Utility-based uplink scheduling algorithm for enhancing throughput and fairness in relayed LTE networks
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
Relaying is one of the key techniques considered by the 3GPP LTE-Advanced as part of 4G cellular technologies, aiming to increase the coverage and capacity of the network especially for the edge nodes. In this work, we ...
Cognitive relaying in wireless sensor networks: Performance analysis and optimization
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
The anticipated increase in the density of the deployed wireless sensor networks calls for spectrum sharing through unlicensed access to licensed spectrum. The key technology for spectrum sharing in this scenario is cognitive ...
Mobile wireless sensor networks applied to the survey of water infrastructures
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
The paper reports our last advances in the realization of mobile wireless sensor networks (WSNs), able to reveal unknown tracks and leakages within underground pipelines used to distribute water. This WSN technology is ...

Fuzzy prediction for failed back surgery syndrome
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2010 , Article)
In this article a new strategy is presented that can be used by neurophysicians, neurosurgeons, and orthopedic surgeons to predict patients' health after an operative procedure on the vertebral column just by analyzing the ...
Performance analysis of best relay selection scheme for amplify-and-forward cooperative networks in identical Nakagami-m channels
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
In cooperative communication networks, the use of multiple relays between the source and the destination was proposed to increase the diversity gain. Since the source and all the relays must transmit on orthogonal channels, ...
Inhibiting corrosion of n-GaAs by cetylpyridinium chloride for stabilised photoelectochemical cell
(
Maney Publishing
, 2010 , Article)
The cationic surfactant cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) provides photocorrosion inhibition to the GaAs surface when CPC is chemisorbed on the GaAs surface from aqueous acidic electrolytes at concentrations of CPC lower than ...
Adsorption and desorption equilibria of nitrogen, methane, ethane, and ethylene on date-pit activated carbon
(
American Chemical Society
, 2010 , Article)
Date pits were used to produce a highly porous activated carbon. The resulting date-pit activated carbon was used in a volumetric adsorption apparatus to measure the vapor-phase adsorption and desorption of nitrogen, ...
Interest-determining web browser
(2010 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates the application of data-mining techniques on a user's browsing history for the purpose of determining the user's interests. More specifically, a system is outlined that attempts to determine certain ...
Investigation of the use of TiO2 doped with metal ions in water disinfection
(
IWA Publishing
, 2010 , Article)
This research was conducted to improve titanium dioxide by transition metal doping using cooper. Sol gel method was used to prepare metal doped TiO 2. Titanium isopropoxide and commercial TiO2 P25 were employed as catalyst ...
