ISLANDNESS AND APPRECIATING THE IMPORTANCE OF THE RULE OF LAW IN A 21ST CENTURY ISLAND CONTEXT: THE CASE OF THE ISLE OF MAN

Islandness and Appreciating the Importance of the Rule of Law in a 21st Century Island Context: The Case of the Isle of Man

Despite the vibrant and growing island studies scholarship exploring the unique characteristics of Islands Pants and Islandness, which is both multidisciplinary and interdisciplinary, there has been little research into the unique characteristics associated with the appreciation of the Rule of Law and island identity in an island context.Similarly,

Risk factors for 30-day in-hospital mortality for in-patient with stroke in sub-Saharan Africa: protocol for a systematic review and meta-analysis

Introduction While individual studies have reported on in-hospital stroke mortality rates in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), the estimates are highly variable and inconclusive, buttressing the need for precise and reliable estimations.To overcome these inconsistencies, a well-structured systematic review and meta-analytical models are necessary.However,

Energy-efficient image compression algorithm for wireless sensor networks in structural health monitoring applications

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN), transmitting an uncompressed image consumes more energy than a compressed image, and it is, therefore, the prime requirement to establish energy-aware compression methods to extend the life of the sensor node, and ultimately the network as a whole.This work suggests an image compression algorithm with a low degree
