The Use of Wavelet Transforms in Cruise Missile Early Detection

The present study examines the utility of a wavelet based scheme for cruise missile early detection by a submarine-towed sonar array. The physics of shock system interactions predicts a precursor underwater wave which may be exploited in early detection. An in-house fronttracking code provided by Los Alamos National Laboratory was used to simulate the flight of a supersonic projectile over wate...

Early User Participation in the Identification of Deployment Scenarios for “connected Cruise Control”

Connected Cruise Control (CCC) aims to improve throughput in dense commuter traffic on motorways by advising drivers on speed, headway and lane-use via a nomadic humanmachine interface. The advice is generated from a prediction of future traffic flow, based on actual traffic-loop data and is transmitted to the in-car platform via 3.5G communication. The systems advantage compared to Cooperative...

Gastroenteritis outbreaks on cruise ships: contributing factors and thresholds for early outbreak detection

When an increased number of acute gastroenteritis (AG) cases is detected among tourists staying at the same accommodation, outbreak management plans must be activated in a timely manner to prevent large outbreaks. Syndromic surveillance data collected between 1 January 2010 and 31 December 2013 by five seagoing cruise ships were analysed to identify attack rate thresholds for early outbreak det...
