This paper presents an efficient technique for power allocation to the sensor nodes in a nonlinear sensor network (NSN). We minimize mean square error of the estimation of a random scalar parameter subject to a constraint ...

Safe exercise protocols are critical for effective rehabilitation programs. This paper aims to develop a novel control strategy for an automated treadmill system to reduce the danger of injury during cardiac rehabilitation. ...

The integration of diverse but complementary cellular and wireless technologies in the next generation of wireless communication systems requires the design of intelligent vertical handoff decision algorithms to enable ...

Flocculation alone and flocculation coupled with oxidation process were used for removing organic matter from biologically treated sewage effluent. The performances of different flocculants such as ferric sulphate, ferric ...

Pb exposure in wild crocodiles, as recorded in their dermal bones (osteoderms). Riverine habitats of the estuarine crocodile, Crocodylus porosus, in Kakadu National Park, northern Australia, have been exposed to anthropogenic ...

This paper presents a new method of stabilizing closed-loop systems, whereby instability warnings and overriding controls are performed. The system stability is maintained by having a separated agent, here called stabilizing ...

Despite the fact that timber is such a versatile construction material, during this last century it has significantly lagged behind developments in steel and concrete, particularly in Australia. Whilst use of timber in ...
