Experimental evaluation of wireless simulation assumptions

"... All analytical and simulation research on ad hoc wireless networks must necessarily model radio propagation using simplifying assumptions. A growing body of research, however, indicates that the behavior of the protocol stack may depend significantly on these underlying assumptions. The standard res ..."

Failure trends in a large disk drive population
- In Proceedings of the 5th USENIX Conference on File and Storage Technologies
, 2007
"... It is estimated that over 90 % of all new information produced in the world is being stored on magnetic media, most of it on hard disk drives. Despite their importance, there is relatively little published work on the failure patterns of disk drives, and the key factors that affect their lifetime. M ..."

Changing self-reported physical activity using different types of affectively and cognitively framed health messages, in a student population

The present research focused upon the power of different messages to increase selfreported physical activity. 596 participants were randomised to one of five conditions that varied in the content of message: short-term affective, short-term cognitive, longterm affective, long-term cognitive and a n ..."
