Scalable Containerized Pipeline for Real-time Big Data Analytics by Aurangzaib, Rana

“…The traditional data-stream processing systems are inefficient in processing big data for detecting anomalies, classifications, clustering, and prediction in real-time using minimal resources. In this paper, we address this limitation by proposing a scalable pipeline for real-time processing of big data streams. …”

How to govern the non-cooperative amateur drones? by He D.

“…However, non-cooperative UAVs may cause abuses of low-altitude airspace with potential security and safety problems, posing increasing challenges for low-altitude airspace management. In this article, we analyze the mechanisms to counter UAVs. Then GNSS spoofing on a UAV is described and our experimental results are reported. …”

Na + /H + exchanger isoform 1-induced osteopontin expression facilitates cardiac hypertrophy through p90 ribosomal S6 kinase by Abdulrahman N.

“…Moreover, NHE1 transgenic mice also showed increased collagen deposition, upregulation of CD44 and phosphorylation of p90 ribosomal s6 kinase (RSK), effects that were regressed in OPN knockout mice. In conclusion, we developed an interesting comparative model of active NHE1 transgenic mouse lines which express a dilated hypertrophic phenotype expressing CD44 and phosphorylated RSK, effects which were regressed in absence of OPN.…”

Estimating and decomposing changes in the White–Black homeownership gap from 2005 to 2011 by Seah, Kiat Ying

“…Our analysis shows that the housing bust did not affect the homeownership gap uniformly. In fact, we find that the gap decreased for households that were the least likely to own and remained unchanged for households that were the most likely to own, and that Black households with around a 50% probability of homeownership were especially vulnerable to the crisis. …”
