Use of biomineralisation in developing smart concrete inspired by nature
(Inderscience, 2015)
Recently, interest has focused on leveraging the biological functions of microorganisms to develop smart cement-based materials. This paper provides an overview of the calcium carbonate biomineralisation process in nature ...
Policy conflict resolution in IoT via planning
(Advances in Artificial Intelligence, 2017)
With the explosion of connected devices to automate tasks, manually governing interactions among such devices—and associated services—has become an impossible task. This is because devices have their own obligations and ...
Relay-assisted OFDM for NLOS ultraviolet communication
(2015)
Ultraviolet (UV) communication enables non-line-of-sight (NLOS) outdoor wireless connectivity and is particularly desirable to relax or eliminate pointing and tracking requirements of infrared links. The main two degrading ...
Measurement of the ZZ production cross section and Z -> l(+)l(-)l '(+)l '(-) branching fraction in pp collisions at root s=13TeV
(Elsevier, 2016)
Four-lepton production in proton-proton collisions, pp -> (Z/gamma*)(Z/gamma*)-> l(+)l(-)l '(+)l '(-), where l,l '(-) = e or mu, is studied at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV with the CMS detector at the LHC. The data ...
Islamic capitalism and the rise of religious-conservative big business
(Taylor & Francis, 2020)
This chapter argues that the rise of “Islamic capitalism” and the country’s so-called “conservative bourgeoisie” owes much to the pragmatism and agility of Islamic actors who are quick to seize upon new economic and political ...
Survival of branching Brownian motion in a uniform trap field
(Elsevier, 2016-03)
We study a branching Brownian motion Z evolving in Rd, where a uniform field of Poissonian traps are present. We consider a general offspring distribution for Z and find the asymptotic decay rate of the annealed survival ...
Search for dark matter inproton-proton collisions at 8 TeV with missing transverse momentum and vector boson tagged jets
(Springer International Publishing, 2016-12-16)
A search is presented for an excess of events with large missing transverse momentum in association with at least one highly energetic jet, in a data sample of protonproton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. ...
Spoofing voice verification systems with statistical speech synthesis using limited adaptation data
(Elsevier, 2017-03)
State-of-the-art speaker verification systems are vulnerable to spoofing attacks using speech synthesis. To solve the issue, high-performance synthetic speech detectors (SSDs) for attack methods have been proposed recently. ...
Measurement of prompt and nonprompt J/psi production in pp and pPb collisions at root s(NN)=5.02 TeV
(Springer International Publishing, 2017-04)
This paper reports the measurement of J/psi meson production in proton proton (pp) and proton lead (pPb) collisions at a center-of-mass energy per nucleon pair of 5.02 TeV by the CMS experiment at the LW. The data samples ...
Measurement of dijet azimuthal decorrelation in pp collisions at root s=8 TeV
(Springer International Publishing, 2016)
A measurement of the decorrelation of azimuthal angles between the two jets with the largest transverse momenta is presented for seven regions of leading jet transverse momentum up to 2.2. The analysis is based on the ...
