To provide effective communication in the wireless mesh network (WMN), several algorithms have been proposed. Since the possibilities of numerous failures always exist during communication, resiliency has been proven to be an important aspect for WMN to recover from these failures. In general, resiliency is the diligence of the reliability and availability in network. Several types of resilienc...

OBJECTIVES The present study explores savouring, defined as the process of attending to positive experiences, as a mediator in the relationships between resiliency, trait emotional intelligence (EI), and subjective mental health in older adults. Following Fredrickson's Broaden and Build Theory of positive emotions, the present study aims to extend our understanding of the underlying processes t...

Not only is resiliency a term with a myriad of definitions microscopically specified by a wide variety of social and bio/physical scientists and practitioners, it is also incredibly complicated even when treated by individual academic/government/non-profit and business practitioners who are convinced that they have the perfect definition. By then linking the concepts of infrastructure and commu...

This paper presents a general methodology to calculate the resiliency of complex engineered systems based on complex network theory. Graph spectral theory has been used simultaneously with complex network theory for years. Resiliency is a key driver in how systems are developed to operate in an expected operating environment, and how systems change and respond to the environments in which they ...

Results from the artificial life community show that under some conditions evolving populations converge on broader, but less fit peaks in the fitness landscape and avoid more fit, but narrower peaks. Results from the evolutionary computation community show that over time genotypes evolve to become more resilient, where resiliency (or genetic robustness) is defined as the ability of an individu...

OBJECTIVES The purpose of the research is to investigate the mediating role of coping strategies for stress in the relation between resiliency and post-traumatic growth in a group of paramedics. MATERIAL AND METHODS Data of 80 paramedics who have experienced traumatic event at their worksites was analyzed. The age range of the participants was 21-67 years old (mean: 35.47, standard deviation:...

This research study measures how mothers perceive and use touch with their infants, and its association with maternal resiliency, a measure of coping ability. This is important because the inability to cope causes increased stress, which increases negative perceptions of life events, making it even more difficult to cope. In addition, research has yet to uncover whether resiliency is increased ...

Purpose Patients with breast cancer experience considerable stress and anxiety related to their diagnosis, with resulting lower quality of life. The current study was designed to assess the effect of a Stress Management and Resiliency Training (SMART) program for increasing resiliency and decreasing stress and anxiety among a group of mentors who themselves previously were diagnosed with breast...

Because the PUF taps into the random variation during an IC fabrication process, the secret is extremely difficult to predict or extract and thus in terms of five following characteristics they are more powerful than RFIDs: 1) Unpredictability 2) Resiliency against reverse engineering 3) Stability against voltage variations 4) stability against imperfection of arbiters 5) Resiliency against dig...
