and the peripheral thermoreceptors. The peripheral thermo-receptor is located in the dermal layer of the skin and is able to detect a change in external temperatures - which is the stimulus. The hypothalamus is a portion of the brain that is the control centre for thermoregulation. Thermo-receptors on the anterior region of the hypothalamus are able to detect the change in blood temperature. As these receptors detect the change in temperature - derailing from the set point of 36.7C‚ the hypothalamus

Random Access Transport Capacity Abstract This project develop a new metric for quantifying end-to end throughput in Multi hop wireless networks‚ which we term random access transport capacity‚ since the interference model presumes uncoordinated transmissions. The metric quantifies the average maximum rate of successful end-to-end transmissions‚ multiplied by the communication distance‚ and normalized by the network area. We show that a simple
