Energy Efficiency and Superlative TTT for Equitable RLF and Ping Pong in LTE Networks

Data hungry users engage radio resources over long periods of time thus resulting into higher energy consumption by Base Stations (BSs). Mobile operators’ operational expenditure (OPEX) is directly affected by augmented electricity bills due to increased power consumption, thereby ensuing reduced economic and environmental benefits, i.e. profitability of vendors and green communication accordingly. This work provides performance analysis of our proposed reduced early handover (REHO) scheme which results in increased energy efficiency. Impact of reduced energy consumption is shown on OPEX, as well as greener aspects are investigated by inclusion of real life commercial tariffs adopted by one of the mobile operators in the UK. Performance analysis revealed that varying time to trigger (TTT) values significantly impact radio link failure (RLF), ping pong effect as well as call drop ratio (CDR) and Handover ratio (HOR), at changing users’ velocities. Paper investigates and provides a very useful insight for superlative value of TTT for unbiased RLF and Ping Pong, which can help vendors not only to achieve increased energy efficiency, but also maintain other salient performance parameters within acceptable limits. The work also achieves the fact that the time difference in terms of transmission time intervals (TTIs) for reduced early handover in REHO, always remain the same irrespective of the value of TTT, thus ensuring that REHO continuously achieves increased energy efficiency compared to LTE standard.

Hacia una resignificación de la Didáctica – Ciencias de la Educación, Pedagogía y Didáctica –. Una revisión conceptual y una síntesis provisional

DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.17227/01212494.39pys117.139 Over the last two decades, the state of the conceptual discussion about Pedagogy, Didactics and Sciences of Education in countries like France and Italy has enabled the incursion on experiences of re-signification and the analytical use whose balance sheet finds various sources of processing in the Brazilian research studies. Between the critical balance and the theoretical review, the article shows new places for the teaching as a social practice of superlative value for research.

El valor de la técnica

This paper intends a reflection about technique and values, particularly about the value of the technique. First, the technique is considered as a value, a superlative value, since it allows the most valuable thing for our species, its own survival. Simultaneously it gives us our nature. The human nature revels itself as an artifact. Now then, the price of that technical value is also superlative, since the technical emptying of the nature makes that the species lacks natural value: there are not natural values. The values must be created. Second, the value is considered as a technique: to value is also a technical operation. The very values appear as techniques, something contingent and plural like every technical thing, and «groundless» because they don't obey to any natural reason, but to the «insufficiently » rational decision of using them. However, such an intrinsic artificiality of the values makes them to be even worthier.

A pragmatic analysis of Epitomization: Topicalization it's not∗

Abstract A type of OSV word order, Epitomization, is identified and analyzed. This type, previously unaccounted for, is distinguished on the basis of its discourse function. The left‐most (preposed) NP is a proper noun whose referent represents the epitome (superlative value) of some scalar attribute, while the referent of the subject NP is salient in the context. Use of Epitomization conveys a belief on the part of the speaker that the referent of the subject NP is negatively evaluated with respect to the referent of the left‐most NP on a scale representing the attribute in question.

My Golden Books

As I look back, I find that, for me, as for many old men, the book of greatest influence is the Book of Life; and as one who has been extraordinarily lucky in friendships I know that close contact with other minds has been of superlative value. From quite early boyhood I had friends of intellectual quality, and as I grew up I benefited from close association with such men as Arnold Bennett, H. G. Wells, A. G. Gardiner, and others, all my seniors, and all shrewd observers of history and the current scene. Nevertheless the love of books, and the constant reading of books, have partially made up for almost total lack of schooling.

The Progress of Greek Epigraphy, 1952–53

Once more, and for the last time, I attempt briefly to review the epigraphical progress of the last two years, so completing a survey which began in 1906 (YWCS 1906, 69 ff.) and has appeared in this Journal since 1913 (XXXIV 321 ff.). In view of the superlative value of the annual ‘Bulletin Epigraphique’ of J. and L. Robert and of the welcome revival of the SEG under the editorship of A. G. Woodhead, my own work may well be deemed superfluous. To the successive editors of the Journal, who have treated me with unfailing generosity, to all scholars who have lightened my burden by sending me copies of their works, and above all to those who have encouraged me by their expressions of interest and appreciation I offer my heartfelt thanks. The present bibliography follows the same lines as its predecessors; books and articles which I have not seen are marked by an asterisk.The ranks of Greek epigraphists have suffered serious losses in the deaths of F. M. Abel, J. G. C. Anderson, W. H. Buckler, R. Herzog, L. B. Holland, J. G. Milne, M. I. Rostovtzeff and A. Vogliano. Appreciations of the character and achievement of A. Wilhelm we owe to J. Keil and L. Robert, and of J. Hatzfeld to C. Picard.
