A service function chain (SFC) is an ordered virtual network function (VNF) chain for processing traffic flows to deliver end-to-end network services in a virtual networking environment.A challenging problem for an SFC in this context is to determine where to deploy VNFs and how to route traffic between VNFs of an SFC on a substrate network.In this
Honey bee propolis is a complex, resinous mixture created by bees using plant sources such as leaves, flowers, and bud exudates.This study characterized how cropland surrounding apiaries affects the chemical composition and antimicrobial effects of propolis.The chemical composition and compound abundance of the propolis samples were analyzed using
Modeling and verification are crucial in designing traffic light control systems, guaranteeing these systems meet desired operational properties and handle dynamic traffic conditions effectively.The design process involves addressing complexities such as route intricacy, congestion, timing, and prioritization, especially important in areas with mul
Osteomyelitis is deep tissue inflammation caused by bacterial infection.If such an infection persists, it can lead to dissolution and necrosis of the bone tissue.As a result of the extensive use of antibiotics, drug-resistant bacteria are an increasingly common cause of osteomyelitis, limiting the treatment options available to surgeons.Photodynami
