Unequal error protection for power line communications over impulsive noise channels by Ali, Osama Senam Mostafa

“…Power line communications suffer from the excessive power lines' impulsive noise (which can be caused by shedding loads on and off). In this thesis, we present a study of power line communications with unequal error protection for two and four data priority levels hierarchical QAM modulation and space-time block coding. …”

REFLECTIVE practices of educators in a masters' program in Egypt: a case study by Elsayed, Mayada Samy

“…Moreover, the results reveal that reflective practice is a subjective form of learning; therefore, there should be a language (agreed code of understanding) between the professors and the students that they agree on so that they can assess how far they are grasping the content of the course. …”

SdrLift: A Domain-Specific Intermediate Hardware Synthesis Framework for Prototyping Software-Defined Radios by Tsoeunyane, Lekhobola Joachim

“…Gateware for programming FPGAs is described at a lowlevel of design abstraction using Register Transfer Language (RTL), typically using either VHSIC-HDL (VHDL) or Verilog code. In practice, the low-level description languages have a very steep learning curve, provide low productivity for hardware designers and lack readily available open-source library support for fundamental designs, and consequently limit the design to only hardware experts. …”
