This talk is about the critical tips and points for publishing Books and Book chapters from the author's perspective. Author's view of the issue is different often than the view of the publisher. 19 Jul 2013 Dear Dr. Al-Sakib Khan Pathan, Invitation: 2013 Springer SEA eBooks Seminar Springer is one of the world’s largest internationa l pu

This chapter presents a different approach of tackling intruders in Wireless Mesh Networks (WMN). Traditional approach of intruder detection and prevention suggests purging out intruders immediately after their detection. In our work, we take a different approach to tackle intruder rather than purging it out of the network unless it is marked as a

The security mechanisms for various wired networks are more or less well-defined. Especially when intrusion detection and prevention techniques are considered, wired networks appear to be in a much better status than their wireless counter-parts. Indeed, security concerns are, still, a significant impediment to widespread adoption of wireless netwo

This article explores the potential role of Fi-Wi (Fibre-Wireless) networks in supporting the future cloud computing model. As Fi-Wi could be the next wave of advancements in networking and communications infrastructure considering the current trends, the article analyses various facets of the issue from theoretical and practical perspectives. This

Persicaria odorata is a common plant and well known locally as “daun kesum” that is usually used in culinary and have various medicinal properties. This study is conducted to investigate the antimicrobial activity and the chemical constituent of the most active extract. The leaves were extracted using n-hexane, dichloromethane, methanol and wat

Scientific instruments often undergo calibration to ensure that they will produce results that meet or exceed defined criteria within a specified degree of confidence. Such calibration almost always refers to mechanical instruments, those used primarily in the physical sciences. Rarely is the notion of calibration used in relation to the social and

Handheld computing devices are now almost everywhere at the hands of technology dependent people of all ages. This rapid expansion of the number of mobile computing users has given rise of various research topics. Both the academia and the industries are looking for new ideas how to best-utilize the mobile computing power at the hands of consumers.

For the last two-three decades in an attempt to predict most likely outcomes of public elections different methods and techniques have been developed and employed by social scientists to produce empirical evidence of a predictive power. This study is focusing on application of analytic hierarchy process (AHP) as a tool to forecast most likely winni

Recent developments in wireless/wired sensor networks allowed the application of stationary sensors capable of continuously collecting and transmitting hydraulic and water quality measurements at fine temporal resolution. The constantly updating data allows achieving an improved representation of the system state, modeling, and control. The deploym
