China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC): A Threat to India’s Border Security

Feasibility of building a solar power plant on the Iran-Pakistan border and economic advantages for exporting electricity to Pakistan

Pakistan, with its large size and large population, is a target market for the export of goods and services. The existence of many borders between this country and Sistan and Baluchistan province in Iran is a suitable competitive advantage for the country. Also, the lack of proper relations with another neighboring country, India, as well as the unstable situation of Afghanistan, another neighb...

Differential Power Analysis: A Serious Threat to FPGA Security

Differential Power Analysis (DPA) implies measuring the supply current of a cipher-circuit in an attempt to uncover part of a cipher key. Cryptographic security gets compromised if the current waveforms obtained correlate with those from a hypothetical power model of the circuit. As FPGAs are becoming integral parts of embedded systems and increasingly popular for cryptographic applications and...

Impact of the China Pakistan Economic Corridor on snow cover and glaciers in the Himalayan, Karakorum, and Hindukush region

Comparison of the Economic Profitability of a Conventional Freight-Dedicated Railway Corridor and a Heavy Load Freight Corridor

By using mathematical models, this paper will compare the economic profitability of a heavy load freight corridor (30 t per axle) with a conventional freight-dedicated railway corridor (22.5 t per axle). This comparison concerns the construction and operation of a new, single-track of normal gauge, exclusively for freight traffic, and takes into account various demand values of freight volume (...
