Wireless sensor nodes, as typically realized using IEEE 802.15.4 compatible low-power radio transceivers that offer limited throughput, are generally applicable to low-data rate intermittent monitoring applications. In ...

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) are being used everywhere around us whether it be a smart office or an application related to environmental monitoring, healthcare, surveillance, education and training. Most of the time ...

A dedicated single short range communication link is not efficient for an intervehicular communication system and results into degraded performance. To address the problem, a cognitive radio site is proposed as an intelligent ...

In 6LoWPAN networks, several mobility management schemes have been proposed based on Mobile IPv6 (MIPv6) and Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIPv6). However, the existing schemes are centralized, and thus they have many serious drawbacks ...

Glaucoma is a chronic and irreversible neurodegenerative disease in which the neuro-retinal nerve that connects the eye to the brain (optic nerve) is progressively damaged and patients suffer from vision loss and blindness. ...

A major fraction of multimedia stream contents tends to be redundant and leads to wastage of storage capacity and channel bandwidth. In order to eliminate surplus data, standard video compression algorithms exploit spatial ...

The importance of behaviour analysis and activity recognition systems continue to increase with the increasing demand and deployment of video surveillance systems. Motion trajectories provide rich spatio-temporal information ...

This paper identifies a previously undiscovered behavior of uniformly distributed data points or vectors in high dimensional ellipsoidal models. Such models give near normal distributions for each of its dimensions. Converse ...

The multi-hop ad-hoc networking paradigm is expected to be a key feature in future wireless communication systems. In a typical data broadcast scenario, multi-hop ad-hoc routing protocols allow devices (called nodes in ...

This paper reviews various text independent writer identification techniques through offline documents. Different features extraction methods are discussed. Classification approaches that are mainly used for identification ...
