in this paper, we propose a new full-fuzzy video ratecontrol algorithm (rca) for variable bit rate (vbr) videoapplications. the proposed rca provides high qualitycompressed video with a low degree computational complexity.by controlling the quantization parameter (qp) on a picturebasis, it produces vbr video bit streams. the proposed rcahas been implemented on the jm h.264/avc video codec andth...

direct yaw moment control systems (dyc) can maintain the vehicle in the driver’s desired path by distributing the asymmetric longitudinal forces and the generation of the control yaw moment (cym). in order to achieve the superior control performance, intelligent usage of lateral forces is also required. the lateral wheel forces have an indirect effect on the cym and based upon their directions,...

rate allocation has become a demanding task in data networks as diversity in users and traffics proliferate. most commonly used algorithm in end hosts is tcp. this is a loss based scheme therefore it exhibits oscillatory behavior which reduces network performance. moreover, since the price for all sessions is based on the aggregate throughput, losses that are caused by tcp affect other sessions...

to study the effects of plant density and nitrogen rates on the ability of canola (regent  cobra; an inbred variety) to compete with weeds, an experiment was conducted as a factorial complete block design with four replications. the treatments included four levels of plant density at 150, 190, 230, and 270 plants m-2, and four levels of nitrogen (n) fertil-izer at 0, 46, 92, and 138 kg ha–1. r...
