VEIL (Virtual Ethernet Identifier Layer) is a novel concept for below IP networking. It addresses the scalability, efficiency and reliability challenges facing the traditional Ethernet, while retaining its simplicity. Furthermore, it provides a uniform (below IP) convergence layer to support a large, dynamic and heterogeneous (layer-2) network that is capable of connecting hundreds of thousands...

1. In case Cerianthus is acted upon by two lights of unequal intensities the relation between the angle turned and the ratio between the intensities of the two lights is mathematically expressed by the equation log(10) See PDF for Equation tan a, in which See PDF for Equation is the ratio of the two lights, a is the angle turned from the neutral position, and K = 0.615. 2. According to publishe...

Objective: It is believed that drivers play a crucial role in accidents. Paying attention to brake lights, a driver may find out about danger and react. Rear-end collision accidents refer to the part of the accidents due to driver inattention or slow reaction. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of dynamic flashing brake lights (7 Hz) on drivers' brake reaction time using the driv...
