The significance of integrated water resources management (IWRM) is broadly recognized, but practical implementation methods are little known. This paper proposes a Practical IWRM approach that has the potential to accelerate consensus-building and problem-solving relating based on formation an aligned perception natural human-made resource systems among stakeholders, establishment properly fun...

As pervasive communication becomes a reality, where everything from vehicles to heart monitors constantly communicate with their environments, system designers are facing a cryptographic puzzle on how to authenticate messages. These scenarios require that : (1) cryptographic overhead remain short, and yet (2) many messages from many different signers be verified very quickly. Pairingbased signa...

This paper presents the development of the fusion model skills diagnosis system (fusion model system), which can help integrate standardized testing into the learning process with both skills-level examinee parameters for modeling examinee skill mastery and skills-level item parameters, giving information about the diagnostic power of the test. The development of the fusion model system involve...

Order-preserving encryption (OPE) is a cryptographic primitive that preserves the order of plaintexts. In past few years, many OPE schemes were proposed to solve problem executing range queries in encrypted databases. However, leaks some certain information (for example, ciphertext), so it vulnerable attacks. Subsequently, order-revealing (ORE) was by Boneh <italic xmlns:mml="http://www.w3.org/...
