While this is true for the larger public network, the local network environment of the user is very vulnerable to denial-of-service, \"man-in-the-middle\" and other attacks that can be devastating. In this paper, we examine the issues of wireless security from the perspective of the user and the local network. We look at airlink attacks by specialized transmitters and intercept receivers. Examples are taken from the technologies used in IS-95 CDMA cellular radiotelephones and IEEE 892.11 wireless LANs.","PeriodicalId":318295,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Information Technology: Coding and Computing","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116027108","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 one-chip resonant circuit has been realised as a monolith integrated sensor in CMOS technology. The dimension is approximately 10 mm/sup 2/. The active part has the form of an absorption resonance frequency meter. Measurement, control, approximation, computation and result processing are performed on a PC.

The observation of the tracking process over the images acquired (specifically for this study with introduced patient motion) in nuclear cardiac laboratory showed that the DC and SM algorithms perform better when compared with the DS algorithm. It was shown that the SM method gains a good tolerance of low signal to noise ratio (SNR) images and is also robust in the presence of abrupt motion.","PeriodicalId":318295,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Information Technology: Coding and Computing","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122480251","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 matrix of 10/spl times/20 micromirrors uses a thermal actuated principle. The micromirror was designed using an industrial 0.8 /spl mu/m double metal CMOS process followed by one single postprocessing step and anisotropic silicon etch. The device consists of one cantilever beam supporting the mirror plate. The beam is a bimorph sandwich of aluminium and silicon dioxide enclosing polysilicon heating resistor. The control electronics contains 20-bit edge-triggered shift register with serial data entry and an output from each of the twenty stages (flip-flop). The output buffer is a driver for the CMOS switch (transfergate) which connects current (Pad Supply for the beam) to the thermal actuator (beam). The ANSYS program was used for the mechanical simulation of thermally actuated micromirror.","PeriodicalId":318295,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Information Technology: Coding and Computing","volume":"78 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128305400","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 novel technique is proposed, where the indicated procedures are combined in optimum algebraic coding. At the heart of the approach is the optimization of coordinate basis of an image representation. It is shown, that the required optimum properties have the eigenfunctions of Fisher's information operator known in the statistical theory of estimation. These functions satisfying defined criteria of a selection are called Principal Information Components (PIC). The PIC-projection technique for improvement of an arbitrary image decomposition is proposed. The given technique allows primary physical representation of an image to decrease a statistical error of its coding on noisy data.","PeriodicalId":318295,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings International Conference on Information Technology: Coding and Computing","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2001-04-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127538218","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}
