In this paper, a new model describing the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-acquired immuno deficiency syndrome (AIDS) epidemic spread is proposed. The improvement with respect to the known models has been driven by recent results obtained from historical data collection and the suggestions given by the World Health Organization: the characteristics of the virus diffusion, mainly by body fluids, imply the trivial fact that wise behaviors of healthy subjects and fast timely recognition of a new positive diagnosis should reduce the spread quite fast.

The Internet of Things (IoT) refers to a network of connected devices that collects and exchanges data through the Internet. These things can be artificial or natural and interact as autonomous agents that form a complex system. In turn, business process management (BPM) was established to analyze, discover, design, implement, execute, monitor, and evolve collaborative business processes within and across organizations.

We develop and study adaptive rate scheduling mechanisms over cellular wireless networks, as used for the unicast provision of video streams to client mobiles at variable quality of experience (QoE) levels. Under service type I, mobile users receive video streams at a QoE level that is not lower than a specified value. In addition, mobile users that experience sufficiently high communications channel quality levels, may be provided video streams at higher video quality levels.

According to Human-System Integration analyses, cooperation between humans is one of the most relevant factors in many of today's human activities: do not take it into account in models of working environments is highly farfetched. Although the Human Factor aspects have obtained much benefit from the use of neurophysiological signals to estimate human-machine interaction, very few are the indications about neurophysiological analysis of human cooperation deviating from typical laboratory tasks.
