Device-transparent personal storage

Users increasingly store data collections such as digital photographs on multiple personal devices, each of which typically presents the user with a storage management interface isolated from the contents of all other devices. The result is that collections easily become disorganized and drift out of sync. This thesis presents Eyo, a novel personal storage system that provides device transparen...

Eyo: Device-Transparent Personal Storage

Users increasingly store data collections such as digital photographs on multiple personal devices, each of which typically offers a storagemanagement interface oblivious to the contents of the user’s other devices. As a result, collections become disorganized and drift out of sync. This paper presents Eyo, a novel personal storage system that provides device transparency: a user can think in t...

Ultrasound-assisted wound debridement device

Debridement takes away nonvascularised tissue and cells that may obstruct wound contraction, the formation of granulation tissue and the migration of epithelial cells from the wound edge (Falanga, 2000) to create This article describes a new type of mechanical debridement that uses lowfrequency ultrasound technology, and presents case reports that highlight the use of the Sonoca® (Soring) ultra...

Optimization of Multibit Watermarking

This Chapter presents a Multibit Improved Spread Spectrum modulation (MISS) by properly adjusting the energy of the pseudo random sequences modulated by Code Division (CDM). We extend the one-bit spread spectrum watermarking approach proposed by Henrique S. Malvar and Dinei A. F. Florencio (2003) to multibit watermarking by using an optimization procedure to achieve the best performance possibl...
