Electric vehicles (EVs) are an emerging type of mobile intelligent power consumption devices in Smart Grid as new green transport tools. In order to provide a powerful automation and intelligence support for wide area electric vehicles energy service network, we analyze the network infrastructure and communications demands of various terminals, devices and monitoring systems distributed in wide...

Cloud computing is a style of computing in which dynamically scalable and often virtualized resources are provided as a service over the Internet. To resolve the challenges caused by the increasing transportation issues, we present a novel multi-layered vehicular data cloud platform by using cloud computing and IoT technologies. Two innovative vehicular data cloud services such as an intelligen...

With the emergence of the response to climate change as a global agenda, UNFCCC member countries must report their Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and absorptions. With conventional carbon emission estimation methods such as the IPCC Guideline, however, it is impossible to measure reduction of carbon emissions by U-City services. Therefore, this study proposed estimating carbon emission reductio...

  Background: Musculoskeletal diseases are quite common among healthcare professionals including medical laboratory technicians. This cross-sectional study aimed to identify the prevalence of musculoskeletal symptoms and ergonomic risk factors in Indian medical laboratory technicians.   Materials and Methods: The study sample comprised of 130 male and female laboratory technicians ...

The growing interest in technicians’ workloads research is probably associated with the recent surge in competition. This was prompted by unprecedented technological development that triggers changes in customer tastes and preferences for industrial goods. In a quest for business improvement, this worldwide intense competition in industries has stimulated theories and practical frameworks that ...

We propose a dissemination system using multiple roadside units (RSUs) on a two-way roadway. To enhance the performance of data services, data items are disseminated through a hybrid of infrastructure-to-vehicle (I2V) and vehicle-to-vehicle (V2V) communications. Unserved requests in RSU’s coverage are transferred to the next RSU located in a vehicle’s trajectory. In this way, channels are utili...
