Synthesis and characterization of Cu-doped TiO2 thin films produced by the inert gas condensation technique
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The bandgap of thin films Cu-doped TiO2 nanoclusters prepared using the inert gas condensation (IGC) technique have been investigated at various Cu contents. The samples were characterized using XRD, SEM/EDS and UV-visible ...
Using Financial Options for Pricing of IaaS Cloud Resources
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
IaaS cloud resources are offered by cloud providers using various pricing schemes such as reservation, scheduled, on-demand and spot pricing. Such pricing models suffer from either wasteful payment in case of underutilization ...
Subjective Evaluation of Market-Driven Cloud Services
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
We investigate the use of subjective metrics in social media to evaluate cloud service performance in the market. We first examine the subjective factors that drive cloud consumers to/from purchasing cloud services. These ...
Social-Sensor Cloud Service Selection
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
We propose a new framework for social-sensor cloud services selection based on spatio-textual correlation between user's query and service. The proposed research defines a formal social-sensor cloud service model that ...
A hexagonal hysteresis space vector current controller for single Z-source network multilevel inverter with capacitor balancing
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Z-source neutral-point clamped multilevel inverter (Z-NP-MLI) used in solar grid connected applications due to their better performance related to conventional inverters. Normally, current controller based Pulse Width ...
Robust detection of acoustic partial discharge signals in noisy environments
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Partial discharge (PD) can be used to predict insulation failures in power transformers. Accurate detection of particular PD types has a significant role in anticipating forthcoming outages. However, the noise encountered ...
A QoE-Aware Joint Resource Allocation and Dynamic Pricing Algorithm for Heterogeneous Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The rise of third-party content providers and the introduction of numerous applications has been driving the growth of mobile data traffic in the past few years. The applications' various Quality of Service (QoS) requirements ...
A new fifteen-switch inverter topology for two five-phase motors drive
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
