Utilization of Nigerian precious Resource in the Niger Delta Region for the benefit of the Ecosystem

by Okotie Sylvester, Ikporo Bibobra
"... This paper tried to provide a means of utilizing the gas flared from oil and gas field in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria domestically for the benefit of the nation. It also assess empirically the economic cost of gas flared in Nigeria from 1965 to 2008 to see the feasibility of utilizing our prec ..."

Maté: A Tiny Virtual Machine for Sensor Networks

by Philip Levis, David Culler , 2002
"... Composed of tens of thousands of tiny devices with very limited resources ("motes"), sensor networks are subject to novel systems problems and constraints. The large number of motes in a sensor network means that there will often be some failing nodes; networks must be easy to repopu-late. ..."
Abstract - Cited by 510 (21 self) - Add to MetaCart
-late. Often there is no feasible method to recharge motes, so energy is a precious resource. Once deployed, a network must be reprogrammable although physically unreachable, and this reprogramming can be a significant energy cost. We present Maté, a tiny communication-centric virtual machine designed

Seven principles for good practice in undergraduate education

by W. Chickering, Zelda F. Gamson , 1987
"... Apathetic students, illiterate graduates, incompetent teaching, impersonal campuses-- so rolls the drumfire of criticism of higher education. More than two years of reports have spelled out the problems. States have been quick to respond by holding out carrots and beating with sticks. There are neit ..."
Abstract - Cited by 799 (0 self) - Add to MetaCart
. There are neither enough carrots nor enough sticks to improve undergraduate education without the commitment and action of students and faculty members. They are the precious resources on whom the improvement of undergraduate education depends. But how can students and faculty members improve undergraduate

Cognitive Radio: Brain-Empowered Wireless Communications

by Simon Haykin , 2005
"... Cognitive radio is viewed as a novel approach for improving the utilization of a precious natural resource: the radio electromagnetic spectrum. The cognitive radio, built on a software-defined radio, is defined as an intelligent wireless communication system that is aware of its environment and use ..."

Greening of the Internet

by Maruti Gupta, Suresh Singh - In ACM SIGCOMM , 2003
"... In this paper we examine the somewhat controversial subject of energy consumption of networking devices in the Internet, motivated by data collected by the U.S. Department of Commerce. We discuss the impact on network protocols of saving energy by putting network interfaces and other router & sw ..."

results but rather suggest interesting directions for core networking research. The impact of saving energy is huge, particularly in the developing world where energy is a precious resource whose scarcity hinders widespread Internet deployment.

Every Joule is Precious: The Case for Revisiting Operating System Design for Energy Efficiency

by Amin Vahdat, Alvin Lebeck, Carla Schlatter Ellis , 2000
"... this paper, we propose the systematic re-examination of all aspects of operating system design and implementation from the point of view of energy efficiency rather than the more traditional OS metric of maximizing performance. In [7], we made the case for energy as a first-class OS-managed resource ..."
Abstract - Cited by 93 (8 self) - Add to MetaCart
-managed resource. We emphasized the benefits of higher-level control over energy usage policy and the application/OS interactions required to achieve them. This paper explores the implications that this major shift in focus can have upon the services, policies, mechanisms, and internal structure of the OS itself
