Mixed Integer Programming Model of MCCA-aware Acknowledging in Wireless Mesh Networks

The paper investigates advantages of using an MCCA-aware acknowledging system in IEEE 802.11s Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN). The MCCA (MCF controlled channel access) protocol allows for reserving time slots for a point-topoint transmission over a wireless link. The protocol assures that the transmission will not be hindered by any other 802.11 device that uses MCCA, by preventing all neighbors of b

Deaths and tumours in workers grinding stainless steel - a follow-up study

OBJECTIVE: To study cause specific mortality and cancer morbidity in workers exposed to the dust of grinding materials, grinding agents, and stainless steel, especially with regard to a possibly increased risk of respiratory, stomach, and colorectal cancer. METHODS: Retrospective cohort study, using reference cohorts of blue collar workers and population rates for comparison. The exposed cohort c

Vertical temperature increase in multi-storey buildings

Indoor temperature is by measurements stated to rise 0.1 – 0.2°C per storey upwards in multi-storey buildings, despite occupants’ possibility to control the temperature. Due to upward air temperature gradient in rooms there will be a heat transfer through slabs upwards. The size of this depends on insulation degree of building envelope and slabs and air flow through the building. With a linear mat

Optimising Archaeologic Ceramics XRF Analyses

We present the first results of an experiment which is aimed at ultimately producing recommendations for analysing archaeologic ceramics specimens using hand held XRF analysis devices. In the experiment we study the effects of different measurement durations, different number of measured points, and three different types of surface treatments (breakage, polished, grounded) when analysing ceramics

Travel magazines, globalization and the consumer gaze

Travel writing, from high culture to popular texts, has often been interpreted as giving expression to colonial discourses and desires. The tourist is imagined to have a colonial gaze in relation to the exotic destination. However, in my paper I would like to argue that travel writing, and tourism, could also be read in other ways, and to situate popular travel writing in a context of globalizatio
