AbstractThe CARRIOCAS project aims to guarantee QoS connectivity services to distributed applications in a Telecom carrier network. A large number of these applications (for example video applications) use a multicast service packet delivery. Multicast which minimizes the total used bandwidth in the MPLS network has become an important subject. We study multicast routing in the network where only some routers can duplicate packets. We prove that the construction of a multicast tree minimizing the bandwidth used in such a network is a NP-complete problem and we propose an heuristic algorithm to...

80% of least developed countries populations rely on traditional medicine (TM). West Africa is not left outdone. Multilingualism is very manifest. Additionally, TM practitioners (TMP) commonly desire to keep secret their knowledge. Illiteracy affects the vast majority of TMP in this region. Thus, exchanges between practitioners for knowledge and experience sharing are severely hindered by multilingualism, illiteracy and secretiveness. The reliability and relevance question of the data and knowledge gathered from these practitioners is therefore raised. Conventional data collection methods are...

Abstract Palmer amaranth can grow 4.2 mm in height per degree day; hence, delays of a few days in weed control deployment can result in applications of herbicides to weeds that are larger than those for which the herbicide label recommends. Therefore, it is critically necessary to understand the effect of plant size at the time of herbicide application in conjunction with herbicide spray solution and nozzle type pairings on the effectiveness of weed management programs in the Enlist E3 and XtendFlex production systems. Field experiments were conducted in 2020, in no-crop conditions, at two loc...

Trunk phloem necrosis (TPN) is a physiological disease of rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis Müll. Arg.) discovered in the 1980s. It has been distinguished from rubber tree tapping panel dryness (TPD) by its macroscopic symptoms and presumed origin. But little attention has been paid to its microscopic features, and there is now some evidence that both syndromes could be linked to an impaired cyanide metabolism. In order to characterise TPN and compare it with TPD microscopically, the inner phloem of tapping panels was investigated by light and transmission electron microscopy in healthy trees an...

We study the estimation of parameters of one-dimensional diffusion processes that are discretely observed. We construct an estimator of the parameters based on the minimum Hellinger distance method. Under conditions which ensure the ergodicity and geometrically α-mixing of the Markov process, we establish the almost sure convergence and the asymptotic normality of the estimator.

Transformer oil is expected to function as an insulating medium and heat transfer agent. In this contribution, contaminants that mostly influence the electrical and thermal properties of transformer oil are addressed. To access the influence of the type of impurities on oil properties, various scenarios were considered. Investigations were therefore performed on new oil, new oil submitted to electrical stress, service-aged oil, reclaimed (by Fuller's Earth) service-aged oil, dehumidified service-aged oil, dehumidified and degassed service-aged oil. The influence of each type of "contaminant" i...

In this contribution, experimental investigations onto the factors affecting the static electrification of aged transformer oils are undertaken. The effect of aging byproducts (as assessed by Dissolved Decay products, Turbidity, Interfacial Tension and Acid number) of the oil on the streaming current is reported. The results indicate that the electrification currents generally increase with aging by-products of oil. The sign, the amplitude and the time constant of the electrification currents are also affected. The influence of each "impurity" is emphasized and discussed.

More and more Parkia biglobosa plants’ stem barks, and roots are collected for traditional medicine uses. This work aimed to quantify Parkia biglobosa plant parts total polyphenols, total flavonoids contents and their antioxidant activities. The hypothesis was that the plant parts would have different phytochemical contents. So, leaves, stem barks, root barks and mature fruit pulp were collected. Alongside the leaves, the stem and root barks were sliced, air-dried at room temperature for 30 days. Thereafter, the samples were crushed and sieved. Following this, the powders were extracted with d...

Guinea fowl production is increasing in developing countries and has a crucial role in the fight against poverty. However, the feed cost is very high, especially the soya bean meal cost, and farmers cannot afford to buy commercial feed. Consequently, animals do not receive feed adapted to their nutritional needs and they exhibit poor performance. The aim of this paper is to partially substitute soya bean meal by local by-products, discarded, in abundant supply and not used in human nutrition. French Galor guinea fowl (Numida meleagris) and local African guinea fowl (150 birds per breed) were r...

Abstract Rabbit production is increasing in developing countries and can play a crucial role in the fight against poverty. The current work assessed the effect on rabbit does’ reproduction and young kits’ growth when either Panicum maximum, common name Guinea grass, or Desmodium tortuosum, common name Beggarweed is included in their diet. Diets ReC and GrC (standard granulated diets) served as control diets, formulated for doe Reproduction and kit Growth respectively. The trial diets were diets RePan/GrPan (diet ReC/GrC supplemented with dry P. maximum) and diets ReDes/GrDes (diet ReC/GrC supp...
