We describe a mobile app that measures early cortical visual processing suitable for use in clinics. The app is called Component Extraction and Motion Integration Test (CEMIT). Observers are asked to respond to the direction of translating plaids that move in one of two very different directions. The plaids have been selected so that the plaid components move in one of the directions and the pl...

The latest developments in mobile computing technology have enabled intensive applications on the modern Smartphones. However, such applications are still constrained by limitations in processing potentials, storage capacity and battery lifetime of the Smart Mobile Devices (SMDs). Therefore, Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC) leverages the application processing services of computational clouds for m...

We develop an application architecture for interactive, bilateral, semi-structured, multi-attribute electronic negotiations in business-to-business environments. We analyze the information and the process flow for this type of negotiations. We introduce the 'Negotiation Engine' as the core component of the application and discuss its functionality. We analyze relevant application scenarios and ...

the continuous addition of industrial, municipal, and agricultural effluents to the environment has led to a great increase of toxic pollutants. it is well known that these pollutants are hazardous to animals, plants, microorganisms, and other living organisms including humans. as a result, effective technologies should be developed to remove these contaminants. biological remediation, as an...
