Cell segmentation is an important element of automatic cell analysis. This paper proposes a method to extract the cell nuclei and the cell boundaries of touching cells in low contrast images. First, the contrast of the low ...

In order to support efficient data services on vehicular networks, we propose a Data-oriented Cluster-based Media Access Control Protocol (DCMAC). For Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS), the demand for data services ...

With the demand of 3G wireless network access is increasing, high performance Wide Band Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) transceivers are needed. Low Noise Amplifier (LNA) is the key component of WCDMA transceivers. ...

This paper investigates the effect of surface roughness on interconnect parasitics (RLC per unit length) and performance metrics, such as delay, energy-delay product, bandwidth density, insertion loss and attenuation ...

In this paper, the problem of diffraction of surface water waves by an undulating bed and a vertical barrier is examined. Here, two different barrier configurations are studied, namely, (i) a partially immersed barrier and ...

Dynamical systems can undergo critical transitions where the system suddenly shifts from one stable state to another at a critical threshold called the tipping point. The decrease in recovery rate to equilibrium (critical ...

A new multi-phase lattice hydrodynamic traffic flow model is proposed by considering the effect of multi-forward looking sites on a unidirectional highway. We examined the qualitative properties of proposed model through ...

Infrared thermographic techniques show their potential usage for non-destructive testing and evaluation of various materials due to their inherent capabilities such as whole field, non-contact, qualitative and ...

Duplication and dynamic voltage/frequency scaling (DVFS) creates an interesting trade-off for scheduling task graphs on multiprocessors to improve energy consumption and schedule length (or makespan). With DVFS, tasks ...

Magnetic nanofluids have enormous potential to improve thermal conductivity under the influence of magnetic fields. Magnetic field induced thermal transport capabilities of metallic magnetic nanoparticles viz. Fe, Ni and ...
