Many of Singapore's five million people are covering up and staying indoors to avoid mosquito bites as health experts warned that the outbreak of the Zika virus in the tropical city-state would be difficult to contain.

One of the world's leading financial hubs, Singapore is the only Asian country with active transmission of the mosquito-borne virus, which generally causes mild symptoms but can lead to serious birth defects in pregnant women.

Authorities say they have found over 150 cases since the first locally contracted infection was reported a week ago, and with the virus spreading beyond the cluster where it was initially detected, more people are taking precautions.

"I'm not going to let her go outside much until Zika dies down," said Nat Bumatay, a self-employed mother, of her six-year-old daughter Sunshine. "Usually during short holidays, we go outside to the parks, go cycling, but now I will refrain."

A warm, tropical climate, forested areas and a network of public parks make outdoor activities popular across Singapore, especially during school holidays like the ten-day break that began on Friday.

Authorities have stepped up spraying insecticide and clearing stagnant water to prevent mosquito breeding, but many people said they were also avoiding the city's popular outdoor food centers and dousing themselves in repellent to avoid getting bitten.

"Prevention is better than cure," said Tomas Quong, a Filipino who has been working in Singapore for five years. "That's why I am wearing long sleeves."

Some fans of Nintendo's Pokemon Go mobile game are also becoming more cautious and crowds at outdoor Pokemon hotspots around the city are likely to be thinner. "I am still okay with outdoors, just not damp and dirty parks," said Nelson Ho, a 19-year-old gamer.

Pharmacies and supermarkets have reported a surge in mosquito repellent's over the past week, with some running out of stock. Online retailers Lazada and have set up a Zika shop, while other enterprising Singaporeans trying to cash in are advertising mosquito net tents and "anti-bite" jewelry.

The outbreak coincides with a slowdown in trade-dependent Singapore. Worries about Zika could further crimp overall retail sales, United Overseas Bank economist Francis Tan said. "If it continues, people will generally not want to go out, so all the retail sectors will be slowing down," Tan said.

Zika could also increase concerns about tourism, a mainstay of the economy, especially with the city-state's key annual attraction - the floodlit Formula One Grand Prix race - due to start in two weeks. Several countries, including the United States and Australia, have advised pregnant women or those trying to conceive not to visit.

"It will certainly create a bit of caution in the minds of tourists and they may think about it twice," said Jonathan Galaviz, partner at consultants Global Market Advisors. "But I don't see Zika standing in the way of a successful F1 event or tourism flows in the short term."

Tourism arrivals topped 8 million in the first half of this year, around 1 million more than a year ago.

The Tourism Board has said it is premature to consider any impact on the industry, with at least two international chain hotels contacted by Reuters reporting business as usual. The promoters of the Grand Prix have also said planning for the event is going ahead "as per normal".

Several of those initially infected by the virus were foreigners, many believed to be among the thousands of migrant workers in Singapore's construction industry.

The latest tally includes two pregnant women, and officials and experts say the number of cases is likely to increase as the virus is likely to spread.

"The virus is extending beyond the square that was drawn out," said Leong Hoe Nam, an infectious disease specialist at Mount Elizabeth Novena hospital in Singapore. "We have re-draw the battle lines. We have to first admit defeat to Zika and accept that the whole country is at risk."

Neurofibromatosis is one of several genetic disorders (neurofibromatosis types I, II, and III) that greatly increase a person’s risk of developing growths or benign neoplasms comprised of nerve tissue, the so-called neurofibroma. Neurofibromatosis is an autosomal dominant disorder, meaning that it is always expressed in individuals who have the gene. Parents with one copy of the gene have a 50% chance of passing the gene on to their children. On the other hand, neurofibromatosis can also occur due to spontaneous mutation with no family history.

Types of neurofibromatosis

Neurofibromatosis type I, the most common type, causes tumors that develop along the nervous system. Type II causes tumors to grow in the part of the brain that carries auditory (hearing) information, resulting in hearing loss. It can also cause tumors along the spine in about half of patients, and it is associated with lesions of the eye, Lisch nodules. Type III, also called schwannomatosis, is the rarest form of neurofibromatosis.

Symptoms of neurofibromatosis type I

Neurofibromatosis type I is most notable by the dark brown spots it causes on the skin, called cafe au lait spots. The disease is also apparent from soft, fleshy, benign tumors called neurofibromas that develop on or under the skin. Neurofibromas occurring on the skin often resemble skin tags. Almost all people with neurofibromatosis develop very small growths on the irises of the eye called Lisch nodules. Lisch nodules do not affect vision.

Most neurofibromas affect the peripheral nervous system, meaning they grow along peripheral nerves rather than the spine or brain. These tumors become more prevalent with age. People with neurofibromatosis are also more likely to develop malignant tumors. The overall risk of malignant tumors in patients under 50 years of age is approximately 2.5 to 4 times higher than in the general population.

Neurofibromatosis type I may cause learning disabilities and epilepsy. While Lisch nodules do not affect vision, vision problems can be caused by tumors that develop around the optic nerves and visual system.

The effects of neurofibromatosis on bone and spine

In infants and children, neurofibromatosis type I can interfere with the development of the spine. The disease can affect the protective covering of the spine, called the dura. Increased pressure in the spinal fluid due to neurofibromas of the spinal nerves can result in dural ectasia, which is a ballooning out of a sac that contains the cerebrospinal fluid. This condition may result in pain in the back and limbs, bladder control problems, and numbness in severe cases.

Neurofibromatosis may cause tumors on an around the spinal cord. Even benign tumors in this area can cause pain and weakness in the most severe cases.

Scoliosis, an irregular side curvature of the spine from left to right, and kyphosis, or a rounded or forward angulated back, occur together or separately in about one in five people with neurofibromatosis type I.

Osteoporosis is common among neurofibromatosis type I sufferers, who generally have lower bone density by age than healthy individuals.

While physical therapy may be able to relieve minor structural problems with the spine, definitive treatment often requires orthopedic surgery. Orthopedic spine surgery, can correct these conditions and restore quality of life to the patient with neurofibromatosis.

Scoliosis and neurofibromatosis

Children with neurofibromatosis type I develop one of two forms of scoliosis, dystrophic or non- dystrophic scoliosis. Non-dystrophic scoliosis, even in children with neurofibromatosis, is quite similar to “typical” scoliosis, called adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

Dystrophic scoliosis, on the other hand, is a form of scoliosis that occurs due to bony changes related to neurofibromas affecting the spine. Dystrophic scoliosis is identified by looking for specific features on X-rays of the spine. For patients and their families, dystrophic scoliosis is known as a more severe form of scoliosis. It may also occur with abnormally thin ribs, weakened vertebral bones, and severe spinal curvatures including kyphosis and rotational deformities and is often associated with dural ectasia.

Treatment for scoliosis due to neurofibromatosis is challenging, particularly when dystrophic scoliosis is present. Effective treatment requires the knowledge and skill of an experienced orthopedic surgeon who specializes in scoliosis treatment.

Patient Story 1

This is a 15 year old young lady with neurofibromatosis involving her spine and causing severe scoliosis requiring corrective surgery. She has done very well following her operation which was over ten years ago.

Patient Story 2

This 13 year-old girl has scoliosis associated with neurofibromatosis. Her curvature progressed significantly over a short period of time. Dr. Lonner performed corrective surgery which resulted in almost 100% correction of her curve.

I purchased this telephone last yer and am pleased to say that I find it great. I wear a hearing aid and have no problems with it at all. I'm used to the ring tones now and find it usefull to be able to distinguish which calls are from family without checking caller display. Even my husband says the phone is so much clearer when he is speaking to someone. The only down side was that at the time of purchase I could only get the phone in white, I think a nice soft grey would have been much better.

Bought because it pays back 1571 over 2years. Only white BT corded answer machine. Really an office machine and design. Have to go through Menus for Caller Display. 15 awful ring tones. Time and date disappear on power fail as no battery back-up. Dreadful push button tones that have to be turned off else everyone hears beep beep for every digit dialled. I expected better of a BT Branded item.
2* Wait until the power fails!
Reviewed by Anonymous on 04/05/2011
We have had 2 of these machines and both failed soon after purchase. I was so sure the replacement would fail that I kept the receipt to hand. After a few months we had a power cut and as before both display lights continue to flash even when there is no new message or call. We've managed to stop the call light by deleting all calls but the answer light refuses to stop even after returning to default settings, manually setting time/date and deleting all messages. So once again all the hassle of dealing with the BT helpline.
Next time we'll look for a machine with a longer reliability life than 6 months.
1* Poor quality
Reviewed by Anonymous on 17/08/2009
I bought this phone because it was promoted as a good appliance for the hard of hearing. The volume control on incoming speech is very poor, ie it doesn't turn up enough. The volume on the ringer is even worse and at it highest can hardly be heard from another room and not at all above the tv or radio. Also the choice of ringer tones is very poor. All in all I feel I wasted my money here.

Used to give my fleece and leather slippers a time to dry out. Light weight and warm especially with some wool sox. My pair was just a bit shorter than I would have liked but the next size larger might have slid off to easily. I expect some stretching over time to not feel my heel on the seam when I walk.

    Home away from home

    Khushwant Singh paid a just tribute to the people of Lahore, calling them “recklessly generous”. Some time ago, when my friend Madhur and I visited the cultural and intellectual epicentre of Pakistan and set out to find our parents’ ancestral homes, we experienced some of that hospitality first-hand. Friends of friends hosted us, took time off from work to show us around and plied us with old-world khatirdari. What we hadn’t expected, and were touched by most of all, was the generosity of perfect strangers. Madhur’s Indian passport had to be stamped every morning, and from the photographer out side the law courts to the police at the station, they would tarry, plying a cup of tea, shuffling for staplers, just to chat about India. What was it like there, how was it different, and most importantly, “What new Ballywood fillum is good?”

    In Model Town, Amjad, our driver parked outside 67 B, the house where my mother’s grandparents once lived. Despite his plea not to slip behind the gates for photo, I stepped in to a lawn encircling a lovely, old, dilapidated house. An hour later, he came looking for me, brows knotted with worry. He found me finishing a second lunch with Abida and her sisters, holding a baby and chatting as though I was one of them. Finding me in her lawn, when she’d heard that I had come from Delhi to see my parents’ homes, she insisted I come in, showed me around, and literally foisted her food and affection on me. The Khaliq family had come from Jalandhar just after the Partition. Hostility had given way to hospitality in one generation.

    Lahore’s streetscape
    Loosing myself in the streets of Lahore, I played the familiar game with myself, pretending I did not know where in the world I was. Delhi is what came to mind first. Neem, peepul and alistonia trees were everywhere. Stately red brick Colonial buildings such as Aitchison College — built by the British for the sons of Punjab’s landed nobility — formed the backdrop to vibrant streets animated with three-wheeler scooters, pani-puri vendors, anar juice stalls, and corn-on-the-cob roasting on coals… Mall Road, Alamgir gate, Badshahi Masjid, Dera Sahib Gurudwara with frescoes of Shah Jahan and Krishan Leela on the ceiling… there was a familiar ring to it all.

    Yet there were differences. Lahore’s streets were not nearly as crowded as Delhi’s. Tall, hirsute men dominated the streets. The restaurants often seated us in a separate “family room” away from where the men sat. At the Mozang Chowk Nihari House, the thick nihari was served with daal and naan, but the menu was sorely bereft of any vegetables.

    The old city
    Enclosed by ramparts dating from the time of Akbar, Lahore’s old city is still surrounded by thirteen handsome gateways. Inside, the winding roads and knotted alleyways came alive with men racing pigeons on terraces and boys raising their kites into the winds. Women in black abayas swished about in the evenings, shopping, trying on bangles, examining the delicacy of zardozi embroidery, pecking at the food stalls. Festooned with decorations and riddled with artisans selling carpets, metalwork, jewellery, shoes and embellished textiles, Bano Bazaar is a mecca for the pre-wedding trousseau hunters. Tongas clipped by, a radio’s volume was turned up, Noorjahan’s dulcet voice and poignant words rent the air… My mind turned to the girl who awaited her lover by a bridge on the canal. For a while it was easy to pretend that that I was part of a bygone era.

Unlimited Forgiveness
—How many times will God forgive?

Many people are troubled by the fact that they must keeping asking God for forgiveness, and they worry that God will grow weary of their repeatedly coming back. However God is not like that.

Jesus says, "Ask, and it shall be given you, seek and you shall find, knock and it shall be opened to you. For everyone who asks receives, and he who seeks finds, and to him who knocks it shall be opened" (Mtt7:7-8).

In the Greek, the verbs ask, seek, and knock, are written in such a way as to indicate, "keep on asking... keep on seeking... keep on knocking".

In this lovely statement Jesus does not specify what "it" is that we are to keep on asking for and seeking. But surely we do not imagine that "it" excludes forgiveness of sins, the very thing that Jesus shed his blood to accomplish (Matthew 26:28)?

Christ’s Blood for All

"This is my blood of the new covenant, shed for many for the forgiveness of sins" (Matthew 26:28). Jesus died not just for a portion of humanity, but for the many.

"Christ himself is the atonement for our sins, and not for ours alone, but for those of the entire world" (1John 2:1-2).

Three Simple Facts

In this lesson I would like you to consider three simple facts about the way God reckons sin in his system of mercy and justice.

These facts help each of us to be confident that God will not turn us away when we "come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need" (Hebrews 4:14-16).

1 God Does Not Count the Times

Peter asked Jesus how many times should he forgive his brother. Peter thought maybe seven times might be a fair limit. But Jesus said "seventy times seven" (Matthew 18:21-22).

Of course Jesus didn't mean literally 490 times, but rather that the number of times are not to be counted.

This is our Lord's principle of forgiveness, and we may be certain that he did not bind it only upon Peter, but also upon himself.

There is no limit

There is no limit on how many times you may ask forgiveness from God, even for the same repeated sin.

This should not, of course, encourage us to keep on sinning. However it should encourage us to keep on repenting, struggling with our sin clothed with the full armour of God (Ephesians 6:10-18), and bringing our sin to the Saviour.

David prayed, when he asked forgiveness, "Have mercy upon me O God, according to your loving kindness, according to the multitude of your tender mercies. Blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin" (Psalms 51:1-13).

In the greatness of God’s compassion, there is a "multitude of tender mercies" and no upper limit on the number of times you can approach him for forgiveness.

2 God Does Not Grade Our Sins

John tells us that "if we confess our sins God is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness" (1John 1:9). The word "all" is very important in that verse and also in verse 7.

Whether our sins are small or great; whether few or many; whether done once or oft-repeated; the blood of Christ can cleanse them all —every single one.

There are no categories

God does not have a sin categorising system where for example...

That may be human justice, but it is not the way God's justice system works. God does not grade sin according to its severity or frequency. "God is not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance" (2Peter 3:9).

That includes all sinners, those who sin little, and those who sin much.

3 God Keeps No Record of Our Wrongs

Paul tells us that love "thinks no evil" and the Greek here can be translated a little more strongly as "reckons not evil" (1Corinthians 13:4-5).

Since this is God's principle of love he practises it himself. When he forgives our wrongs he keeps no record of them.

There is no remembrance

When Jesus saves us, our "names are written in the Lamb’s book of life" (Revelation 21:27, Philippians 4:3). Do we suppose that against our names God has recorded all our sins? No, rather...

Jesus says, "He who comes to me I will not at all cast out" (Jn 6:37).

Our problem in coming to the Lord to obtain forgiveness is not that we have too much sin for him to forgive, but that we have too little faith that he will forgive it. That's because we tend to measure God's mercy and justice by a human measure.

God does not do things by human standards and limitations. He has his own way. So let us listen again and again to his promises and just take him at his word. And when his word shows us that we are forgiven, let us trust his word, not our own feelings.

When we do that, our feelings will begin to change, and instead of guilt we will have "the peace of God which transcends all understanding" (Philippians 4:6-9).

Not only will we have confidence that God has forgiven us, but we will also be able to forgive ourselves.

Elton John Big Man in a Little Suit Lyrics

Lyrics by Bernie Taupin

Oh I've been staying up nights
Thinking about a long flight that could take me home
Or a slow train rolling
Or a big boat floating out there on that lonely ocean

I'm not the man I was
I guess the dark side lost and the sun broke through
I thought I knew it all
I was the next big thing until I thought about you

Oh I was reaching for the stars
When I wasn't even touching you
I was lying to myself, I needed no one's help
thought I was living proof

When there's one set of footsteps
No one's gonna fill your shoes
Now I'm looking in the mirror
At a big man in a little suit

I'm a big man in a little suit
It's tight on me, hard on you
It's a short cut but it's a long way home
When you think you can make it on you own

You think you're bulletproof
But what you really are
Is a big man in a little suit

I was part of the chain
A face with no name in a place with no soul
By a thief in the night
I was robbed of the light and left nothing, nothing to hold

I've turned my back on a world like that
I want to get back to loving you
Give me one more chance
Won't you warm the hands of this cold headed fool

Saturn’s moon looks like the Death Star in new NASA photo

Brittany A. Roston - Jan 11, 2017
Saturn’s moon looks like the Death Star in new NASA photo

Back in 1789, the Saturn moon Mimas was discovered by William Herschel, the man after whom the moon’s Herschel Crater is named. This crater is massive and fairly round in shape, with rising walls around the edge and a large triangular peak in the middle…all of which are reminiscent of the Death Star, earning Mimas its nickname. NASA has just released a new photo showing off the moon and its giant crater with sharp, high-contrast clarity.

NASA published the photo shown above on Monday, though the space agency says the image itself was captured by a narrow-angle camera on the Cassini spacecraft back on October 22 of last year. Multiple spectral filters were used to produce the final image.

The Herschel Crater measures 86 miles in diameter, which is nearly a third of the entire moon’s diameter. The photo itself shows approximately 3,300ft per pixel, and was captured from a huge distance of 115,000 miles. As for the peak within the crater, NASA says it is almost as tall as Mt. Everest.

The photo was made possible thanks the work being done by NASA, the Italian Space Agency, and the European Space Agency. NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory manages the Cassini project, however, doing so on the behalf of NASA’s Science Mission Directorate. We’ll no doubt see other Cassini photos in the future, as the spacecraft is equipped with two cameras.

Presentation Transcript

Introduction l.jpg

  • Mobile ad hoc networks (MANETs) are infrastructureless and intercommunicate using single-hop and multi-hop paths

  • Nodes act both as hosts and routers

  • Topology changes could occur randomly, rapidly, and frequently

  • Routing paths are created and deleted due to the nodal mobility

Applications of manets l.jpg
Applications of MANETs

  • Collaborative computing

  • Communications within buildings, organizations, ad hoc conferences

  • Communications in battlefields and disaster recovery areas

  • Sensor networks

Quality of service qos l.jpg
Quality of Service (QoS)

  • QoS: A set of service requirements that are met by the network while transferring a packet stream from a source to a destination

  • QoS metrics could be defined in terms of one or a set of parameters

  • Examples: delay, bandwidth, packet loss, delay-jitter, etc.

Qos in manets l.jpg

  • The use of QoS-aware applications are evolving in the wireless environments

  • Resource limitations and variations adds to the need for QoS provisioning

  • Use of MANETs in critical and delay sensitive applications demands service differentiation

Issues and difficulties l.jpg
Issues and Difficulties

  • Unpredictable link properties

  • Node mobility

  • Limited battery life

  • Hidden terminal problem

  • Exposed terminal problem

  • Route maintenance

  • Security

Compromising principles l.jpg
Compromising Principles

  • Soft QoS

    • After the connection set-up, there may exist transient periods of time when QoS specification is not honored

    • The level QoS satisfaction is quantified by the fraction of total disruption

  • QoS Adaptation

    • As available resources change, the network can readjust allocations within the reservation range (dynamic QoS)

    • Applications can also adapt to the re-allocations

Qos support in physical channels l.jpg
QoS Support in Physical Channels

  • Since wireless channel is time varying, the SNR in channels fluctuates with time

  • Adaptive modulation which can tune many possible parameters according to current channel state is necessary to derive better performance

  • Major challenge: channel estimation – accurate channel estimation at the receiver and then the reliable feedback to the transmitter

  • Wireless channel coding needs to address the problems introduced by channel or multipath fading and mobility

  • Cross-layer issue: Joint source-channel coding takes both source characteristics and channel conditions into account

Qos provisioning at the mac layer l.jpg
QoS Provisioning at the MAC Layer

  • For providing QoS guarantee for real-time traffic support in wireless networks, several MAC protocols based on centralized control have been proposed

  • For multihop networks:

    • The MAC protocol must be distributed in nature

    • It should solve the hidden and exposed terminal problems

Ieee 802 11 dcf l.jpg
IEEE 802.11 DCF

  • IEEE 802.11 is a CSMA/CA protocol

  • In the distributed control function (DCF) mode:

    • After the node has sensed the medium to be idle for a time period longer than distributed inter-frame space (DIFS), it begins transmitting

    • Otherwise the node differs transmitting and backs off

    • When the medium becomes idle for a period longer than DIFS, the backoff timer is decremented periodically. The node starts transmission as soon as the timer expires

    • To reduce collisions, the sender and the receiver exchange RTS and CTS packets

Qos support using ieee 802 11 dcf l.jpg
QoS Support using IEEE 802.11 DCF

  • IEEE 802.11 DCF is a best-effort type control algorithm

  • The duration of backoff is decided by a random number between 0 and the contention window (CW).

  • Service differentiation can be achieved by using different values of CW

  • When packets collide, the ones with smaller CW is more likely to occupy the medium earlier

Black burst contention scheme l.jpg
Black Burst Contention Scheme

  • Nodes with best-effort traffic and nodes with real-time traffic use different inter-frame space values

  • When the medium remains idle long enough, right before sending their packets, nodes with real-time packets first contend for transmission right by jamming the media with pulses of energy, called BBs

  • Each contending node uses a BB of different length. The number of slots that forms a BB is an increasing function of the contention delay experienced by the node

  • Following each BB transmission, a node senses the channel for an observation interval

  • Since distinct nodes contend for BBs of different length, each node can determine without ambiguity whether its BB is of longest duration

Maca pr l.jpg

  • Multihop Access Collision Avoidance with Piggyback Reservation provides guaranteed bandwidth support for real-time traffic

  • The first packet in a real-time stream uses RTS/CTS dialogs to make reservations in the path

  • The sender schedules the next transmission after the current data transmission and piggybacks the reservation in the current data packet

  • Upon receiving the data packet correctly, the receiver updates its reservation table and sends an ACK

  • ACK serves for the renewal of reservation, not for recovering from packet losses

Qos aware routing at the network layer l.jpg
QoS-aware Routing at the Network Layer

  • Types of MANET routing protocols:

    • Proactive, table-based routing schemes

    • Reactive, on-demand routing schemes

    • Constraint-based routing schemes

  • These algorithms are based on the discovery of shortest paths

  • QoS-aware routing protocol should find a path that satisfies the QoS requirements in the path from source to the destination

Cedar l.jpg

  • Core Extraction Distributed Ad hoc Routing scheme dynamically establishes the core of the network, and then incrementally propagates the link states of stable high-bandwidth links to the core nodes

  • The route computation is on demand basis

  • Components of CEDAR

    • Core extraction

    • Link-state propagation

    • Route computation

Integrating qos in flooding based route discovery l.jpg
Integrating QoS in Flooding-Based Route Discovery

  • Ticket-based probing algorithm

    • During the QoS-satisfying path search, each probing message is provided a limited number of tickets to reduce the scope of flooding

    • When one or more probes arrive at the destination, the path and delay/bandwidth information is used to perform reservation for the QoS-satisfying path

    • A simple imprecise model is used for the algorithm

Panda approach l.jpg
PANDA Approach

  • Positional Attributes based Next hop Determination Approach (PANDA) discriminates the next hop based on the desired QoS metric

  • Instead of using a random rebroadcast delay, the receiver opts for a delay proportional to its ability in meeting the QoS demands

  • The decisions at the receivers are made based on a predetermined set of thresholds

Qos support using bandwidth calculations l.jpg
QoS Support using Bandwidth Calculations

  • The end-to-end bandwidth can be calculated and allocated during the admission control phase

  • Using TDMA, time is divided into slots, which in turn are grouped into frames

  • Each frame contains two phases: control and data.

  • During the control phase, each node takes turns to broadcast its information to all the neighbors in a predetermined slot.

  • At the end of control phase, each node knows about the free slots between itself and its neighbors

  • Thus bandwidth calculation and allocation can be done in a distributed manner

Multi path qos routing l.jpg
Multi-path QoS Routing

  • The algorithms searches for multiple paths between the source and the destination that collectively satisfies the QoS requirements

  • Suitable for ad hoc networks with limited bandwidth

  • A ticket based probing scheme is adopted for the path searching process

Transport layer issues for qos provisioning l.jpg
Transport Layer Issues for QoS Provisioning

  • TCP performs poorly in terms of end-to-end throughput in MANETs

    • The assumption used in Internet that packet losses are due to congestion is not valid in MANET environments

  • TCP performance improvement in wireless networks:

    • Local retransmissions

    • Split-TCP connections

    • Forward error corrections (FEC)

  • Explicit feedback mechanisms to distinguish between losses due to errors and congestion is necessary for QoS provisioning in MANETs

  • Efficient techniques for resource management is necessary for QoS provisioning

Application layer issues l.jpg
Application Layer Issues

  • Application level QoS adaptation belong to adaptive strategies that play a vital role in supporting QoS

    • Flexible user interfaces, dynamic QoS ranges, adaptive compression algorithms, joint source-channel coding, joint source-network coding schemes

  • Adaptive real-time audio/video streaming support can be provided by enhancing:

    • Compression algorithms, layered encoding, rate shaping, adaptive error control, and bandwidth smoothing

Inter layer design approaches l.jpg
Inter-Layer Design Approaches

  • Efficient intercommunication protocols need to conserve scarce resources – something difficult to achieve following the strict separation of the protocol layer functionalities

  • Inter-layer or cross-layer issues needs to be examined

  • Examples: INSIGNIA and iMAQ

Insignia l.jpg

  • Goal: To support adaptive services which can provide base QoS assurances to real-time voice and video flows and data, allowing for enhanced level of service to be delivered when resources become available

  • Designed to adapt user sessions to the available level of service without explicit signaling between source-destination pairs

  • QoS functionality is decoupled from the routing protocol

  • INSIGNIA uses in-band signaling approach to restore the flow-state in response to topology changes

  • Uses the concept of “soft connection”

Slide25 l.jpg

  • Integrated Mobile Ad Hoc QoS (iMAQ) is a cross-layer architecture to support the transmission of multimedia data over a MANET

  • iMAQ framework model

  • Uses a predictive location-based QoS routing protocol

  • The middleware predicts the location and the group partitioning based on the moving pattern

  • Middleware may renegotiate QoS with applications when the resource availability degrades

  • Data is replicated when a network partition is predicted

IoT is tested with these Quality attributes

An Internet of Things (IoT) solution is built up from items that together create new functionality. The separate elements form an IoT ecosystem. Testing the entire system must be thought of at an early stage in IoT product development.

Forget functional testing
Define a product with a set of requirements and all functionality (that is written down) can be tested. As said an IoT solution consists of separate elements that can be functionally tested . The IoT ecosystem as a whole behaves according to different rules. The possible connections to 3rd party IoT products are endless. As a result it will be impossible to describe the behaviour in every situation. One of the elements of setting up an IoT test strategy is looking at the non-functional behaviour of the whole solution[...]

In Devon/ England

Sand beneath my feet, salt in my hair, head in the clouds, it’s not often that I find myself speechless. But that’s exactly how I feel at Bigbury-on-Sea. I also love the Boxing day* tradition of jumping into the sea sans wetsuit. Maybe it’s the beautiful scenery, more likely it’s the freezing cold water… but I am completely lost for words (not a regular occurrence).

Bigbury-on-Sea is not only the perfect place for a freezing winter dip in the sea, but a dream destination for surfers and hikers alike. Throughout the ages, the site has been used as a home for a small religious community dedicated to St Michael, scores of fishermen, Elizabethan smugglers and a WWII hospital.

*Boxing day is a public holiday in the UK, The Bahamas, Barbados, Canada, Hong Kong, Australia, Bermuda, New Zealand, Kenya, South Africa, Guyana, Trinidad and Tobago and Jamaica. Although the exact origin for the holiday is unclear, it was traditionally the day when servants would receive gifts from their employers in a box known as the ‘Christmas box’.

The giant causeway at Bigbury-on-Sea is the jewel in the crown of Bigbury Bay. With views over the surrounding cliffs, when the tide recedes, a beautiful sandy beach is revealed.

The nature of the tidal causeway means that it is possible to walk out to sea for hundreds of metres in knee deep water.

bigbury-on-sea beach

Burgh Island

A tidal island, much like the nearby tidal island of St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall, twice a day the tide draws in, rendering the island impassable- safe for the ‘sea tractor’ that ferries people back and forth during these periods for a small fee.

The entirety of the island is crisscrossed by tiny pathways that offer spectacular views out onto the open sea (on a clear day, that is).

burgh island bigbury on sea

Pilchard Inn

Considering that ‘pilchard’ is another name for a sardine, it’s not hard to see how this pub acquired its name.

Supposedly frequented by the notorious smuggler Tom Crocker, who used the island (then known as Burr Island) as his base, the pub is reputedly still haunted by his ghost many centuries later.

Although very little is known about this Elizabethan smuggler, he was apparently shot dead on the very steps of the Inn.

Today, the inn is the perfect place to get a refreshment after exploring the little pathways that zigzag across the island.

pilchard inn burgh island

Burgh Island Hotel

The art-deco style hotel gained fame for its portrayal in a Poirot case ‘Evil Under the Sun’ by local writer Agatha Chritie.

Built in the late 1920s, the grade 2 listed building is an impressive feat of architecture. During the second world war, it was used as a military hospital for wounded RAF servicemen before bombing destroyed the upper floors.

In the 1990s it was bought and revived into the hotel that is seen today.

Former Chapel

With breathtaking views over the sea, the ruins of the Huers hut on the site of a chapel dedicated to St Michael, are hard to miss.

Perched at the highest point of the island, fishermen would have sat in the hut on colder days, watching and waiting for any sign of shoals of sardines.

The Beach

Don’t forget your swimsuit (or more likely wetsuit) when you visit Bigbury. Windsurfing, kitesurfing, bodyboarding and surfing are all popular here.

The sandy beach makes for a perfect place to picnic, build sandcastles or walk the dog (in the winter months).

    Hi Sophie,

    the coastline of Devon looks amazing! I visited Cornwall a few years ago (lovely memories!) in early October, it was pretty warm for that time of the year, but I only dipped my toes in the cold ocean. Can’t imagine a Boxing Day swim! 🙂
