Young Indonesian LGBT people are currently mobilising against a wave of conservatism and violence in an increasingly anti-LGBT context. showing remarkable courage strategic thinking range ways. These include grassroot peer support, advocacy, partnerships with government, adult-led non-government organisations the private sector. However, these youth also face multiple challenges. This article highlights findings from 2016 study mobilisation by activists, using in-depth feminist qualitative...

Although the Dublin principles of Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) are well-established, third principle on gender is commonly missing in practice. We use mainstreaming to identify examples where gender-specific perspectives might influence water resource management modelling choices. show how considerations could lead different choices all phases, providing from three familiar components practice: (a) problem framing and conceptualisation, (b) model construction, documentation...

In this letter, we analyze the outage probability (OP) of orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA) based downlink (DL) for femtocells under co-channel deployment in hierarchical 3-sector macrocells. We first derive a closed-form expression femto DL OP, and then devise distributed scheme to control their transmit power according users' locations within macrocell network. Numerical simulation results show that femtocell exclusion region (FER) around macro base station (MBS)...

While migration debates point to both empowerment and disempowerment in the range of choices that women can experience due patriarchal norms home country families, themselves at same time be disempowering. This paper explores idea precarity as a way through this paradox. By using Key Informant Interviews case studies from Nepal Bangladesh, we show how change not only origin host but also events such COVID-19 have profound effect on women's agency.

In this paper, the issue of multi-user radio resource scheduling on downlink a Long Term Evolution (LTE) cellular communication system is addressed. An optimization model has been proposed in [1], where resources for multiple users are jointly allocated at air-interface. It shown that an optimal solution to such problem may provide reasonable gain over simply greedy approach. However, complexity approach could be prohibitively high. By exploiting meta-heuristic method as Simulated Annealing...

Small cells are becoming essential to offer a promising solution for dramatic mobile traffic growth in future networks. Especially, massive enterprise femtocells expected provide high capacity fulfill data demands buildings order offload indoor from outdoor macro that over 80% of is generated indoors. However, as one the major challenges, inter-femtocell interference gets worse 3D in-building scenarios because presence numerous interfering sources and needs be considered early network...

magnesium is important for the proper functioning of various metabolic pathways and ion channels so disturbances in concentration can cause clinical problems.Hypomagnesaemia has many renal extra-renal causes whereas hypermagnesaemia usually due to insufficiency.magnesium should be monitored conditions such as arrythmia when other electrolytes are abnormal.

Femtocells have been considered by the wireless industry as a promising solution not only to improve indoor coverage, but also unload traffic from already overburdened macrocells. In spite of potentially excessive interference caused densely deployed femtocells, macrocells may share same spectrum with due availability and network infrastructure considerations. this paper, we derive closed-form expressions for downlink outage probabilities (OP) collocated spectrum-sharing macrocell based on...

Millions of short-term, low-skilled women migrant workers from South-Asia to West-Asia experience exploitative and unsafe conditions. We review evidence literature interview 18 key informants assess the exploitation face, highlight impacts past interventions determine their potential, realised effectiveness, in reducing forced labour trafficking. find that face varied precarious situations along migration pathway, including interactions with recruiters home country, incurring debt,...

Much work is underway within the broad next generation technologies community on issues associated with development of services to foster collaboration via integration distributed and heterogeneous data systems technologies. In previous works, we have discussed how these could help coin prompt future direction their usage (integration) in various real-world scenarios such as disaster management. This paper builds upon our works addresses use learning agents called birds modelling process...

The publication of a controversial article in Third World Quarterly and the consequent unveiling critical questioning journal practices continue to engender strong negative feelings for many scholars. At juncture within process this collection, we faced an ethical dilemma regarding how maintain political commitments while manoeuvring sometimes hostile academic environment. Here examine its resolutions reflect on configurations power academia. Through lenses (dis)comfort, judgement...

It has been predicted that the total mobile traffic in world will have a ten-fold growth from 2011 to 2016. Moreover, it is estimated over 80% of generated indoors. Massive indoor femtocells are expected be set up for offloading users outdoor macrocells and provide huge capacity meet high data demands. However, inter-cell interference between one major challenges deployments needs addressed network planning phase. In this paper, mitigation schemes dense deployment investigated, cooperative...

Abstract This paper looks at the migration of women from Bangladesh to Middle East as short‐term migrants, mainly for work in domestic care sector workers, housekeepers, nannies, cooks, etc. group accounts about 15 per cent total cohort. They face particular challenges around not only precarity their employment but also navigating a series patriarchal norms both and destination countries East. The will build on Deniz Kandiyoti her seminal bargains. explore migrating East: decision migrate,...

This article explores precarity in short-term women’s migration using the case study of Nepal. Women migrate from Nepal for contract work mostly domestic care sector. research has used both focus group discussions and key informant interviews with returned prospective migrants, as well NGO staff others supporting migration. A picture to Middle East emerged, motivation being complex, while it is primarily financial some an economic necessity, there are also broader implications, argument that...

In co-channel deployments of macro and femto cells, the much higher transmit power a macrocell base station (MBS) than that femtocell access point (FAP) may create exclusion region (FER) around an MBS, where reliable downlink (DL) services cannot be guaranteed. this paper, we analyze DL outage probability (OP) orthogonal frequency division multiple (OFDMA) based femtocells in terms their locations with respect to nearby 3-sector MBSs, derive expression FER radius as function azimuth angle...

This paper examines the challenges of working on gender equality in international development research projects and institutes, how a code appropriate emotions behaviours is used to silence stifle institutional change. Using my own experience at science institute, I argue that while senior leaders have acknowledged importance equity diversity, internal dynamics, workplace culture hierarchies make change difficult. Furthermore, due nature work, there an affective norm ('doing good feeling...
