Malaysian small and medium enterprises (SME) can be tuned into a collaborative and interdependent socio-economic business environment when they are jacketed with ecosystem. In a DBE, small and medium enterprises are provided with the freedom to integrate their services across organization and turn them into offerings. This helps them in many ways resulting in improved performance of employees and customer satisfaction. Surveys have shown that Perceived Usefulness (PU) and Perceived Ease of Use of SME employees are some of the key variables which are amplified. In Malaysian context, small and medium enterprises are very important to regional economy which is largely dependent open state market. DBE links the small and medium enterprises in a way to create a win-win situation for all the stake holders. The paper provides an evolutionary framework for small and medium enterprises which is hoped to achieve the long standing goal of a true collaborated network. It should help small and medium enterprises climb up the ladder of Eadoption by taking a step further ahead of ecommerce and ebusiness.","PeriodicalId":132155,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Conference on Computer Applications and Industrial Electronics (ICCAIE)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116872260","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Few studies have successfully investigated the automatic classification of colonic pathology images if they contain healthy cells or cancerous cells. The objective of this work is the multispectral images classification of healthy and cancerous cells in order to accelerate the operations of classification between different types of cancerous cells. Our detection approach was derived from the \"Snake\" method but using a progressive division of the dimensions of the image to achieve faster segmentation. The time consumed during segmentation was decreased to more than 50%. We extract several Haralick's coefficients to detect the type of cells were made segmentation are applied to the multispectral image. The experimental results obtained on several multispectral images show that the method is efficient for the classification of cancer cells of type Carcinoma (Ca), Intraepithelial Neoplasia (IN) and Benign Hyperplasia (BH).","PeriodicalId":132155,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Conference on Computer Applications and Industrial Electronics (ICCAIE)","volume":"12 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123650551","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The prevailing multimedia applications need that the MAC protocol should execute all traffic types unvaryingly. To ensure efficient transmission, an optical network should make use of a MAC protocol to arbitrate access to the shared medium in order to avoid data collisions and at the same time efficiently share the transmission bandwidth among different traffic classes to guarantee the quality of service (QoS). However, the performance of all these schemes is significantly degraded when the round-trip times (RTTs) of the optical network units (ONUs) are dissimilar, due to the large number of gaps in the transmission schedule. Unfortunately, in real networks, RTTs are usually dissimilar. In this paper we propose a new MAC protocol which accommodates a range of multimedia traffic with dissimilar characteristics and QoS demands. The new MAC protocol employs a new algorithm to exploits the RTTs' resemblance and restructures the ONUs service order and an additional algorithm to support the requests that cause the minimum scheduling latency.","PeriodicalId":132155,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Conference on Computer Applications and Industrial Electronics (ICCAIE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122108478","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A multimodal biometric system consolidates the evidence presented by multiple biometric sources and typically provides better recognition performance compared to systems based on a single biometric modality. So we use combination of Face, Ear and Palm characteristic to individual's authentication. In fusion stage we use matching-score level.

Each computer works on its own workunits independently from each other and sends back its result to a project server. Installing, configuring, and maintaining a BOINC based project however is a highly sophisticated task. Scientists and developers need a lot of experience regarding the underlying communication and operating system technologies, even if only a handful of BOINC related functions are actually needed for most applications. In this paper we present a Unified Modeling Language (UML) profile for BOINC called Visu@lGrid profile (VGP). A BOINC project installation for one or more hosts, a role-based access control, and modeling of scientific application is feasible by use of VGP. Based on our approach we provide a specification that allows the creation of BOINC projects with less development and implementation effort.","PeriodicalId":132155,"journal":{"name":"2011 IEEE International Conference on Computer Applications and Industrial Electronics (ICCAIE)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130751392","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper presents a conceptual model for information dissemination in VANETs. The main goal of our work is to optimize the routing performances by calculating the most stable link and by optimally adjusting the weight of three key selection parameters. The consideration of higher value of weight function for each vehicle, link stability and life time of sending link will be helpful in improving the performance of this model.

The second part of the paper will discuss the strategies to harvest these ambient vibration sources.

Two configurations of multi-cantilever were fabricated in a form that elevated from the substrate as free-standing structures.
