A GPU-Based Simulation of Tsunami Propagation and Inundation
Tsunami simulation consists of fluid dynamics, numerical computations, and visualization techniques. Nonlinear shallow water equations are often used... -
A Novel Adaptive Reclosure Criterion for HV Transmission Lines Based on Wavelet Packet Energy Entropy
A novel adaptive reclosure criterion based on energy entropy to identify faults for HV transmission lines is presented in the paper on the basis of... -
Shape Extraction through Region-Contour Stitching
We present a graph-based contour extraction algorithm for images with low contrast regions and faint contours. Our innovation consists of a new graph... -
Let’s Get It Started: Installing Ruby
Ruby is a popular programming language, but not many computers understand it by default. This chapter takes you through the steps necessary to get... -
Unbalanced Underground Distribution Systems Fault Detection and Section Estimation
This paper presents a novel fault detection and section estimation method for unbalanced underground distribution systems (UDS). The method proposed... -
The Maximum Solution Problem on Graphs
We study the complexity of the problem Max Sol which is a natural optimisation version of the graph homomorphism problem. Given a fixed target graph... -
Bestandsaufnahme realisierter mobiler IKT-Lösungen
Die folgende, bisher umfassendste Bestandsaufnahme realisierter mobiler Lösungen beruht auf eigenen empirischen Anwendungsstudien, auf im... -
Automatic Construction of a Japanese Onomatopoeic Dictionary Using Text Data on the WWW
As new onomatopoeic words are often created at short notice, existing dictionaries tend to have an insufficient number of their entries. Furthermore,... -
Competition for funding as an indicator of research competitiveness
Research quality is the cornerstone of modern science, it is used in the understanding of reputational differences among scientific and academic...

Secret Hiding Using Side Match Vector Quantization
Since side match vector quantization (SMVQ) provides better image quality of reconstructed image and compression bit rate than vector quantization... -
Installing and Deploying VMs on Enterprise Servers
Building on your knowledge of how to physically size and prepare enterprise-class servers from previous chapters, you should now feel comfortable... -
A Petri Net Model for Session Services
In this paper, the authors propose a new type of EPr/TN net system called SYNEPr/TN (SYNchro-Extended Predicate/Transition Net), which serves as an... -
A Dynamic Marking Scheme of Assured Service for Alleviating Unfairness among Service Level Agreements
Assured Service, which is a service model of the Internet Differentiated Services (DiffServ) architecture, is not currently well implemented on the... -

TER: A System for Robotic Tele-echography
The quality of ultrasound based diagnosis highly depends on the operator’s skills. Some healthcare centres may not have the required medical experts... -
Car-Parrinello Density Functional Calculations of the Bond Rupture Process of Thiolate on Gold in AFM Measurements: Progress and First Results
Recently, direct measurements of the forces related to the rupture of a single thiolate-gold bond have been reported [1]. However, the mechanism of... -
Computing Discrete Logarithms in Quadratic Orders
We present efficient algorithms for computing discrete logarithms in the class group of a quadratic order and for principality testing in a real...

On Adding a Query Language to a Persistent Object System
Object oriented programming languages as well as persistent object systems are usually accessed by explicit navigation along the relations (i.e. the... -
Hierarchical Framework for Facial Expression Recognition
In recent years, much work on the recognition of facial expression, and the recognition of face and the methods are various. The algorithm for... -
Integrating Models of Personality and Emotions into Lifelike Characters
A growing number of research projects in academia and industry have recently started to develop lifelike agents as a new metaphor for highly...
