Recent technological advances have greatly improved the performance and features of embedded systems. With number just mobile devices now reaching nearly equal to population Earth, systems truly become ubiquitous. These trends, however, also made task managing their power consumption extremely challenging. In recent years, several techniques been proposed address this issue. paper, we survey for We discuss need management provide a classification on important parameters highlight...

Abstract Antibiotics can trigger antimicrobial resistance and microbiome alterations. Reducing pathogen exposure undernutrition reduce infections antibiotic use. We assess effects of water, sanitation, handwashing (WSH) nutrition interventions on caregiver-reported use in Bangladesh Kenya, longitudinally measured at three timepoints among birth cohorts (ages 3–28 months) a cluster-randomized trial. Over 50% children used antibiotics least once the 90 days preceding data collection. In...

Background A number of studies have detected relationships between weather and diarrhea. Few investigated associations with specific enteric pathogens. Understanding pathogen-specific is crucial to inform public health in low-resource settings that are especially vulnerable climate change.

Water, sanitation, hygiene (WSH), nutrition (N), and combined (N+WSH) interventions are often implemented by global health organizations, but WSH may insufficiently reduce pathogen exposure, be modified environmental enteric dysfunction (EED), a condition of increased intestinal permeability inflammation. This study investigated the heterogeneity these treatments' effects based on individual EED biomarker status with respect to child linear growth. We applied cross-validated targeted maximum...

We hypothesized that drinking water, sanitation, handwashing (WSH), and nutritional interventions would improve environmental enteric dysfunction (EED), a potential contributor to stunting.Within subsample of cluster-randomized, controlled trial in rural Bangladesh, we enrolled pregnant women 4 arms: control, WSH, child nutrition counseling plus lipid-based nutrient supplements (N), WSH (N+WSH). Among the birth cohort, measured biomarkers gut inflammation (myeloperoxidase, neopterin),...

Background: Wastewater monitoring has helped health officials around the globe with COVID-19 management and response, providing near real-time information on changing disease trends. However, elimination of pandemic relief funding threatens future this innovative approach to surveillance, which could leave countries more vulnerable next widespread threat. While wastewater provides a cost-effective way monitor for range threats beyond SARS-CoV-2, there is little evidence value that data...

Abstract Frequent antibiotic use in areas with high infection burdens can lead to antimicrobial resistance and microbiome alterations. Reducing pathogen exposure child undernutrition reduce infections subsequent use. We assessed effects of water, sanitation, handwashing (WSH) nutrition interventions on pediatric Bangladesh Kenya, using longitudinal data from birth cohorts (at ages 3-28 months) enrolled the WASH Benefits cluster-randomized trials. Over 50% children used antibiotics at least...

The Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP) is classified as a non-deterministic polynomial (NP) hard problem, which has found widespread application in several scientific and technological domains. Due to its NP-hard nature, it very solve effectively efficiently. Despite this rationale, multitude of optimization approaches have been proposed developed by scientists researchers during the last decades. Among these algorithms, heuristic are deemed appropriate for addressing intricate issue. One...
