This book comprises 15 chapters and encompasses a wide range of VOIP research, from VOIP quality assessment to security issues. Much of the content is focused on the key areas of VOIP performance investigation and enhancement. Each chapter includes various approaches that illustrate how VOIP...

VLSI covers many phases of design and fabrication of integrated circuits. In a complete VLSI design process, it often involves system definition, architecture design, register transfer language (RTL) coding, pre and post synthesis design verification, timing analysis, and chip layout for...

This report summarizes the work accomplished during the period of May 16, 1998 - September 30, 1999, under the NASA Langley Research Center Grant No. NAG-I-2055.

A study to anticipate the depreciation (due to wear and tear) and lifespan on the components of a gas turbine engine.

An overview on the applications of mass inertia vibration on control systems for buildings and skyscrapers as opposed to other control systems such as the EMD control system.

A presentation on the structures of passive permanent magnet bearings. From the simplest bearing with two axially polarized ring magnets to the more complicated one with stacked rings having perpendicular polarizations, the structures are described and studied.

A study on the modelling and the experimental validation of different types of electromagnetic actuators used to damp the vibration in mechanical structures and machines.

A preview on the application of Ultra Wideband Oscillators in designing wireless technology devices covering wide bandwidth over several gigahertz.

A paper about the process of method control that has been in use in the process industries of nonlinear systems.

An overview on the effect of biofouling to a seawater cooled power plant cooling water system.
