We apply the concept of attractor selection by modeling the path selection process in multipath overlay as a stochastic dynamical system that instantaneously converges to a sufficiently good solution utilizing the system inherent noise to provide a robust and adaptive mechanism. Our method is inspired by a mathematical model for the stochastic dynamics of gene regulatory networks. Simple numerical simulations will show that this proposed method is stable to changes in the environment and adaptable to the objective function, which is in our case the buffer occupancy level of the destination node in an overlay network.","PeriodicalId":435116,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Symposium on Applied Sciences on Biomedical and Communication Technologies","volume":"292 ","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"120932611","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 filter is used to shift the resonant frequency with its transition band. Assuming the response of sensor is Gaussian distributed near resonant frequency, we can estimate the bandwidth of resonance from the shifted frequency. According to some findings in Quarts Crystal Microbalance (QCM) theory, the resonance bandwidth of crystal is affected by the viscosity loading. So our circuit method can be used to measure the viscosity of biological tissue. Since no DSP components are involved here for spectrum analysis, our method will be a low-cost and competitive solution for the viscosity sensing in medical application.","PeriodicalId":435116,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Symposium on Applied Sciences on Biomedical and Communication Technologies","volume":"128 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121327505","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}

In this paper, we look at wearable BAN, which provides communication links among sensors on body surface. In order to design a BAN that manages biologic information with high efficiency and high reliability, the propagation characteristics of BAN must be thoroughly investigated. As a preliminary effort, we measured the propagation characteristics of BAN at frequency bands of 400 MHz, 600 MHz, 900 MHz, and 2400 MHz respectively. Channel models for wearable BAN based on the measurement results were derived. Our results show that the channel models can be described by using a path loss model for all investigated frequency bands.","PeriodicalId":435116,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Symposium on Applied Sciences on Biomedical and Communication Technologies","volume":"13 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127506078","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}

We propose and compare novel backoff mechanisms to achieve adaptively the desired scheduling among a number of sensors that contend for their access to the wireless medium. The method considered models the interactions among sensors as that of pulse coupled oscillators (PCO), which have been widely studied in mathematical biology to capture the interaction among biological entities (such as neurons) and the emergence of firing patterns in their networks. Modeling our sensors as UWB pulse emitters, our interest in this paper is to discuss strategies that allow the sensors to interleave their pulsing activities in a sequence so as to provide a frame subdivision for the collision free transmissions. The bio-inspired algorithm featured is a useful network primitive for multiple access in highly scalable sensor networks, which adds on to the well known primitive for network synchronization where PCO models are popular for.","PeriodicalId":435116,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Symposium on Applied Sciences on Biomedical and Communication Technologies","volume":"42 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124863600","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}

Ambient home care systems (AHCS) are specially design for this purpose; they aim at minimizing the potential risks that living alone may suppose for an elder, thanks to their capability of gathering data of the user, inferring information about his activity and state, and taking decisions on it. In this paper, we present a number of context-aware services (heart rate monitoring, medication prompting, generation of agenda reminders, weather alerts, emergency notifications, etc.) for the elder and his caregivers. They run on the top of an AHCS, which collects data from a network of environmental, health and physical sensors. The AHCS follows a layered fusion architecture, formed by an in-home developed context acquisition framework and a context manager (customized on the Context Toolkit) that holds the inference and reasoning functionalities. On the deployed prototype, we analyze the suitability of the selected technical approach for ambient assisted living applications.","PeriodicalId":435116,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Symposium on Applied Sciences on Biomedical and Communication Technologies","volume":"27 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126084580","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}

Its physical principle exploits the different dielectric characteristics of normal and tumoral breast tissues. In 2007 a study evaluated the dielectric properties of normal (adipose, glandular and fibroconnective), malignant (invasive and non-invasive ductal and lobular carcinomas) and benign (fibroadenomas and cysts) breast tissue samples obtained from cancer surgeries and breast reduction. The analyses showed that the contrast in the microwave-frequency dielectric properties between malignant lesions and glandular/fibroconnective tissues in the breast is no more than 10%. It is therefore fundamental to add to the electromagnetic issues signal processing reconstruction techniques that could improve the capability to correctly reconstruct the dielectric profile of the examined tissue. In this work we present different signal processing algorithms applied on microwave imaging of a phantom of the breast, analyzing their performances in order to migrate to clinical test campaigns on patients.","PeriodicalId":435116,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Symposium on Applied Sciences on Biomedical and Communication Technologies","volume":"37 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122330170","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 jet also induces two main vortices which contribute significantly to the convective mixing of the cerebrospinal fluid.

The radio energy model is a function of parameter sets that are typically found in radio specifications. The protocols are compared for five different parameter sets, corresponding to five different existing radios. The CT protocol is the Opportunistic Large Array (OLA). The non-CT protocol simply selects one node from the cluster to forward the packet, but other nodes in the cluster that do not relay are assumed to overhear or decode at least part of the packets. The relative energy consumption is determined as a function of the fraction of the data packet that is decoded by the node for decision-making.

Acquisition of respiration in a clinical environment is usually accomplished by standard hospital equipment and minimum invasive techniques. In this paper a non invasive technique is used for respiration monitoring based on accelerometers. The acquired signal is sampled and transmitted through a wireless sensor network to the gateway point (sink) where it is processed. Empirical Mode Decomposition (EMD) is considered as a method of processing of biosignals such as respiration and the application of the decomposition method in experimental signals acquired by means of a wireless sensor network is evaluated. The processing technique covered in this paper is based on selecting the appropriate signals (IMF) in which respiration is decomposed, by their spectral characteristics that correspond to respiration.","PeriodicalId":435116,"journal":{"name":"2008 First International Symposium on Applied Sciences on Biomedical and Communication Technologies","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2008-12-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132883832","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}
