A Dual Band Belt Antenna
This paper presents an antenna structure design using a standard belt for wearable applications. The antenna arouse from a body of research work on wearable metallic structures functioning as antennas for wireless on-body networks
Interactive mixture of inhomogeneous dark fluids driven by dark energy: a dynamical systems analysis
We examine the evolution of an inhomogeneous mixture of non-relativistic
pressureless cold dark matter (CDM), coupled to dark energy (DE) characterised
by the equation of state parameter , with the interaction term
proportional to the DE density. This coupled mixture is the source of a
spherically symmetric Lema\^\ itre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) metric admitting an
asymptotic Friedman-Lema\^\ itre-Robertson-Walker (FLRW) background. Einstein's
equations reduce to a 5-dimensional autonomous dynamical system involving
quasi--local variables related to suitable averages of covariant scalars and
their fluctuations. The phase space evolution around the critical points
(past/future attractors and five saddles) is examined in detail. For all
parameter values and both directions of energy flow (CDM to DE and DE to CDM)
the phase space trajectories are compatible with a physically plausible early
cosmic times behaviour near the past attractor. This result compares favourably
with mixtures with the interaction driven by the CDM density in which
conditions for a physically plausible past evolution are more restrictive.
Numerical examples are provided describing the evolution of an initial profile
that can be associated with idealised structure formation scenariosComment: 23 pages, IOP format, 8 figure
Estimating development effort in free/open source software projects by mining software repositories: A case study of OpenStack
Because of the distributed and collaborative nature of free/open source software (FOSS) projects, the development effort invested in a project is usually unknown, even after the software has been released. However, this information is becoming of major interest, especially-but not only-because of the growth in the number of companies for which FOSS has become relevant for their business strategy. In this paper we present a novel approach to estimate effort by considering data from source code management repositories. We apply our model to the OpenStack project, a FOSS project with more than 1,000 authors, in which several tens of companies cooperate. Based on data from its repositories and together with the input from a survey answered by more than 100 developers, we show that the model offers a simple, but sound way of obtaining software development estimations with bounded margins of error.Gregorio Robles, Carlos Cervig on and Jes us M.
