Proteome Analysis of Corynebacterium diphtheriae–Macrophage Interaction

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Contact of Corynebacterium diphtheriae with macrophages induces adaptations on both bacterial and cellular sides. The study presented here was aiming to shed light on the simultaneous intracellular adaptation of the bacteria and changes in the proteome of the phagocytes in response to the internalization of C. diphtheriae.

Performance Analysis of Dijkstra-Based Weighted Sum Minimization Routing Algorithm for Wireless Mesh Networks

open access: yesModelling and Simulation in Engineering, 2014
Multiobjective optimization methods for routing in static wireless mesh networks (WMNs), with more than one QoS measure to be optimized, are highly challenging. To optimize the performance for a given end-to-end route in a static network, the most common

A Python Algorithm for Shortest-Path River Network Distance Calculations Considering River Flow Direction

open access: yesData, 2020
Vector based shortest path analysis in geographic information system (GIS) is well established for road networks. Even though these network algorithms can be applied to river layers, they do not generally consider the direction of flow.

Experiences With a Last Meter Delivery Robot

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The steady growth of e‐commerce is a consolidated trend continuously increasing the number of parcels delivered worldwide. Conventionally, in logistics, last mile delivery has been the area of study covering the last step of a parcel delivery process: from the nearest distribution center to the customer.

Autonomous Navigation in Large‐Scale Underground Environments Based on a Purely Topological Understanding of Tunnel Networks

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This work presents a non‐geometrical navigation approach based on a purely topological understanding of underground environments. By conceptualizing subterranean scenarios as a set of tunnels that intersect with each other, and taking a navigation approach based on topological instructions, we simplify the navigation problem to the sequential ...

Vector Field‐Based Collision‐Free Navigation in Tunnel‐Like Environments

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Tunnel‐like environments, renowned for their vast scale, confined spaces, and limited visibility, present significant challenges for autonomous robot navigation. This study addresses the critical issue of guiding robots through such environments while ensuring collision‐free navigation and maintaining a specified safety margin from both tunnel

Quantifying Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance: An Early Experiment Using Network Design Tasks

open access: yesSystems Engineering, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Structural Complexity is perceived as driving cost in system development, yet managing it effectively requires empirical understanding. This study investigates human decision‐making using a toy transportation‐style network design task, focusing on how Structural Complexity, Effort, and Performance interact. Seventy‐four participants (primarily

Block scheduling in practice: An optimal decomposition strategy for nonidentical operating rooms

open access: yesDecision Sciences, EarlyView.
Abstract We develop and implement a Master Surgery Schedule for a real‐life hospital, assigning operating room (OR) time to surgical specialties over a multi‐week horizon. Through action research, we identify a critical operational challenge: the issue of split blocks. Split blocks allow two specialties to share an OR on the same day—one in the morning,
