Transmission Delay of Multi-hop Heterogeneous Networks for Medical Applications
Nowadays, with increase in ageing population, Health care market keeps
growing. There is a need for monitoring of Health issues. Body Area Network
consists of wireless sensors attached on or inside human body for monitoring
vital Health related problems e.g, Electro Cardiogram (ECG),
ElectroEncephalogram (EEG), ElectronyStagmography(ENG) etc. Data is recorded by
sensors and is sent towards Health care center. Due to life threatening
situations, timely sending of data is essential. For data to reach Health care
center, there must be a proper way of sending data through reliable connection
and with minimum delay. In this paper transmission delay of different paths,
through which data is sent from sensor to Health care center over heterogeneous
multi-hop wireless channel is analyzed. Data of medical related diseases is
sent through three different paths. In all three paths, data from sensors first
reaches ZigBee, which is the common link in all three paths. After ZigBee there
are three available networks, through which data is sent. Wireless Local Area
Network (WLAN), Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access (WiMAX),
Universal Mobile Telecommunication System (UMTS) are connected with ZigBee.
Each network (WLAN, WiMAX, UMTS) is setup according to environmental
conditions, suitability of device and availability of structure for that
device. Data from these networks is sent to IP-Cloud, which is further
connected to Health care center. Main aim of this paper is to calculate delay
of each link in each path over multihop wireless channel.Comment: BioSPAN with 7th IEEE International Conference on Broadband and

Simulation Analysis of Medium Access Techniques
This paper presents comparison of Access Techniques used in Medium Access
Control (MAC) protocol for Wireless Body Area Networks (WBANs). Comparison is
performed between Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA), Frequency Division
Multiple Access (FDMA), Carrier Sense Multiple Access with Collision Avoidance
(CSMA/CA), Pure ALOHA and Slotted ALOHA (S-ALOHA). Performance metrics used for
comparison are throughput (T), delay (D) and offered load (G). The main goal
for comparison is to show which technique gives highest Throughput and lowest
Delay with increase in Load. Energy efficiency is major issue in WBAN that is
why there is need to know which technique performs best for energy conservation
and also gives minimum delay.Comment: NGWMN with 7th IEEE International Conference on Broadband and

Brane Realizations of Quantum Hall Solitons and Kac-Moody Lie Algebras
Using quiver gauge theories in (1+2)-dimensions, we give brane realizations
of a class of Quantum Hall Solitons (QHS) embedded in Type IIA superstring on
the ALE spaces with exotic singularities. These systems are obtained by
considering two sets of wrapped D4-branes on 2-spheres. The space-time on which
the QHS live is identified with the world-volume of D4-branes wrapped on a
collection of intersecting 2-spheres arranged as extended Dynkin diagrams of
Kac-Moody Lie algebras. The magnetic source is given by an extra orthogonal
D4-brane wrapping a generic 2-cycle in the ALE spaces. It is shown as well that
data on the representations of Kac-Moody Lie algebras fix the filling factor of
the QHS. In case of finite Dynkin diagrams, we recover results on QHS with
integer and fractional filling factors known in the literature. In case of
hyperbolic bilayer models, we obtain amongst others filling factors describing
holes in the graphene.Comment: Lqtex; 15 page
Review on composite cation exchanger as interdicipilinary materials in analytical chemistry
Green chemistry and technology is the design of chemical manufacturing systems to minimize their adverse affects on the environment. Thus, a primary goal of green chemistry and technology is to reduce the environmental impact of chemical processes and chemical manufacturing while simultaneously enhancing the overall process performance. Although it is beneficial to simply reduce the use of organic solvents in chemical processes, green chemistry and technology goes further, in that it evaluates the entire thing to identify techniques that can be applied to minimize the overall process hazard, while maintaining economic practicality. Evaluation of the environmental impacts of the manufacturing process requires a systematic approach and appropriate metrics that permit quantitative assessment of environmental hazards. Thus, this review begins with a introduction of cation-exchange materials the drivers for green technology and the metrics through which processes can be started. Then, the cation-exchange materials have so many applications described in this review and their many derivative and we describes inorganic to nanocomposite cation exchange materials and their technological improvement from old era to latest age of nano because green chemistry can be applied to real processes. Two elements are specifically highlighted: (a) the use of new materials to facilitate active and selective chemistry and the use of said materials within removal of environment hazardous
Relativistic Quantum Games in Noninertial Frames
We study the influence of Unruh effect on quantum non-zero sum games. In
particular, we investigate the quantum Prisoners' Dilemma both for entangled
and unentangled initial states and show that the acceleration of the
noninertial frames disturbs the symmetry of the game. It is shown that for
maximally entangled initial state, the classical strategy C (cooperation)
becomes the dominant strategy. Our investigation shows that any quantum
strategy does no better for any player against the classical strategies. The
miracle move of Eisert et al (1999 Phys. Rev. Lett. 83 3077) is no more a
superior move. We show that the dilemma like situation is resolved in favor of
one player or the other.Comment: 8 Pages, 2 figures, 2 table
