[1] The proposed Surface Water and Ocean Topography (SWOT) mission would provide measurements of water surface elevation (WSE) for characterization of storage change and discharge. River channel bathymetry is a significant source of uncertainty in estimating discharge from WSE measurements, however. In this paper, we demonstrate an ensemble-based data assimilation (DA) methodology for estimatin...

With current increased applications of web-based management systems, the number of fatalities occasioned by human error in industrial plants has significantly reduced. Distributed control system used in industries for monitoring and control techniques offers reprieve to plant managers by offsetting the number of threats to plant operations through early detections and interventions. Even though...

Semantic Web of Things (SWoT) applications focus on providing a wide-scale interoperability that allows the sharing of IoT devices across domains and the reusing of available knowledge on the web. However, the application development is difficult because developers have to do various tasks such as designing an application, annotating IoT data, interpreting data, and combining application domain...

Nowadays, Due to the accelerated environment changes and organizational decisions have become complex, the need for using strategic programs to face this kind of problems is more tangible. In this paper, at first, the most influential internal and external elements were detected with the help of the techniques of strategy formulation. Then having used the Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities an...

In recent years, the development of IOT (Internet of Things) technology has given people many ways to obtain information through various types of physical devices. In parallel with that trend, people rely more on context-aware service and devices in many aspects, such as health care and elderly home care. However, traditional sensors are typically locked into closed systems, which hinder the ac...

E-government has become an important phenomenon which attracted every country toward itself. However e-government is facing challenges which have significant effects on its performance. In order to overcome these challenges good strategies are inevitable for the e-government implementation. In this paper we analyzed Saudi Arabia's e-government using strengths, weaknesses, opportunities and...

BACKGROUND Blended learning (BL) in a cell biology course of the premedical program at the Kasturba Medical College International Centre, Manipal, India, commenced in 2006. The program provides training in basic sciences to students, especially from the United States and Canada. The approach to the study was phenomenographic, with a qualitative study design using an open-ended questionnaire, fo...

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a technological topic with a very important societal impact. IoT application domains are various, such as smart cities, precision farming, smart factories, smart buildings, etc, and the diversity of these application domains is the source of the very high technological heterogeneity in the IoT, leading to interoperability issues. The semantic web principles and t...

Abstract Despite the large amount of information, including books, articles and pristine images geotourism, there exists no comprehensive study on collection classification them in Iran yet. In this research, for modelling geosite watersheds, 1000 were surveyed through library research models with highest frequency use identified analysed among a statistical sample 451 local papers using Meta-A...
