have been identified. Performance improvement technique is proposed to effectively adjust these parameters so as to support periodic monitoring/sensing application with substantial better performance. Extensive experiments have been performed in the testbed to evaluate the performance of WSN packets transmission via TCP over WSN when subjected to different Wi-Fi interference.
