Accurate knowledge of mean link lifetime and the residual lifetime of existing links will aid the design of reliability based routing protocols to improve the routing performance, and to achieve the desired network performance.
The low price of natural gas, a competing fuel, makes the economic lifetime of existing reactors uncertain.
In this contribution newly developed software tools and the results of some executed simulations of the total lifetime on existing structures will be presented.
The deployed system will increase battlefield persistence by greatly extending the lifetime of existing sensors while reducing risk of harm to the warfighter.
We provide performance metrics to analyze the performance of our approach and the simulation results show that our approach clearly improves the network lifetime over existing algorithms.
If fully implemented, the Trump agenda is anticipated to extend the lifetime of existing coal-fired generation capacity in various parts of the country by a number of years, at a minimum [36, 37].
To increase the operational lifetime of existing underground pipelines without laborious and costly excavation, replacement, and embankment, in situ pipeline lining technology has received significant interest over the past three decades.
Since sensors are usually powered by energy-limited batteries, in order to prolong the network lifetime, most existing research focuses on constructing a load-balanced routing tree rooted at the base station for data gathering.
Payment based on seniority and lifetime employment has become far too expensive.At the same time, because Matsushita is bound by its promises of lifetime employment to existing staff, it cannot sack them.
"If we do nothing, defined benefit schemes will all be shut down," Mr Webb told The Independent before outlining a range of proposals that he intends to push through during the lifetime of the existing Parliament.
