Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 9A Layered Security Architecture for Corporate 802.11 Wireless Networks(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2004) Erten,Y.M.; Tomur,E.In this study we have investigated the security aspects of wireless local area networks and discussed the weaknesses associated with various conventional 802.11 security protocols such as WEP and 802.1x. We propose an architecture to control access to corporate 802.11 wireless networks, based on the privileges and location of users, using the tested wired network components such as VPNs and Firewalls. The presented architecture reduces the security risks in enterprise level deployment of wireless LANs.Article Citation - WoS: 72Citation - Scopus: 75On the Lupas q-analogue of the Bernstein Operator(Rocky Mt Math Consortium, 2006) Ostrovska, SofiyaLet R-n(f,q;x) : C[0, 1] -> C[0, 1] be q-analogues of the Bernstein operators defined by Lupas in 1987. If q = 1, then R-n (f, 1; x) are classical Bernstein polynomials. For q not equal 1, the operators R-n (f, q; x) are rational functions rather than polynomials. The paper deals with convergence properties of the sequence {R-n (f, q; x)}. It is proved that {R-n (f, q(n); x)} converges uniformly to f(x) for any f(x) is an element of C[0, 1] if and only if q(n) -> 1. In the case q > 0, q not equal 1 being fixed the sequence I R. (f, q; x) I converges uniformly to f(x) is an element of C[0, 1] if and only if f(x) is linear.Conference Object Citation - WoS: 2Object-Oriented Inheritance Metrics: Cognitive Complexity Perspective(Springer-verlag Berlin, 2009) Mishra, Deepti; Mishra, AlokIdentifying high cognitive complexity modules can lead to a better quality software system and can help during maintenance also. It has been found that inheritance has an impact on cognitive complexity of a software system. In this paper, two inheritance metrics based on cognitive complexity, one at class level CCI (Class Complexity due to Inheritance) and another at program level ACI (Average Complexity of a program due to Inheritance), have been proposed for object-oriented software systems. These metrics are also compared with other well known object-oriented inheritance metrics.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 8Modeling-Error Based Adaptive Fuzzy Sliding Mode Control for Trajectory-Tracking of Nonlinear Systems(2003) Yu,S.; Yu,X.; Efe,M.O.A novel adaptive fuzzy sliding mode control design is developed for trajectory tracking of a class of nonlinear systems in this paper. This control design uses the modelling error to adaptively estimate the deterministic uncertainties as well as the control gain based on the fuzzy systems approach. By this design, the bounds of the uncertainties are not required to be known in advance, and the robust stability of closed loop systems is analysed in the Lyapunov sense. Simulation results are given to demonstrate the improved performance.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 16Target Tracking Using Artificial Potentials and Sliding Mode Control(2004) Gazi,V.; Ordóñez,R.In this article we develop an algorithm for capturing/intercepting a moving target based on the sliding mode control method. First, we consider a "kinematic" model (in a sense) for the capture/intercept problem and develop a method for that case. Then, we build on the developed method to include general fully actuated vehicle dynamics for the pursuer agent. The algorithm is robust with respect to the system uncertainties and additive disturbances. Finally, we also provide a numerical simulation in order to illustrate the procedure.Article Citation - WoS: 4Citation - Scopus: 3The Euler-Lagrange Theory for Schur's Algorithm: Wall Pairs(Academic Press inc Elsevier Science, 2006) Khrushchev, SThis paper develops a techniques of Wall pairs for the study of periodic exposed quadratic irrationalities in the unit ball of the Hardy algebra.

Constant potential electrolysis (CPE) of the monomers in acetonitrile-water mixture (1: 1 by volume) using NaClO4 as supporting electrolyte yielded soluble polymers. The mechanism of electrochemical polymerization was investigated using in situ electron spin resonance (ESR) and in situ UV-VIS spectroscopic techniques for one of the monomers (4FAN). Both CV and in situ LTV-VIS measurements indicated that the polymers obtained are in the emeraldine base form. In situ ESR studies indicated that electrochemical polymerization involves a radical-cation as an intermediate. Characterization of polymer products have been carried out using FTIR and NMR spectroscopic techniques, and thermal behaviour was studied using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). It was found that conductivity can be imparted to assynthesized polyfluoroanilines via iodine doping.

In the framework of small deformations, a state of plane strain and von Mises yield criterion, analytical expressions are obtained for critical values of the pressure leading to plastic flow. It is shown that, depending on material properties and tube dimensions, different modes of plastic deformation may occur. Yielding may commence at the inner tube or at the outer tube or simultaneously in both tubes. The conditions for different nature of plastic flow are determined. Using analytical expressions obtained for critical values of the parameters and properties of real engineering materials, various numerical examples are handled and the variation of elastic limit pressure with interference and interface radius is explained.Article Citation - WoS: 7Computation of a Tunable Slot-Loaded Equilateral Triangular Microstrip Antenna(Vsp Bv, 2009) Aydin, E.In this paper, a simple closed form expression is developed to accurately estimate the lower and upper operating frequencies of a single feed slot loaded triangular patch (SLTP) with variations of the bent slot lengths. It is obtained by using cavity model analysis and useful to antenna engineers for accurately predicting both operating resonant frequencies of the SLTP. The theory is compared with the experimental results available in the literature, and excellent agreement is observed. The proposed computation is also extended to the analysis of tunability of the SLTP as a function of the air-gap height.Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Space-charge-limited currents and photoconductive properties of Tl2InGaSe4 layered crystals(Taylor & Francis Ltd, 2008) Qasrawi, A. F.; Gasanly, N. M.The extrinsic electronic parameters of Tl2InGaSe4 layered crystals were investigated through measurement of the temperature-dependent dark conductivity, space-charge-limited currents and photoconductivity. Analysis of the dark conductivity reveals the existence of two extrinsic energy levels at 0.40 and 0.51 eV below the conduction band edge, which are dominant above and below 260 K, respectively. Current-voltage characteristics show that the one at 0.51 eV is a trapping energy level with a concentration of (4.8-7.7) x 10(10) cm(3). Photoconductivity measurements reveal the existence of another energy level located at 0.16 eV. In the studied temperature range, the photocurrent increases with increasing temperature. The dependence of the photoconductivity on the incident light intensity exhibits a linear recombination character near room temperature and a supralinear character as the temperature decreases. The change in recombination mechanism is attributed to an exchange in the behavior of sensitizing and recombination centres.
