Towards agile approach for better user satisfaction
(
Mundo Press
, 2014 , Article)
User satisfaction is a cornerstone indicator of any successful software project. Software projects are classified as successful only if the users are satisfied with the delivered software project result. Reducing the gap ...
Interference-aware energy-efficient cross-layer design for healthcare monitoring applications
(
Elsevier
, 2014 , Article)
Body Area Sensor Networks (BASNs) leverage wireless communication technologies to provide healthcare stakeholders with innovative tools and solutions that can revolutionize healthcare provisioning; BASNs thus promotes new ...
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 ...
Up and away: A visually-controlled easy-to-deploy wireless UAV Cyber-Physical testbed
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Cyber-Physical Systems (CPS) have the promise of presenting the next evolution in computing with potential applications that include aerospace, transportation, and various automation systems. These applications motivate ...
ConProve: A conceptual prover system
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
ConProve is an automated prover for propositional logic. It takes, as an input, a set of propositional formulas and proves whether a goal holds or not. ConProve converts each formula to its corresponding Truth Table Binary ...
Classification ensemble to improve medical named entity recognition
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
An accurate Named Entity Recognition (NER) is important for knowledge discovery in text mining. This paper proposes an ensemble machine learning approach to recognise Named Entities (NEs) from unstructured and informal ...
Overcoming user selfishness in DSA systems through credit-based resource allocation
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
We propose a credit-based resource allocation technique for wireless systems with dynamic spectrum access (DSA) capability, such as multichannel wireless sensor networks. The proposed technique is robust against selfish ...
An adaptive route optimization scheme for nested mobile IPv6 NEMO environment
(
IEEE Computer Society
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
We address the route optimization problem for a nested mobile IPv6 NEtwork MObility (NEMO) environment. We propose an adaptive scheme which can optimize the routing process of the data communication, and minimize the ...
Release-time aware VM placement
(
IEEE
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Consolidating virtual machines (VMs) on as few physical machines (PMs) as possible so as to turn into sleep as many PMs as possible can make significant energy savings in cloud centers. Although traditional online bin ...
Online multi-resource scheduling for minimum task completion time in cloud servers
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
We design a simple and efficient online scheme for scheduling cloud tasks requesting multiple resources, such as CPU and memory. The proposed scheme reduces the queuing delay of the cloud tasks by accounting for their ...
