As the Internet of Things permeates every aspect of human life, assessing the credence or integrity of the data generated by “things” becomes a central exercise for making decisions or in auditing events. In this paper, we present a vision of this exercise that includes the notion of data credence, assessing data credence in an efficient manner, and the use of technologies that are on the horiz...

The expansion of the white goods industry is directly related to level consumer contentment, quality after-sale care, and likelihood future product purchases. To ensure customer happiness, businesses must do things like promptly replacing broken components throughout product's warranty term providing straightforward instructions for obtaining assistance. It crucial companies selling consumables...

The complete charge-current density and field strength of an arbitrarily accelerated relativistic point-charge are explicitly calculated. The current density includes, apart from the well-established delta-function term which is sufficient for its global conservation, additional contributions depending on the second and third proper-time derivatives of the position, which are necessary for its ...

In this article, we consider pair frames in Banach spaces and   introduce Banach pair frames. Some various concepts in the frame theory such as frames, Schauder frames, Banach frames and atomic decompositions are considered as   special kinds of (Banach) pair frames.  Some frame-like inequalities  for (Banach)  pair frames are presented. The elements that participant  in the construction of (Ba...

We study the problem of covariant separation between first and second class constraints for the D = 10 Brink-Schwarz superparticle. Opposite to the supersymmetric light-cone frame separation, we show here that there is a Lorentz covariant way to identify the second class constraints such that, however, supersymmetry is broken. Consequences for the D = 10 superstring are briefly discussed.

Within the school environment, interactions between people and interactions between people and things are affected by situated, contextual factors. Context includes not only physical characteristics, but psychological, and social characteristics as well. Moreover, context is understood in terms of both past and present circumstances. Computer applications designed to support group activity, lik...

This paper defines presence in terms of frames and involvement [1]. The value of this analysis of presence is demonstrated by applying it to several issues that have been raised about presence: residual awareness of nonmediation, imaginary presence, presence as categorical or continuum, and presence breaks. The paper goes on to explore the relationship between presence and reality. Goffman intr...

Internet of Things (IoT) solutions are increasingly being deployed for smart applications. With the rise of smart cities there is a need for low cost and long range Low Power Wide Area Network (LPWAN) technologies. LoRaWAN is an energy efficient and cheap LPWAN solution. It is rapidly being adopted all around the world. LoRaWAN however does not provide communication robustness in its basic conf...
