Action video games normalise the phonemic awareness in pre-readers at risk for developmental dyslexia.

Action video-games (AVGs) could improve reading efficiency, enhancing not only visual attention but also phonological processing. Here we tested the AVG effects upon three consolidated language-based predictors of reading development in a sample of 79 pre-readers at-risk and 41 non-at-risk for developmental dyslexia. At-risk children were impaired in either phonemic awareness (i.

A Location-Aware Waypoint-Based Routing Protocol for Airborne DTNs in Search and Rescue Scenarios.

In this paper, we propose GeoSaW, a delay-tolerant routing protocol for Airborne Networks in Search and Rescue scenarios. The protocol exploits the geographical information of UAVs to make appropriate message forwarding decisions. More precisely, the information about the future UAV's motion path is exploited to select the best UAV carrying the message towards the destination.
