“Since we are diurnal, colour-vision mammals, the photographs we chose tend to depict species that are brightly coloured”, they write. “As a result, the particular ledger of species we chose is biased in favour of those that warn potential predators to stay away, and their mimics.” But the authors point out that so little work has been done on these species that it is hard to know which are gen...

Please cite this article in press as: Talei, A., et a Expert Systems with Applications (2010), doi:10.1 Intelligent computing tools based on fuzzy logic and Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) have been successfully applied in various problems with superior performances. A new approach of combining these two powerful AI tools, known as neuro-fuzzy systems, has increasingly attracted scientists in ...

Wireless mesh networks (WMN) have recently captured the interest of academic and industrial researcher communities; because they represent a good solution to providing wireless Internet connectivity in a sizable geographic area. However, the architecture and configuration of this type of network do not ensure protection against unauthorized use of the network. This is because the basic used sec...

The number of households and businesses using HFC cable networks for Internet access is rapidly approaching 40 million in the United States. The cable industry has standardized on a single MAC and physical layer standard, the Data Over Cable System Interface Specification (DOCSIS). The emerging IEEE 802.16 broadband wireless access MAC protocol is based on DOCSIS. We have implemented a simulati...
