This paper presents a car navigation system for a future integrated transportation system as an intelligent transportation system-ITS. The system focuses on the mechanisms how to detect the current position of each vehicle and to navigate each vehicle. The individual vehicular data is collected using Global Positioning System-GPS for location data and then transmitted to the control center by the mobile phone. For the purpose of this paper, the device will be referred to "Reporting Equipment for current geographic Position" or REP. In the case where every vehicle within the transportation network is equipped with a REP it will be referred to as "Comprehensive REP Environment" or CREPE. If a great number of cars report their positions to the control center, it causes a heavy load of network. This paper proposes an algorithm to reduce the network load. If a car skips some reports, the control center cannot estimate its correct position. The algorithm aims to decrease the frequency of the reporting without sacrificing the proper level of accuracy for the position. The effectiveness is evaluated as 1/2 or 2/3 times compared to periodical reporting algorithms.

Carbon nanotube (CNT) integrated with biological functionalities is expected to be one of the most promising field in future biomedical applications. CNT material with prominent properties along with application of micro fabrication technology make possible enormous application potential sensors with high resolution, more accurate, higher sensitivity and micrometer size. One of these applications, introduced in this paper, is pH sensors using CNT as sensing material. Monitoring and evaluating the pH of the solution in a bioprocess is one of the key steps in the success of bioreactor operation. Our proposal based on the changes significantly in electrical property of CNT under different pH environment. This paper describes a method for designing a simple and fast response pH sensor employing single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) using a spray. The conductance and the typical amperometric response of SWCNT at room temperature at different hydroxyl ion concentrations were successfully demonstrated.

We consider possible inclusion of quasi-cyclic low-density parity-check codes in the McEliece cryptosystem, in order to verify the joined security/error control action that this scheme can potentially achieve. As the linearity of the transformation from the private key to the public key exposes the system to the risk of a total break attack, suitable conditions tailored for this class of codes are presented and discussed.

We propose in this paper a simple receiver structure in which the radio frequency signal is directly digitized by the analog-to-digital converters (ADC) with a sampling frequency smaller than signal frequency. This structure is used for direction finding system by means of an antenna array. The direction of arrival (DOA) of RF signal is estimated using the proposed receiver architecture and the high resolution method MUSIC (multiple signal classification). The measurement system composed of a 4 quasi-Yagi antenna element uniform linear array and of 4 parallel digital receivers using a digital oscilloscope is built for validating this idea. The simulation results using ADS (Advanced Design System) software and the measurement results in anechoic chamber show that the DOA is accurately determined by this structure.

In this paper, we report on our research and progress in Vietnamese Broadcast News transcription, with an emphasis on efficient modeling for more accurate recognition. In the acoustic modeling area, this was achieved through a re-alignment process, which considers all pronunciations for each word and outputs the pronunciation that best matches the acoustic data. The effectiveness of acoustic adaptation is greatly increased through unsupervised clustering of test data. In language modeling, we explored the use of non-broadcast-news training data as well as the adaptation to topic. Experimental results showed significant improvements in which the achieved WAR measured on a 1h test set was 84.2%, which gained absolutely 5.4% improvement over the baseline result (Nguyen and Vu, 2006 and Huynh et al., 2005).

In this paper a new effective optimization algorithm called genetical swarm optimization (GSO) is presented. This is a hybrid algorithm developed in order to combine in the most effective way the properties of two of the most popular evolutionary optimization approaches now in use for the optimization of electromagnetic structures, the particle swarm optimization (PSO) and genetic algorithms (GA). This algorithm is essentially, as PSO and GA, a population-based heuristic search technique, which can be used to solve combinatorial optimization problems, modeled on the concepts of natural selection and evolution (GA) but also based on cultural and social rules derived from the analysis of the swarm intelligence and from the interaction among particles (PSO). Preliminary analyses are here presented with respect to the other optimization techniques dealing with a classical optimization problem. The optimized design of a printed reflectarray antenna is finally reported with numerical results.

Nowadays, technology is considered a strategic variable that determines socio-economic growth rate of a nation. In such context, technology assessment and management play a highly important role. It requires, however, an overall solution with appropriate assessment and management methodology and tools for decision-making when facing vital questions on technology capability status, urgent technology demand or national technological field to be specialized etc. This article aims to introduce a distributed database system built from smallest components of the socio-economy. Designed and developed upon a highly quantitative and consistent methodology, it provides managers at different levels with analytical and assessing tools that will effectively bring in an insight into the so-called "technology atlas" of every industrial sector as well as proper macroscopic adjustments accordingly.

We propose an efficient algorithm using 3D morphological filtering for rejecting clutters in ultrasound color flow images. It consists of mask generation, preprocessing, and 3D morphological filtering. In the filtering, 2D binary opening is performed in spatial domain, which is followed by 2D binary opening in lateral-temporal domain. The shape and size of a structuring element for 2D opening are determined according to the statistical characteristics of the clutters and vessels. Simulation results have shown that the proposed algorithm is efficient to remove clutters from color flow images.

Wireless infrared optical CDMA (W-OCDMA) is a new developing technique with some useful applications. Control and efficient use of optical power is a key issue in analysis and design of these systems. Also, multi user interference is a major source if impairment in these system. As a result, power control is a key issue in design and implementation of these systems. In this article we investigate a dynamic resource management algorithm (DRMA) as a framework, which employs power control to enable QoS in terms of reliability for multimedia traffic in W-OCDMA networks using optical orthogonal codes (OOC's). A numerical method is also proposed to overcome computational difficulties of call admission control in base station to control user's power variation for different service levels. The results demonstrate techniques that can be used to create a local area W-OCDMA network with differentiated service.

A set of applications such as IP-TV, Internet video broadcasting, corporate telecast or E-learning require simultaneous transmission of video streaming over the Internet. However, conventional solutions for Internet streaming services have exhibited several disadvantages such as server overload and congestion in the immediate network nodes, especially in case of large number of clients. These solutions are also failed to provide QoS-guarantees for streaming services across a heterogeneous Internet. In this article, we propose a novel overlay architecture that is designed for multimedia streaming transmission on the Internet. Basic facility for overlay multicast has been introduced, which can relay a single content to multiple users with consideration of bandwidth available on the overlay links. Also, we deploy a link estimation algorithm to analyze the overlay link condition, which is exposed to congestion and interference. Based on the link estimation algorithm, we developed a rate adaptation algorithm to adapt the transmission rate to the downstream available bandwidth. Our real implementation shows that the new proposed algorithms greatly improve the perceived quality of service at the client, while better utilize network resources.
