Design of a Dynamic Simulator for a Biped Robot by Diego A. Bravo M, Carlos F. Rengifo Rodas

“…The intermittent nature of these forces and the mathematical inequalities that they must satisfy lead to models described by hybrid algebraic differential equations. In this paper, a simulator was developed for a seven degrees of freedom planar biped robot, which was modeled using the Euler-Lagrange formulation. …”

Analysis and improvement of route switch in IEEE 802.11s by Bo YOU, Yue-peng YAN

“…Analyzed the route switch of hybrid wireless mesh protocol(HWMP)in IEEE 802.11s and made an improve-ment to reduce the packet lost rate when routes switching was analyzed.Based on the received signal strength indica-tor(RSSI)a scheme with judgment threshold in mesh peer link management protocol was proposed,which controlled the status of peer link to change the timing of route switch.In this way,the packet lost was avoided.The experimental results show that the improvement reduces the packet lost rate by 2%~5% compared with traditional IEEE 802.11s in uncon-trolled wireless environment when nodes moving in low speed.…”

Occupy Waikīkī: pushing the borders of land, sea and story-telling in Kristiana Kahakauwila’s This is Paradise (2013) by Sylvie Largeaud-Ortega

“…With special references to autochthonous antinuclear protests and claims to sovereignty (Trask, Teaiwa, Walker), it argues that female author and characters all Occupy Waikīkī, as colonials, as resistants, or as hybrid cultural agents. The beach becomes a place of Native political, environmental and cultural resistance, where American colonialism, ‘militourism’ and Globalising capitalism are being challenged. …”

Anonymous vehicle authentication scheme based on blockchain technology in the intersection scenario by Hao WANG, Tianhao WU, Konglin ZHU, Lin ZHANG

“…With the development of intelligent transportation system,the vehicles will no longer be controlled by the traditional traffic light when they enter or leave the intersection.Instead,they will interact with the local server (LS) near the intersection and accept the regulation of LS.The basic of the security vehicle communication at intersections is authentication of network node.Based on this,an anonymous vehicle authentication scheme based on blockchain technology was proposed.The scheme employed a hybrid cryptography based on identity and hash message authentication code,and recorded the authentication results in blockchains.According to simulation testing and result analysis,the scheme ensures the anonymity and privacy-preserving,with less communication overhead compared to other methods.…”
