Related Studies. In 1981, Lamport [9] first proposed a remote password authentication protocol for insecure channels, and since then, many authentication protocols have been studied [10–24], in order to enhance security and efficiency. In 2006, ▇▇▇▇ et al. [10] proposed a password-based user authentication scheme with a light computational overhead using a one-way hash function and exclusive-OR operations. However, ▇▇▇▇▇ et al. [11] pointed out that ▇▇▇▇ et al.’s scheme [10] could not resist replay and forgery attacks, and then proposed an enhanced scheme. They claimed that their scheme was secure against reply and forgery attacks, and that it provided improved efficiency in the password change process. In 2009, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. [12] described how neither the schemes provided by ▇▇▇▇ et al. [10] and ▇▇▇▇▇ et al. [11] were secure against replay attacks and man-in-the-middle attacks. They also proposed a robust user authentication scheme for the WSN environment. In the same year, Das [13] proposed an enhanced authentication scheme as the basis for ▇▇▇▇ et al.’s scheme [10]. He insisted that their scheme can resist different types of attacks, such as many logged-in-users with the same login identity attacks, off-line password guessing attacks, stolen-verifier attacks and impersonation attacks. However, ▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ [14] pointed out in 2010 that ▇▇▇’s scheme [13] could not resist gateway node bypassing attacks and privileged-insider attacks, and thus proposed an improved authentication scheme. In the same year, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al. [15] demonstrated that ▇▇▇’s scheme [13] and Khan-Alghathbar’s scheme [14] could not resist stolen smart card attacks, and they then proposed a enhanced version. ▇▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇ [16] also pointed out that Das scheme [13] could not resist parallel session attacks, and did not provide mutual authentication. In 2011, ▇▇▇ et al. [17] proposed a user authentication protocol for two-tiered wireless sensor networks, and Yeh et al. [18] proposed an authentication protocol based on elliptic curves cryptography. In 2012, ▇▇▇ et al. [19] and ▇▇▇ et al. [20] proposed a user authentication and key agreement scheme for WSNs based on the use of a smart card. These were both designed to fulfill various security requirements, such as key agreement, mutual authentication, password protection and prevention against several attacks. In 2014, ▇▇▇▇ [21] proposed an user authentication scheme based on biometric technique for WSNs. In the same year, Turkanovic´ et al. [22] prop...

Related Studies. A number of studies have been conducted that are related to the current study. One research group evaluated the strength of wellness policies of Georgia public schools but employed a different methodology than that of the current study.48 Instead of administering a survey, the authors assessed the strength of school wellness policies in relation to school demographics by reviewing actual copies of the schools’ wellness policies.48 It was found that having well-defined goals for the wellness policies as well as nutrition education was positively associated with student academic performance.48 It was also found that only 51% of school districts’ policies complied with all required components of the CNR, which may indicate that it would be beneficial to provide financial and/or technical assistance to schools.48 This study is particularly relevant to the current study because the population includes Georgia public schools and one exposure variable assessed was percentage of economically disadvantaged students.48 One author also studied the association of school nutrition wellness policies and environments in relation to certain school demographic characteristics in a national sample of public elementary, middle, and high schools.48 Similarly to the current study, food environments were compared to a number of similar school demographic characteristics.12,26 The authors assigned each school a composite score of its school food environment and policies (SFEP) based on an analysis of data from the 2005 School Nutrition and Dietary Assessment – III survey.12 There was no significant correlation between FRL rate and SFEPs or between percentage of students that were racial/ethnic minorities and SFEPs.48 This study measured many of the same demographic and school characteristics as the current study, but did not explicitly employ the SEM as a framework.12 On the other hand, one research team investigated school food environments in relation to school demographics in Pennsylvania high schools through administering a survey to foodservice directors and found that FRL rate was a significant predictor of a la carte sales.49 Finally, another research team examined school wellness policies and their barriers to implementation by surveying and conducting focus groups with a nationally representative sample of schools, but did not compare disparities in policy implementation across school demographics.36 The authors found that school board members had the highest confidence...

Related Studies. A case study conducted about Haagen-▇▇▇▇’s Blue Ocean Strategy (Del Mundo, 2008) determined customer satisfaction through a post-decision behavior quantification. A survey among 90 customers showed the presence of brand loyalty through repeat purchase intent and brand preference. ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ (2007) conducted a descriptive study on the integrated marketing and public relations campaign of Toyota Motor Philippines. Through the analysis of interviews with three respondents, it was found out that Toyota has an inclination towards horizontal strategy in coordinating with workers. A study on Sun Cellular’s corporate image (Faelnar, 2007) revealed that the company uses advertising materials as their public relations tools and that there’s more positive perception towards the company. The study used key informant interviews and focus group discussions to gather the data. The frame alignment of Smart Communications and their target market on the company’s corporate identity was measured through a key informant interview and a survey with 105 respondents (▇▇▇▇▇▇▇, 2010). The study yielded that both parties view Smart Communications in the same way. These studies focused on the various companies’ campaign and how it affected the corporate image but no studies were made yet about disaster management and how it was perceived by the people.

Related Studies. Besides the research described so far, we performed a number of other aerosol-related studies, which resulted in papers that were published or are in press. The Gent PM10 sampler was further characterised [▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 1997]; work was done on the applicability of XRF with capillary optics for analysing aerosol samples [▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 1997], and on the use of the NMP for individual particle analysis [▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 1997d]. The elemental mass size distributions, as derived from cascade impactor measurements, were examined for a site near Rome [Maenhaut et al., 1999c] and the long-term data set from SFU samplings on the Antarctic Peninsula was analysed [▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 1998]. The aerosol composition and deposition were examined in eastern Germany [▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 2000]. Urban aerosols were studied in Cracow, Poland [▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 1999, 2000], in Helsinki, Finland [▇▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ et al., 1999, 2000, 2001a, 2001b, 2001c], and in Budapest, Hungary [Salma et al., 2000a, 2000b, 2000c, 2001a, 2001b, 2001c]. These urban studies were to some extent linked to the EUROTRAC-2 AEROSOL subproject. Furthermore, the work in Helsinki fitted within the EUROTRAC-2 project SATURN.
