Region Growing Segmentation is a popular segmentation scheme used for real time computer vision applications. All the implementation proposed so far lacks processing speed due to their semi parallel region grow from seed pixels. In this paper we have proposed a fully parallel merging based architecture for region growing. Beside less memory requirement for storing individual labels, the main advantage of this algorithm is its parallel local operations suitable for VLSI cell network based implementation. We have merged two neighboring pixels which have least mutual intensity differences and assigned a dual predicate to each merging pixel. The predicate is selected as minimum and maximum values of two candidate pixels. We have shown in this paper that, execution speed wise our architecture over-performs the contemporary architectures for region growing available in literature without compromising segmentation quality. Also the resource utilization is quite small due to its simple state machine based implementation.

Wireless sensor networks (WSN) are extensively utilized in many important applications. It is very important that the data from wireless sensor nodes must successfully reach the main location apart from issues related to capacity, coverage and event of failure. In this paper we propose a failsafe wireless sensor network based on the burgeoning concept called cooperative communication. Here the sensor node transmits data to the base station through ZigBee module with the range of 30m. In case where the probabilities for direct communication between the base station and sensor node become unfeasible, two cooperative relay nodes participate for successful transmission of data from sensor node to base station and improve the quality of service in the network even if one of the relay nodes fails which reduces chances in data loss from the sensor node and increases the performance of the system. From experimentation of system for three different cases, successful reception of data at the base station in real-time was achieved through space diversity.

A compact triple-band monopole antenna with dimension 30 × 40× 1.6 mm3 fed by a 50 Ω microstrip line is proposed in this paper. The signaling plane consists of a microstrip feed line and a radiating element. The radiating element contains two branches and two stubs. The branches of the radiating element are used to make the circuit to radiate at 2.3 GHz and 3.9 GHz. The stubs help in making the circuit to radiate at 5.3 GHz. Thus the proposed antenna is capable of radiating triple band of frequencies which meets the specifications of WLAN 2.4/5.3 GHz and Wi-MAX 3.9 GHz. The VSWR values are 1.2, 1.9 and 1.1 at 2.3 GHz, 3.9 GHz and 5.3 GHz respectively. The simulated return loss values at the desired frequencies are -19 dB at 2.3 GHz, -25 dB at 3.9 GHz and -38 dB at 5.3 GHz. The ground plane is designed with a defected ground structure with two inverted L shaped strips that helps to enhance the bandwidth of the system. The bandwidth of the proposed triple band antenna are (2.2 - 2.4) GHz, (3.7 - 3.92) GHz and (5.2 - 5.4) GHz. The radiation pattern of the proposed antenna is bi-directional in H-plane and unidirectional in E-plane which is suitable for WLAN and Wi-MAX applications.

The most common diagnosis method for power transformer faults is the dissolved gas analysis (DGA) of transformer oil. Various methods have been developed to interpret DGA results such as key gas method, and roger's ratio method. The present approach utilizes IEC 60599 ratio method to discriminate fault in transformers, which is having the advantage of usage of three gas ratios instead of four gas ratios used in other ratio methods. In some cases, the DGA results cannot be matched by the existing codes, making the diagnosis unsuccessful in multiple faults. To overcome this, the authors have proposed the use of neural networks to highlight their ability to detect the incipient faults in transformer.

With an increase in environmental considerations over the years, it has become extremely significant to reduce the emission levels in all areas of technology. Likewise, the problem of Unit Commitment (UC), which has always been thought of as a problem to reduce generation cost also involves an added objective of reducing emission levels. This paper presents a new methodology to solve this multi-objective problem. The problem of unit commitment keeping in mind the emission levels has been solved using the evolutionary algorithm of Invasive Weed Optimization (IWO). This proposed algorithm has been tested for two cases, eleven unit twenty four hour systems and eleven unit one sixty eight hour system. Both the results of unit commitment and emission levels have been obtained individually using IWO and the best solution has been achieved by compromising between emission levels and generation cost. This balance has been achieved using trade-off between the two separate solutions. The advantage of this new method gives much more accurate results for both emission and fuel cost which helps in achieving a better optimal solution using trade-offs.

In this paper, we have implemented a technique called the Transmission Line Matrix Method in order to calculate the various propagation parameters. TLM includes discretization of 3-D space and accordingly calculate the various parameters. To do this a special geometry called `Super Symmetrical Condensed Node' is used. This method is implemented on the serial platform and the final results are presented in the form of a graph of the transfer function of the simulated resonator i.e. the PSD of output signal for a given input signal. Further, the pivotal considerations for the implementation of this simulator on the CUDA platform are discussed and a proposal for the CUDA implementation is presented.

We design a photonic silicon nanowire embedded microstructured optical fiber which is a special class of waveguide whose core diameter is of subwavelength or nanometer size with the air holes in the cladding. We study the optical waveguiding properties, namely, waveguide dispersions and effective nonlinearity by varying the core diameter. The results reveal that the air-clad silicon subwavelength nanowire exhibits several interesting properties such as a large normal dispersion (82385 ps2/km) for 300 nm core diameter and a large anomalous dispersion (-6817.3 ps2/km) for 500 nm core diameter at 1.95 μm wavelength. The structure provides a large nonlinearity (3648 1/Wm) at 0.450 μm wavelength for 300 nm core diameter. These enhanced optical properties might find suitable for various nonlinear applications that include the generation of few cycle pulses, supercontinuum generation and optical processing.

We analyze the enhancement of multisubband electron mobility in delta-doped AlxGa1-xAs parabolic quantum well structures. We show that mobility is considerably enhanced in a parabolic quantum well compared to that in a square quantum well due to shifting of subband electron wave functions towards the centre of the well through the influence of the parabolic structure potential. We analyse the interplay of different scattering mechanisms on subband mobility mediated by intersubband interactions which leads to interesting results.

The ever-mounting applications of magnets in scientific instruments like PMMC, motors point to the importance of magnetic pole study. Apart from parameters like magnetic field intensity, flux density and hysteresis that are commonly used in magnetic study, a count of the number of poles of a magnet can be another useful parameter of study related to a magnet. One of its efficient uses can be of quality check of stators and rotors for correct alignment and number of poles in manufacturing industries. We proposed a low-cost embedded system based method to directly derive at the number of poles of a ring/disk magnet. A direct count of poles could be useful in industries that use multi-pole rotors in motors and also to check the correct alternate pole alignment in the motors. The design of such pole-counter is possible by the optimum application of Faraday's law of electromagnetic induction, signal acquisition and a peak-to-peak counter. Successful results have been demonstrated through the designed prototype.

The rising preference of permanent magnet synchronous motors (PMSM) over the induction motor (IM) due to its high efficiency, better power factor, power to weight ratio is quite evident in recent industrial trends. The presence of permanent magnets in the rotor initiates the problem of motor harmonics, giving rise to harmonic currents and operational noise of the motor. Considering this problem, a suitable alternative to reduce the harmonics existing in the line start permanent magnet synchronous motor (LS-PMSM) is suggested in this paper.
