A new complexity reduction methods of V-BLAST MIMO system in a communication channel
To design most reliable wireless communication system we need an efficient method which can be proposed in this paper is V-BLAST technique which is most powerful tool in MIMO system. To improve the channel capacity and data rate efficiently we need manifold antennas together with the transmitter and receiver. In this paper we have analyzed different equalizers performance using V-BLAST algorithm. We have proposed two methods i.e. low complexity QR algorithm and another is consecutive iterations reduction method. This methods compare with traditional finding methods such as ZF, MMSE, SIC and ML. The proposed algorithm shows that it not only reduce the computational complexity but we can achieve significant bit error rate (BER) and probability error compared to traditional VBLAST techniques
Developing the indonesian government enterprise architecture framework appropriate for Indonesian government agencies
This research was conducted to develop the Indonesian Government Enterprise Architecture (IGEA) framework which is suitable for Indonesian government agencies. Due to their complexity and expensive implementation cost, existing EA frameworks such as TOGAF and Zachman have so far not been the choice for building GEA by some countries including Australia and New Zealand. Those countries have built their own GEA namely Australia’s AGA and New Zealand’s GEA-NZ, respectively. Learning from this experience, the authors did a research to build Indonesia’s GEA or IGEA. This paper explains the research process which starts from mapping or comparing TOGAF, AGA, and GEA-NZ frameworks to get the underlying foundation for building GEA, analyzing framework artifacts, to building IGEA by adding specific Indonesian regulations and policies such as RPJMN and Nawacita. This IGEA framework is expected to become a reference for developing EA not only at institutional level but also the most important thing at national or cross institutional level, in order to increase the effectiveness of government IT spending
Randomized scheduling algorithm for virtual output queuing switch at the presence of non-uniform traffic
Virtual Output Queuing (VOQ) is a well-known queuing discipline in data switch architecture that eliminates Head Of Line (HOL) blocking issue. In VOQ scheme, for each output port, a separate FIFO is maintained by each input port. Consequently, a scheduling algorithm is required to determine the order of service to virtual queues at each time slot. Maximum Weight Matching (MWM) is a well-known scheduling algorithm that achieves the entire throughput region. Despite of outstanding attainable throughput, high complexity of MWM makes it an impractical algorithm for implementation in high-speed switches. To overcome this challenge, a number of randomized algorithms have been proposed in the literature. But they commonly perform poorly when input traffic does not uniformly select output ports. In this paper, we propose two randomized algorithms that outperform the well-known formerly proposed solutions. We exploit a method to keep a parametric number of heavy edges from the last time matching and mix it by randomly generated matching to produce a new schedule. Simulation results confirm the superior performance of the proposed algorithms
Enabling social WEB for IoT inducing ontologies from social tagging
Semantic domain ontologies are increasingly seen as the key for enabling interoperability across heterogeneous systems and sensor-based applications. The ontologies deployed in these systems and applications are developed by restricted groups of domain experts and not by semantic web experts. Lately, folksonomies are increasingly exploited in developing ontologies. The “collective intelligence”, which emerge from collaborative tagging can be seen as an alternative for the current effort at semantic web ontologies. However, the uncontrolled nature of social tagging systems leads to many kinds of noisy annotations, such as misspellings, imprecision and ambiguity. Thus, the construction of formal ontologies from social tagging data remains a real challenge. Most of researches have focused on how to discover relatedness between tags rather than producing ontologies, much less domain ontologies. This paper proposed an algorithm that utilises tags in social tagging systems to automatically generate up-to-date specific-domain ontologies. The evaluation of the algorithm, using a dataset extracted from BibSonomy, demonstrated that the algorithm could effectively learn a domain terminology, and identify more meaningful semantic information for the domain terminology. Furthermore, the proposed algorithm introduced a simple and effective method for disambiguating tags.Semantic domain ontologies are increasingly seen as the key for enabling interoperability across heterogeneous systems and sensor-based applications.

A secure deduplication scheme for encrypted data
Cloud storage (CS) is gaining much popularity nowadays because it offers low-cost and convenient network storage services. In this big data era, the explosive growth in digital data moves the users towards CS to store their massive data. This explosive growth of data causes a lot of storage pressure on CS systems because a large volume of this data is redundant. Data deduplication is a most-effective data reduction technique that identifies and eliminates the redundant data. Dynamic nature of data makes security and ownership of data as a very important issue. Proof-of-ownership schemes are a robust way to check the ownership claimed by any owner. However to protect the privacy of data, many users encrypt it before storing in CS. This method affects the deduplication process because encryption methods have varying characteristics. Convergent encryption (CE) scheme is widely used for secure data deduplication, but it destroys the message equality. Although, DupLESS provides strong privacy by enhancing CE, but it is also found insufficient. The problem with the CE-based scheme is that the user can decrypt the cloud data while he has lost his ownership. This paper addresses the problem of ownership revocation by proposing a secure deduplication scheme for encrypted data. The proposed scheme enhances the security against unauthorized encryption and poison attack on the predicted set of data
Intelligent Information System for Suspicious Human Activity Detection in Day and Night
The detection of human beings in a camera attracts more attention because of its wide range of applications such as abnormal event detection, person counting in a dense crowd, person identification, fall detection for care to elderly people, etc. Over the time, various techniques have evolved to enhance the visual information. This article presents a novel 3-D intelligent information system for identifying abnormal human activity using background subtraction, rectification, morphology, neural networks and depth estimation with a thermal camera and a pair of hand held Universal Serial Bus (USB) camera to visualize un-calibrated images. The proposed system detects strongest points using Speed-Up Robust Features (SURF). The Sum of Absolute Difference (SAD) algorithm match the strongest points detected by SURF. 3-D object model and image stitching from image sequences are carried out in the proposed work. A series of images captured from different cameras are stitched into a geometrically consistent mosaic either horizontally/vertically based on the image acquisition. 3-D image and depth estimation of un-calibrated stereo images are acquired using rectification and disparity. The background is separated from the scene using threshold approach. Features are extracted using morphological operators in order to get the skeleton. Junction points and end points of the skeleton image are obtained from the skeleton. Data set of abnormal human activity is created using supervised learning such as neural network with a thermal camera and a pair of webcam. The feature vector of an activity is compared with already created data set, if a match occurs the classifier detects abnormal human activity. Additionally the proposed algorithm performs depth estimation to measure real time distance of objects dynamically. The system use thermal camera, Intel computing stick, converter, video graphics array (VGA) to high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) and webcams. The proposed novel intelligent information system gives 94% maximum accuracy and 89% minimum accuracy for different activities, thus it effectively detects suspicious activity during day and night
Detection and Separation of Eeg Artifacts Using Wavelet Transform
Bio-medical signal processing is one of the most important techniques of multichannel sensor network and it has a substantial concentration in medical application. However, the real-time and recorded signals in multisensory instruments contains different and huge amount of noise, and great work has been completed in developing most favorable structures for estimating the signal source from the noisy signal in multichannel observations. Methods have been developed to obtain the optimal linear estimation of the output signal through the Wide-Sense-Stationary (WSS) process with the help of time-invariant filters. In this process, the input signal and the noise signal are assumed to achieve the linear output signal. During the process, the non-stationary signals arise in the bio-medical signal processing in addition to it there is no effective structure to deal with them. Wavelets transform has been proved to be the efficient tool for handling the non-stationary signals, but wavelet provide any possible way to approach multichannel signal processing. Based on the basic structure of linear estimation of non-stationary multichannel data and statistical models of spatial signal coherence acquire through the wavelet transform in multichannel estimation. The above methods can be used for Electroencephalography (EEG) signal denoising through the original signal and then implement the noise reduction technique to evaluate their performance such as SNR, MSE and computation time

A Proposed DDS Enabled Model for Data Warehouses with Real Time Updates
Data warehouse generally contains both types of data i.e. historical & current data from various data sources. Data warehouse in world of computing can be defined as system created for analysis and reporting of these both types of data. These analysis report is then used by an organization to make decisions which helps them in their growth. Construction of data warehouse appears to be simple, collection of data from data sources into one place (after extraction, transform and loading). But construction involves several issues such as inconsistent data, logic conflicts, user acceptance, cost, quality, security, stake holder’s contradictions, REST alignment etc. These issues need to be overcome otherwise will lead to unfortunate consequences affecting the organization growth. Proposed model tries to solve these issues such as REST alignment, stake holder’s contradiction etc. by involving experts of various domains such as technical, analytical, decision makers, management representatives etc. during initialization phase to better understand the requirements and mapping these requirements to data sources during design phase of data warehouse
Addressing Latency Issues in 2D to 3D Conversion: Deploying Available Synthetic Database
Conventional 2D to 3D rendering techniques involve a sequential process of grouping of the input images based on edge information and predictive algorithms to assign depth values to pixels with same hue. The iterative calculations and volume of data under scrutiny to assign ‘real-time’ values raise latency issues and cost considerations. For commercial consumption, where speed and accuracy define the viability of a product, there is a need to reorient the approach used in the present methodologies. In predictive methodologies one of the core interests is achieving the initial approximation as close to the ‘real’ value as possible. In this work, ‘synthetic’ database is used to provide the first approximation through comparison techniques and fed to the predictive tool. It is believed that this work will provide a basis for developing an efficient 2D to 3D conversion methodology
