Identity management (IdM) systems are information systems that help to manage an individual’s credentials. This occurs through the establishment, description, maintenance, and eventual destruction of an identity. There are numerous IdM systems in place today that follow a general framework, yet provide users of the system with different solutions. This chapter will present architecture and appl...

Intelligent vehicles are an active area of research, with significant contributions being made in sensing, control, and information processing. Advances in the field have the potential to improve safety, reduce risk of injury, and save lives. The focus of this research deals with the challenges of utilizing data from cameras looking out of the vehicle, monitoring the driving environment. We pro...

Driver gaze has been shown to be an excellent surrogate for driver attention in intelligent vehicles. With the recent surge of highly autonomous vehicles, driver gaze can be useful for determining the handoff time to a human driver. While there has been significant improvement in personalized driver gaze zone estimation systems, a generalized system which is invariant to different subjects, per...

intelligent wells provide the ability for monitoring and control of downhole environment of the wells. downhole monitoring is achieved through sensors while control is realized with downhole valves. recovery from intelligent wells can be improved by proper selection of candidate wells/fields and optimizing the number, location and performance of the installed interval control valves. design cri...

The DFM (design for manufacturing) methods are used during technology alignment and adoption processes in the semiconductor industry (SI) for manufacturability and yield assessments. These methods have worked well till 250nm technology for the transformation of systematic variations into rules and/or models based on the single-source data analyses, but beyond this technology they have turned in...

Driver behavior impacts traffic safety, fuel/energy consumption and gas emissions. Driver behavior profiling tries to understand and positively impact driver behavior. Usually driver behavior profiling tasks involve automated collection of driving data and application of computer models to generate a classification that characterizes the driver aggressiveness profile. Different sensors and clas...

The article argues for a shift of perspective in identity management (IDM) research and development. Accessibility and usability issues affect identity management to such an extent that they demand a reframing and reformulation of basic designs and requirements of modern identity management systems. The rationale for the traditional design of identity management systems and mechanisms has been ...

A microscopic traffic model is presented which employs differences in velocity to characterize driver behavior. The Intelligent Driver (ID) based on an acceleration constant cannot capture different conditions. Further, it not physics and so can produce inaccurate results. proposed improved ID both are evaluated a 2000 m circular road. results obtained show that the appropriately flow density. ...

background: infants of diabetic mothers (idm) is a critical issue in pediatrics, which is regarded as a major risk factor for birth trauma, respiratory distress syndrome (rds), birth asphyxia, transient tachypnea of the newborn (ttn) and jaundice. idm is also a risk factor for microvascular (e.g., ocular and renal complications) and macrovascular complications (e.g., cerebrovascular accident, a...
