For many years, a lot of researches have been made to develop Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) that are based on integrated systems. The main objective is to help drivers. Hence, keeping them safe under different driving conditions. Visibility for drivers remains the biggest problem faced on the road in an atmosphere of fog. In…

As an emergent technology in Internet of Things (IoT), the ultimate target of fog computing is to provide a widely distributed computational resources and data repository closer to the network edge providing heterogeneous systems both in terms of software and hardware. The fog system must have the capability to deal with huge number of resources…

Cloud computing is an exceptional paradigm, which is facilitating the developments and utilization of resources over the internet. Fog computing operates at the edge of the network saving bandwidth, by not sending all information to the cloud, while edge computing does processing of data at the edge of the cloud. Edge computing reduces the distance…

Establishing an environment that allows for the quantitative evaluation of the ability of autonomous driving systems to respond to real-world adverse conditions is crucial to ensuring their safety and reliability. This study proposes a dynamic scenario-based simulation framework that simulates complex and sequential hazardous scenarios frequently encountered in actual road environments. The proposed scenarios are…

The purpose of this paper is to explore the feasibility and development trend of utilizing smart medical technology for chronic disease health management in older people in the context of ageing at home. As the ageing society intensifies, the elderly population faces multiple health challenges, especially the management of chronic diseases. This paper analyzes the…

After studying the aviation problems in Iraq, on one hand, and because Iraq has various weather characteristics due to its different terrains (i.e. mountains, plain fields, and deserts). We discussed these problems with pilots and aviation specialists, and came to the conclusion that the main offset faced is vision deficiency is foggy and dusty weather.…

The pre-reason of the Smolensk catastrophe was a dense fog. The pilots took three trials to find the proper way to airfield. Each case the tower communicated: you are on the curse and path. Pilots, however, resigned. In third critical trial the co-pilot prolonged the response second ring to 8 seconds and the engines could…

Location-based services have become increasingly prevalent with the advancement in the positioning capabilities of smart devices and their emergence in social networking. In order to acquire a service, users must submit their identity, query interest and location details to service providers. Such information shared by users are accumulated continuously, stored and analyzed in order to…

Over the past decades, huge efforts have been devoted for image enhancement under uncontrolled scene such as fog and haze. This work proposes Multi-stage de-hazing approach for improving the quality of hazy images. Four main stages are introduced, in our approach, to achieve an automated, efficient and robust de-hazy processing. The first two stages are…

This is a study on a confined masonry slender walls building in a high seismic area. The structure also contains frames, but the walls bear most of the gravity and seismic loads. The building will be used as a school. It will be built in Bucharest, Romania. It contains a ground floor and 2 stories…
