A cooperative watchdog model based on Dempster–Shafer for detecting misbehaving vehicles by Abdel Wahab, Omar

“…As a solution, we propose a two-phase model that is able to motivate nodes to behave cooperatively during clusters’ formation and detect misbehaving nodes after clusters are formed. Incentives are given in the form of reputation and linked to network’s services to motivate vehicles to behave cooperatively during the first phase. …”

Slater to Mott Crossover in the Metal to Insulator Transition of Nd2⁢Ir2⁢O7 by Nakayama, M.

“…Upon cooling below the transition temperature, this compound exhibits a gap opening with an energy shift of quasiparticle peaks like a band gap insulator. The quasiparticle peaks are strongly suppressed, however, with further decrease of temperature, and eventually vanish at the lowest temperature, leaving a nondispersive flat band lacking long-lived electrons. …”
