Medium Access Control QoS Analysis in VANET, FANET Software Defined Radio Platform
Pegdwindé Justin Kouraogo, Hamidou Harouna Omar, Désiré Guel
Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs) are critical for the advancement of Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), enabling real-time vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) and vehicle-to-infrastructure (V2I) communications. However, ensuring Quality of Service (QoS) in VANETs is challenging due to high mobility, dynamic topologies, and interference. This stu(...)

Les déterminants de l'évolution de carrière des enseignantes de l'enseignement technique tertiaire du Burkina Faso
Lucien ZAONGO ; Evariste Magloire YOGO ; Alizèta OUEDRAOGO
Malgré le nombre de plus en plus croissant de femmes dans le secteur de l’enseignement technique tertiaire, très peu d’entre elles accèdent à des postes de responsabilité ou au corps de l’encadrement pédagogique, et cela semble être lié à des facteurs multiples. Aussi, l’objet de cette étude vise à analyser dans quelle mesure les facteurs indi(...)

Analysis of tuberculosis model with the impact of hospital resources
Hamadoum Dicko, Ali Traoré
A deterministic model of tuberculosis dynamics incorporating available hospital resources is formulated and studied. The model analysis reveals the existence of a disease-free equilibrium that is stable when the basic reproduction number R_0 is less than 1 and several endemic equilibria appear when R_0 is greater than 1. Two types of bifurcati(...)
