Clinical relevance optometric practice is underpinned by a rigorous research base, the primary evidence for which publications in refereed scientific journals. Leading optometrists who publish this work should be identified and celebrated.Background This aims to derive publication metrics of leading researchers worldwide.Methods: An extensive global search was conducted discover researchers; 48...

Long-range active imaging has widespread applications in remote sensing and target recognition. Single-photon light detection ranging (lidar) been shown to have high sensitivity temporal resolution. On the application front, however, operating range of practical single-photon lidar systems is limited about tens kilometers over Earth’s atmosphere, mainly due weak echo signal mixed with backgroun...

In this paper we suggest the need for a new class of transport service to handle the requirements of digital continuous-media data transfers and other applications that may desire to trade off data completeness for latency considerations. Specifically, we define a Partially Error-Controlled Connection service under which the user submits applicationand endsystem-specific parameters to coordinat...
