Causality is omnipresent in scientists' verbalisations of their understanding, even though we have no formal consensual scientific definition for it. In Automata Networks, it suffices to say that automata "influence" one another to…
The perspective we take on a system determines the features and properties of this system that we are focusing on. It determines where we search for causes to explain the effects on the system that we observe. It determines the terms in…
In these days embedded system have an important role in different Fields and applications like Network embedded system , Real-time embedded systems which supports the mission-critical domains, mostly having the time constraints, Stand-alone…
We discuss how to efficiently forward data in vehicular networks. Existing solutions do not make full use of trajectory planning of nearby vehicles, or social attributes. The development of onboard navigation system provides drivers some…
COOJA is a network simulator developed for wireless sensor networks. It can be used for high-level algorithm development as well as low-level device driver implementations for accurate simulation of wireless sensor networks before…
What is computable with limited resources? How can we verify the correctness of computations? How to measure computational power with precision? Despite the immense scientific and engineering progress in computing, we still have only…
Energy and power consumption are major limitations to continued scaling of computing systems. Inexactness, where the quality of the solution can be traded for energy savings, has been proposed as an approach to overcoming those limitations.…
This paper presents a novel approach to distinguish driving styles with respect to their energy efficiency. A distinct property of our method is that it relies exclusively on Global Positioning System (GPS) logs of drivers. This setting is…
Accurate estimation of the confidence of an indoor localization system is crucial for a number of applications including crowd-sensing applications, map-matching services, and probabilistic location fusion techniques; all of which lead to…
In vivo wireless medical devices have a critical role in healthcare technologies due to their continuous health monitoring and noninvasive surgery capabilities. In order to fully exploit the potential of such devices, it is necessary to…
With the roll-out of smart meters the importance of effective non-intrusive load monitoring (NILM) techniques has risen rapidly. NILM estimates the power consumption of individual devices given their aggregate consumption. In this way, the…
Semantic Web of Things (SWoT) applications focus on providing a wide-scale interoperability that allows the sharing of IoT devices across domains and the reusing of available knowledge on the web. However, the application development is…
Excess freedom in how computers are used creates problems that include: bit rot, problems with big data, problems in the creation and debugging of software, and problems with cyber security. To tame excess freedom, "tough love" is needed in…
We propose {\delta}-MAPS, a method that analyzes spatio-temporal data to first identify the distinct spatial components of the underlying system, referred to as "domains", and second to infer the connections between them. A domain is a…
Knowledge Management (KM) is a strategic component that enables development, growth and continuous improvement of Public Sector Organizations (PSO). This thesis is bounded to this specific context. Indeed, we critically and comprehensively…
As an environment-friendly substitute for conventional fuel-powered vehicles, electric vehicles (EVs) and their components have been widely developed and deployed worldwide. The large-scale integration of EVs into power grid brings both…
In the past few years, the use of smartphones has increased exponentially, and so have the capabilities of such devices. Together with an increase in raw processing power, modern smartphones are equipped with a wide variety of sensors and…
In this paper we investigate the extent of Information Technology penetration in Power sector, taking KPCL, Karnataka Power Corporation Ltd., a premier power generating, a state owned public sector organization as an example. Any…
This paper presents a detailed study of the present VLSI technological aspects, importance and their replacement or combination with the Nanotechnology in the VLSI world of silicon semiconductors. Here authors bring out the nanotechnology…
The Directed Layering Problem (DLP) solves a step of the widely used layer-based approach to automatically draw directed acyclic graphs. To cater for cyclic graphs, usually a preprocessing step is used that solves the Feedback Arc Set…
