The article presents a method for detecting an abnormal behavior of a network node based on the analysis by…

Acute Myocardial Infarction (Heart Attack), a Coronary Heart Disease (CHD) is one of the major killers worldwide. Around one thousand data has been collected from AMI patients, people are at risk of maybe a heart attack and individuals with the significant features closely related to heart attack. The sophistication in mobile technology, health care applications…

Our research deals with the single-vehicle routing problem (VRP) with multi-shift and fuzzy uncertainty. In such a problem, a company constantly uses one vehicle to serve demand over a scheduling period of different work shifts. Our issue relies on a routing problem in maintenance jobs, where a crew executes jobs in different sites. The crew…

Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Single Sign on (SSO) are two security concepts that are related to each other. IAM governs the user access in an organization whereas SSO facilitates the user by authenticating to one centralized application and not having to re-authenticate when trying to access other applications. This paper addresses the different…

In most industrial high-power applications, the brushless DC (BLDC) motor is connected to multi-level inverters specially the three-level NPC inverters (B12). Torque ripple is a critical issue in BLDC motor drives. Accordingly, minimizing the ripple produced in the torque is necessary to enhance the BLDC motor drive performances. This paper aims to develop two direct…

This paper is the extension of the work originally presented in 2nd International Conference on Man and Machine Interfacing (MAMI 2017) and the paper of Yue et al. The present study aims at observing the effect of various parameters on temperature distribution profiles at various environmental temperature, tissue thermal conductivities, metabolic rates, blood perfusion rates,…

Data deduplication technology is used to improve the spatial efficiency of cloud storage. This technology is used for storing data on a cloud and omitting data uploading if the data are already present. However, various security threats may occur during the deduplication process. These security threats include poison attacks and user identity exposure through ownership.…

There are more than 7billion people in the world where there are around 500 million people in the world who are denied from normal lifestyle due to physical and mental issue. It is completely fair to say that every person deserves to enjoy a normal lifestyle. While physically and mentally challenged people find suitable way…
