„ Practices and interventions aimed at increasing resilience in children generally focus on one of three outcomes: building the capacity to be resilient in all children (universal programs); the capacity to be resilient in vulnerable children or those facing chronic adversity; or the capacity to be resilient in children exposed to one-off traumatic events or disasters. KEY MESSAGES Is resilienc...

In this paper, a novel resilient multi-echelon closed-loop location-allocation-inventory problem (RMCLIP) is addressed that optimizes strategic and tactical decisions simultaneously. In order to represent the purchasing cost of raw material from the supplier, a pricing model under quantity discounts is employed in the closed-loop supply chain (CLSC). Considering the capability of returning the ...

Continuing research begun in 2], we investigate problems of reserving capacity in the arcs of a network, subject to the constraint that, on the failure of any one arc, there is enough reserved capacity on the remaining arcs to support a ow of value T from a source s to a destination t. We also impose upper bounds on the amount of capacity we may reserve on the arcs: this alters the nature of th...

This investigation applied Zautra and colleagues’ Dynamic Model of Affect (DMA; Zautra: 2003, Emotions, Stress and Health (Oxford University Press, New York); Reich et al.: 2003, Review of General Psychology 7(1), pp. 66–83) to help understand resilience among a sample of middleaged participants coping with the recent death of a spouse or child. We replicated and extended this model by examinin...

Peer-to-peer systems are positioned to take advantage of gains in network bandwidth, storage capacity, and computational resources to provide long-term durable storage infrastructures. In this paper, we quantitatively compare building a distributed storage infrastructure that is self-repairing and resilient to faults using either a replicated system or an erasure-resilient system. We show that ...

a non-malleable code is a variant of an encoding scheme which is resilient to tampering attacks. the main idea behind nonmalleable coding is that the adversary should not be able to obtain any valuable information about the message. non-malleablecodes are used in tamper-resilient cryptography and protecting memories against tampering attacks. many different types of nonmalleability have already...

resilient modulus of pavement materials is a key property required for the pavement thickness design. this paper describes the results of an experimental study on the effects of temperature and loading frequency on the resilient modulus of a sbs polymer modified asphalt concrete under dry and saturated conditions. dynamic creep tests were conducted on dry and saturated specimens of the mixture ...
