An Emission and Discard Priority Scheme for Optical Burst Switched Networks by Acquaah_PEK

“…Amongst these techniques, deflection routing is the most cost-effective because it requires no extra hardware and offers high throughput at low loads. However, deflection routing has shortcomings such as high burst loss at high loads and a high number of late packet arrivals, which hinder its performance. …”

Photovoltaics for educational television in rural schools by Cowan, William Douglas

“…Overall conclusions are that PV systems can provide a reliable and technically appropriate solution to the problem of powering light electrical loads in off-grid schools. Levelised unit energy costs can be acceptable if PV systems are critically sized, and if there is close match between designed capacity and actual load energy demand. …”
