In this paper, we present a segmentation method of handwritten Arabic texts. The proposed method uses the algorithm for construction of the Outer Isothetic Cover (OIC) of a digital object. This technique 3allows the construction of polygons of all connected components on the binary image of the document. The first specificity of this method is that it allows the extraction of the shape of the script...
The tourism industry is a fast growing sector in today's world that has penetrated itself in digital domain. Tourists are unable to fetch necessary information that could be required at the time of emergency due to absence or inappropriate mobile network connectivity. Moreover, tourists are often lost and many casualties are recorded because they could not be tracked and help could not reach them...
Monitoring based Mobile applications have been developed as the improvement of portable figuring and correspondence innovations. Mobile computing technologies enable the mobile users to make, get to, process, store and impart data without being obliged to a solitary area. The availability of Mobile computing technologies and smart phones gives new possibilities for a continuous monitoring of Aqua...
Cordova is an open-source mobile application development framework. It allows you to develop mobile applications with web technologies-HTML5, CSS3 and JavaScript. Cordova cross platform target multiple platform with one code base (Code once and Run Everywhere). In this paper we implement simple News Application by using Cordova development framework, to create local Newspaper agency. This Application...
Recent advance in the geo-located capacities, secured and verified positioning techniques, ubiquitous connectivity, as well as mobile and embedded systems, have led to develop a plethora of Location-Based Services (LBS), personalize the services that they deliver according to the location of the user querying the service. However, the widespread use of mobile equipments, with ever increases availability,...
Augmented Reality applications are used in almost every area of our lives. These applications have been started to use in the town planning and smart city applications. In this study, a prototype application was developed using this technology. As a smart city/smart campus application, Mugla Sitki Kogman University Campus application will be made. The aim of this study is to adapt some of the smart...
Crowdsourced testing is an emerging trend in software testing, especially for mobile testing due to Android fragment issues. Gaining the productive outputs of high quality always comes with the assumption that the workers are experienced. However, the crowd of testers are not usually professionals. Thus, it becomes an interesting topic to guide the crowd to obtain domain knowledge and fulfill tasks...
First, according to characteristics of mobile social environment, by using optimization models based on similarity degree and interaction degree respectively, the optimal correlated users can be selected for analyzing two main factors of a target user's behaviors (i.e. long-term habits and short-term influences); furthermore, an adaptive update strategy based on fuzzy theory is proposed to describe...
In this paper, we have proposed a smart ration card using Radio frequency identification (RFID) technique, biometrics and SMS gateway to prevent the ration forgery. In this system, a RFID tag is used that carries family member details and the customer needs to show this tag at the ration shop. The user will also have to provide thumb impression on the biometric machine. If the user is found authentic...
We designed and created a new video database that models a variety of complex distortions generated during the video capturing process on hand-held mobile capturing devices. We describe the content and characteristics of the new database, which we call the LIVE Mobile In-Capture Video Quality Database. It comprises a total of 208 videos that were captured using eight different smart-phones and were...
The popularization of Long Term Evolution (LTE) leads to the issues of mobile data usage monitoring and prediction. The analyses of these issues can be referred for the deployment of mobile network and the recommendation of customer solutions. However, a great deal of statistical computing power and time is needed for several previous mobile data usage prediction methods. Because large variances may...
Mobile app testing and evaluation requires exposing the app to a wide array of real world context conditions viz. location, sensor values, network conditions etc. Such comprehensive context conditions are difficult to create in a development environment on a real device, therefore, simulating them in a mobile emulator is a promising alternative. We present ContextMonkey, a framework for context generation...
User authentication is a very important securitymechanism for accessing the services while roaming in theglobal mobility networks. However, the authentication schemesdesigned are vulnerable to the attacks, hence new requirementsshould be employed while designing a scheme. In 2014 Gopeand Hwang proposed an efficient mutual authentication andkey agreement scheme, in which they stated that the schemeprovides...
A modern development in time and technology requires faster information broadcasting. United, personalized, intelligent information applications are more significant in business and private lives. Such appliances are cell phones, two-way pagers, personal organizers, screen phones, etc. An ACC (Android College Campus) is an application to access the organization and particularly by students well over...

This includes a variety of collections of flowers and flower made products such as flower arrangements, flower bouquets, retails and etc. This project deals with the booking of various flower products...
The main objective of the democracy is “vote” by which the people can elect the candidates for forming an efficient government to satisfy their needs and requests such that their standard living can be improved. In developing countries like “INDIA” the election commission follows manual voting mechanism which is done by electronic voting machine. This machine is placed in the poll booth centre and...
Many applications have been available in the market for helping tourists for reaching their destinations efficiently. But these applications suffer from many shortcomings including limited functionality, accuracy and features. In order to overcome these limitations, GuideMe has been developed to provide the tourists with accurate and reliable information along with the ability to customize the application...
In the life of visually challenged people shopping is one of the greatest challenges. From getting around the supermarket to paying the bill at the cashier they need to rely on someone else. They never get a chance to shop on their own. Whether the person uses a cane, a seeing-eye dog or other sight tools, shopping is still a painstaking chore for them. This paper presents iShop — a complete mobile...
In this paper, we designed software which is short for "Looking for partners". It is a kind of social media software. The majority users of the software are the college students. The novelty of this software lays in the personal interests-based friends match patterns when a user wants to add friends. The software also could support both online and offline communications with achieving the...
This work is dedicated to study the IO characteristics of SQLite transaction in Android platform. We collect the block level IO trace from for six months. We develop an elaborate pattern matching algorithm. It allows us to identify the individual SQLite transactions from the raw IO trace, which is essentially an interleaved mixture of IO requests from concurrently running smartphone applications....
