LOGISTICAL CHALLENGES AND ASSUMPTIONS FOR MODELING THE FAILURE OF GLOBAL CESSATION OF ORAL POLIOVIRUS VACCINE (OPV)

Logistical challenges and assumptions for modeling the failure of global cessation of oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV)

Introduction: The inability to successfully stop all use of oral poliovirus vaccine (OPV) as part of the polio endgame and/or the possibilities of reintroduction of live polioviruses after successful OPV cessation may imply the need to restart Baking Pans OPV production and use, either temporarily or permanently.Areas covered: Complementing prior w

Dynamic deployment algorithm for multi-controllers based on bidirectional matching in software defined networking

Aiming at the controller load imbalance problem in distributed SDN,a multi-controller dynamic deployment algorithm based on bidirectional matching was proposed.Through collecting hop counts,delay and flow information in the Architectural Art network periodically,match lists of switch and controller was built respectively.According to the principle

Comparison of the diversity of ground beetle (Coleoptera: Carabidae) assemblages in small and large temperate peat bogs

We present a study comparing assemblages of ground beetles between small and large pristine peat bogs in Central-Eastern Europe, to better understand biodiversity variability in peatland ecosystems in tundra patches in the temperate zone.We found that Shannon diversity and Pielou evenness indices and species composition for carabid assemblages of s
