A Mid-Market Supply Chain Manager’s Roadmap to Mobile

Mobility is a hot topic these days. Regardless of industry or profession, there is a mobile application or ecosystem in development to serve it. The supply chain is no different.

Security for Multihop Wireless Networks

As discussed above, there are many types, sub-types, variants, and sub-variants reported in the literature about security attacks in MANETs.

Philosophy and Blade Runner

idley Scott judges Blade Runner to be unusual as films go: ‘Blade Runner works on a level which I haven’t seen much – or ever – in a mainstream film. It works like a book. Like a very dark novel’ (Knapp and Kulas 2005, p. xiv). This is hardly surprising given the film’s genesis in Philip K. Dick’s 1968 dystopian science fiction novel, Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep? In his bi…
