Outage analysis of hybrid FSO/RF systems based on finite-state Markov chain modeling
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we analyze the outage probability of a hybrid free-space optical/radio-frequency (FSO/RF) communication system with soft-switching. In soft-switching approach, either one of the links or both links can be ...
Energy-efficient cloud resource management
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
We propose a resource management framework that reduces energy consumption in cloud data centers. The proposed framework predicts the number of virtual machine requests along with their amounts of CPU and memory resources, ...
Growth factor releasing core-shell polymeric scaffolds for tissue engineering applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Tissue engineering is the use of a combination of cells, biomaterials and appropriate signals to repair or improve the functions of damaged tissues. Our group is exploiting various approaches to effectively encapsulate ...
Group owner election in Wi-Fi direct
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Wi-Fi Direct is a new protocol that standardizes the direct communication between Wi-Fi enabled mobile devices without requiring an access point. The specification proposes enhanced peer-to-peer functions to be supported ...
Adolescents Surveillance System for Obesity in Europe. A pioneering project to prevent obesity in Italy using e-technology: the ASSO Project Adolescence Surveillance System for Obesity Prevention
(
IADIS
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Adolescents’ obesity is a major concern in our modern life; it could lead to significant increase in the rate of obese in the
future generations and consequently the health budget. The ASSO Project in Italy (Adolescence ...
Characteristics of cardiac rehabilitation programs in Latin America and the Caribbean, and estimation of capacity and needs in the region
(
European Society of Cardiology
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Background
Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) is an established model of cardiovascular (CV) prevention that has proven benefits. Availability, characteristics and need of CR programs in Latin-American and Caribbean (LAC) countries ...
Double EWMA-Based Polynomial Quality Profiles Monitoring
(
Wiley
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Profile monitoring is useful whenever the quality is described by a relationship between a response and one or more of explanatory variables. It is conventional to refer to this relationship as Quality Profile. Despite the ...
Electrodeposition of liquid metals from molten salts
(
Electrochemical Society Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Many important metals are being produced by electrolysis in molten salts (aluminium, sodium, rare earths and other reactive metals). Also industrial electrorefining of aluminium takes place in a molten salt electrolyte. ...
An efficient instance hiding scheme
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Delegating computation, which is applicable to many practical contexts such as cloud computing or pay-TV system, concerns the task where a computationally weak client wants to securely compute a very complex function f on ...
Smart neuropathy detection using machine intelligence: Filling the void between clinical practice and early diagnosis
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
An important aspect of Smart healthcare involves the development of innovative non-intrusive procedures for early detection and diagnosis of specific illnesses. Essentially, diseases for which very complicated and invasive ...
