In mining, Fleet Management Systems (FMS) are useful tools for reporting and improving mine efficiency, though comprehensive FMS are expensive to install and maintain. This paper examines an alternative method using a particle filter algorithm to localise a fleet of haul trucks in a mine, providing most of the functionality of a complete FMS without the expensive hardware and installation. Most...

Background: Careers and the family are considered the most important aspects of adult life, which affect a couplechr('39')s mental health. The present study aimed to investigate the effectiveness of emotion-focused couple therapy on improving optimism and communication patterns among couples working at state offices of the Ramhormoz County. Materials and Methods: The research method was experi...

Compared to buses Networks-on-chip have a relative area and delay overhead. These can be reduced in application specific systems where heterogeneous communication infrastructure provide high bandwidth in a localized fashion and reduce underutilized resources. For general purpose systems, design time techniques are not efficient. One important technique for improving area and/or performance of N...

The paper presents an approach for examining and improving organizational readiness for enterprise information systems implementation. The main benefits are given by the architectural framework of different views of the information systems from the activity perspectives (substantial, communication, control; informal, formal, technical) with the same structure as the organization. Social norms a...

Advances in the technologies of networking, wireless communication and trimness of computers lead to the rapid development in mobile communication infrastructure, and have drastically changed information processing on mobile devices. Users carrying portable devices can freely move around, while still connected to the network. This provides flexibility in accessing information anywhere at any ti...

Software requirements engineering produces several different artifacts. In order to cope with all requirements contained in these artifacts, they must be kept in a single place. Today, usually this place is a document or a simple list of requirement statements. A modelling infrastructure for the integration of requirements in models is a new way of keeping and managing requirements in a model-c...
