In this paper, error resilience is achieved by adaptive, application-layer rateless channel coding, which is used to protect H.264/Advanced Video Coding (AVC) codec data-partitioned videos.A packetization strategy is an effective tool to control error rates and, in the paper, source-coded data partitioning serves to allocate smaller packets to more

The interaction between selenomethionine (SeMet) and n-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (n-3 PUFA) in producing n-3 PUFA-enriched pork remains unknown.This study investigates the effect of different n-3 PUFA sources (linseed oil vs.fish tennessee vols boots oil) and SeMet supplementation on meat quality and fatty acid composition in finishing pigs.Key

Abstract Background Phlebotomine sand flies are incriminated in the transmission of several human and veterinary pathogens.To elucidate their role as vectors, proper species identification is crucial.Since traditional morphological determination is based on minute and often dubious characteristics on their head and genitalia, which require ping pld

Surveys bauhaus stencil concerning weather sensitivity, which have been carried out throughout Germany, came to the conclusion that more than every second German assumes that he/she is suffering from weather sensitivity.These surveys show how important weather sensitivity is for public health.The aim of this study was to analyse the associations be

The regular inspection of underground facilities such as pipelines is absolutely essential.Pipeline leakage caused by corrosion and deformation must be detected in time, otherwise, it may cause fatal disasters for human beings.In our previous research, a robot chain system (RCS) based on visible light relay communication (VLRC) for pipe inspection
