Virtual topologies for massively parallel computations. (c2015) by Jahed, Karim A.

“…Cores would spend computation time generating and exchanging tasks rather than traversing the search tree. This communication overhead will only increase as we scale-up the computation, up to the point where adding new cores negatively affects the computational time. …”

Positron annihilation doppler broadening spectroscopy of carbon black and carbon black-filled rubber polymers by Semaan, Mars E.

“…This behavior can be understood as due to a combination of reduction in positronium formation as carbon black is added to the polymer, and the decrease in positron annihilation with valence electrons in the sample as the amount of carbon black-polymer links are increased. No effect on the S parameter is observed for sample mixing times longer than 45 seconds. …”

Introducing Extended Data on Terrorist Groups (EDTG), 1970 to 2016 by Hou, Dongfang

“…Our EDTG-based survival analysis is at odds with some of the literature: for example, the demise of a leader and a larger share of transnational terrorist attacks increase the group’s odds of failure. After 2001, religious terrorist groups are more resilient than those with other ideologies. …”

Personnel contributions to UN and non-UN peacekeeping missions A public goods approach by Gaibulloev, Khusrav

“…The analysis shows that UN missions are much less responsive to personnel spillovers, derived from other contributors' peacekeepers, than is the case of non-UN missions. UN peacekeeping missions display either no response or free riding to these personnel spillovers, while non-UN missions indicate spillover complementarity. …”

Reusing Minarets as a Passive Cooling (Wind Catcher/Solar Chimney): A Case Study in the Emirate of Sharjah by ABDALLA, TALIB ABDALLA ALI

“…The minaret accompanies the design of each mosque, which is equivalent to the number of mosques, and more, since some mosque designs have more than one minaret. In this research, the idea of repurposing minarets or adding new uses to them is studied, such as using minarets as a passive cooling method, such as using them as wind catchers/solar chimneys that contribute to the process of directing the wind to the prayer hall and work to increase thermal comfort through environmentally friendly passive cooling methods. …”
