The Dawn Angiosperms

Uncovering the Origin of Flowering Plants

by Xin Wang ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
Angiosperms are the most diversi ed plant group in the world, being represented by ca 300,000 species in about 400 families. Like all of Life, including ourselves, they have had their own history and gone through many evolutionary stages before they arrived at their current forms. The origin of Angiospermae ( owering plants) has been the subject of much dispute because this is a key event in the ... Read more

Uncovering the Origin of Flowering Plants

by Xin Wang ...

Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
This book discusses the controversial and conflicting hypotheses on the origin of angiosperms, which was generally assumed to be restricted to the Cretaceous and later ages. Since publishing the first edition of “The Dawn of Angiosperms” in 2010, several important advances have been made in this field of science, namely 1) the discovery of new fossil angiosperms from the Jurassic; 2) European ...

Scheduling and Congestion Control for Wireless Internet

by Xin Wang ...

Series series Engineering (R0)
This brief proposes that the keys to internet cross-layer optimization are the development of non-standard implicit primal-dual solvers for underlying optimization problems, and design of jointly optimal network protocols as decomposition of such solvers. Relying on this novel design-space oriented approach, the author develops joint TCP congestion control and wireless-link scheduling schemes for ... Read more
