An optimum control-based approach for Dynamic Positioning of vessels
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a solution to the problem of Dynamic Positioning of vessels in Arctic environments, using a finite-horizon optimal control based approach. As the first step, an Unscented Kalman Filter (UKF) based ...
Input forager: A user-driven interaction adaptation approach for head worn displays
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Input Forager is a user-driven adaptation approach that enables users to flexibly borrow different embedded inputs from smartwatches, smartphones and tablets, then map borrowed inputs to interaction-events that effect Head ...
Using flipped classroom approach to teach computer programming
(
IEEE
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Flipped classroom approach has been increasingly adopted in higher institutions. Although this approach has many advantages, there are also many challenges that should be considered. In this paper, we discuss the suitability ...
IoT for smart city services: Lifecycle approach
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
"Internet of Things" (IoT) and "Smart City" are widely recognized to address the complexity of modern city operation. Concentration of population, scarcity of resources and environmental concerns are the main challenges ...

Association rule mining on five years of motor vehicle crashes
(
EDP Sciences
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Every year, road accidents kill more than a million people and injure more than 20 million worldwide. This paper aims to offer guidance on road safety and create awareness by pinpointing the major causes of traffic accidents. ...
An Arabic mobile educational system
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Digital devices and computer software can assist children in improving their learning capabilities and comprehension skills. However most of these items are built without taking into consideration the effective needs and ...
Prioritizing deadline-constrained data flows in cloud datacenter networks
(
Association for Computing Machinery
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Real-time interactive application workloads (e.g. web search, social networking, etc.) are composed of a remarkably large number of mini request partitions that require stringent delayminimal aggregation of responses and ...
EPC Gen-2 UHF RFID tags with low-power CMOS temperature sensor suitable for gas applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a passive RFID tag with an embedded temperature sensor intended for the EPC Gen-2 protocol operating in the 902-928 MHz ISM band. The design is implemented as a node of a low cost temperature sensors ...
Performance of eigenvalue based spectrum sensing in full-duplex cognitive radio networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2016 , Conference Paper)
Spectrum sensing is a key component in any cognitive radio network. Recently full-duplex communication, i.e., the ability to transmit and receive at the same time at the same frequency, has become feasible. Residual self ...
