McDonaldization without a McDonald's: globalization and food culture as social determinants of health in urban Bangladesh
(© Association for the Study of Food and Society 2013, 2013)
Bangladesh is one of the few developing countries where there is no McDonald's and yet the process of “McDonaldization” is in full progress. This paper explores the food consumption practices of a group of affluent ...
Anisotropic charged stellar models in Generalized Tolman IV spacetime
(© 2015, Società Italiana di Fisica and Springer-Verlag Berlin Heidelberg, 2015)
With the presence of electric charge and pressure anisotropy some anisotropic stellar models have been developed. An algorithm recently presented by Herrera et al. (Phys. Rev. D 77, 027502 (2008)) to generate static ...
Efficient consensus algorithm for the accurate faulty node tracking with faster convergence rate in a distributed sensor network
(© 2016 Springer Netherlands, 2016)
One of the challenging issues in a distributed computing system is to reach on a decision with the presence of so many faulty nodes. These faulty nodes may update the wrong information, provide misleading results and may ...

An excavation tele-robotic system is developed to excavate and collect lunar regolith. The excavator has been developed by the team BRACU ChondroBot consisting students from BRAC University for NASA's 2nd Annual Lunabotics ...
Impact of background utilization and background traffic on the foreground applications in a wide area network
(© 2012 Springer Science+Business Medi, 2012)
In the real scenarios, network utilization widely depends on the background traffic and the number of active users. This paper presents the effect of background traffic on the QoS of foreground traffic by varying the ...
