Abstract:

Many standards and even more proprietary technologies deal with IP-based television (IPTV). But none of them can transparently map popular public broadcast services such as DVB or ATSC to IPTV with acceptable effort. In this paper we explain why we believe that such a mapping using a light weight framework is an important step towards all-IP multimedia. We then present the NetCeiver architecture: it is based on well-known standards such as IPv6, and it allows zero configuration. The use of multicast streaming makes NetCeiver highly scalable. We also describe a low cost FPGA implementation of t

Abstract:

This methodological guidance article discusses the elements of a high-quality meta-analysis that is conducted within the context of a systematic review. Meta-analysis, a set of statistical techniques for synthesizing the results of multiple studies, is used when the guiding research question focuses on a quantitative summary of study results. In this guidance article, we discuss the systematic review methods that support high-quality meta-analyses and outline best practice meta-analysis methods for describing the distribution of effect sizes in a set of eligible studies.

Abstract:

The prime factorization of a random integer has a GEM/Poisson-Dirichlet distribution as transparently proved by Donnelly and Grimmett [8]. By similarity to the arc-sine law for the mean distribution of the divisors of a random integer, due to Deshouillers, Dress and Tenenbaum [6] (see also Tenenbaum [24, II.6.2, p. 233]), – the ‘DDT theorem’ – we obtain an arc-sine law in the GEM/Poisson-Dirichlet context. In this context we also investigate the distribution of the number of components larger than ε which correspond to the number of prime factors larger than nε.

Abstract:

Abstract Determining the distribution of the conservation burden and benefit is a critical challenge to the conservation and management of trans-boundary fish stocks. Given current levels of overfishing and overcapacity in many trans-boundary fisheries, some or all participating States must necessarily reach a compromise with regard to their interests and carry some share of the conservation burden. This article proposes a new approach to distributing the conservation burden and benefit in trans-boundary fisheries, and explores this approach in the world’s largest tuna fishery: the tropical tu

Abstract: While there do exist several statistical tests for detecting zero modification in count data regression models, these rely on asymptotical results and do not transparently distinguish between zero inflation and zero deflation. In this manuscript, a novel non-asymptotic test is introduced which makes direct use of the fact that the distribution of the number of zeros under the null hypothesis of no zero modification can be described by a Poisson-binomial distribution. The computation of critical values from this distribution requires estimation of the mean parameter under the null hyp

Abstract Water is becoming an increasingly contested resource.

Classifying international norms and the subsequent indicators for assessment according to their legitimacy will increase the practical relevance of assessment results. The classification will enable addressees to differentiate between mandatory obligations in water management and additional more ambitious targets for decisions on sustainable water distribution.

We used Morlet wavelets to convert strain time series to time-frequency images.

For wavelength between 200 nm and 2000 nm, the scattering cross-section decreases with increasing wavelength, which means that pore scattering is more detrimental to short-wavelength transparency.

Over the past few years, the importance of improving the product distribution structure has increased worldwide.

For this reason, it has been frequently pointed out that the distribution process is not transparent and the distribution margin is high.

Qian, Andersen, and Adelson (1994 Journal of Neuroscience14 7357 – 7366) have reported that transparent motion is not perceived in RDK stimuli if each leftward moving dot is paired with a rightward moving dot that it meets at the midpoint of a short trajec

Transparent optical thin films have recently attracted a growing interest for functional window applications. In this study, highly visible transparent nanocomposite films with ultraviolet (UV)-near-infrared (NIR)-blocking capabilities are reported. Such films, composed of Mo 6 and Nb 6 octahedral metal atom clusters (MC) and polymethylmethacrylate polymer (PMMA), were prepared by electrophoretic deposition on indium tin oxide-coated glass (ITO glass). PMMA was found to improve both the chemical and physical stability of Mo 6 and Nb 6 MCs, resulting in a relatively homogeneous distribution of

Abstract:

The Internet is now a central enabler for sharing sustainability information. Yet, such enablement is complicated through an exponentially increasing array of information. What is lacking in the digital economy are objective and transparent mechanisms to provide reliable assessments of the published sustainability information in a timely and efficient manner. In addressing such limitation, this research proposes an objective automated mechanism for measuring transparency in sustainability reporting using an information entropy-based approach. Through text-mining methods and expert validation,

Abstract:

Analytical approaches for the characterisation of the compound channels in transparent multihop relay transmissions over independent fading channels are considered in this paper. Compound channels with homogeneous links are considered first. Using Mellin transform technique, exact expressions are derived for the moments of cascaded Weibull distributions. Subsequently, two performance metrics, namely,coefficient of variationandamount of fade, are derived using the computed moments. These metrics quantify the possible variations in the channel gain and signal to noise ratio from their respective

However, the insufficiency or lack of transparent information can lead to emergence of the crisis phenomena, shocks in the financial market and growth of system risk.

Fingerprinting is an essential form of identification for both biometric security and forensics today.

Prior to fingerprinting atop, polycarbonate, a commercial polymer with excellent durability and optical transparency, is first swelled and softened with a mild solvent (acetone).

Abstract:

Transparent conductive oxide materials (TCO) are currently under development for use as electrodes in devices such as photovoltaics and flat panel displays. As electrode area increases in large-area applications (e.g. photovoltaics), the resistivity of the TCO must decrease in order to maintain efficiency. The ideal next generation TCO will be a low cost material with a substantially higher conductivity than ITO obtained by improving mobility. Two promising TCO's are CdIn2O2 and Cd2SnO4 which both exhibit high conductivities (4300 S/cm and 8300 S/cm, respectively) and high mobilities (44 and 6

Transparent conductive oxide materials (TCO) are currently under development for use as electrodes in optical systems such as photovoltaics and flat panel displays.

The mechanisms for conduction in these systems are not fully understood, but the distribution of cations within the lattice is thought to be of importance. We are currently studying the Cd1+xIn2-2xSnxO4 system for use as a TCO material. In particular, we are interes

Magnesium-aluminium spinel (MgAl2O4) in the form of transparent ceramics is applied in shields of infrared detectors or emitters, high-temperature widows and elements of military aircrafts and vehicles. Apart from high transparency for specific wave lengths, such materials should have good mechanical properties, especially hardness. It is the reason for production of the fine-grained materials. It seems that they can be produced from submicron powders consolidated by one of colloidal techniques.

Water transparency is an important ecological indicator for shallow lakes. The largest shallow lake, Poyang Lake, as well as the most typical river-connected lake in China was selected as the research area. In view of the complicated water-sediment conditions induced by its frequent water exchange with external rivers, the dominant factors driving water transparency were determined against the field investigated data from 2003 to 2013 and a specific driving function was established. A numerical model coupling suspended sediment, Chl-a and chemical oxygen demand was developed and validated, and
