One of the earliest results in flow shop scheduling theory is an algorithm given by Johnson’s [1] for scheduling jobs on two or three machines to minimize the total elapsed time whenever the processing times of jobs are random. The present paper is an attempt to develop a heuristic algorithm for two stages specially structured flow shop scheduling in which the processing times of the jobs a...

Bilateral filter is a state-of-the-art method for noise reduction and color depth enhancement. The plausible visual result the filter produces makes it highly desired for video processing applications, yet, its high computational complexity makes a real-time implementation a challenging task. Presented here is a highly-parallel version of the bilateral filter for noise reduction in color video ...

Friction stir processing was applied for fabricating an aluminum alloy based hybrid nano composite reinforced with nano sized Al2O3 and micro sized graphite particles. A mixture of Al2O3 and graphite particles was packed into a groove with 1 mm width and 4.5 mm depth, which had been cut in 5083 aluminum plate of 10 mm thick. Packed groove was subjected to friction stir processing in order to im...

Pulse oximetry measures the relative concentration of arterial oxygenated hemoglobin and reduced hemoglobin. This paper presents the design of a pulse oximeter, which measures the presence of a third substance, carboxyhemoglobin (HbCO), by unfiltered LEDs at 660 nm, 810 nm, and 940 nm. Background information is given on the theory of pulse oximetry. Theoretical approximations and calculations w...

this paper addresses the signal processing principles in passive bistatic radar (pbr) systems. in this case, the detection problem in the presence of system noise, clutter/multipath, direct signal and interfering target signals is investigated. to this light, two types of detectors are studied. in the first one, which is based on intuitive sense, we examine two detectors. in the second type det...

nowadays, close competition and high cost of production cause the loss reduction and waste recovery to be one of the most concern of industrial and production companies and factories. for this, managers are looking for new methods to reduce the defect in the product line of the factories. image processing and machine monitoring systems are technologies used in different fields of military, phys...
