We use K∗ n to denote the bidirected complete graph on n vertices. A nomadic Hamiltonian decomposition of K∗ n is a Hamiltonian decomposition, with the additional property that “nomads” walk along the Hamiltonian cycles (moving one vertex per time step) without colliding. A nomadic near-Hamiltonian decomposition is defined similarly, except that the cycles in the decomposition have length n − 1...

Intelligence on mobile threats is a valuable asset. Honeypots showed to provide a good resource to gain threat intelligence in other areas. Unfortunately, current malware largely relies on social engineering to infect smartphones. Recently, attacks against smartphones have shifted towards local communication interfaces. These trends make traditional honeypot concepts unsuitable. We propose a no...

This paper presents LightPeers – a new mobile P2P framework specifically tailored for use in a nomadic learning environment. A set of key requirements for the framework is identified based on nomadic learning, and these requirements are used as outset for designing and implementing the architecture and protocols. The main contributions of the LightPeers framework are: a mobile P2P framework inc...

introduction accidents are the second leading cause of disabilities; a problem that causes physical and psychological disorders, and in more severe cases, death. the risks should be identified to suggest the best way to confront and eliminate them. therefore, this study reviews the prevalence and types of accidents among ethnic nomads. materials and methods the current research is a descriptive...

During the last decade, a number of research activities have been performed to enable user interfaces and the underlying user activities to be migrated from one device to another. We call this “Nomadic User Interfaces”. The primary goal of these research activities has been to develop the technologies to enable this. However, not much is known about the usability aspects of Nomadic User Interfa...

The paper describes a nomadic guide that considers the context of use (CoU) for information selection and presentation. A nomadic system is defined by continuous access to information spaces independent from specific devices. The CoU is defined by the location and characteristics of the user. Interests of the user deduced from the navigation in the physical and information space are the main go...

the akhal-teke is an ancient horse originat-ing from asia where it was used by nomadic tribes and used as a warhorse. lameness examinations require proper interpretation of clinical and radiographic findings. therefore, understanding of normal radiographic findings of the foot is necessary. although the radiographic appearance of the normal foot must be understood to recognize abnormalities ,th...

Nomadic pastoralists of the African Sahel, the high steppes of central Asia (including the Tibetan Plateau and Mongolia), parts of the Near and Middle East, the Arabian Peninsula and India use mobility to manage uncertainty and risk in arid and semiarid ecosystems (Scoones 1994). In these areas, livelihoods are threatened by drought, diseases, insects and war, among other calamities. Semiarid p...

Nomadic computing using powerful portable systems has entered the mainstream of computing due to the recent progress in terms of performance and usability of the necessary hardware. However, most of these systems are still being used stand-alone with almost no provision for management support in the home as well as in the visited domain. This complicates connguration by forcing manual intervent...
