The last decades have seen an increasing interest in modeling collective animal behavior.Some studies try to reproduce as accurately as possible the collective dynamics and patterns observed in several animal groups with biologically plausible, individual behavioral rules.The objective is then essentially to demonstrate that the observed collective
As energy supply on Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) is limited, energy efficient data transmission in UAV networks would be of great concern to the researchers.Nevertheless, UAV networks exhibit strong dynamic nature compared to ordinary Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET), it is not rare that some nodes will be disjoint from other nodes from time to time.
In Hood Prop the age of the Internet of Things (IoT), more and more sensors, actuators and smart devices get connected to the network.Application providers often combine this connectivity with novel scenarios involving cloud computing.Before implementing changes in these large-scale systems, an in-depth analysis is often required to identify govern
Objective: To investigate the potential role of wild birds as fecal spreaders of enteropathogenic, Speaker Stands enterohemorrhagic and Shiga-toxins producing Escherichia coli (E.coli), enteropathogenic E.coli, enterohemorrhagic E.coli and Shiga toxin-producing E.coli strains.Methods: Fecal samples collected from 121 wild birds of different orders
The experience of homosexuality among Portuguese troops engaged in the colonial wars in Africa (1961-1974) appears primarily in those rare works that do not defend the colonial conflict nor shy away from crises of masculinity.Conversely, works apologetic of Portuguese colonialism are almost exclusively homophobic.In texts that narrate the colonial
