A Combined Decision for Secure Cloud Computing Based on Machine Learning and Past Information
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Cloud computing has been presented as one of the most efficient techniques for hosting and delivering services over the internet. However, even with its wide areas of application, cloud security is still a major concern ...
On network flow maximization via multihop backhauling and UAVs: An integer programming approach
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Although small cells (SC) densification approach plays a prominent role in achieving the data rate and coverage requirements in 5G networks, it poses serious challenges concerning the flexible and cost efficient backhauling ...
A study on the bond behavior of different FRCM systems
(
EDP Sciences
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
Fabric-reinforced cementitous matrix (FRCM) composites are usually applied on the concrete surface for the purpose of strengthening reinforced concrete structures. However, the efficiency of FRCM strengthening is notably ...
ICIC-Enabled Association and Channel Selection for UAV-BSS Based on User Locations and Demands
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
In this work, the downlink association problem is studied when inter-cell interference coordination (ICIC) is enabled at the network side. The serving base stations (BSs) are mounted over unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), ...
Design and implementation of information centered protocol for long haul SHM monitoring
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
In structural health monitoring systems (SHM), robust data transmission is the fundamental constraint. In this work, an information centered protocol is being proposed for multi-sensor and multi-variable communication ...

The global construction industry is predicted to grow rapidly over the next decades by developing globalization, urbanization, and infrastructure renewal. Global Construction 2020 forecasts that China, USA, India, Japan, ...
Exploring risk factors of diarrheal diseases from male workers’ perspectives in Qatar: A qualitative approach.
(
Ministry of Public Health
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Background:
According to WHO, diarrhea is an infection in the intestinal tract, which can be caused by a variety of bacterial, viral and parasitic organisms. The infection spreads through contaminated food or drinking ...
Drill string nonlinear vibrations: Experimental studies and finite-element analysis
(
Institute of Physics Publishing
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
In the present work, nonlinear vibrations of drill strings are studied. A laboratory scale arrangement consisting of a flexible rod with rotor-stator system is used to study the system dynamics. A finite-element model has ...
