Multinet : enabler for next generation enterprise wireless services
No full textWireless communications are currently experiencing a fast migration toward the beyond third-generation (B3G)/fourth generation (4G) era. This represents a generational change in wireless systems: new capabilities related to mobility and new services support is required and new concepts as individual-centric, user-centric or ambient-aware communications are included. One of the main restrictions associated to wireless technology is mobility management, this feature was not considered in the design phase; for this reason, a complete solution is not already found, although different solutions are proposed and are being proposed. In MULTINET project, features as mobility and multihoming are applied to wireless network to provide the necessary network and application functionality enhancements for seamless data communication mobility considering end-user scenario and preferences. The aim of this paper is to show the benefits of these functionalities from the Service Providers and final User point of view
Epilogo
No full textL'epilogo sintetizza le idee principali del volume incentrate sulle competenze strategiche e metodologiche del traduttore. Viene discusso brevemente come il traduttore sfrutti le proprie conoscenze non solo per scegliere il miglior modus operandi possibile, ma anche per risolvere alcune problematiche specifiche che il testo specializzato presenta. Nelle competenze strategiche sono comprese anche quelle di pianificazione del lavoro relative alla documentazione e alla verifica dell'affidabilità delle risorse informatiche di supporto. Le competenze di metodo comportano piuttosto un buon talento redazionale che si fonda sull'esplorazione di testi-modello filtrati statisticamente dal punto di vista terminologico. Esistono tuttavia situazioni in cui il traduttore non trae vantaggio dall'uso di corpus di riferimento ragionati: il contesto ha ripercussioni determinanti sulla resa, mentre la stilistica dell’autore domina in maniera più o meno considerevole la scelta della fraseologia del testo d'arrivo

The male of <i>Odontochrydium arabicum</i> <b>sp. nov.</b> is similar to the male of the African species <i>O. bicristatum</i> (paratype, Fig. 5A–F) by having mesoscutal median area reticulate-foveate, with two stout longitudinal ridges and T1–T3 sparsely largely punctate; it differs from the latter by: body generally metallic dark blue, sometimes with a little violet tint on T3 and on bottom of punctures (Figs 1, 3D), <i>vs</i>. metallic green in <i>O. bicristatum</i>, with a little bluish tint on mesoscutum, sometimes being rosy to golden red on the head, pronotum and metasomal tergites in prepared specimens (Fig. 5A–E), likely golden or red in nature; clypeus short, with subantennal distance 1.6 × AOD (Fig. 2A), <i>vs.</i> longitudinally elongate, with subantennal distance 2.0 × AOD (Fig. 5C); pronotum with large, deep and dense punctures (Fig. 2C), <i>vs.</i> pronotum with sparser and smaller punctures, not distinctly deep (Fig. 5B); mesoscutellum with sparse, large and round punctures, with wide interspaces bearing small dots (Fig. 2E), <i>vs.</i> mesoscutellum with dense, polygonal punctures without interspaces (Fig. 5B); metanotum with similar punctation, with large, round and deep punctures (Fig. 2D, E), <i>vs.</i> metanotum with dense, not particularly deepened polygonal punctures (Fig. 5B); propodeal lateral tooth obtuse apically (Fig. 2D), <i>vs</i>. sharp apically (Fig. 5B); T3 without longitudinal median ridge (Fig. 3C), <i>vs.</i> T3 with micropunctate longitudinal median ridge (Fig. 5D); apico-median tooth of T3 longer than lateral ones (Fig. 3C), <i>vs.</i> hardly longer than lateral teeth (Fig. 5D); S2 with longer and denser pubescence (Fig. 3D), <i>vs.</i> S2 with shorter and sparse setae (Fig. 5E); gonostyle hardly shorter than cuspis of volsella (Fig. 3E, F), <i>vs.</i> longer than cuspis of volsella in <i>O. bicristatum</i> (Fig. 5F).</p> <p> <b>Remarks</b>. Due to a fracture at the inner side of the genital gonocoxae of the holotype male genitalia (Fig. 3E), where they meet, during the preparation for photographing, we added a figure of a complete genital capsule of a paratype (Fig. 3G) in order to clarify the normal shape of the capsule.</p> <p> <b>Etymology</b>. The new species name refers to the Arabian Peninsula, where the type specimens were collected.</p> <p> <b>Distribution.</b> Oman, Saudi Arabia and Yemen.</p>Published as part of <i>Soliman, Ahmed M., Rosa, Paolo & Al Dhafer, Hathal M., 2022, Description of a new species of Odontochrydium Brauns (Hymenoptera: Chrysididae) from the Arabian Peninsula, pp. 287-295 in Zootaxa 5100 (2)</i> on pages 288-294, DOI: 10.11646/zootaxa.5100.2.8, <a href="http://zenodo.org/record/6145902">http://zenodo.org/record/6145902</a>

No full textHow intent to interact can affect action scaling of distance: reply to Wilson
No full textabstract: Soliman et al. (2013) set out to demonstrate how the bodily level of analysis can unify explanations in psychology. Our argument was that common sensorimotor mechanisms underlie many of the behavioral phenomena that are currently segregated as cognitive, social, or cultural. Toward that end, we re-characterized a cultural construct—self-construal along the dimension of independence and interdependence (Markus and Kitayama, 1991)—as reflecting degree of interaction with ethnically diverse others.View the article as published at http://journal.frontiersin.org/article/10.3389/fpsyg.2014.00513/ful
Near east growth potential of poultry
No full textT h e r e is considerable evidences f or increasing the number of eggs and poultry projects in the near east countries during the next 20 years.
A development program f o r 1 8 Near East countries has been drawn up by H. F. El-Issawi and I. Soliman which aims at raising average annual per caput consumption from current 4.4kg of poultry-meat and 56 table-eggs to 12.8kg and 128 eggs by the year 2000. Three regional projects are proposed to support the overall development program, which, being responsible for supplying feed ingredients and mix, breeding stock and equipment' to their specific regions.
