Inter-communication between nodes in Body Sensor Networks can be interrupted by body movement. Body parts can reflect and absorb radio frequencies or block the radio signal that can disrupt the radio communication. In this paper, we have proposed an opportunistic radio transmission that uses the Received Signal Strength Indicator as feedback mechanism to improve the […]

Relay nodes (RNs), as important components of heterogeneous networks introduced in Long-Term Evolution-Advanced systems, are employed to improve network capacity and extend cell coverage in a cost-effective manner. In heterogeneous relay networks, there are two types of user access connections: the direct link and the two-hop link. The former is used when a user accesses the […]
Read moreAutonomous Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) have gained popularity due to their many potential application fields. Alongside sophisticated sensors, UAVs can be equipped with communication adaptors aimed for inter-UAV communication. Inter-communication of UAVs to form a UAV swarm raises questions on how to manage its communication structure and mobility. In this paper, we consider therefore the […]
Read moreThe correct inference of gene regulatory network plays a critical role in understanding biological regulation in cells and genome based therapeutics. DNA microarray is the most widely used technology for extracting the relationships between thousands of genes simultaneously. Since S-system is based on the rate law, it is considered as a suitable mathematical model for […]
Read moreTo be successful in the 21st century, students must have a fundamental knowledge of complex networks which allows them to explore the interconnectedness of our world. Network science, a relatively new field of study, represents a fundamental shift away from reductionism to a more complex real world approach to problem solving which looks at interactions between […]
