The objective of this paper is to provide a new simulator framework for mobile WSN that emulate a sensor node at a laptop i.e. the laptop will model and replace a sensor node within a network. This platform can implement di?erent WSN routing protocols to simulate and validate new developed protocols in terms of energy…

To implement a new secure network with high mobility and low energy consumption, we use smart sensors. These sensors are powered by micro batteries generally non rechargeable. So, to extend their lifetime, it is necessary to implement new energy conservation techniques. Existing works separate the two features (security, energy conservation) and are interested specifically in…

The implemented programs in the MapReduce processing model are focused in the analysis of large volume of data in a distributed and parallel architecture. This architecture is automatically managed by the framework, so the developer could be focused in the program functionality regardless of infrastructure failures or resource allocation. However, the infrastructure state can cause…

Sensors for collecting 3D spatial data from the real world are becoming more important. They are a prime research area topic and have applications in consumer markets, such as medical, entertainment, and robotics. However, a primary concern with collecting this data is the vast amount of information being generated, and thus, needing to be processed…

Mobile devices are differed from desktop based systems in terms of particular execution environment, constrained resources, and high mobility requirement. To overcome these shortcomings, various agile based methodologies are developed for native mobile applications such as Mobile-D, Scrum etc. These agile techniques are based on various phases and these phases begin from exploring, initializing and…

Optical imaging systems or cameras have a convex lens with limited depth of field. So, multi-focus images are obtained when such systems are used to capture an image of a particular scene. These images are fused to get all-in-focus image. This paper proposes a new simpler method of multi-focus image fusion. Instead of decomposing input…
