This paper presents a cost-effective and portable multibeam planar antenna system designed to enhance connectivity in Internet of Things (IoT) applications. IoT networks face challenges such as high energy consumption, i...

Assessing DEMs is a critical step in hydrological applications to reduce uncertainties. This study assesses the uncertainty level of using several DEM products by comparing the derivation of watershed morphometric inform...

Due to their promising properties, surface magneto plasmons have attracted great interests in the field of plasmonics recently. Apart from flexible modulation of the plasmonic properties by an external magnetic...

Zirconia (ZrO2) is of great importance as a support for systems where high ionic conductivity and mechanical stability are required. Doping/defects have a significant effect on the physical properties of this oxide by st...

The extremely high peak intensity associated with ultrashort pulse width of femtosecond laser allows us to induce nonlinear interaction such as multiphoton absorption and tunneling ionization with materials that are tran...

The clustering of small molecules implies the organization of a group of chemical structures into smaller subgroups with similar features. Clustering has important applications to sample chemical datasets or libraries in...

The thesis addresses the problem of automatic and dynamic tuning of parallel and distributed applications. Our objective is to help developers in the process of improving the application performance. The work presents a ...

Who uses requirements engineering and design methodologies besides the people who invented them? Are researchers -at least- actually trying to use them in real-world complex projects and not in "paper project"? In this p...

This essay is based on a previous “regression” testing knowledge, black box testing and user graphic interfaces testing. Besides, due to the fact that the testing life cycle is inside the software life cycle, the sug...

This book focuses on the various invasive and non-invasive techniques which can be used for the characterization of starch macromolecules along with, the various types of physical, chemical, and enzymatic modifications o...

Chitosan is increasingly used as an alternative to synthetic polymers due to its water solubility, biodegradability, and biological activity. In this work, chitosan samples from three suppliers were evaluated and charact...

Applying design patterns is considered a helpful technique for designing software systems. Patterns description, however, results not sufficiently precise providing a weak understanding and making it difficult to be cert...

Parallel/distributed programming is a complex task that requires a high degree of expertise to fulfill the expectations of high performance computation. The Master/Worker paradigm is one of the most commonly used because...
