The burned child : scarred for life? : a study of the long-term psychosocial adjustment of paediatric burn survivors by Liebowitz, Lesley

“…Paediatric bum injury is a significant social problem in South Africa. Despite the magnitude of the problem and its potentially devastating physical, psychological and social consequences, the plight of bum-injured children in the local context is an unrecognized one, and has thus escaped empirical scrutiny to date. …”

Machine learning approach to slice admission control in 5G wireless network by Ojijo, Mourice

“…By increasing the probability of admission during periods of resource availability, the findings demonstrate that the reinforcement learning agent improves long-term utility and fairness by 68.2%. Finally, this thesis proposes a novel sequential twin-actor critic (STAC) method that optimizes a two-stage action process—namely, slice admission control (SAC) and resilience maintenance—by adjusting network resource blocks (RBs) to maximize overall utility. …”

Access network selection schemes for multiple calls in next generation wireless networks by Orimolade, Joseph Folorunsho

“…The RAT selection method was modeled with constraints on terminal battery power, service cost and network congestion to select a specified number of RATs that optimizes the terminal interface utility. The results obtained show an optimum RAT selection strategy that maximizes the terminal utility and selects the best RAT combinations for user's parallel-streaming for voice, video and file-download.…”
