The Delphi Technique: Making Sense of Consensus
The Delphi technique is a widely used and accepted method for gathering data from respondents within their domain of expertise. The technique is designed as a group communicatio...
High Performance of <sup>18</sup>F-Fluorodeoxyglucose Positron Emission Tomography and Contrast-Enhanced CT in a Rapid Outpatient Diagnostic Program for Patients with Suspected Lung Cancer
<b><i>Background:</i></b> The diagnostic evaluation of patients presenting with possible lung cancer is often complex and time consuming. A rapid outpati...
Toll-Like Receptor Triggering of a Vitamin D-Mediated Human Antimicrobial Response
In innate immune responses, activation of Toll-like receptors (TLRs) triggers direct antimicrobial activity against intracellular bacteria, which in murine, but not human, monoc...
Reconfigurable Intelligent Surfaces for Energy Efficiency in Wireless Communication
The adoption of a Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface (RIS) for downlink multi-user communication from a multi-antenna base station is investigated in this paper. We develop ener...
Shape modeling with front propagation: a level set approach
Shape modeling is an important constituent of computer vision as well as computer graphics research. Shape models aid the tasks of object representation and recognition. This pa...
Trust as a Social Reality
Although trust is an underdeveloped concept in sociology, promising theoretical formulations are available in the recent work of Luhmann and Barber. This sociological version co...
Safeguarding human health in the Anthropocene epoch: report of The Rockefeller Foundation–Lancet Commission on planetary health
Earth's natural systems represent a growing threat to human health. And yet, global health has mainly improved as these changes have gathered pace. What is the explanation? As a...
A highly adaptive distributed routing algorithm for mobile wireless networks
We present a new distributed routing protocol for mobile, multihop, wireless networks. The protocol is one of a family of protocols which we term “link reversal” algorithms. The...
