This paper introduces a self-configuring middleware that manages the processes of context information acquisition and representation from smart closed environments, targeting the development of context aware applications. The environment context informati... see more

Intrusion detection is used to monitor and capture intrusions into computer and network systems which attempt to compromise their security. Many intrusions manifest in changes in the intensity of events occuring in computer networks. Because of the abilit... see more

Who is the "good scientist" in rural-environmental policy? This is not so self-evident as in the case of private high-tech industry. Developing e-learning system in environmental science management is a challenging task in the area of forest and general r... see more

Poor control of steam generator water level is the main cause of unexpected shutdowns in nuclear power plants. Particularly at low powers, it is a difficult task due to shrink and swell phenomena and flow measurement errors. In addition, the steam generat... see more

In this paper, we present an improvement non-parametric background modeling and foreground segmentation. This method is important; it gives the hand to check many states kept by each background pixel. In other words, generates the historic for each pixel,... see more

Time-series statistical pattern recognition is of prime importance in statistics, especially in quality control techniques for manufacturing processes. A frequent problem in this application is the complexity when trying to determine the behaviour (patter... see more

Inspired from the fact that the real world ants from within a colony are not clones (although they may look alike, they are different from one another), in this paper, the authors are presenting an adapted ant colony optimisation (ACO) algorithm that inco... see more

Although P systems are computationally complete, many real world models, such as socio-economic systems, databases, operating systems and distributed systems, seem to require more expressive power than provided by tree structures. Many such systems have a... see more

Although P systems are distributed parallel computing devices, no explicit way of handling the input in a distributed way in this framework was considered so far. This note proposes a distributed architecture (based on cell-like P systems, with their skin... see more

There are several essential activities that need to take place in any service-oriented environment such as: a Web service has to be created, to have its interfaces and invocation methods defined, its service has to be published to one or more intranet or ... see more
