The paper concentrates on the inference engine of Object Oriented Web Information Specification (OOWIS), and attempts to integrate GOPT-resolution which is a derivation mechanism based on partial intersection and truncation ...

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) one of the critical issues is the mazimization of their life time. These networks require a robust architecture that takes into account the energy consumption level of functional contituents ...

The major attraction of the next generation wireless systems such as the third generation partnership project (3GPP) Long Term Evolution (LTE) is the availability of high data-rate video services at high user velocities. ...

Network access control using face recognuton increases the user-friendliness in mobile phones and human-computer interaction. In order to realize a real time system implemented on handheld devices with low computing ...

Maintenance and maintenance-management are getting more sophisticated and their performance enhancement can be achieved by the application of information and communication technologies. This paper presents a Computerized ...

This article develops a charging scheme that is simple and easily usable for the users and provides them with the incentives to use only the resources they need. This scheme is developed on the time-volume charging approach ...

A large number of thresholding methods exist. These methods perform differently in various image analysis problems where they are often used locally. They are not as effective globally. Global thresholding is a difficult ...
