Exploiting context severity to achieve opportunistic service differentiation in vehicular ad hoc networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Wireless Access in Vehicular Environment (WAVE) dictates primitives for intelligent transportation system (ITS) applications and services. The medium access control (MAC) layer in WAVE facilitates service differentiation. ...
Impact of execution time on adaptive wireless video scheduling
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Adaptive wireless video scheduling has been widely studied to improve network performance. However, the majority of existing scheduling algorithms assume that they are able to converge instantaneously to adapt to a dynamic ...
Contribution of Shell Eco-Marathon engineering design experience to soft skills development: A qualitative analysis in the Asian context
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Recent studies emphasize the needs of a wider set of skills engineers require than ever thought. Engineering curricula have been frequently criticized. Engineering design experience is one remedial way of heavy theory ...
Mobility prediction in telecom cloud using mobile calls
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
The proliferation of the telecom cloud has fostered increasing attention on location-based applications and services. Due to the randomness and fuzziness of human mobility, it still remains open to predict user mobility. ...
Torque ripple reduction of radial magnetic gearbox using axial pole pairing
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Magnetic gearbox (MGB) is a contactless magnet-based transmission system that transmits mechanical power between two shafts. MGBs offer significant advantages over mechanical gears such as contactless power transfer, high ...

(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Article)
Offshore wind energy is now seen as a key contributor for the future renewable energy mix. HVDC technology is among the chief technologies enabling widespread use of offshore wind. Thanks to their numerous advantages, ...
Joint routing and resource allocation for delay minimization in cognitive radio based mesh networks
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Article)
This paper studies the joint design of routing and resource allocation algorithms in cognitive radio based wireless mesh networks. The mesh nodes utilize cognitive overlay mode to share the spectrum with primary users. ...
Auditing cloud service level agreement on VM CPU speed
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we present a novel scheme for auditing Service Level Agreement (SLA) in a semi-trusted or untrusted cloud. A SLA is a contract formed between a cloud service provider (CSP)and a user which specifies, in ...

True or spurious long memory in volatility: Further evidence on the energy futures markets
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
The main goal of this paper is to investigate whether the long memory behavior observed in many volatility energy futures markets series is a spurious behavior or not. For this purpose, we employ a wide variety of advanced ...
