Nanotechnology in concrete – A review

Constructing distributed systems in Conic

The Conic environment provides a language-based approach to the building of distributed systems which combines the simplicity and safety of a language approach with the flexibility and accessibility of an operating systems approach. It prov...

Design and Practice of Green and Low-Carbon Urban Rail Transit Planning

[Objective] To achieve cost efficiency and low-carbon transformation in rail transit, the planning, design, and implementation of green and low-carbon urban rail transit systems is investigated. [Method] Aiming at life-cycle sustainable dev...

Optimistic recovery in distributed systems

Optimistic Recovery is a new technique supporting application-independent transparent recovery from processor failures in distributed systems. In optimistic recovery communication, computation and checkpointing proceed asynchronously. Synch...

Effect of the Double-Line Spiral Tunnel Curvature on the Tunnel Construction Stability

In the construction of mountain highway, in order to avoid complicated geology and adapt to the requirements of the terrain of the large height difference and the large slope, the double-line spiral tunnels are gradually applied. The purpos...

Encyclopedia of software engineering

Software engineering requires specialized knowledge of a broad spectrum of topics, including the construction of software; the platforms, applications and environments in which the software operates; as well as an understanding of the peopl...

Effects of industrialization on Tanzania’s economic growth: a case of manufacturing sector

Abstract This article examines the impact of industrialization on economic growth in Tanzania focusing on the drivers of structural changes in the manufacturing sector. We apply the vector error correction model based on a parsimonious mode...

A risk evaluation model for channel navigation based on the gray-fuzzy theory

Abstract In view of the fuzziness and randomness of the safety evaluation of the channel navigation environment, a risk evaluation model of the channel navigation is established with the set-valued statistics and the gray theory. A safety e...

Variation Characteristics of Annual Baseflow at Different Frequencies in Upper Yangtze River Using a Digital Filtering Method

[Objective] Addressing critical gaps in understanding the Upper Yangtze River Basin (UYRB) baseflow dynamics is essential for regional water security and ecological sustainability. This study presents the first comprehensive multi-station a...

A Novel Slow-Growing Gross Error Detection Method for GNSS/Accelerometer Integrated Deformation Monitoring Based on State Domain Consistency Theory

The accuracy and integrity of structural deformation monitoring can be improved by the GNSS/accelerometer integrated system, and gross error detection is the key to further improving the reliability of GNSS/accelerometer monitoring. Traditi...

A Bloom filter-based dynamic symmetric searchable encryption scheme over cloud data

Abstract In this paper, a searchable encryption scheme for cloud data is proposed to address the limitations of existing schemes, which suffer from inefficient index construction and search process, as well as a lack of support for dynamic ...

Automated monitoring innovations for efficient and safe construction practices

As construction projects increase in complexity, there are growing challenges with conventional monitoring methods in terms of efficiency, safety, and competitiveness. Traditional supervision techniques are labour-intensive, intermittent, a...

Nieuwe perspectieven in onrustige tijden

Het is niet nodig om in dit voorwoord te vermelden dat de wereld sterk in beweging is. Als MAB-lezer heeft u genoeg informatiebronnen tot uw beschikking, en uiteraard uw eigen observaties, die de enorme veranderlijkheid en soms schokkende a...

Integration and collaboration in public health—a conceptual framework

With the increasing differentiation of organisations involved in the pursuit of public health, there is also a growing need for inter-organisational integration. Starting from the concepts of differentiation and integration, this article is...

Canopies at public transport stops in Belgrade: An example of open public micro-spaces in the city

Micro-spaces - small-scale public city spaces - represent an important element in the structure of the city, both functionally and aesthetically. Due to their small scale, their importance is often overlooked by experts and investors. The p...

Does ESG Disclosure Help Improve Intangible Capital? Evidence From A-Share Listed Companies

With the disclosure of ESG, the investment related to ESG disclosure has increased, and the trend of changes in intangible capital has shown an “inverted S-shaped” curve. The research shows that, in the initial stage of investment in ESG co...
