Supply networks and complex adaptive systems: Control versus emergence
TL;DR: In this article, the authors argue that many supply networks emerge rather than result from purposeful design by a singular entity and that the emergent patterns in a supply network can much better be managed through positive feedback, which allows for autonomous action.

An overview of fractal antenna engineering research
Douglas H. Werner,S. Ganguly +1 more
TL;DR: Fractal antenna engineering has been primarily focused in two areas: the first deals with the analysis and design of fractal antenna elements, and the second concerns the application of Fractal concepts to the design of antenna arrays as discussed by the authors.

Characterization and Analysis of Porosity and Pore Structures
TL;DR: There are a large number of methods for quantifying porosity, and an increasingly complex idea of what it means to do so as discussed by the authors, which is why it is important to quantify the relationships between porosity and storage, transport and rock properties, however, the pore structure must be measured and quantitatively described.

Merging information in speech recognition: feedback is never necessary.
TL;DR: It is concluded that modular models are particularly well suited to the problems and constraints of speech recognition, because phonemic decisions are based on the merging of prelexical and lexical information.

Steganography in Digital Media: Principles, Algorithms, and Applications
TL;DR: This clear, self-contained guide shows you how to understand the building blocks of covert communication in digital media files and how to apply the techniques in practice, including those of steganalysis, the detection of Steganography.
