ad hoc networks are multi-hop wireless networks without a pre-installed infrastructure. such networks are widely used in military applications and in emergency situations as they permit the establishment of a communication network at very short notice with a very low cost. video is very sensitive for packet loss and wireless ad-hoc networks are error prone due to node mobility and weak links. h...

A novel buffering method is presented to improve the stability of zinc oxide processed in aqueous solutions. By buffering the aqueous solution with a suitable quantity of sacrificial zinc species, the dissolution offunctional zinc oxide structures and' the formation of unwanted impurities can be prevented. The method is demonstrated for ZnO films and nanowires processed in aqueous solutions use...

As VLSI technology moves to the nanoscale regime, ultra-fast slew buffering techniques considering buffer cost minimization are highly desirable. The existing technique proposed in [S. Hu, C. Alpert, J. Hu, S. Karandikar, Z. Li, W. Shi, C.-N. Sze, Fast algorithms for slew constrained minimum cost buffering, IEEE Transactions on Computer-Aided Design of Integrated Circuits and Systems 26 (11) (2...

This paper proposes an energy optimization technique for latency and quality constrained video applications. It consists of two key techniques: frame-skipping technique and buffering technique. While buffering increases the slack time utilization at the OS level, frame skipping increases the slack time itself at the application level, and both enhance the effectiveness of the DVS technique. We ...

In this paper we propose a multi-set modulation technique to increase the hiding capacity within a binary document image. As part of this technique we propose an Automatic Threshold Calculation and Threshold Buffering, Shifted Space Distribution and Letter Space Compensation technique. The Automatic Threshold Calculation is used to distinguish word spaces from letter spaces. The Threshold Buffe...

Abstract Measuring the consumption of electronic devices is a difficult and sensitive task. Data acquisition (DAQ) systems are often used to determine such consumption. In theory, measuring energy straight forward, just by acquiring current voltage signals we can However, number issues arise when fine analysis required. The main problem that sampling frequencies have be high enough detect varia...
