This study was undertaken to determine what makes people buy the consoles they do, with particular reference to gender, and the technology and networking facilities they provide. It looks at the evolution of Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo over the past decade to establish how their console designs have developed, and what their latest 7th generation models have to offer in contrast to their competitor`s offers. Research has been gathered from books and from the internet to help show what the current problems are with consoles that have not been designed for gender equality, and the advantages to those that have (with relation to technology and networking). 32 people were questioned about the console they own and why they own it. Results showed that 75% of PS3 owners were male, and that 100% of Xbox 360s were male. The latter is due to the advanced gaming the Xbox 360 has to offer. 75% of females owned a Nintendo Wii this could be due to the gesture-based controller that it offers. The Wii enables users to interact with the console more easily means inexperienced gamers can play on an entertainment system with family members or friends. ····· 1036187858

Urban Drainage Planning and Design in Mekelle City, Ethiopia: Part-II

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Proper urban drainage management is core to safely discharge flood generated within an urban center or from external sources in to final receiving systems (natural water ways/rivers) or to encourage on-site infiltration. With urbanization it is true that flood hazard increases due to the fact that imperviousness (roofing, transportation ways, parking lots) increases which reduces the infiltration capacity of the land. Similarly with the establishment of Mekelle city, flood generation became a core problem as a result of deforestation followed by impervious structures & it is with such problems the provision of urban drainage facilities had started. According to evidences, such activities had started with road construction. Since then the municipality has tried its best to provide drainage facilities in different periods of time. But, generally, urban drainage management in the city has concentrated only on conventional management. To reverse the situation, this study has tried to introduce sustainable urban drainage management technologies to reduce land degradation, river bank erosion,urban utilities degradation,natural water ways pollution & siltation to end the problem. ····· 1036187766

Biosensor employing organelles in immobilized form are widely used in environmental monitoring. These immobilized organelles play vital role in sensitivity, accuracy, and stability of the biosensor system. Some of the organelle used for immobilization is whole cell, protein, enzyme and DNA. Traditionally biosensor used whole cell from one individual strain of microorganism. This concept limits the biosensor detection to certain specific samples alone. Detection of the content of the samples depends on the properties of the immobilized microbial cell. For detection of broad range of samples, novel biosenor using mixed microbial cultures is being designed in this dissertation. ····· 1036187707

Automatic Road Extraction

für 44.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
This paper proposes intersection model and strategy for road extraction from high resolution satellite images. Satellite images are rich in information. For Geographic Information System (GIS), many features require fast and reliable extraction of roads and intersections. They are also complex to analyze. Satellite image provides useful data that is extracted from satellite image of the urban area. Automatic extraction of the road intersections from the urban areas has been a challenging topic because the high resolution satellite images contain multiple layers that represent roads, buildings, and other high density objects. Our goals is to automatically separate the road layer from the other layers then extract the road intersections. Usually traditional image processing methods don t achieve satisfied performance in case of satellite images. This paper proposes a modified and a cost effective method for road extraction from high resolution satellites images. ····· 1036187658

However, results indicated some negative points in their perceptions and competencies. Pertaining to the measured variables, there significant differences were found among preservice teachers based on their year in the program.This study elicited important results for preservice and inservice computer teaching. ····· 1036187191

3D terrain data compression using wavelets

für 71.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
The most complex GIS data are three dimensional terrain data in GIS applications, for a realistic representation of a terrain, the Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is not suitable for direct use in on-line GIS services due to its large size and inflexibility data structure. Image compression is a key factor to improve transmission speed and storage, but it risks losing relevant terrain information. Very little work has been done till date on the GIS terrain data compression based on second generation wavelets. Second generation wavelet technology provides an efficient compression tool to achieve high compression ratio while maintaining an acceptable fidelity of surface quality. This book presents a new data compression technique using lifting scheme based on second generation wavelets. The lifting scheme has been found to be a flexible method for constructing scalar wavelets with desirable properties. In this book, it is extended to the GIS data compression. A newly developed data compression approach to approximate the terrain surface with a series of non-overlapping triangles has been presented. ····· 1036187161

Registration and Segmentation Methodology for Perfusion MR Images

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) has emerged as a reliable tool for functional analysis of internal organs like the kidney and the heart. Due to the considerable length of time taken to acquire MR images, they are affected by patient motion. Besides, MR images are characterized by low spatial resolution, noise and rapidly changing intensity. Rapid intensity change is the primary challenge that MR image registration methods need to address. This book details some approaches to overcome this challenge. We make use of saliency information that aims to imitate the working of the human visual system for registration of medical images.The second part of our work deals with elastic registration of cardiac perfusion images. The saliency model is modified to reflect the local similarity property at every pixel. Markov random fields (MRFs) are used to integrate saliency and gradient information for elastic registration. Finally we describe a joint registration and segmentation (JRS) method for the perfusion images which exploits the mutual dependency of registration and segmentation. ····· 1036187050

Effect of blend ratio (soybean-teff proportion), feed moisture (9.5-12.5%) and barrel temperature (122-138°C) on physicochemical and sensory properties of an extruded product from brown teff [Eragrostis teff (Zucc.) Trotter] (DZ 01-99 variety) and full fat soybean (Glycine max) (AFGAT variety) were investigated. The extrusion experiment was conducted using a pilot scale co-rotating twin screw food extruder using Central Composite experimental Design (CCD). Second degree polynomial models for the responses as a function of the independent variables were generated. Soybean flour addition to teff flour resulted in increased protein, lipid and total ash content but reduced crude fiber and total carbohydrate content. Blend ratio showed a dominant effect on physicochemical and sensory properties of products. Increased soybean proportion resulted in increased bulk density, hardness, specific length, moisture content, WAI, WSI and WHC but reduced diametric expansion of extruded product. Increased feed moisture increased diametric expansion and specific length but reduced WSI of extrudates. ····· 1036187045

Electricity is a crucial engine for growth, development and prosperity for the country. Nowadays barely anyone can imagine their life without electricity. Unswerving supply of electricity is one of the basic assumptions in terms of economic progress of any country. The level of the economic development of a country determines the level of electricity consumption The current insufficient electricity capacity in the developing countries like Bangladesh can be seen as just another facet of their overall development problems. Bangladesh lacks in sufficient electricity generation capacity and electricity grid network to electrify the whole nation and so 100 % electrification is far from realization. Here, only 42 percent of the total population had electricity access as of 2010. The situations is worse in rural areas extremely than urban section (23% penetration in rural area whereas 79% in urban regions) (RENDEV 2009).The rural electrification of Bangladesh is successful by solar home system. ····· 1036186915

With the pressing need for increased productivity and delivery of end products of uniform quality, industries have been focusing on robots to perform variety of manufacturing functions in a more flexible working environment and at lower production cost. The usage of robots to circumvent complicated problems and to provide high accuracy is also vastly expanding in many areas such as in medical, aerospace, agriculture, military etc. However, since industries are shifting to a new trend of flexible manufacturing system where robots deal with multiple product manufacturing and varied complex tasks, the degree of freedom (dof) of the robot has significant contribution. For a robot of same type having different number of dof, the cost difference is quite high. Furthermore, the availability of robotic wrist force sensor (wfs) is limited to specific applications only. Hence, the improvement of the dof allows the robot to expand its application sphere and the presence of general-purpose robotic wfs will allow the robot to perform multiple applications. This book introduces the design, development and calibration of a robotic wrist force sensor which utilises artificial intelligence. ····· 1036186664

Narrowing Down the Semantic Gap between Content and Context

für 53.10€ kaufen ···· Rheinberg-Buch.de - Bücher, eBooks, DVD & Blu-ray
Conventional information retrieval is based solely on text, and the approaches to textual information retrieval have been transplanted into image retrieval in a variety of ways, including the representation of an image as a vector of feature values of different modalities. It has been widely recognized that the image retrieval techniques should become an integration of different modalities, such as color, texture and associated text keywords. To take the cue from text-based retrieval techniques, we construct visual keywords using vector quantization of small sized image tiles. Both visual and text keywords are combined and used to represent an image as a single multimodal vector. We demonstrate the power of these multimodal image keywords for clustering and retrieval of relevant images from a large collection. ····· 1036186647
