Broadcast is one of the fundamental network communication primitives. One node of a network, called the source, has a message that has to be learned by all other nodes. We consider broadcast in radio networks, modeled as simple undirected connected graphs with a distinguished source. Nodes communicate in synchronous rounds. In each round, a node can either transmit a message to all its neighbou...

ranking the viewpoint of experts and farmers is an approach to determine the factors causing the yield gap. for this purpose, two different questionnaire types but with same questions designed for both agricultural specialists and farmers. after answering, the questionnaires of agricultural experts and farmers were analyzed through ahp and entropy techniques, respectively. both techniques deter...

Information on the effect of planting date and irrigation on soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.] seed composition in the Early Soybean Production System (ESPS) is deficient, and what is available is inconclusive. The objective of this research was to investigate the effects of planting date on seed protein, oil, fatty acids, sugars, and minerals in soybean grown under irrigated (I) and non-irrigat...


 A radio station with the name Radio Arrisalah 95.7 FM stands its own special features from other stations, namely Islamic character. One of most riveting programs that has been able to attract loyal listeners over years is Tahsin program. As a result, this program become learning tool for all ages, especially mothers who regularly listen on fm it every day. The purpose study was find out...

During the 1991 and 1992 soybean growing seasons, field plots were established in South Carolina to study the effect of planting date on at-planting nematode densities and subsequent yield losses caused by Hoplolaimus columbus. The susceptible and intolerant soybean cv. Braxton was planted on five dates from to May to 28 June in 1991 and from 12 May to 28 June in 1992. Nematodes were recovered ...

In this paper, we investigate the performance of LTE Multicast-Broadcast Single-Frequency Networks (MBSFN). LTE-MBSFN is viewed as one of the most promising candidates for vehicular communications which can enhance reliability of vehicular application traffic. This is achieved due to the possibility to efficiently support message exchange in-between vehicles by multicasting information to sever...

Video-on-Demand services are increasing rapidly nowadays. The load on servers can be very high, even exceeding their capacity. For popular contents, we can use a Periodic Broadcast (PB) strategy using multicast to serve all clients. Recent development of PB uses multiple channels broadcasting for segments of movies in certain patterns, so that users only need to wait for a small segment to star...

Wireless broadcasting system is of major two types namely push-based and pull-based. Extensible Markup Language (XML) is used to represent any information due to its inherent potential features such as scalable, self-describing, etc. Hence XML is chosen as standard for information dissemination in wireless broadcasting systems. Push based system periodically broadcasts XML data over the wireles...

This paper discusses the development of trainable statistical models for extracting content from television and radio news broadcasts. In particular we concentrate on statistical finite state models for identifying proper names and other named entities in broadcast speech. Two models are presented: the first represents name class information as a word attribute; the second represents both word-...

The pervasiveness of social media has resulted in increased public involvement in key discussions about social issues, as well as creating greater affordances for individual expression and collective mobilisation. In December 2012, the rape and murder of a 23-year-old Indian student in New Delhi, India, was followed by widespread condemnation and public action organised and coordinated through ...
