MeVisLab is a research and rapid prototyping platform for medical image processing developed by MeVis Medical Solutions AG and Fraunhofer MEVIS. We present an object-oriented approach for developing applications using MeVisLab and Python. Our approach simplifies the development of scripting intensive and complex applications for medical image processing. The program flow becomes clearer and the...

in this paper, we consider a cooperative cognitive radio network in which there is an ofdm primary link and multiple single carrier secondary links.the primary link is required to maintain its secrecy rate above a predefined threshold. if the secrecy rate requirement is not satisfied, the secondary system help primary link to maintain its secrecy rate requirement. in doing so, the secondary trans...
