High throughput intracellular delivery strategies, electroporation, passive and TATHA2 facilitated diffusion of colloidal silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) are investigated for cellular toxicity and uptake using state-of-art analytical techniques. The TATHA2 facilitated approach efficiently delivered high payload with no toxicity, pre-requisites for intracellular applications of plasmonic metal nano...

The ability to precisely emplace stand-alone payloads in hostile territory has long been on the wish list of US warfighters. This type of activity is one of the main functions of special operation forces, often conducted at great danger. Such risk can be mitigated by transitioning the manual placement of payloads over to an automated placement mechanism by the use of the Automatic Payload Deplo...

We address the problem of cooperative transportation of a cable-suspended payload by multiple quadrotors. In previous work, quasi-static models have been used to study this problem. However, these approaches are severely limited because they ignore the payload dynamics, and do not explicitly model the underactuation in the control problem. Thus, there are no guarantees on the payload trajectory...

Intrusion Detection Systems (IDS) are valuable tools for the defense-in-depth of computer networks. Network IDS look for known or potential malicious activities in network traffic and raise an alarm whenever a suspicious activity is detected. Two main approaches to intrusion detection are used, namely misuse and anomaly detection [10]. Misuse detectors are based on a description of known malici...

1 Launch loads, both mechanical and acoustic, are the prime driver of spacecraft structural design. Passive approaches for acoustic attenuation are limited in their low frequency effectiveness by constraints on total fairing mass and payload volume constraints. Active control offers an attractive approach for low frequency acoustic noise attenuation inside the payload fairing. Smart materials s...

H S Manjunatha Reddy, K B Raja Abstract— Steganography is the method of hiding the secrete message in a cover object for covert communication. In this paper we propose Steganography based on Adaptive embedding of Encrypted Payload in Wavelet domain (SAEPW). The LWT2 (dB2) is applied on cover image and only XD band is considered for embedding. The XD band is further decomposed into three blocks ...

This document specifies a Real-time Transport Protocol (RTP) payload format to be used for Adaptive Multi-Rate (AMR) and Adaptive MultiRate Wideband (AMR-WB) encoded speech signals. The payload format is designed to be able to interoperate with existing AMR and AMR-WB transport formats on non-IP networks. In addition, a file format is specified for transport of AMR and AMR-WB speech data in sto...
