Optimal control of a non-isothermal catalytic packed-bed reactor model
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This work deals with the linear-quadratic control problem for a non-isothermal packed-bed catalytic reactor, which is described by coupled hyperbolic and parabolic partial differential equations model. The classical Riccati ...
Support peer assessment processes in online problem-based learning
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Problem Based Learning (PBL) is proposed as one of the most well-known alternatives to traditional lectures in modeling engineering graduates to become independent workers, critical thinkers, problem solver, lifelong ...
Performance analysis of best relay selection scheme for fixed gain cooperative networks in non-identical Nakagami-m channels
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
Selecting the best relay among all the relays ready to cooperate saves system resources and utilizes the available bandwidth more efficiently compared to the regular all-relay cooperation. This scheme also achieves the ...
Energy in smart grid: Strategies and technologies for efficiency enhancement
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Incorporating advanced software and hardware technologies, to create a two way electricity and information flow, is forming the concept of the smart grid (SG). In an SG the energy delivery and control not only autonomous ...
Optimum power and rate allocation in cluster based video sensor networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In a wireless video sensor network (WVSN), each video sensor node consumes a significant amount of power on video compression in addition to the required power for communication. Therefore, the power optimization is a more ...
PEAM: A polymorphic, energy-aware MAC protocol for WBAN
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
In remote healthcare monitoring and care delivery, obtaining the right information at the right time is critical. For these systems, designing an efficient MAC protocol that is able to meet the challenges on network quality ...
New plain-text authentication secure scheme for implantable medical devices with remote control
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
Implantable medical devices are being increasingly used to treat or monitor different medical conditions. For such purposes, wireless is the most desired communication scheme to be implemented in these devices. On the other ...
Trading wireless information and power transfer: Relay selection to minimize the outage probability
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
This paper studies the outage probability minimization problem for a multiple relay network with energy harvesting constraints. The relays are hybrid nodes used for simultaneous wireless information and power transfer from ...
Experimental investigation of the laminar flame speeds of GTL fuel blends
(
American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics Inc, AIAA
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This work investigates the laminar flame speed of GTL fuel and its 50%-50% blend with conventional diesel, in a cylindrical bomb capable of measuring laminar flame speed, SN, at different initial temperatures and equivalence ...
Optimal power allocation and relay selection in two-way multi-relay cooperative communication
(2013 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we investigate the power allocation in two-way multi-relay assisted cooperative network in which the relays operate in decode-and-forward (DF) protocol. In the proposed method for choosing the best relay ...
