In this paper, we establish some strong convergence results for Mann and Ishikawa iterative processes in a Banach space setting by employing some general contractive conditions as well as weakening further the conditions on the parameter sequence { n} ⊂ [0, 1]. In addition, in some of our results, we introduce some innovative ideas which make our results distinct from some previous ones. In par...

Maritime logistics is referred to as the process of planning, implementing, and managing the movement of goods and information which is involved in the ocean carriage. As a central component of global logistics systems, maritime operators such as shipping lines, port terminal operators and freight forwarders now have to perform both sea transport-related services and other related and wider log...

A novel mathematical framework inspired on Morse Theory for topological triangle characterization in 2D meshes is introduced that is useful for applications involving the creation of mesh models of objects whose geometry is not known a priori. The framework guarantees a precise control of topological changes introduced as a result of triangle insertion/removal operations and enables the definit...

Logistics operators are characterized by a high dynamics of an increase incomes, and hence increased shipping. Owing to rational policy in the area consolidation production distribution, they may boast better use means transport. The aim article is analyse promoted behaviours logistics Poland Ukraine. research methods used study include literature analysis, comparative analysis questionnaire su...

To entertain network users, service operators have released a number of innovative services and many new features for the basic services. However, their efforts still cannot greatly satisfy the network users because the network users would like to make the services to their own appetite instead of use the ones created by the service operators. Upon that, this research proposes to apply intellig...

Spectrummanagement based on private commons is argued to be a realistic scenario for cognitive radio deployment within the current mobile market structure. A scenario is proposed where a secondary entrant operator leases spectrum from a primary incumbent operator. The secondary operator innovates incorporating cognitive radio technology, and it competes in quality of service and price against t...

The introduction of deregulation in IDD service with effect from January 1999 triggered a round of extremely fierce competition in Hong Kong’s IDD market. In response, both the incumbent operator and the new entrants had to adopt aggressive strategies to defend or gain market share. This chapter reports on an intensive experiment of the quality of IDD services provided by the major IDD operator...

This article describes a user-centred method used to design innovative pattern recognition software for technical paper documents. This kind of software can make some errors of interpretation. It will therefore be important that human operators are able to identify and correct these mistakes. The identification of errors is a difficult task because operators need to establish co-reference betwe...

In this paper we investigate the design of highly parallel Genetic Algorithms. The Traveling Salesman Problem is used as a case study to evaluate and compare diierent implementations. To x the various parameters of Genetic Algorithms to the case study considered, the Holland sequential Genetic Algorithm, which adopts diierent population replacement methods and crossover operators, has been impl...

The realization of a user-centric paradigm in future telecommunication networks, which implies free and automatic choice among different available wireless and mobile access networks, will revolutionize the Future Internet. For this innovative concept to materialize, a paradigm shift is required from contract-based mobile service delivery to an open, dynamic service delivery environment. This c...
