Increasingly adults over the age of 50 are receiving a diagnosis of autism spectrum condition.Growing up in a time when autism was poorly recognised, these adults EMUAID have lived unknowingly with the condition and face readjustment.This paper reports the first study to investigate this population.Nine adults over the age of 50, who had recently b
We outline the ability of zinc phosphate coatings, obtained by chemical conversion, to protect mild steel Polish rebars against localized corrosion, generated by chloride ions in alkaline media.The corrosion resistance of coated steel, in comparison with uncoated rebars and coated and uncoated steel rebars embedded in mortar, were evaluated by open
Environment classification is one of the most critical tasks for Unmanned Aerial Air Conditioner Vehicles (UAV).Since water accumulation may destabilize UAV, clouds must be detected and avoided.In a previous work presented by the authors, Superpixel Segmentation (SPS) descriptors with low computational cost are used to classify ground, sky, and clo

Reliability and cost are two important targets for distributed storage systems.For many years, numerous schemes have been proposed to improve the reliability or cost of distributed storage systems, and they can be divided into three categories: (1) data redundancy schemes; (2) data placement schemes; and (3) data repair schemes.However, it is still
