Optimal traffic distribution and priority coefficients for telecommunication networks
Networks & Heterogeneous Media, 2006 The aim of this paper is to optimize tra±c distribution coefficients in order to maximize the trasmission speed of packets over a network. We consider a macroscopic fluidodynamic model dealing with packets flow proposed in [10], where the dynamics at nodes (routers) is decided by a routing algorithm depending on traffic distribution (and priority ...

The Howard Journal of Crime and Justice, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The cultures and governance of security markets in the United Kingdom are often characterised through a paradoxical narrative of simultaneous state retreat and progressive advance. In the face of repeated recent high‐profile security failures, and global changes in material political economy, we argue that UK security governance is adapting to

International Transactions in Operational Research, EarlyView.Abstract The application of automated ground vehicles (AGVs) is well‐established in closed environments such as port terminals, while their operation in open areas remains challenging. In this work, we set out to overcome this limitation by introducing platooning as a transfer mode in heterogeneous vehicle networks.

The Agencies of the European Union: A Glimmer of Hope for Enlargement?
JCMS: Journal of Common Market Studies, EarlyView.Abstract In recent years, the process of EU enlargement has become increasingly difficult. The longer the process drags on and the less likely accession appears, the more the candidate states are discouraged and the less influential the EU becomes. A different approach to integration must therefore be used.
