A smart city application has been realized and tested.It is a fully remote controlled isle of lamp posts based on new technologies.It has been designed and organized in different hierarchical layers, which perform local activities to physically control the lamp posts and transmit information with another for remote control.Locally, each lamp post u
Objective: The purpose of this study was to assess understanding of the hysterectomy procedure and uterine fibroids among women in a general gynecology clinic.Materials and Methods: This was an anonymous cross-sectional survey.We adapted and pilot tested a survey instrument designed to assess understanding of the hysterectomy procedure and of uteri
Summary: Ubiquitous in eukaryotes, circular RNAs (circRNAs) comprise a large class of mostly non-coding RNAs produced by back-splicing.Although some circRNAs have demonstrated biochemical activities, whether most circRNAs are functional is unknown.Here, we test the hypothesis that circRNA production primarily results from splicing error and so is d
Corrosion in the marine environment is a complex mechanism.One of the most damaging forms of corrosion is pitting corrosion, which is difficult to design and inspect against.In the North Sea, multiple offshore wind structures have been deployed that are corroding from the inside out.One of WATCHES the most notable corrosion mechanisms observed is p
Over-provisioning technology is typically introduced as a means to improve the performance of storage systems, such as databases.The over-provisioning area is both hidden and difficult for normal users to access.This Wooden Dollhouse Accessories paper focuses on attack models for such hidden areas.Malicious hackers use advanced over-provisioning te
