Distortion Optimized Packet Scheduling and Prioritization of Multiple Video Streams over 802.11e Networks by Ilias Politis, Michail Tsagkaropoulos, Thomas Pliakas, Tasos Dagiuklas

“…Two intelligent scheduling algorithms are proposed: the “even-loss distribution,” where each video sender is experiencing the same loss and the “greedy-loss distribution” packet scheduling, where selected packets are dropped over all streams, ensuring that the most significant video stream in terms of picture context and quality characteristics will experience minimum losses. …”

Effect of Aquatic Exercises on Strength and Quality of Life in Sarcopenia Older Individuals by Aslı Nur Menteş, Büşra Çetin

“…Nutrition is one of the important factors affecting muscle mass and is a characteristic feature of the continuous loss of muscular mass in the aging process. However, sarcopenia, defined as age-related loss of skeletal muscle mass, leads to a deterioration in muscle quantity and quality, gradual slowdown in movements, decreased strength and performance, increased risk of fall-associated injury, and often a decrease in body weight. …”
