routing in ad-hoc networks, specifically intelligent-based ones, is a highly interested research topic in recent years. most of them are simulation-based study. large percentages have not even mentioned some of the fundamental parameters. this strictly reduces their validity and reliability. on the other hand, there is not a comprehensive framework to classify routing algorithms in wireless sen...

BACKGROUND Health research capacity strengthening (RCS) projects are often complex and hard to evaluate. In order to inform health RCS evaluation efforts, we aimed to describe and compare key characteristics of existing health RCS evaluation frameworks: their process of development, purpose, target users, structure, content and coverage of important evaluation issues. A secondary objective was ...

JavaScript is today’s most common client-side programming language for the web. Choosing the most adapted framework for each and every project can optimize the development process and increase profits. Developers often lack knowledge about what to prioritize when choosing a framework and very little previous research regarding this subject area is available. This thesis investigates two JavaScr...

The evaluation of information systems (ISs), especially in the healthcare field, is a complex task. Evidently, there is a need for better understanding of the different aspects evaluation. While in the general IS science field there have been several attempts to build frameworks and models to better understand the evaluation of ISs, in healthcare similar frameworks have been almost nonexistent....

The number of threats to computers attached to networks continually increases. The focus of preventing security exploits has been on the network, while local exploits has been mostly overlooked. Many security problems in Unix systems stem from the way security is managed; by delegating all security decisions to object owners. There are a number of security frameworks which aim to remedy this in...

Our previous research focused on reducing continuous monitoring overhead by employing architectural design that performs adaptive monitoring. In this paper we explore the use of other AOP or AOP-like tools for instrumentation. The goal is to find a tool that has lower overhead than AspectJ. Support for runtime changes of monitoring configuration is also considered. Our main topic of interest is...
