HIGHLIGHTS William Thacker and Joyce Martin have established a new endowment fund, called the Thacker Computer Sciences Scholarship for computer science majors. Thacker taught computer science for more than 35 years.
The internet of things (IoT) has recently received much attention due to its revolutionary potential. The internet of things facilitates data interchange in a large number of possible applications, including smart...
IoT devices are placed at open places, generally at where monitoring and controlling of devices from remote location is difficult. Location spoofing is a threat in which an intruder intentionally modifies the contextual...
In this piece of work, the authors have attempted to classify four types of long duration arrhythmia electrocardiograms (ECG) using radial basis function network (RBFN). The data is taken from Massachusetts Institute of...
Distributed estimation of parameters in wireless sensor networks is taken into consideration to reduce the communication overhead of the network which makes the sensor system energy efficient. Most of the distributed approaches...
Perception is seen as a process that utilises partial and noisy information to construct a coherent understanding of the world. Here we argue that the experience of pain is no different; it is based on incomplete, multimodal...

The self-assembly of the amyloid β 42 (Aβ42) peptide is linked to Alzheimer's disease, and oligomeric intermediates are linked to neuronal cell death during the pathology of the disease. These oligomers are produced prolifically...
We report observations of a striking reversal in the direction of electroosmotic flow (EOF) outside a conical glass nanopore as a function of salt concentration. At high ionic strengths (>100 mM), we observe EOF in the expected...
Plasmonic sensors are extremely promising candidates for label-free single-molecule analysis but require exquisite control over the physical arrangement of metallic nanostructures. Here we employ self-assembly based on the DNA...
BACKGROUND: Handgrip strength, a measure of muscular fitness, is associated with cardiovascular (CV) events and CV mortality but its association with cardiac structure and function is unknown. The goal of this study was to...
Background: Although thousands of clinical isolates of Plasmodium falciparum are being sequenced and analysed by short read technology, the data do not resolve the highly variable subtelomeric regions of the genomes that contain...
Although plasma proteins have important roles in biological processes and are the direct targets of many drugs, the genetic factors that control inter-individual variation in plasma protein levels are not well understood. Here...
A search for the narrow structure, X(5568), reported by the D0 Collaboration in the decay sequence X→B_{s}^{0}π^{±}, B_{s}^{0}→J/ψϕ, is presented. The analysis is based on a data sample recorded with the ATLAS detector at the...
Abstract: A search for direct pair production of scalar partners of the top quark (top squarks or scalar third-generation up-type leptoquarks) in the all-hadronic tt¯ plus missing transverse momentum final state is presented....
Abstract: The inclusive top quark pair (tt¯) production cross-section σtt¯ has been measured in proton–proton collisions at s=13TeV, using 36.1 fb-1 of data collected in 2015–2016 by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. Using events...
Abstract: The problems of neutrino masses, matter-antimatter asymmetry, and dark matter could be successfully addressed by postulating right-handed neutrinos with Majorana masses below the electroweak scale. In this work...
Abstract: A search for new physics with non-resonant signals in dielectron and dimuon final states in the mass range above 2 TeV is presented. This is the first search for non-resonant signals in dilepton final states at the LHC...
Abstract: The production cross-sections for W± and Z bosons are measured using ATLAS data corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 4.0 pb-1 collected at a centre-of-mass energy s=2.76 TeV. The decay channels W→ℓν and Z→ℓℓ...
