A CROSS-LAYER ROUTING PROTOCOL BASED ON QUASI-COOPERATIVE MULTI-AGENT LEARNING FOR MULTI-HOP COGNITIVE RADIO NETWORKS

A Cross-Layer Routing Protocol Based on Quasi-Cooperative Multi-Agent Learning for Multi-Hop Cognitive Radio Networks

Transmission latency minimization and energy efficiency improvement are two main challenges in multi-hop Cognitive Radio Networks (CRN), where the knowledge of topology and spectrum Floor Mats statistics are hard to obtain.For this reason, a cross-layer routing protocol based on quasi-cooperative multi-agent learning is proposed in this study.First

A Differential Proteomic Approach to Characterize the Cell Wall Adaptive Response to CO2 Overpressure during Sparkling Wine-Making Process

In this study, a first proteomic approach was carried out to characterize the adaptive response of cell wall-related proteins to endogenous CO2 overpressure, which is typical of second fermentation conditions, in two wine Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains (P29, a conventional second fermentation strain, and G1, a flor yeast strain implicated in sher
