Closed-loop control of anesthesia and mean arterial pressure using reinforcement learning
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
General anesthesia is required for patients undergoing surgery as well as for some patients in the intensive care units with acute respiratory distress syndrome. How-ever, most anesthetics affect cardiac and respiratory ...
Passive pre-cooling potential for reducing building air-conditioning loads in hot climates
(
American Society of Heating, Refrigeration, and Air-Conditioning Engineers (ASHRAE)
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
A major source of energy consumption in the building sector is the extensive use of Heating, Ventilation and Air-Conditioning (HVAC) systems to meet the rising demands for indoor comfort. Advancements in reducing cooling ...
A multi-sensing reconfigurable platform for gas applications
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
The production of hazardous gases due to different physicochemical reactions in gas industries have raised the need of autonomous sensor tag. However the adaptation of remotely controlled sensor tag is still suffering with ...
Performance analysis of general order selection in decentralized cognitive radio networks
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, we consider an underlay secondary network comprising of K transmitter-receiver pairs sharing the spectrum of a primary network, which is divided into n non-overlapping frequency bands (subchannels). Each ...
Traffic engineering in cloud data centers: A column generation approach
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
While many have advocated for the use of Virtual Local Area Networks (VLANs) as a way to provide scalable traffic management, finding the optimal traffic split (mapping) among VLANs to achieve load balancing has turned out ...
Sub-channels selection schemes with interference management for underlay cognitive networks
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Cognitive Radio is a promising concept that offers solution to spectral crowding problem by introducing opportunistic usage of the unoccupied licensed frequency bands. Improving the network capacity and reliability of the ...
Fuzzy mapping of human heuristics for defect classification in gas pipelines using ultrasonic NDE
(
IEEE
, 2007 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a methodology for classifying the common defects in steel pipelines for transporting petroleum and gas. Usually, the nondestructive evaluation (NDE) experts in the industry judges the defect type by ...
ePBL: Design and implementation of a Problem-based Learning environment
(
IEEE
, 2013 , Conference Paper)
Problem-based Learning (PBL) has been utilized by educators for almost half a century as a powerful and engaging student-centered pedagogy. PBL has also been employed across a wide range of disciplines and areas in education ...
Comprehensive Studio, Architectural Accreditation, Cultural Diversity: Considering Conditions, Respecting Context and Pursuing Competence
(2016 , Conference Paper)
Architectural education is an increasingly complex endeavor, with the development of knowledge and building of skills aimed at global and local conditions in a state of constant flux. With architecture holding ...
Development of the international cardiac rehabilitation registry data dictionary using a Delphi process
(2020 , Conference Paper)
Background: Cardiac rehabilitation (CR) registries are a powerful tool for improvement
of care quality, and consequently patients’ outcomes. However, there are few CR registries
worldwide, with Canada’s currently being ...
