Design and performance evaluation of data dissemination and hovering information protocols for vehicular ad hoc networks (VANETs)
(2017-07-01)
Robust and efficient communication protocols for Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs)
are still an open topic in the literature. Because of that, our attention has been gathered
by the Data Dissemination and the Information ...
Analysing atomic structure in nano-scale imagery
(2017-01-01)
This thesis presents methods for both detecting atoms and reconstructing single layer molecular
geometry depicted within high resolution nanoscale imagery. Nanoscale imaging is a common
method of analysing molecular ...

form. Prior researches have primarily focused on the ...
An adaptive crowdsourced investigation of word abbreviation techniques for text visualizations
(2017-04-01)
A known problem in information visualization labeling is when the text is too long to fit
in the label space. There are some common known techniques used in order to solve this
problem like setting a very small font size. ...
Investigation of novel ammonia production options using photoelectrochemical hydrogen
(2017-01-01)
Hydrogen and ammonia are two of the most significant clean fuels, energy carriers and storage media in the near future. Production of these chemicals are desired to be environmentally friendly. Renewable energy, in particular ...
