(2015)
A major benefit of service composition is the ability to support agile global collaborative virtual organizations. However, being global in nature, collaborative virtual organizations can have several virtual industry ...
An Optimal Eigenvalue Based Spectrum Sensing Algorithm for Cognitive Radio
(2015)
Spectrum is a scarce resource, and licensed spectrum is intended to be used only by the spectrum owners.
Various measurements of spectrum utilization have shown unused resources in frequency, time and space.
Cognitive ...
Advanced manufacturing technology adoption in manufacturing companies in Kenya
(2015)
Over the past few decades, manufacturing has evolved from a more labor-intensive set of mechanical processes to a sophisticated
set of information based technology processes. With the existence of various advanced ...
Optimized Routing and Component Placement to Improve the Continuity And Uniformity of the PCBPIFL Antenna’s Co-Planar Ground Plane to Achieve an Overall Improved Antenna Performance
(2015)
A ground plane forms the other half for quarter wave PCB antennas. Integration of these type of
antennas with other components within the same PCB of a mobile device compromise the uniformity and continuity of
the ground ...
A review of techniques in optimal sizing of hybrid renewable energy systems
(2015)
