The main objective behind the development of IEEE 802.11ac was to deliver WLANs with exceptionally very high throughput rates. Significant improvements were incorporated into the PHY and MAC layers to achieve this, leading to enhanced data rates and overall network performance. These enhancements have enabled the standard 802.11ac to support channel bonding schemes. This paper looks at how channel bonding affects the performance of system, especially in terms of delay and amount of throughput. The research paper looks at four different scenarios with different numbers of channel BW 40,80 & 160MHz, and various spatial streams (SS) from 1 to 8. The network simulator (NS-3) version 3.37 is used to simulate these scenarios. The results of the simulation indicate that when Dynamic Channel Bonding (DCB) is applied, the highest throughput and least amount of delay values are acquired. Specifically, for MIMO (8×8) SS and with respect to the Static Channel Bonding (SCB), the best improvement of throughput and delay are obtained with DCB in the highest (48 node number) scenario. The throughput development values are (90.21%, 87.3%, and 42.91%) and the delay improvement values are (47.43%, 46.61%, and 30.03%) for channel BWs 40,80, &160 MHz, respectively.","PeriodicalId":13648,"journal":{"name":"Int.

The proposed improvement of the MMAS algorithm occurs in two stages. The first stage analyses the environment with two modifications by proposing a new relation of pheromone trail updating to construct the consequence modified (deposited) pheromone trail update in each iteration based on adding a new parameter (clean) to calculate the possible wide empty locations. Another alteration at this level involves checking and identifying the four horizontal and vertical states. Suppose the two nodes on either side of the four diagonal nodes are barriers in the next neighbor locations. In that case, the Tight Tunnel state is then attained, and it is managed by sealing this location to prevent passing through it before the robot movement stage. Another alteration is made to the robot-moving stage by recommending a new relation of tour building probabilities to determine the best option for moving the robot from the start node through a dynamic environment that incorporates dynamic obstacles moving through free space by locating and exhibiting the ideal path via broad free space. The main outcome of the experiment simulation of the new method involves that the robot avoids going through narrow tunnels and chooses the best course through open areas to reach its destination without running into any impediments in various dynamic environments conditions. In addition, the comparison of average time occupied to find the paths by the new method reduces to 54.32% as compared with that required with the method of hybrid the basic D* algorithm with the Lbest PSO algorithm, and to 11.95% in comparison to the time occupied recorded when applying the method of the improved MAX–MIN ACO algorithm.","PeriodicalId":13648,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Now, it is the time for marketers and owners of restaurants to develop effective marketing strategies. Therefore, this research aimed to investigate the effect of communication on e-service quality and food quality on customers’ loyalty. These relations were further explored by the mediating role of communication. Methodology- The data were collected from customers ordering food online. The collected data were further analyzed by using AMOS. The results highlighted that both e-service quality and food quality can enhance the loyalty of customers. Moreover, the presence of communication also, explained that e-service quality and food quality can significantly and positively affect customer loyalty. This research has highlighted the broader domains but still there are some limitations that can be addressed by future studies. The study is based on one country and future studies can compare the results of developed and developing countries. In addition, the model of study can be enhanced by introducing subjective knowledge or information credibility as potential moderators because they can also generate loyalty. \u0000 ","PeriodicalId":13648,"journal":{"name":"Int.

Cross-sectional research was made at the University of Sharjah in UAE between January and April 2021. As a study tool, a questionnaire with 26 items was created using Google Forms and disseminated by the registration department via the learner's E-learning platforms. The study's data were analyzed using SPSS software. The outcomes demonstrated that students had a high level of acceptance of the computerized assessment. The overall arithmetic mean of the students' replies was (3.49) and had a standard deviation of (1.33), indicating that they accepted the electronic assessment to a high degree. Furthermore, there was a discernible difference between the acceptance of the internet-based assessment by male and female students, but the College of Medicine (COM) students benefited significantly from the variation in acceptance of the assessment depending on the variable of college. Students who had inadequate computer capacities, on the other hand, were more receptive to electronic testing.

However, the research on vocabulary in recent years gradually diminishes as students age and get to higher education [1]. Many researchers recommend the effective use of digital tools to motivate students to participate actively in learning [9], and digital gamification makes quite an impact by creating student interest in word learning [1] [12]. At this juncture, our research serves the need for improving the vocabulary of Engineering students through digital gamification using 'Quizizz' in their Practice tests and Google Forms with 'AutoProctor' to preclude their malpractice during their assessment test-taking. This study was carried out based on quantitative research by collecting and analyzing numerical data of a couple of research groups, the control group (n1=45) and experimental group (n2=69), and also through a closed-ended questionnaire using a Likert Scale. The findings demonstrate how this research culminated in the results that brought a subtle difference in the two groups; the control and experimental groups that pursued the traditional and blended methods. The Pooled Standard Deviation (Spooled) (Weighted average of Standard Deviations from both the groups) statistically demonstrated that it had deviated from the control group's Standard Deviation (s1) by 0.286 and from the experimental group's Standard Deviation (s2) by 0.2. This weighted average vindicated the study that the experimental group could perform better than the control group in the post-test.","PeriodicalId":13648,"journal":{"name":"Int. J. Interact. Mob.
