[EN] Content delivery in vehicular environments can serve multiple purposes, such as safety, entertainment, and news delivery that can be geographically relevant to vehicles traveling within a certain area. The traditional ...
The first step to detect when a vineyard has any type of deficiency, pest or disease is to observe its stems, its grapes and/or its leaves. To place a sensor in each leaf of every vineyard is obviously not feasible in terms ...
We propose an adaptive handover prediction (AHP) scheme for seamless mobility based wireless networks. That is, the AHP scheme incorporates fuzzy logic with AP prediction process in order to lend cognitive capability to ...
