The Future Internet will provide seamless connectivity via heterogeneous networks. The Y-Comm Architecture is a reference model that has been developed to build future mobile systems for heterogeneous environments. However, the emergence of Software Defined Networking and Network Functional Virtualization will allow the implementation of advanced mobile architectures such as Y-Comm to be protot...

In recent years, architectures, devices, and components in telecommunication networks have been challenged by evolutionary and revolutionary factors which are drastically changing the traffic features. Most of these changes imply the need for major re-configurability and programmability not only in data-centers and core networks, but also in the metro-access segment. In a wide variety of contex...

a projective parameter of a geodesic as solution of certain ode is defined to be a parameter which is invariant under projective change of metric. using projective parameter and poincaré metric, an intrinsic projectively invariant pseudo-distance can be constructed. in the present work, solutions of the above ode are characterized with respect to the sign of parallel ricci tensor on a finsler s...

background: umbilical cord tissue is a very rich source of mesenchymal stem cells. instead of discarding this source we are banking the tissue along with cord blood for possible future cell based applications. the cord tissue needs to be transported and stored properly in order for it to be good enough for cell isolation at a later date. in this paper we have carried out a validation study to d...

An increase in the frequency of blood donation among the donor population is liable to result in excessive iron loss and development of iron deficiency anemia. In the majority of blood banks, hemoglobin and/or hematocrit measurements are used as screening tests for the ability to donate blood even though iron stores may be depleted in donors with hemoglobin values above the arbitrarily defi...
