RSU cloud and its resource management in support of enhanced vehicular applications
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
We propose Roadside Unit (RSU) Clouds as a novel way to offer non-safety application with QoS for VANETs. The architecture of RSU Clouds is delineated, and consists of traditional RSUs and specialized micro-datacenters and ...
Haralick feature extraction from time-frequency images for epileptic seizure detection and classification of EEG data
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents novel time-frequency (t-f) features based on t-f image descriptors for the automatic detection and classification of epileptic seizure activities in EEG data. Most previous methods were based only on ...
Modeling the enablers of organizational commitment
(
Emerald Group Publishing
, 2014 , Article)
Purpose: Organizational commitment (OC) has important implications for both individuals and organizational outcomes. This paper aims to present an approach to understand the dynamics between various enablers that help to ...
Drug-related problems identified by pharmacists conducting medication use reviews at a primary health center in Qatar
(
Kluwer Academic Publishers
, 2014 , Article)
Background: Medication use review (MUR) is increasingly being recognized globally as a routine strategy performed by pharmacists to optimize the therapeutic outcomes of long-term medications. MUR services are not commonly ...
Spectrum-aggregating cognitive multi-antenna user with multiple primary users
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
We investigate a cognitive radio scenario involving a single cognitive transmitter equipped with K antennas sharing the spectrum with M primary users (PUs) transmitting over orthogonal bands. Each terminal has a queue to ...
Distributed cross-layer optimization for healthcare monitoring applications
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Mobile Health (mHealth) systems leverage wireless and mobile communication technologies to provide healthcare stakeholders with innovative tools and solutions that can revolutionize healthcare provisioning. Body Area Sensor ...
Renewable energy-harvested sensor systems for air quality monitoring
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) devoted to environmental monitoring has preponderantly assumed the adoption of a portable and limited energy source, (e.g. lithium, alkaline, NiMH batteries), to support the sensor ...
Towards energy efficient relay placement and load balancing in future wireless networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents an energy efficient relay deployment algorithm that determines the optimal location and number of relays for future wireless networks, including Long Term Evolution (LTE)-Advanced heterogeneous networks. ...
Improved mechanical properties of AZ31 magnesium alloy plates by pre-rolling followed by warm compression
(
Elsevier Ltd
, 2014 , Article)
AZ31 magnesium alloy plates were processed by pre-rolling followed by warm compression. The corresponding microstructure evolution and mechanical properties were investigated in the present paper. The pre-introduced twins ...
ANN-based system for a discrimination between unbalanced supply voltage and phase loss in induction motors
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
It is documented that almost 98% of all voltage generated by electric utilities has up to 3% unbalance. Single phasing fault deserves special attention since phase loss is considered the worst case of unbalanced supply ...
