Market forces and an increasingly reliable world-wide communications network have made geographically distributed software engineering a reality. Global software development enables businesses to respond more easily and more quickly to global market opportunities and to improve product and service quality. One of the many potential benefits of global development is a reduction in development ti...

introduction: the nursing staff, compared to other professions, have less healthy work environment and always face a lot of job stress. the quality of the relationship between nurses and physicians has a significant impact on nurses. thus, the aim of the present study was to determine the correlation between job stress for nurses with professional communication between nurses and physicians. ma...

the intelligent transportation system (its) provides wireless and mobile communication between vehicles and infrastructure to improve the safety of transportation and make the journey more enjoyable. this system consists of many fixed and mobile nodes (vehicles, trains, vessels, air planes), wireless and wired telecommunication technologies to exchange information between mobile nodes or betwee...

In this report we focus on Jacobi like resolution of the eigen-problem for a real symmetric matrix from a parallel performance point of view: we try to optimize the algorithm working on the communication intensive part of the code. We discuss several parallel implementations and propose an implementation which overlaps the communications by the computations to reach a better eeciency. We show t...

The theoretical foundations of Taguchi Methods were laid out by Genichi Taguchi, a Japanese engineer who began working for the telecommunications company, ECL (Electrical Communications Lab, a part of NT&T), in 1950’s. After World War II, his team was involved in the design of telephone system components, and successfully produced designs that performed better than their main rivals, Bell Labs,...

IEEE 802.11 has captured the support of major wireless industry leaders. The growth and commercialization seen by the personal communications sector may be finally spilling over to the Wireless LAN sector, but I still remember the cold and stormy night back in 88 when I started working on a Wireless LAN at a start-up. That venture didn t work, but it did provide valuable insight into the proble...
