Low-Earth-Orbit (LEO) satellite networks have the advantage of global internet coverage and low latency, and they have enjoyed great success in the past few years.In LEO satellite networks, laser-based inter-satellite links (ISLs) BIO REGROW are widely employed to achieve on-board data relay, and further to provide high-capacity backhaul worldwide.
Make blended learning happen: conditions for a successful change process in higher education institutions
The evolution of technology has influenced and, in some cases pushed, many change projects in any type of industry.Educational institutions have also been influenced by this technological evolution.This has generated some important shifts in the educational paradigm that have consequently lead to some changes in the learning processes.Although e-le
Shrinking the lymphatic filariasis map of Zimbabwe: Reassessing the population requiring treatment through confirmatory mapping
Objectives: Zimbabwe is endemic for lymphatic filariasis (LF) with 39 districts identified for mass drug administration (MDA) in 2014.The objective of this study was to reassess the current population requiring MDA.Methods: The LF confirmatory mapping method was used to evaluate the prevalence of circulating filarial antigens among school-aged chil
Determination of Fuel Type for Optimal Performance and Emission in a CI Engine Used Biodiesel and its Blends via Multi-Criteria Decision Making
In this study, fuel type which provides optimum engine performance and exhaust emission for a compression ignition (CI) engine used alternative fuel was determined by COPRAS in multi criteria decision making (MCDM), and it was ranked from good to bad.Furthermore, the engine performance and exhaust emission results obtained from the use Melatonin of
Heterophyllin: A New Adenia Toxic Lectin with Peculiar Biological Properties
Ribosome-inactivating proteins (RIPs) are plant toxins that were identified for their ability to irreversibly damage ribosomes, thereby Cameras causing arrest of protein synthesis and induction of cell death.The RIPs purified from Adenia plants are the most potent ones.Here, we describe a novel toxic lectin from Adenia heterophylla caudex, which ha
