Map morphing is an interactive visualization technique that provides a user-controlled, animated translation from one map to another. Traditionally, overlay mechanisms are used to present layers of information over a single projection. Map morphing provides a way to relate maps with significant spatial and schematic differences. This paper presents the morphing technique and the results of a co...

E-learning is the resulting product from the evolution of internet technology. It acts as a medium of learning virtually without limitation of time and space and the need for teachers to be present physically. Currently, Moodle which is a learning management system has become an important medium to deliver e-learning easily by providing customized tool for educators to deploy learning materials...

Abstract—This paper proposes an interactive map streaming system in mobile environment. The system consists of two parts: a map streaming server and location collecting clients. The map streaming server captures map screen periodically and makes video stream to send it to a client. The client plays the streaming video and detects the location of the user to send to the server. The server side m...

This paper attempts at authenticating users in the hardened password mechanism, through the use of contour mapping techniques. Students of the computer science department at the University of Mauritius have been dealing with contour mapping techniques in computer graphics and password mechanisms during their final year. This work aims at introducing them to the development of simple components ...

Minimization of multiple output functions of a digital logic circuit is a classic research problem. Minimal circuit is obtained by using multiple Karnaugh Maps (K-map), one for each function. In this paper we propose a novel technique that uses a single Karnaugh Map for minimizing multiple outputs of a single circuit. The algorithm basically accumulates multiple K-Maps into a single K-Map. Find...

Most of the cloud services require users to share personal data like electronic medical record for data analysis and data mining, bringing privacy concerns. The data sets can be anonymized by using generalization method to attain such privacy requirement. At present the proportion of data in several cloud application growing greatly in congruence with the bid data trend, therefore it is a chall...

The University of Salerno (Italy) has recently been equipped with a pair of aerials that are able to receive data transmitted from various satellite platforms such as the NOAA and the Terra-1 and Aqua-1 EOS. These satellites are fitted with sensors that pick up information regarding soil and cloud temperature, the humidity level of the atmosphere, the presence of extraneous water, the presence ...

Frequent pattern Mining is an important discovery in data mining tasks. Thus, it has been the subject of numerous studies and research since its concept came . Mostly studies find all the frequent patterns from collection of precise data, in which the items within each datum or transaction are definitely known. But, in many real-life scenario in which the user is interested in only some tiny po...

  In present PET/CT scanners, PET attenuation correction is performed by relying on the information given by CT scan. In the CT-based attenuation correction methods, dual-energy technique (DECT) is the most accurate approach, which has been limited due to the increasing patient dose. In this feasibility study, we have introduced a new method that can implement dual-en...

The aim of the present study was the examination of the boot swab sampling technique for the collection of environmental material in order to identify Mycobacterium avium ssp. paratuberculosis (MAP)-infected herds. Eight dairy herds were included into the study. Four of them had a well-known history of MAP-infection from a herd surveillance programme conducted since 2006. Cows in these herds we...
