A Survey on Sensor Networks

by Lan F. Akyildiz, Welljan Su, Yogesh Sankarasubramaniam, Erdal Cayirci , 2002
"... Recent advancement in wireless communica- tions and electronics has enabled the develop- ment of low-cost sensor networks. The sensor networks can be used for various application areas (e.g., health, military, home). For different application areas, there are different technical issues that research ..."

APPLICATION AREAS

by Olga Kosheleva, Martine Ceberio
"... Abstract—We show that in many application areas including soft constraints reasonable requirements of scale-invariance lead to polynomial formulas for combining degrees (of certainty, of preference, etc.) ..."

Wide-area Internet traffic patterns and characteristics

by Kevin Thompson, Gregory J. Miller, Rick Wilder - IEEE NETWORK , 1997
"... The Internet is rapidly growing in number of users, traffic levels, and topological complexity. At the same time it is increasingly driven by economic competition. These developments render the characterization of network usage and workloads more difficult, and yet more critical. Few recent studies ..."

within the NSF-sponsored vBNS. This paper presents observations on the patterns and characteristics of wide-area Internet traffic, as recorded by MCI’s OC-3 traffic monitors. We report on measurements from two OC-3 trunks in MCI’s commercial Internet backbone over two time ranges (24-hour and 7-day

Scalable Application Layer Multicast

by Suman Banerjee, Bobby Bhattacharjee, Christopher Kommareddy , 2002
"... We describe a new scalable application-layer multicast protocol, specifically designed for low-bandwidth, data streaming applications with large receiver sets. Our scheme is based upon a hierarchical clustering of the application-layer multicast peers and can support a number of different data deliv ..."

Ontologies: Principles, methods and applications

by Mike Uschold, Michael Gruninger - KNOWLEDGE ENGINEERING REVIEW , 1996
"... This paper is intended to serve as a comprehensive introduction to the emerging field concerned with the design and use of ontologies. We observe that disparate backgrounds, languages, tools, and techniques are a major barrier to effective communication among people, organisations, and/or software s ..."

systems. We show how the development and implementation of an explicit account of a shared understanding (i.e. an `ontology') in a given subject area, can improve such communication, which in turn, can give rise to greater reuse and sharing, inter-operability, and more reliable software. After

Evolutionary Computing

by A. E. Eiben , M. Schoenauer , 2005
"... Evolutionary computing (EC) is an exciting development in Computer Science. It amounts to building, applying and studying algorithms based on the Darwinian principles of natural selection. In this paper we briefly introduce the main concepts behind evolutionary computing. We present the main compone ..."

A Survey of Computer Vision-Based Human Motion Capture

by Thomas B. Moeslund, Erik Granum - Computer Vision and Image Understanding , 2001
"... A comprehensive survey of computer vision-based human motion capture literature from the past two decades is presented. The focus is on a general overview based on a taxonomy of system functionalities, broken down into four processes: initialization, tracking, pose estimation, and recognition. Each ..."

number of general assumptions used in this research field are identified and the character of these assumptions indicates that the research field is still in an early stage of development. To evaluate the state of the art, the major application areas are identified and performances are analyzed in light

Image registration methods: a survey.

by Barbara Zitová , Jan Flusser , 2003
"... Abstract This paper aims to present a review of recent as well as classic image registration methods. Image registration is the process of overlaying images (two or more) of the same scene taken at different times, from different viewpoints, and/or by different sensors. The registration geometrical ..."
