Novel “fabrigami” sensor is developed to monitor joint movements in real time. This device combines an origami‐inspired fabric with self‐powered textile sensors to convert movement into electrical signals. The sensors are based on self‐powered triboelectric nanofibers and connected to a wireless microcontroller to transmit human movement data to mobile

Unraveling Corruption and State Capacity With Heterogeneous Productivity
ABSTRACT We present a model of corruption involving entrepreneurs with heterogeneous productivities. The model incorporates two types of technologies: a costly “good” technology that generates positive externalities and a “bad” technology that is cheaper to adopt but lacks externalities.

Categorizational Asymmetries in Context: Producing and Resisting Policeable Scenes
This article examines categorizational asymmetries observable in the attempted production and negotiation of a “policeable” scene. The case described in the article—an encounter between a police officer and a black male student treated as “out of place”—demonstrates how members accomplish, negotiate, and resist categorial “statuses” and associated ...

A-MPDU aggregation with optimal number of MPDUs for delay requirements in IEEE 802.11ac.
In this paper, we propose a method that estimates an average delay of frames for each queue and finds an optimal number of aggregated Medium Access Control (MAC) Protocol Data Units (MPDUs) to maximize the system throughput with satisfying the delay ...

In a priority queue different types of items (individuals or elements) arrive at a service mechanism and each item has a relative priority for order of service. Let there be $K$ classes of items, $1, 2, \cdots, K$. If the service mechanism is to select an item for service, a type $i$ item will be selected in preference to a type $j$ item for $i < j ...
