Farmers’ grain storage and losses in Ethiopia: Measures and associates

open access: yes, 2021
Storage losses at the farm are often assumed to be an important contributor to presumed large postharvest losses in developing countries. However, reliable and representative data on these losses are often lacking. We study farmers’ storage decisions and

Fine-Grained Analysis of Packet Loss in MANETs

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2017
Most existing trust-based security schemes for mobile ad-hoc networks (MANETs) consider packet loss an indicator of possible attacks by malicious nodes. There may be several reasons for packet losses, such as interference, queue overflow, and node mobility.
