In large-scale disasters, such as earthquakes and tsunamis, quick sufficient transportation of emergency relief supplies is required. Logistics activities conducted to quickly provide appropriate aid (relief goods) people affected by disasters are known humanitarian logistics (HL), play an important role in terms saving the lives those affected. previous last-mile distribution HL, transported t...

Post-disaster humanitarian relief is full of importance, complexity and difficulty, which makes people pay more attentions to various disaster measures emergency management practices related preventions reductions. The main purpose protect the lives victims in affected areas provide with indispensable materials survive from unexpected disaster. Therefore, this paper puts its focus on some key d...

background : postmenopausal hot flash is a common disease amongst women with high prevalence of 75%. hormone replacement therapy (hrt) is a well-known relief of symptoms which has disadvantages such as side effects and contraindication for certain types of hormone related diseases and breast or estrogen related cancers. one of the alternatives is acupuncture which is an east asian and more spec...

In recent years,MANET gain a significant attention for the potential application in battlefield, disaster relief, traffic monitoring and environment monitoring. Construction and maintain of virtual backbone, and energy effective routing in mobile ad hoc wireless network come to be the basic and main problem in MANET. This paper proposed the efficient ENMCDS algorithm for constructing the minimu...

Hospitals provide life-saving functions and emergency assistance to communities when disaster strikes. Any damage to hospitals from a disaster, either structural and non-structural, can impair these capabilities. In addition, an inaccurate estimation of the treatment capacities available at hospitals in a disaster-affected region can severely affect the success of emergency relief plans. In thi...

This paper assesses user–level QoS (perceptual QoS) of audio–video streaming over wireless ad hoc networks. We employ the method of successive categories, which is a psychometric method, for the user–level QoS assessment. In order to achieve high user–level QoS, we employ link quality–based routing, which takes account of link quality such as signal strength and link utilization level for route...

Emergency logistics routing problem, which is premise with the time requirements for emergency logistics and aims at maximum saving delivery time for relief supplies, is a reasonable arrangement of vehicles to run routes. According to the characteristics of time which emergency logistics emphasis on, the delivery route optimization model which the number of delivery vehicles less than demand ar...

Adhoc and sensor wireless networks are challenging and promising field for researchers. These networkingtechnology are not only significant on science and engineering but important on a broad range of applications such as critical infrastructure protection and security, disaster relief operations, biodiversity mapping, medicine and healthcare etc. Wireless Sensor Network applications require Wi...

In this paper, we consider the mobility management in large, hierarchically organized multihop wireless networks. The examples of such networks range from battlefield networks, emergency disaster relief and law enforcement etc. We present a novel network addressing architecture to accommodate mobility using a “Home Agent” concept akin to mobile IP. We distinguish between the “physical” routing ...
