Network slicing initiatives (e.g., Cloud Network Slicing, 5G Network Slicing) are being widely studied by academia and industry as enablers for future networks like 5G and 6G, as well as verticals such as V2X, critical ...

In the last decade, telecommunications operators have adopted network slicing technology in their systems, applying a layer of virtualization over the physical infrastructure, allowing them to be sliced into different ...

Network slicing has recently been proposed as one of the main enablers for 5G networks; it is bound to cope with the increasing and heterogeneous performance requirements of these systems. To “slice” a network is to partition ...

Background: In mitral valve dysfunction, noninvasive measurement of transmitral blood flow is an important clinical examination. Flow imaging of the mitral valve, however, is challenging, since it moves in and out of the ...

A new concept that describes a federated framework that provides computing (processing), networking, and storage as a virtual slice framework, Cloud Network Slicing (CNS) enables new approaches to IoT applications and ...

Background: Slice cultures have been prepared from several organs. With respect to the brain, advantages of slice cultures over dissociated cell cultures include maintenance of the cytoarchitecture and neuronal connectivity. ...

This book presents a modular framework for slicing in the proof assistant Isabelle/HOL which is based on abstract control flow graphs. Building on such abstract structures renders the correctness results language-independent. ...

We obtain the maximum likelihood estimator of the central subspace under conditional normality of the predictors given the response. Analytically and in simulations we found that our new estimator can preform much better ...

In this investigation, the air drying characteristics of fresh and osmotically pre-treated pineapple slices in a tray dryer were studied under different operating conditions. The air velocity varied from 1.5 to 2.5 m/s and ...
