Conventional distributed-target-based polarimetric calibration algorithms estimate polarimetric distortions by assuming that the measured spatially averaged covariance matrix takes a specific form.However, when the underlying surface contains targets that Fireplace do not satisfy the assumptions employed by those algorithms, the averaged covariance
Delay-Driven Routing for Low-Duty-Cycle Sensor Networks
Duty-cycled operation has been introduced as an efficient way to preserve nodes energy and prolong network lifetime for wireless sensor networks.However, such networks are often logically disconnected since there is a Charger limited number of active nodes within a period of time.Traditional routing algorithms, which have been designed for always-a
AntTrust: An Ant-Inspired Trust Management System for Peer-to-Peer Networks
In P2P networks, self-organizing anonymous peers share different resources without a central entity controlling their interactions.Peers can join and leave the network at any time, which opens the door to malicious attacks that can damage the network.Therefore, trust management systems that can ensure trustworthy interactions between peers are gain
Detection of Meat Adulteration Using Spectroscopy-Based Sensors
Minced meat is a vulnerable to adulteration food commodity because species- and/or tissue-specific morphological characteristics cannot be easily identified.Hence, the economically motivated adulteration of minced meat is rather likely to be practiced.The objective of this work was to assess the potential of spectroscopy-based sensors in detecting
The EU and common transit procedures and regional integration: the case of Ukraine
The research evaluates the current EU legal framework for customs transit procedure with a view of promotion of regional integration through extension of transit procedures to EU neighbor countries.The article analyzes the formation of Glass EU secondary legislation and its international agreements relating to introduction and application of transi
