Influencing teaching and learning microcultures. Academic development in a research-intensive university.
… framework originates from sociocultural and network theory, as well as from organizational and leadership research. The research is presented here in five articles and shows that academic teachers rely on trusting and inspirational conversations about teaching with a few others that …

Resource Efficient and Scalable Routing using Intelligent Mobile Agents
… available to them. Such routing algorithms cause significant network resource overhead due to the large number of messages generated at each host/router throughout the route update process. Many of these messages are wasteful since they do not contribute to the route discovery process. Reducing …

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Snow-Free Frost Exposure in the Western Cordillera Seasonal Snow Zones
… is inconsistent. Results show a statistically significant network-wide decrease in SFFD frequency over the study period. This decline is mainly driven by increasing temperatures that have thus far outweighed the impact of a less persistent snowpack at most sites. The analysis suggests that …

Application of overlay techniques to network monitoring
… for correct and efficient operation of a network, since these activities provide reliable information and accurate analysis for characterizing and troubleshooting a network’s performance. The focus of network measurement is to measure the volume and types of traffic on a particular network …

HORMONE EPIMERS REGULATE ER STRESS AND CORE REGULATORY GENES: NETWORK ANALYSIS WITH APPLICATIONS TO GLIOMA AND CHRONIC PRESSURE ULCERS
<p>DHEA has been determined to have medically significant activity and is the parent compound to the more active metabolites; 17α-AED, 17β-AED and 17β-AET, which exhibit strong biological activity that has been attributed to androgenic, estrogenic or anti-glucocorticoid activity in vivo and in …

An efficient up-link load reduction model based on clustering in vanets
Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) enable communication between vehicles to avoid the accident. Cluster is a technique in VANETs used to group vehicles. The aim of this thesis is to mitigate uplink load at Base-Stations (BSs) resulted from the following: first, increased number of vehicles in the …

Step-growth thiol-ene photopolymerization to form degradable, cytocompatible and multi-structural hydrogels
… was well-described in the literature, the network properties and degradation behaviors of these hydrogels have not been fully characterized. In addition, existing thiol-ene photopolymerizations often used type I photoinitiators in conjunction with an ultraviolet (UV) light source to …

Towards Sustainable Next-Generation UxV Networks: Joint Optimisation of Communication, Control, and Energy Management
… while providing robust and stable network functions for heterogeneous UxVs is extremely challenging for the following reasons. First, the inherent dynamic nature and high mobility of UxVs induce frequent changes in network topology and connectivity. These fluctuations impose …

Modeling the traffic flow evolution process after a network disruption.
Major disruption to a transportation network can disturb traffic flow patterns significantly. To deploy effective and efficient traffic restoration projects, a good prediction of the traffic flow pattern under network disruption is vital. Although traffic flow evolution processes have been modeled …

Advanced Suspended Sediment Sampling and Simulation of Sediment Pulses to Better Predict Fluvial Geomorphic Change in River Networks
… Another part of this work employs a 1-D river network, bed material transport model to investigate the magnitude, timing, and persistence of downstream changes due to the introduction of sediment pulses in a linear river network. We specifically focus on comparing bed responses between mixed …

Scalable data analytics techniques for summarizing spatial network-based observations
Summarizing spatial network-based observations (SSNO) entails finding a compact description or representation of large spatial or spatio-temporal datasets. For example, transportation planners and engineers may need to identify road segments that pose risks for pedestrians and require redesign. …

Geographic location and geographic prediction performance benefits for infrastructureless wireless networks
The field of infrastructureless wireless networks (IWNs) is a broad and varied research area with a history of different assumption sets and methods of analysis. Much of the focus in the area of IWNs has been on connectivity and throughput/energy/delay (T/E/D) tradeoffs, which are important and …

Machine learning enabled bioinformatics tools for analysis of biologically diverse samples
… genes and the analysis of differentially networked genes are two fundamental and critically important tasks. However, many current methodologies employ test statistics that don't align perfectly with the signature definition, potentially leading to the identification of imprecise …
