A network that has recently received a lot of interest is the Vehicular Ad hoc Network VANET. Vehicle – to – Vehicle V2V communication is the conventional method in VANET communication, where vehicles can share information regarding the road status such as a warning message related to the incidence of an accident. The aim of this paper is the use of Multiple – Input – Multiple – Output MIMO diversity technique called Alamouti Space-Time Block Coding STBC as a channel coding in V2V communication. The simulation tests were constructed according to the conditions of vehicles speeds, modulations and the distances between the vehicles. These tests included both symmetric and asymmetric channels. The results showed that Alamouti STBC is suitable for slow fading channel communication rather than for mobility communication such as V2V.

Date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.) is one of the most important and the oldest crops in Iraq. It is suffered from degradation due to various economical and numerous military conflicts. In this paper, a different method based on the Landsat-8 images has presented which is used to map the region of interest and to estimate dates palm trees. This method based on a Least Square Model (LSM) for statistical relations between different spectral indices (NDVI, EVI, NDMI) and tasselled cap parameters with in situ data. As a result, the best developed model was produced using fourth component of tasselled cap transformation with a correlation of R2 = 0.95 with in situ data. Thus, the results show that the Landsat-8 images are useful to estimate and monitor date palm area with high accuracy. This result is encouraging to estimate other parameters that concerned to the date palm.

Convolutional neural network (CNN) is a multilayer architecture, and considered as a robust model for image recognition. Learning in this neural network achieves progressively in its successive layers such that the layers produce higher-level features and the categories are produced by the last layer. To use the CNN in different real time applications, high performance implementation is required. To reduce the resources required for implementation, in this paper a time sharing based parallel implementation of CNN is proposed. The computing of the upper convolution nodes is done sequentially while the parallelism is increased in the direction of the preceding layer resulting maximum parallelism in the bottom layer Then the CNN relatively complex design is implemented on an FPGA model with no more than 200,000 gates and can speed up computation up to 166 times.

"Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are spatially distributed at diverse locations to monitor different physical or environmental conditions". Subject to the sensing part duty, sensors can transmit their data through the network to other nodes or to the base station. The growth of WSN applications was motivated to assist the awkward activities in military, industrial and healthcare applications. Sensors size and cost restrictions add many constraints on its performance such as energy, computational speed, "communications bandwidth" and memory. Most of the real-world engineering optimization problems represent multi-Objective problems. Objectives are often conflicting. Multi-objective optimization (MOO) is the optimization of conflicting objectives. Their solutions are set of answers that describe the best tradeoff between conflicting objectives. In this paper, a developed non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm (NSGA-II) will be proposed to address certain WSN issues. It aims to control the overlapping level between nodes via unit desk graph connectivity model. A suggested Multi-objective optimization model will also help in defining the best tradeoff between network coverage and connectivity as two competing objectives.

In this paper, we present a discussion panel of two of the hottest topics in this area namely distributed parallel processing and distributed cloud computing. Various aspects have been discussed in this review paper such as concentrating on whether these topics are discussed simultaneously in any previous works. Other aspects that have been reviewed in this paper include the algorithms, which simulated in both distributed parallel computing and distributed cloud computing. The goal is to process the tasks over resources then readjusted the calculation among the servers for the sake of optimization. These help us to improve the system performance with the desired rates. During our review, we presented some articles which explain the designing of applications in distributed cloud computing while some others introduced the concept of decreasing the response time in distributed parallel computing.

Modern lives are dominated by what people see, and so there are many travel guides described wonderful places to visit. However, the sounds of these places are part of the experience. In some cases, what people hear is more important and interesting than what they see. This paper presents a new technique that gives an approach to combine map locations with their environmental sounds. It identifies places with unique sounds and encourages people to become interested in what they hear. The system is a collaborative data input, which allows public contribution in recording and archiving. Users are allowed to participate and upload their own sounds onto an efficient mapping system (Google map). The idea is to develop an audio map application; it is a great way to encourage people to gather audio and plot sounds to locations. The system is equivalent to Google Street View but with embedding audio will be Audio Street View.

The use of Non-Tactile Semi Cylindrical Capacitive Sensors is quite common in petroleum applications. While these devices are comparatively inexpensive and effective way of measurements in horizontal pipes, they lack the required accuracy in vertical pipes applications. The measurements have shown a drift of up to 35%, when 500 ml water is used as a test sample, due to spatial variation of the electric field inside the sensor. In order to analyse the situation, a two-dimensional mapping of the electric field and equipotential lines inside the sensor has been numerically calculated by employing finite difference method model using MATLAB programming environment. The electric field diversifies spatially across the cross-sectional area of the pipe and a non-homogeneous distribution has been shown by the results. This compromises the accuracy of semi cylindrical sensors in vertical pipes application.

Long Term Evolution (LTE) technology can provide 100 Mbps and 30 Mbps in down and upstream. Its improvement in latency and scalable bandwidth capacity depend mainly on the channel numbers and quality. Analysing the performance of LTE downlink using Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) and Extended Typical Urban (ETU) models can lead to better usage of these networks. Therefore, in this paper physical layer for downlink channel of LTE in FDD (frequency division duplexing) mode will be analysed. Where the two propagation techniques of LTE Physical Downlink Shared Channel (PDSCH) will be compare to choose the best in this paper. The simulation results show that ETU better and faster than EPA in reaching target throughput and reaching higher maximum throughput for all cases at all Doppler values.

For the adjacency matrix A of a graph G, a number λ is an eigenvalue of G if for some non zerovector X, AX=λX. The vector X is called the eigenvector corresponding to λ. The eigenvalues are exactly those numbers λ that make the matrix A-λI to be singular. All eigenvectors corresponding to λ forms a subspace Vλ; the dimension of Vλ is equal to the multiplicity of λ. A graph G is a Smith graph if 2 is an eigenvalue of the adjacency matrix A of G, a λ-weighting technique is introduced and applied to characterize some classes of Smith graphs as well as to study their nullities and the nullity of vertex identification of such graphs. We also have proved that under certain conditions the vertex identification of some Smith graphs is a Smith graph.
