Watermarking is one of the best solutions for copyright protection and authentication of multimedia contents. In this paper a hybrid scheme is proposed using wavelet and shearlet transforms with singular value decomposition. For better security, Arnold map is used for encryption. Examining the results and comparing with other methods show that this hybrid proposed scheme with simultaneous utili...

In this paper we investigate the problem of processing multiway interval joins on map-reduce platform. We look at join queries formed by interval predicates as defined by Allen’s interval algebra. These predicates can be classified in two groups: colocation based predicates and sequence based predicates. A colocation predicate requires two intervals to share at least one common point while a se...

MapReduce is a parallel programming model and an associated implementation introduced by Google. In the programming model, a user specifies the computation by two functions, Map and Reduce. The underlying MapReduce library automatically parallelizes the computation, and handles complicated issues like data distribution, load balancing and fault tolerance. Massive input, spread across many machi...

This paper describes the implementation of a stereo depth measurement algorithm in hardware on Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs). This system generates 5-bit pixel disparities on 512 by 480 pixel images at video rate (30 frames/sec). The algorithm implemented is a window based scan-line correlation search technique. Hardware implementation speeds up the performance more than 100 times that...

particulate and gaseous emissions of pollutants from industries and auto-exhausts are responsible for rising discomfort, aggravates respiratory and cardiovascular. in this study, a system for air quality information in tehran city has been developed, using an online web-based geographic information system. this web-based gis application allows users to recognize areas with a potential increase ...
