This paper presents recommended methodologies for the quantitative analysis of landslide hazard, vulnerability and risk at different spatial scales (site-specific, local, regional and national), as well as for the verification and validation of the results.
A first-rate e-Health system saves lives, provides better patient care, allows complex but useful epidemiologic analysis and saves money. However, there may also be concerns about the costs and complexities associated with e-health implementation, and the need to solve issues about the energy footprint of the high-demanding computing facilities.
Modern consumer devices must execute multimedia applications that exhibit high resource utilization. In order to efficiently execute these applications, the dynamic memory subsystem needs to be optimized. This complex task can be tackled in two complementary ways: optimizing the application source code or designing custom dynamic memory management mechanisms.
This paper presents a system for the search and detection of moving objects in a sequence of images previously captured by a camera installed in a conventional vehicle. The objective is the design and implementation of a software system based on optical flow analysis to detect and identify moving objects as perceived by a driver, taking into account that these objects could interfere with the driver’s behavior, either through distraction or by posing an actual danger that may require an active response.
One of the main obstacles to the widespread adoption of quantum cryptography has been the difficulty of integration into standard optical networks, largely due to the tremendous difference in power of classical signals compared with the single quantum used for quantum key distribution.
We study several properties of disjointly homogeneous Banach lattices with a special focus on two questions: the self-duality of this class and the existence of disjoint sequences spanning complemented subspaces.
