Poster abstract: Smart-HOP: a reliable handoff procedure for supporting mobility in wireless sensor networks

This poster abstract presents smart-HOP, a reliable handoff mechanism for mobility support in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). This technique relies on a fuzzy logic approach applied at two levels: the link quality estimation level and the access point selection level. We present the conceptual design of smart-HOP and then we discuss implementation requirements and challenges.

Poster: EMMON: a WSN system architecture and toolset for large-scale and dense real-time embedded monitoring

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) have attracted growing interest in the last decade as an infrastructure to support a diversity of ubiquitous computing and cyber-physical systems. However, most research work has focused on protocols or on specific applications. As a result, there remains a clear lack of effective and usable WSN system architectures that address both functional and non-functional requirements in an integrated fashion. This poster outlines the EMMON system architecture for large-scale, dense, real-time embedded monitoring. It provides a hierarchical communication architecture together with integrated middleware and command and control software. It has been designed to maintain as much as flexibility as possible while meeting specific applications requirements. EMMON has been validated through extensive analytical, simulation and experimental evaluations, including through a 300+ nodes test-bed the largest single-site WSN test-bed in Europe.

JSON on Mobile: is there an efficient parser?

The two largest causes for battery consumption on mobile devices are related with the display and network operations. Since most application need to share data and communicate with remote servers, communications should be as lightweight and efficient as possible. In network communication, serialization plays a central role as the process of converting an object into a stream of bytes. One of the most popular data-interchange format is JSON (JavaScript Object Notation). This paper presents a survey on JSON parsers in mobile scenarios. The aim of the survey is to find the most efficient JSON parser in mobile communications characterised by high transfer rate of small amounts of data. In the performance benchmark we compare the time required to read and write data with several popular JSON parser implementations such as Gson, Jackson, org.json and others. The results of this survey are important for others that need to select an efficient parser for mobile communication.

Leptolejeunea e Rhaphidolejeunea (Lejeuneaceae) na estação científica Ferreira Penna, Pará, Brasil

Em um inventário da família Lejeuneaceae (Hepaticae) na Estação Científica Ferreira Penna, município de Melgaço, Pará, foi observada a ocorrência de Leptolejeunea elliptica (Lehm. & Lindenb.) Schiffn., Leptolejeunea tridentata Bischler e Rhaphidolejeunea polyrhiza (Nees) Bischler. Leptolejeunea tridentata é uma nova ocorrência para o Brasil. Todas as espécies são descritas e ilustradas, com comentários adicionais. Uma chave artificial para a separação das mesmas é apresentada.

Sunbeds campaign poster

The Sunbeds campaign communicates the long term health effects of sunbeds, including skin cancer and pre-mature ageing, to sunbed users and the wider public. Particularly those under the age of 35 who are at an increased risk of developing melanoma skin cancer from sunbed use. For moreinformation on this issuevisit www.careinthesun.orgThe sunbeds campaign poster highlights that using a sunbed before the age of 35 increases your risk of skin cancer by up to 75%.

Quit Kit Poster

The Quit Kit promotional materials were developed as part of the smoking cessation campaign which highlights the range of support available and reinforces the message that quitting is achievable with the right support and motivation. Support highlighted in this part of the campaign includes the smoking support services, GP/pharmacy support, helpline, web site www.want2stop.info and a quit kit. �The Quit Kit poster directs individuals to the smokers helpline 0808 812 8008 and www.want2stop.info to register for free Quit Kit
