Japanese Women's Attitudes Toward Learning Languages Other Than English in the Era of Global English

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study on female Japanese learners of the Korean language is situated in the centuries‐long anti‐Korean sentiments in Japan, the global popularity of the Korean Wave, particularly among women, and the essentialized image of socially marginalized young Japanese women who study English with romantic desires for Western men.

Modeling and Topological Properties of a V2I Sub Network in VANET Based on a Complex Network

Cybernetics and Information Technologies, 2015
Vehicles to Infrastructure (V2I) communicate with each other in a Vehicular Ad hoc NETwork (VANET) that can be represented as a complex network. In them much interest has been attracted towards the topological properties and structure recently, and many ...

Measuring Interactional Competence in a Japanese University EFL Speaking Context

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The ability to interact is an integral aspect of speaking proficiency. Therefore, methods of assessing interaction need to be incorporated into second language (L2) speaking tests. The main purpose of this exploratory study is to attempt to quantify interactional competence (IC) in a Japanese university EFL (English as a foreign language ...

Changed Minds and L2 Motivation: Reflections of Japanese EFL Students Living, Laboring and Learning in Vietnam

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT English as a lingua franca (ELF) is increasingly used for communication in many EFL contexts, including Vietnam. Although Japan and Vietnam have a long history of economic cooperation, for practical reasons, English typically functions as the medium of communication between the two groups. This study examines Japanese expats who had studied or

Contention-Based Opportunistic Spectrum Access in One-Way Highway Vehicular Networks

IEEE Access, 2019
The spectrum sharing problem is considered under the scenario of a one-way highway vehicular network. We model the locations of the vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) nodes, the vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) nodes, and the road side units (RSUs) as 1D Poisson ...

An Efficient Cluster Based Resource Management Scheme and its Performance Analysis for V2X Networks

IEEE Access, 2020
As the demand for VANETs data transmission continues to increase, the defined cellular band becomes a bottleneck to meet the demands for all vehicle-to-everything (V2X) users.

Entangled Discourses and Realities of English: Japanese Undergraduates’ Everyday Online and Offline Language Experiences

International Journal of Applied Linguistics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Focusing on the narratives of two Japanese undergraduate students, this article examines their everyday experiences of using and learning English, situated within entangled relations of power. Drawing on the Foucauldian notion of discourse, the study reveals how multiple power/knowledge systems—such as native speakerism, prescriptivism ...

Securing V2I Backscattering from Eavesdropper

ICC 2024 - IEEE International Conference on Communications
As our cities become more intelligent and more connected with new technologies like 6G, improving communication between vehicles and infrastructure is essential while reducing energy consumption. This study proposes a secure framework for vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) backscattering near an eavesdropping vehicle to maximize the sum secrecy rate of ...
