Background and Aim: Brain mapping is a study of the anatomy and function of the CNS (central nervous system). Brain mapping has many techniques and these techniques are permanently changing and updating. From the beginning, brain mapping was invasive and for brain mapping, electrical stimulation of the exposed brain was needed. However, nowadays brain mapping does not require electrical stimula...

Energy aware routing protocols can be classified into energy saver and energy manager. Energy saver protocols decrease energy consumption totally. Most of them try to find the shortest path between source and destination to reduce energy consumption. But energy manager protocols balance energy consumption in network to avoid network partitioning. Finding best route only based on energy balancin...

The details of the future will remain forever veiled to us. But give a gypsy seer a Ph.D. in economics and arm her with statistics and mathematical models, and people suddenly start taking her seriously. She will be invited to testify before Congress and held up by State TV as an expert in business forecasting. But from an analytical point of view, what she does is no different from what she di...

The Materials Measurement Science Division at NIST has a significant effort in support of trace contraband detection and forensic microscopy and analysis. Characterization of the particle characteristics (size, morphology, chemical composition and areal coverage) of trace contraband residues on surfaces is critical for developing optimized sampling strategies for current and emerging trace dete...
