Improvements of Energy-Efficient Techniques in WSNs: A MAC-Protocol Approach
(IEEE, 10/12/2018)
The pervasiveness of wireless sensor networks (WSNs) across different applications keeps increasing due to their versatility, although energy consumption is a huge constraint for these types of networks. Therefore, it is ...
Optical router for optical fiber sensor networks based on a liquid crystal cell
(09/04/2003)
Optical fiber sensor networks are evolving rapidly. They are used because of the inert nature of optical fibers allowing no electromagnetic interference and safe applications in inflammable atmospheres; other relevant ...
idMAS-SQL: Intrusion Detection Based on MAS to Detect and Block SQL injection through data mining
(05/10/2013)
This study presents a multiagent architecture aimed at detecting SQL injection attacks, which are one of the most prevalent threats for modern databases. The proposed architecture is based on a hierarchical and distributed ...
High-Resolution Indirect Feet–Ground Interaction Measurement for Hydraulic-Legged Robots
(10/01/2009)
Feet-ground interactions influence the legged robot's stability. In this paper, a high-resolution indirect force measurement for hydraulic-legged robots is presented. The use of pressure transducers placed at one or both ...
Identification technologies to support Alzheimer contexts
(07/16/2008)
Alzheimer's disease makes great demands on care by assistants, due to the fact that they cannot distract their attention from patients while they are at the same time managing records. For that reason, technologies to ...
Mobile Physical Rehabilitation of Patients through Intelligence Devices
(8th International Conference, UCAmI 2014, Belfast, UK, December 2-5, 2014. Proceedings, 12/02/2014)
That develop solutions that facilitate the development of therapy from home are a compelling factor in our social environment. In our country mobile technology is important as a support tool in the rehabilitation of people. ...
A view on the use of ICT in SMEs in Panama
(07/30/2015)
The gradual integration of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) in the economic activity will allow Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in particular to gain competitive advantages, to improve their processes ...
The mental health continuum-short form: The structure and application for cross-cultural studies–A 38 nation study
(06/30/2018)
Objective
The Mental Health Continuum-Short Form (MHC-SF) is a brief scale measuring positive human functioning. The study aimed to examine the factor structure and to explore the cross-cultural utility of the MHC-SF using ...
Modelling the degradation process of lithium-ion batteries when operating at erratic state-of-charge swing ranges
(2017 4th International Conference on Control, Decision and Information Technologies (CoDIT), 11/09/2017)
Manufacturers of lithium-ion batteries inform capacity degradation for regular, symmetrical charge/discharge cycles, which is clearly problematic in real life applications where charge/discharge cycles are hardly regular. ...
Frame retransmission using a modified VST-TDMA access protocol in Picocell/WPAN
(2017 IEEE 9th Latin-American Conference on Communications (LATINCOM), 12/28/2017)
The VST-TDMA access protocol has shown to have many advantages over existing protocols in centralized (star) wireless network architectures. As most data-link layer protocols, it does not have a recovery feature as data ...
