Criticality measures for components with multi-dimensional degradation
( Taylor and Francis Ltd. , 2014 , Article)Failures of engineering structures and equipment are often attributed to the failure of a single component. Hence, it is important to identify critical components in a system and understand how a component's criticality ... -
Cross coupled interlinked split ring resonator based epsilon negative metamaterial with high effective medium ratio for multiband satellite and radar communications
( Elsevier , 2020 , Article)In this paper, a cross coupled interlinked split ring resonator based (CCI-SRR) based metamaterial has been presented. Epsilon negative (ENG) with a highly effective medium ratio (EMR) is attained in this metamaterial. The ... -
Cross Layer NOMA Interference Mitigation for Femtocell Users in 5G Environment
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2019 , Article)In this paper, we propose a joint channel allocation and power control algorithm by using cognitive radio non-orthogonal multiple access (CR-NOMA) for femtocell users (FUs). The aim is to maximize the sum rate of the FUs ... -
Cross-industry standard test method developments: from manufacturing to wearable robots
( Zhejiang University , 2017 , Article Review)Manufacturing robotics is moving towards human-robot collaboration with light duty robots being used side by side with workers. Similarly, exoskeletons that are both passive (spring and counterbalance forces) and active ... -
Cross-Layer Optimal Rate Allocation for Heterogeneous Wireless Multicast
( Hindawi Publishing Corporation , 2009 , Article)Heterogeneous multicast is an efficient communication scheme especially for multimedia applications running over multihop networks. The term heterogeneous refers to the phenomenon when multicast receivers in the same session ... -
Cross-Network Performance Analysis of Network Coding Aided Cooperative Outband D2D Communications
( Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc. , 2017 , Article)In long term evolution advanced (LTE-A) networks, the mobile devices can concurrently participate in cooperative outband device-to-device (D2D) data exchange by virtue of user- or network-related parameters (e.g., interest ... -
Cross-training policies for repair shops with spare part inventories
( Elsevier B.V. , 2019 , Article)We study a spare part supply system for repairable spare parts where parallel repair servers may have multiple skills (can repair different failed parts). Demands for the spares occur according to Poisson processes with ... -
Crosslingual automatic diacritization for Egyptian Colloquial Dialect
( IEEE Computer Society , 2016 , Conference Paper)In this paper, the problem of missing diacritic marks in most of dialectal Arabic written resources is addressed. Our aim is to implement a scalable and extensible platform for automatically retrieving the diacritic marks ... -
Crosstalk between HER2 and PD-1/PD-L1 in Breast Cancer: From Clinical Applications to Mathematical Models.
