This paper has explored the technology beliefs of university students considering four parameters. We have proposed an automatic belief identification system for academic institutions. For this, we used two different clustering algorithms to segment the student group with different beliefs about the technology. In the Hierarchical Clustering (HC), the Agglomerative approach was followed. The beliefs…

Analytical researches on a potential performance of multipath multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems inspire the development of new technologies that decompose a MIMO channel into independent sub-channels on the condition of constrained transmit power. Moreover, in current studies of inter-symbol interference (ISI) MIMO systems, there is an assumption that channel state information (CSI) at receivers and/or…

Over time, several routing protocols have been suggested for use in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs). Because of availability of so many MANETs routing protocols, network engineers and administrators face difficulties in identifying an appropriate routing protocol for a particular scenario. This challenge results from the unavailability of adequate technical analytic studies designed to examine…

Currently, there is a growing interest for applying gamification in e-learning due to innovations in technologies and pedagogies.
