In a context where data and computing services are moving to external specialized datacenters the manual management of these systems is becoming an issue. Human administrators have to deal with hardware resources optimization while meeting the users’ needs. In our approach we propose to reconfigure both a set of applications deployed in a datacenter (by adapting their behaviors using autonomic ...

Funding information National Science Foundation, Grant/Award Number: CNS-1247955, CNS-1247924; Wireless Engineering Research & Education Center (WEREC), Auburn University Abstract Femtocells are small, low-power cellular base stations with high potential for coverage extension and offloading voice and wireless data. In this paper, we study the problem of joint access control and spectrum resour...

Degraded insulating property of electric equipments will lead to serious accident and great loss for the utilities and customers. Partial discharge detection is an efficient diagnosis method to prevent the failure of electric equipments arising from degrading insulation. However, universal offline partial discharge detection could be performed only during shutdown of equipments. By using the pr...

The paper employs a case study methodology and uses performance-importance analysis to determine the information quality dimensions that affect the einnovation process. The selected case is a high technology organisation dealing with the design and manufacturing electronic equipments and tools used for medical test. The equipments designed by the organisation comprise components designed by oth...

The Internet technology has been developed in an open environment; all Internet related protocols, architectures and structures are publicly created and described. On the contrary, and in some sense quite surprising, most of the professional IP equipments are realized in a very “closed” way. Otherwise, in many cases, the “experimental” nature of Internet and its diffusion suggest in many contes...

The idea of femtocell have attracted lots of interest from the research community of wireless communication. Femtocells aim to increase the capacity and coverage area of the current cellular network by helping to reduce its actual cell size. However, new design challenges arise by randomly deploying the femtocells over the cellular network, hence a heterogeneous network. One of the main problem...

Computer and other digital electronic equipments can emit unintentional electromagnetic signals in the state of information processing. The compromising electromagnetic emanations allow eavesdroppers to reconstruct processed data at a distance that threatening the information security. As result all equipments handling confidential information do need TEMPEST security testing. This paper attemp...

Harmonic current pollution is a one of the major power quality problem in electrical power systems. In office buildings one of the main harmonic sources is a large numbers of computer loads. Especially, personal computers apply harmonic distortions to their power supply systems. In this study, harmonics models of equipments, a MATLAB ® code and single-phase Simulink simulation models are develo...
