Cloud computing enables resource-constrained clients to outsource their computation-intensive data storage and computation tasks to a cloud server.Although it creates many ROOT LIFTER benefits, data outsourcing causes some security challenges for clients.In this paper, we propose the secure and efficient query (SecNN) scheme to address the secure n
Recent studies indicate that defective activity of complement factor H (FH) is associated with several human diseases, suggesting that pure FH may be used for therapy.Here, we describe a simple method to isolate human FH, based on the specific interaction between FH and the hypervariable region (HVR) of certain Streptococcus pyogenes M proteins.Spe
In this paper, the chaotic bat algorithm (CBA) is applied to solve the optimal reactive power dispatch (ORPD) problem taking into account small-scale, medium-scale and large-scale power systems.ORPD plays a key role in the power system operation and control.The ORPD problem is formulated as a mixed integer nonlinear programming problem, comprising
This paper highlights the importance of books as dynamic actors within the Republic of Letters by means of multi-layered visualizations of epistolary networks.In the past decade, it has become increasingly common to make use of networks to study shifts in early modern scholarly exchange.Originally, almost all of these studies employed a single-laye
