Aquifer Delineation Using the Tempest AEM System

Investigation of the management scenarios for the aquifer recovery using mathematical modeling (Case study: Abarkuh aquifer)

Ground waters are considered as substantial water resources in many parts of the world especially in arid and semi-arid area such as Iran. The population growth, the intensive use ofsurface water and groundwater resources has often affected ground water levels. To meeting water management objectives it is essential to have a comprehensive study on the aquifer recharge and ground water withdrawa...

The AEM Authenticated-Encryption Mode

This note specifies AEM, a mode of operation giving authenticated encryption. AEM is a refinement to Rogaway, Bellare, and Black’s OCB mode [10], while OCB was, in turn, a refinement to Jutla’s IAPM [5]. AEM is also a successor to the work of Gligor and Donescu’s [4] and to the broader line of research that has defined and investigated authenticated encryption [1, 2, 6–8]. The acronym AEM stand...

Geo-electrical Resistivity Survey in the High Barind for the Delineation of Aquifer Geometry

Geo-electrical resistivity techniques have been employed in the High Barind as a reconnaissance investigation for the subsurface lithology. Out of 13 upazillas, comprising the Barind tract, Sapahar and Porsha Upazillas, situated in the High Barind are badly affected by water shortage. Vertical electrical soundings (VES) were executed using Schlumberger configuration in different areas taking th...

TEMPEST: A Text Input System for Musical Performers

Recently, due to the widespread use of computers, text-based communication methods, such as e-mail and chat, have attracted a great deal of attention. If pianists can apply their musical expressions to the text input, they can input texts with their own emotion richly. Therefore, the goal of our study is to construct TEMPEST (TExt input and Musical PErforming SysTem) that is a text input system...
