Safety and congestion are two factors which have driven developed countries to adopt Intelligent Transportation Systems (ITS). Such systems cannot be successfully applied to South East Asian countries like Vietnam due to the extremely complicated traffic patterns and lack of infrastructure. Firstly, motorcycles rather than passenger vehicles are by far the dominant vehicles for South East Asian countries...
In most meeting room scheduling or management system, the availability of meeting rooms are mainly based on pre-determined schedules. However, since the meeting duration is not always exact as it is scheduled, there are some situations that a meeting room is underutilized. Therefore, in this paper, we present a smart meeting room scheduling and management system which detect occupancy status of meeting...
Parallel algorithms can significantly speed up computing performance. However, parallel architecture often needs shared-memories for concurrent access. Conventionally, parallel memories are constructed as space-multiplexed memories with many memory chips connected in parallel. This architecture normally requires a large number of interconnects with potentially large routing delay and consumes massive...
In security applications, obtaining high resolution face images is challenging since cameras are usually placed at a far distance. In this paper, we employ two approaches to detect face at a distance including using one or dual pan-tilt-zoom (PTZ) cameras to zoom in and capture proximate faces while still maintaining a large observing area. While most current approaches require a complex calibration...
Wi-Fi localization system based on RSSI is the best candidate for indoor device-tracking in comparison with other systems based on GPS, RFID, infrared and image processing. This paper presents Wi-Fi localization system based on a Wi-Fi routers' network for tracking the device position indoors such as buildings, university campus, skyscrapers and other places where Wi-Fi is present including shopping...
Transcranial Sonography is a clinical procedure for monitoring cerebral blood flow in patients suspected of suffering from severe blood flow disruption in the brain. The Transcranial Doppler (TCD) clinicians are currently only guided by their experience and the temporal bone surface to position the Doppler probe on a suitable site for TCD. This site is known as an acoustic window. Neither experience...
The integration of Information & Communication Technologies (ICT) and Education has been considered the main key to human progress. The aim of ICT is to transfer advances in sciences and technology for the socio-economic development, industrialization and modernization of the country to promote international co-operation in ICT to bring into a country the latest achievements of the world's science...
This paper focuses on the research and development of a human resource management (HRM) system which is based on face authentication and RFID technology for more efficient security and reliability. In the proposed system, a user ID is first read from the given RFID tag to retrieve the corresponding records from the database to be used in the authentication process together with the user image which...
Locating facial feature in face images is an important stage for numerous facial image applications such as face recognition, face expression recognition and face tracking and lip reading. In this paper, we present a robust method for detecting facial feature points in frontal face images. The method adopts face detection algorithm of Viola-Jones face detector. The facial regions are than extracted...
The international community is heavily reliant on the Internet to provide services such as video phones, video conferences, video-on-demand, tele-shopping, web-advisement and virtual reality. Tertiary networks and telecommunications engineering students are required to learn all aspects about the Internet and Internet services. The open-source, research and teaching platform, Network Simulator (NS)...
Technology education such as Bachelor degrees and Diploma certificates in Information Technology, Computers and Electronics Engineering requires both a theoretical component, and a practical component. There are a number of issues related to the practical component that a university needs to address, when delivering a technology or a computer related course, these include but are not limited to students'...
Fractal image compression has been interested due to highly possible compression ratio and selectable quality variation. However, one of disadvantages in fractal image compression is that it takes long time for encoding. So far, there are several methods proposed to get the high speed of encoding such as Fisher's, Hurtgen's and Saupe's, etc. In this paper, implementation of fractal image compression...
Transcranial Ultrasound (TCD) is a neurosonological procedure to examine intracranial brain supplying arteries, by visualizing cerebral blood flow patterns. In patients suffering from severe blood flow disruption to the brain neurological pathology conditions such as stenosis, occlusions and vasospasm can be identified with TCD. Ischemic and hemorrhagic strokes require regular TCD monitoring. However,...
