this paper tries to measure and analyze the trend of indicators of labor and capital productivity as well as total factor productivity (tfp) in the economic sectors introduced in the 4th five-year-development plan for the period within 1971-2003. according to the results, the productivity indicator throughout iran has increased 0/9% on average annually and the highest growth has been in the tel...

The demand for new telecommunication services requiring higher capacities, data rates and different operating modes have motivated the development of new generation multi-standard wireless transceivers. A multi-standard design often involves extensive system level analysis and architectural partitioning, typically requiring extensive calculations. In this research, a decimation filter design to...

We have shown the opportunity to use unique inhomogeneities of internal structure an optical fiber waveguide for remote authentication users or optic line. Optical time domain reflectometry (OTDR) is demonstrated be applicable observing unclonable backscattered signal patterns at distances tens kilometers. The physical nature detected was explained, and their characteristic spatial periods were...

NTT DoCoMo Technical Journal Vol. 9 No.1 *1 IMT-Advanced: A standard ranked as the successor to IMT-2000 at International Telecommunication Union–Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R). It calls for data rates of about 100 Mbit/s for high mobility and 1 Gbit/s for low mobility. *2 WINNER: A European research forum established in 2004 with the aim of developing radio transmission technologies for nex...

The recent move towards market deregulation and open competition has sparked a wave of serious introspection in the telecommunications service industry. Telecom providers and operators are now required to open up their primary revenue channels to competing industries. In this paper, we examine the service structure of two major global communication networks the Telephone Network and the Interne...

This chapter describes how the changing information about an individual’s location, environment, and social situation can be used to initiate and facilitate people’s interactions with one another, individually and in groups. Context-aware communication is contrasted with other forms of context-aware computing and we characterize applications in terms of design decisions along two dimensions: th...

The telecommunications sector has become a dynamic key area for the economic development of the European Union (EU) and remains in constant evolution. Because of intense competition, telecommunications companies are forced to diversify their offers and thus to propose an increasing number of services. However, economic analysis often ignores important technical aspects of telecommunications and...

Network design and network synthesis have been the classical optimization problems in telecommunication for a long time. In the recent past, there have been many technological developments such as digitization of information, optical networks, internet, and wireless networks. These developments have led to a series of new optimization problems. This manuscript gives an overview of the developme...

This paper deals with adapting the telecommunication services of an organization to the diversity of individual value orientations related to culture. After a discussion of the processes linking telecommunication use to cultural values, we show on empirical grounds the relationship between the preference of the individual for organizational cultures and his or her telecommunication use (fax, em...

Telecommunication towers are among the few steel structures that little attention has been paid to their seismic behavior in existing design codes. Due to lack of design provisions, the designers apply the existing building design codes to telecommunication towers. However, the seismic behavior and response of telecommunication towers is very different from that of building structures. For exam...
