Adaptive Time-Varying Brain Source Localization
(2019-11)According to the most recent statistics provided by the World Health Organization, 50 million individuals around the world are diagnosed with epilepsy with 2.5 million new cases diagnosed annually. One-third of this large ... -
Adaptive Video Streaming Over Cognitive Radio Networks
(2017-01)Several challenges face reliable video streaming over wireless networks due to the stringent requirements of high data rate, low error rate, and limited end-to-end delay. Cognitive radio (CR) networks offer a great advantage ... -
Added Mass Formulation For Fluid-Structure Interaction
(2016-05)Fluid-Structure Interaction (FSI) occurs due to interaction of multiple continuum fields. In our daily life, FSI is a common phenomenon. Birds flying in the air, leaves falling off the tree and waving flags are examples ... -
Additive Cyclic Codes Over Rings
(2015-02)This Master's thesis introduces a reader with an average knowledge of mathematics to coding theory. A background in algebra is included with the required details needed in coding theory. The thesis guides the reader from ... -
Addressing Language Errors in L2 Students' Writing: Can Corpora Help?
(2011-06)Direct corpus consultation by learners has been recognized as a means of helping students speak and write standard English by allowing them to look up real world language usage. However, factors such as students' language ... -
Addressing the Translation into English of near Synonymy in the Holy Qur'an
(2017-03)It is now fairly well-established that complete synonymy is almost non-existent in any language, as it is not easy to find two words with the same denotations and/or connotations. On the other hand, near synonymy is plentiful ... -
Adoption of Industry 4.0 for Sustainable Manufacturing
(2022-04)The Fourth Industrial Revolution (Industry 4.0) intends to help different industries monitor, control, and run their production systems efficiently. Most of the currently available Industry 4.0 implementation frameworks ... -
