Distributed interference management using Q-Learning in cognitive femtocell networks: New USRP-based implementation
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Femtocell networks have become a promising solution in supporting high data rates for 5G systems, where cell densification is performed using the small femtocells. However, femtocell networks have many challenges. One of ...
Optimizing Energy-Distortion Trade-off for Vital Signs Delivery in Mobile Health Applications
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Healthcare is considered a top priority worldwide, considering the swift increase in the number of chronic patients who require continuous monitoring. This motivates the researchers to develop scalable remote health ...
Traffic Analysis Attacks on Tor: A Survey
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The Tor anonymity network is one of the most popular and widely used tools to protect the privacy of online users. Tor provides defenses against multiple adversarial activities aiming to identify or trace the users. Traffic ...
Proportionally fair approach for tor's circuits scheduling
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
The number of users adopting Tor to protect their online privacy is increasing rapidly. With a limited number of volunteered relays in the network, the number of clients' connections sharing the same relays is increasing ...
A comprehensive rheological study for a flowing polymer-based drilling fluid used for wellbore strengthening
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers (SPE)
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
Loss circulation encountered in highly fractured formations, depleted reservoir, or HP/HT intervals is the root cause of many problems plaguing the oil and gas sector for many years. High pore pressure narrows the window ...
Potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae for carbon dioxide bio-fixation and advanced wastewater treatment
(
AIChE
, 2017 , Conference Paper)
The potential use of mixed indigenous microalgae (MIMA) as a CO2 capturing technology and treatment process for wastewaters was evaluated at two temperatures ( 25 and 30 C) and different CO2 dosage ( 0%, 5% and 15%). During ...
Application of DFT in iron sulfide scale removal from oil and gas wells
(
European Association of Geoscientists and Engineers, EAGE
, 2019 , Conference Paper)
Scale formation including those formed by iron sulfides have been a major hassle in the upstream sector of the oil and gas industry for many decades. Iron Sulfide scales including pyrite (FeS2) and troilite (FeS) often ...
Rheological characterization of NA2CO3 activated calcium bentonite for oil and gas drilling applications
(
AIChE
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
Calcium bentonite was activated with soda ash (Na2CO3) at various ratios and due to the ion exchange; the original Ca-bentonite was converted to Na-bentonite. It was found that the Na2CO3 activation improves the swelling ...

A mechanistic gas kick model to simulate gas in a riser with water and synthetic-based drilling fluid
(
Society of Petroleum Engineers
, 2020 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a simple mechanistic model to describe a gas kick in a drilling riser with water- based mud (WBM) and synthetic-based mud (SBM). This model can estimate key kick parameters such as the change in the ...
