Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are new generation of wireless networks which have many potential applications and unique challenges. Some of their most important problems are their limited resources, independent and autonomous operation and dynamic topology. Also, maximum of energy consumption into these networks is occurred when data transmission. In recent decade, researchers have been tryin...

Decision making in the tender phase of large infrastructural projects is a complex task for contractors as they have to make design decisions with long term effects and based on complex client requirements. Further complexity is added by the constrained environment of a tender and the uncertainty of winning the tender. As the context and the project are unique, there are no standard models for ...

With the growing deployment of cellular networks, operators have to devote significant manual effort to network management. As a result, Self-Organizing Networks (SONs) have become increasingly important in order to raise the level of automated operation in cellular technologies. In this context, Load Balancing (LB) and Handover Optimization (HOO) have been identified by industry as key self-or...

In this paper issues of creating case tools, implementing capability maturity models, for software process improvement are analyzed. A range of aspects of using the maturity models were analyzed to this end; these aspects were taken into consideration when designing the case tools structure. The group of existing case tools is reviewed, their benefits and limitations are displayed. The inner st...

Important connections exist among product-line CBSE, systematic reuse, component infrastructure, and the processes and organization that produce a product-line. Most organizations successfully adopt CBSE incrementally by carefully matching the new technology with a business need and organizational process maturity. To effectively develop a product-line, you need a coherent approach to architect...

The Content Management System (CMS) changes the perspective towards the web design process through allowing easily nontechnical users to manage contents of their web sites. It has a wide range of features that will satisfy the school communication needs that are well served by dynamic web sites. Consequently, the main goal of this work is designing an appropriate framework for the School Conten...

Students at a large southeastern university typically find the introductory networking and telecommunications course difficult. This study examines the factors that contribute to the success of undergraduate technology support and training management students in this required course. College transcripts and academic student files provided the data, which were analyzed using multiple regression....

The currently facing problems of the teaching of communications principles course are summerized and analyzed in this paper. For the teaching of theoretical knowledge, a series of effective measures are taken to improve teaching effectiveness, including organizing appropriate course contents, designing excellent multimedia coursewares, and selecting valid teaching methods. On the other hand, th...
