 | The handoff problem in ad hoc networks needs to be treated through an integrated multi-layer approach, due to its major differences with respect to the counterpart in infrastructure-based networks. In this paper, an integrated framework through the cross layer approach is presented to deal with the handoff problem in heterogeneous wireless networks with multiple interfaces. Further, extensive study has been conducted to evaluate our proposed handoff solution through simulation, emulation ... |

 | The Department of Defense (DoD) reports data about the operational readiness of its forces. In 1999, Congress directed DoD to create a comprehensive readiness system with timely, objective, and accurate data. In response, DoD started to develop the Defense Readiness Reporting System (DRRS). After 7 years, DoD has incrementally fielded some capabilities and, through fiscal year 2008, reported obligating about $96.5 million. GAO was asked to review the program, including ... |

 | While the pace and overall extent of reposturing in Iraq has yet to be determined, various defense commands began planning for reposturing in fall 2007, and in May 2008 DOD began coordinating these individual planning efforts to develop a logistical framework based on three key assumptions. According to DOD officials, initial planning efforts were uncoordinated because the three organizations undertaking them the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), the Army Materiel Command(AMC), ... |

 | Identifying viral isolates from field-collected mosquitoes can be difficult and time-consuming, particularly in regions of the world where numerous closely related viruses are co-circulating (e.g., the Amazon Basin region of Peru). The use of molecular techniques may provide rapid and efficient methods for identifying these viruses in the laboratory. Therefore, we determined the complete nucleotide sequence of two South American eastern equine encephalomyelitis viruses (EEEVs): one member from the Peru-Brazil ... |
