Poverty rates are highest in the most urban and most rural areas of the United States, and are higher in non-metropolitan (nonmetro) than metropolitan (metro) areas, yet rural poverty remains relatively obscured from mainstream political and popular attention. This fact has motivated considerable research by rural social scientists on the relationship between poverty and place generally, and ru...

This white paper describes the performance characteristics, metrics, and testing considerations for EMC VPLEX family of products. Its intent is to refine performance expectations, to review key planning considerations, and to describe testing best practices for VPLEX Local, Metro and Geo. This paper is not suitable for planning for exceptional situations. In configuring for performance, every e...

This paper outlines some of the capabilities of the TinmithMetro modelling system, based on mobile outdoor augmented reality technology. This system implements a new user interface based on tracked pinch gloves and a series of techniques named construction at a distance for the capture and creation of 3D geometry. The user controls the modelling process using hand and head motions, with modelli...

Nowadays, when we are living in the age of information, communication, and technology, thanks to Internet, boundaries communication have disappeared, it has become quite easy access information documents all over world. The graphic design advertising sectors been affected by these developments, which referred as digital revolution. As a result this effect, carried out computer-aided for last 30...

P systems are branch of bio-inspired computing, which takes inspiration from the structure and functioning of a living cell. Current research of P systems focuses mainly on their computational power, applications include biochemical and ecological modeling. In this paper we propose model of passenger flow in metro based on P systems. This model focuses on detailed description of passenger behav...

Motion Detection and Segmentation in Dynamic Video Backgrounds Vivek Arya Amity University Haryana __________________________________________________________________________________________ Abstract--Nowadays roads are getting overcrowded, especially in metro cities. Hence the main aim of proposed research is to build a traffic monitoring system which replace or reduce the human monitoring syst...

This paper presents a new tool, Metro, designed t o c ompensate for a deeciency in many simpliication methods proposed in literature. Metro allows one to compare the diierence b etween a pair of surfaces e.g. a triangulated mesh and its simpliied r epresentation by adopting a surface sampling approach. It has been designed as a highly general tool, and it does no assuption on the particular app...

The platform-based design methodology [1] is based on the usage of formal modeling techniques, clearly defined abstraction levels and the separation of concerns to enable an effective design process. The METROPOLIS framework embodies the platform-based design methodology and has been applied to a number of case studies across multiple domains. Based on these experiences, we have identified thre...

Template semantics is a template-based approach to ease the process of identifying the essential differences among model-based notations. In this approach, a template captures semantics that are common among notations and allows users to specify only the distinctive features of a notation. In this paper, we illustrate the method of describing requirements in Software Cost Reduction (SCR) using ...
