System energy models are important for energy optimization and management in mobile systems. However, existing system energy models are built in lab with the help from a second computer. Not only are they labor-intensive; but also they will not adequately account for the great diversity

Abstract—One of the most distinguishing features of vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs) is the increased mobility of the nodes. This results in the existence of transient communication links, which degrade the performance of developed protocols. Established routes frequently become invalid

to consider the movement direction, current and future location, cache invalidation and optimized prefetching for mobile clients when performing cache replace-ment. This paper proposes a Neural Network based Mobility aware Prefetch Caching and Replacement policy (NNMPCR) in Mobile Environment to manage LBS

After a pre-study in the year 2001-2002 financed by VINNOVA1, a prototype based on the Activity Theory model was constructed to demonstrate the usability of mobile IT in mobile healthcare. The prototype was developed in PHP on Apache and deployed on a Microsoft Windows Server 2000 computer, which

YY1 binding motif. Constructs with point mutations in the putative YY1 binding motif showed increased reporter activity, indicating that YY1 negatively regulates loricrin gene transcription. Co-transfection experiments using a YY1 expression vector revealed that YY1 represses loricrin promoter

to be readdressed. We propose various optimization techniques at different architectural levels. We finally propose a service oriented system architecture aiming for a mobile reporting solution, which deals with all contradicting aspects stemming from the inherent shortcomings of mobile devices and the advanced

We design and implement dynamic symmetric searchable encryption schemes that efficiently and privately search server-held encrypted databases with tens of billions of record-keyword pairs. Our basic theoretical construction supports single-keyword searches and offers asymptotically optimal server

This thesis presents CraneTracker, a multi-modal sensing and communication system for monitoring migratory species at the continental level. By exploiting the robust and extensive cellular infrastructure across the continent, traditional mobile wireless sensor networks can be extended to enable

the business planning and decision making. Many works have been proposed in this field, They intend optimizing the DW utilization. The Centralized data warehouse is very expensive because CDW responds the needs of several separate business units simultaneously by using a single data model and a unique database

Recent work has shown that invalidation report (IR) based cache management is an attractive approach for mobile environments. To improve the cache hit ratio of IR-based approach, clients should proactively prefetch the data that are most likely used in the future. Although prefetching can make
