The physical demands on US service members have increased significantly over the past
several decades as the number of military operations requiring overseas deployment have …

Energy‐efficient data collection is a significant research challenge in wireless sensor networks
(WSNs). One of the essential approaches to improve WSN performance is clustering, …

The obesity epidemic in the United States has been well documented and serves as the basis
for a number of health interventions across the nation. However, those who have served in …

This is an intermediate-level textbook on probability and mathematical statistics. This book
can be used for one-semester graduate courses in engineering statistics. Prerequisites …

Efficient clustering and routing is a main challenge in a wireless sensor network (WSN). To
achieve better quality-of-service (QoS) performance, this work introduces k-medoids with …

Today’s critical goals in sensor network research are extending the lifetime of wireless sensor
networks (WSNs) and lowering power consumption. A WSN necessitates the use of energy…

Among probability distributions that are used to describe a chance mechanism whose
observational apparatus becomes active only when at least one event occurs is the zero-truncated …

Wireless sensor network (WSN) sensor nodes should have adequate energy. Reduced
energy usage is essential to maximize the endurance of WSNs. Combining WSN with a more …

Data envelopment analysis (DEA), a popular linear programming technique is useful to rate
comparatively operational efficiency of decision making units (DMU) based on their …

Background Electronic health records (EHRs) are a central feature of care delivery in acute
care hospitals; however, the financial and quality outcomes associated with system …
