The total -n reaction cross section for radioactive fission products have been
evaluated in the region of energy near the giant dipole resonance, from the threshold
energy up to around 30 MeV. The selected fission products lay in the range of
medium mass number, namely: 87Rb, 90Sr, 93Zr, 106Ru, 123Sn, 127Te, 129I and 137Cs.
These radioactive isotopes were chosen as part of the radioactive waste from 235U
fission. Total cross section results were used to calculate the number of incinerated
nuclei, and this method shows efficiency in reducing the radioactivity of these
isotopes. The obtained results show that the incineration rate of radioactive nuclei
increases with the flux of the incident -r

Achieving energy-efficient Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) that monitors all targets at
all times is an essential challenge facing many large-scale surveillance applications.Singleobjective
set cover problem (SCP) is a well-known NP-hard optimization problem used to
set a minimum set of active sensors that efficiently cover all the targeted area. Realizing
that designing energy-efficient WSN and providing reliable coverage are in conflict with
each other, a multi-objective optimization tool is a strong choice for providing a set of
approximate Pareto optimal solutions (i.e., Pareto Front) that come up with tradeoff
between these two objectives. Thus, in the context of WSNs design problem, our main
contribution is to

Aims: Because of the high incidence of cancer in females, we need to identify an accurate therapy to deal with the treatment of different types and stages of cancer. Histopathology acts as an important step to foresee the stage in which the cancer is present, its risk of metastasis, and the health outcomes after completion of treatment. Histopathology grading acts as an important criterion to determine the treatment pattern to be adopted, the prognosis in patients and other possible future risks. Hence conducting novel histopathologcial studies in major female cancers is necessary in determining the treatment plan to be chosen for the patient.

The development of trust between vehicles in vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) serves as a fundamental requirement to guarantee application integrity while maintaining dependability. Reliability and trust allows vehicles to retrieve precise and dependable data from adjacent vehicles to perform the necessary decisions. Security remains difficult in VANET because it lacks central control and is characterized by dynamic operation methods. The main objective centers on developing more effective message verification systems. Since trust exists as a fuzzy concept, we implemented fuzzy logic to obtain trust values. The proposed system divides its functionality into two components which include a controller check stage built with four factors.
