Frontline Workers and Civic Tech: Bridging the Responsiveness Gap in Digital Client Encounters
Public Administration Review, EarlyView.ABSTRACT As governments increasingly digitalize client encounters, there are growing concerns that standardized platforms may reduce bureaucratic responsiveness, particularly for historically underserved communities. We examine whether frontline workers help close that gap through their use of civic‐tech platforms.

Task Offloading in Heterogeneous Mobile Cloud Computing: Modeling, Analysis, and Cloudlet Deployment
IEEE Access, 2018 In this paper, we consider a heterogeneous mobile cloud computing (HMCC) system that consists of remote cloud servers, local cloudlets, task offloading mobile devices (TMDs), non-task offloading MDs (NTMDs), and radio access networks such as cellular ...

The Canadian Journal of Chemical Engineering, Volume 104, Issue 2, Page 935-952, February 2026.Abstract Remaining useful life (RUL) analysis of equipment prevents failures and assists in maintenance to address impending failures. To achieve this, the advancement of degradation can be measured through a determinant variable. This work presents a new methodology for estimating the number of remaining cycles (NRC), or RUL, of equipment in cyclic ...
