-The saying goes that if you can count, you can control. Addition is a fundamental operation for any digital system, digital signal processing or a control system. A fast and accurate operation of a digital system is greatly influenced by the performance of resident adders. In this regard, an efficient hybrid adder that combines a carry select adder and a ripple carry adder using QCA technology...

The di!culty in tracking a maneuvering target in the presence of false measurements arises from the uncertain origin of the measurements (as a result of the observation=detection process) and the uncertainty in the maneuvering command driving the state of the target. Conditional mean estimates of the target state require a computational cost which is exponential with the number of observations ...

A number of approaches have been developed to synthesize the CuInSe2 and CuInGaSe2 based thin film solar cells [1-6]. Due to large numbers of parameters involve in processing a solar cell such as the energy band gap of the back surface field, thickness of the emitter, interface density etc. It is a difficult task to scrutinize and control the effect of each variable on the performance of the so...

A statistical study of analysis results was made for lignite from the Fărcăşeşti area (Gorj County, Romania), exemplified for the eight characteristic properties, as moisture content (imbibitions and hygroscopic), volatile, density, sulfur, ash softening content, higher heating value and seam. Previously, the properties dependencies were investigate in pairs of two. In present study the propert...

This paper addresses “reflective” control for applications that use server resources from a shared cloud infrastructure opportunistically. In this approach, an external reflective controller launches application functions based on knowledge of what resources are available from the cloud, their cost, and their value to the application through time. As a driving example, we consider reflective co...

Automat i c and rapid network service restoration (self-healing) w h e n failures occur i s of increasing importance f o r network operations and managemen t as network speed and bandwidth increase.

In Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs), sensor nodes are developed densely. They have limit processing capability and low power resources. Thus, energy is one of most important constraints in these networks. In some applications of sensor networks, sensor nodes sense data from the environment periodically and transmit these data to sink node. In order to decrease energy consumption and so, increase...

IMGT/V-QUEST is the highly customized and integrated system for the standardized analysis of the immunoglobulin (IG) and T cell receptor (TR) rearranged nucleotide sequences. IMGT/V-QUEST identifies the variable (V), diversity (D) and joining (J) genes and alleles by alignment with the germline IG and TR gene and allele sequences of the IMGT reference directory. New functionalities were added t...

With increasing amount of 3D content there is huge amount of growth in past many years, the availability of 3D content is still below the normal size by that of its 2D corresponding closely to one another. To remove this distance many 2D to 3D image conversion techniques has been proposed. It is important to estimate relative depth map in a single view image fo r 2D to 3D image conversion techn...

A system that can process sensory information collected during telemanipulation tasks in order to automatically identify properties of the remote environment has many potential appli cations These include generating model based simulations for training operators in critical procedures and improving real time performance when time delays are large The research issues in volved in developing such...
