This paper covers a wide scope, focusing on some trends in East and Southeast Asia that may be of interest to Latin America.The first demographic transition has essentially been completed in both regions.The issue is what should now be the focus of our consideration of population and development? East Asian countries are now stressing issues of ult
Size Measurement of Laser-Induced Damage in Large-Aperture Final Optics
In this paper, a hierarchical kernel extreme learning machine (HK-ELM) is proposed to solve the problem that the size of laser-induced damage BONE BASICS (LID) cannot be accurately measured under the condition of inhomogeneous total internal reflection illumination.The proposed method overcomes the limitations of the radiometric method, which depen
High-Speed Concurrent Transmission Scheme for Full Duplex Multi-Hop Relay Assisted mmWave WPAN Networks
In this paper, we aim to boost the spacial utilization for the millimeter Soft Top Socks wave (mmWave) based wireless personal area network (WPAN) by developing a high-speed concurrent transmission (HSCT) scheme using full-duplexed multi-hop relay.We approach this task by two phases, i.e., the routing-path developing and multi-flow scheduling phase
Efficient Contact Tracing for pandemics using blockchain
Blockchain technologies have been benefiting many industries by being decentralized, secure and confidential.They offer great potential in pandemic impacted scenarios as well.Contact tracing helps to mitigate the transmission of disease by alerting people who may have been exposed so they can act on time to protect themselves.Contact tracing system
