Matrix Encoding for Data Hiding Using Multilayer Video Coding and Transcoding Solutions
(Elsevier, 2012)
This paper proposes a multitier data hiding solution in MPEG video using matrix encoding. In the first tier of the proposed solution, raw video is encoded into two layers using multilayer Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) encoding. ...
Phase transitions of nanoemulsions using ultrasound: Experimental observations
(Elsevier, 2012)
The ultrasound-induced transformation of perfluorocarbon liquids to gases is of interest in the area of drug and gene delivery. In this study, three independent parameters (temperature, size, and perfluorocarbon species) ...
Data Hiding in MPEG Video Files Using Multivariate Regression and Flexible Macroblock Ordering
(IEEE, 2012)
This paper proposes two data hiding approaches using compressed MPEG video. The first approach hides message bits by modulating the quantization scale of a constant bitrate video. A payload of one message bit per macroblock ...
Gas Phase Deposition of Trichloro(1H,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)silane on Silicon Dioxide, by XPS
(American Vacuum Society, 2012)
Monolayers of trichloro(lH,1H,2H,2H-perfluorooctyl)silane, Cl3SiCH2CH2(CF2)5CF3, were deposited via chemical vapor deposition onto the native oxide layer on silicon after plasma-cleaning. The samples have high hydrophobicity, ...
CSR reporting: a review of the Pakistani aviation industry
(Emerald, 2012)
Purpose - The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the corporate social responsibility (CSR) content on corporate web sites and in annual reports, to identify the prevailing CSR dimensions and themes employed by the aviation ...
2D Elasto-Plastic Finite Element Analysis of Tunnels in Dubai, UAE
(2012-06)
Major cities in UAE in general and Dubai in particular are facing significant challenges in terms of traffic flow patterns. Tunnels are being considered as viable option to alleviate the problems faced by transportation ...
Modelling the Impact of Bottlenecks on Arterial Travel Time Using Neural Networks
(2012-06)
Bottlenecks along signalized arterials are a major cause of capacity reduction and delay, which directly impact travel time along specific routes within an urban network. This research addresses the impacts of bottlenecks ...
Stromal Adipocyte Enhancer-binding Protein (AEBP1) Promotes Mammary Epithelial Cell Hyperplasia via Proinflammatory and Hedgehog Signaling
(Elsevier, 2012)
Disruption of mammary stromal-epithelial communication leads to aberrant mammary gland development and induces mammary tumorigenesis. Macrophages have been implicated in carcinogenesis primarily by creating an inflammatory ...
Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Thermal Conductivity Enhancement of Copper-Water Nanofluid
(2012-01)
Nanofluid contains suspended nanoparticles, base fluid and some additives can be used for fluid stability like oleic acid and laurate salt. They are promising mediums to heat and cool high flux systems. Also, their use can ...
Behaviour of Shear Deficient Reinforced Concrete Beams with Externally Bonded Aluminum Plates
(2012-06)
Enhancing the shear capacity of reinforced concrete (RC) beams was done using many different ways and materials. Steel and Fiber reinforced polymers are the most common materials used to strengthen RC beams in shear. ...
