An investigative discussion of Rabindranath Tagore's political philosophy in his travel writings, especially with regard to his vision of the twin ideologies of Empire and Nation.

A heterogeneous distributed sensor network (HDSN) is a type of distributed sensor network where sensors with different deployment groups and different functional types participate at the same time. In other words, the sensors are divided into different deployment groups according to different types of data transmissions, but they cooperate with eac

Commentary Isham B. Pawan Ahmad, Malaysia Philip Cam’s reexamination on the ways of conceptualizing the global from a philosophical perspective through analyzing three cognates with the global: the universal, the holistic and the macrocosmic is extremely thought provoking. Cam’s attempt to evaluate what most see as a contemporary economic devel

A Heterogeneous Distributed Sensor Network (HDSN) is a type of distributed sensor network where sensors with different functional types participate at the same time. In this sensor network model, the sensors are associated with different deployment groups but they cooperate with each other within and out of their respective groups. The heterogeneit

This paper includes the findings of an experimental study on instabilities of the chip formation process during end milling of Ti6Al4V alloy and the influence of these instabilities on chatter formation. It has been identified that the chip formation process has a discrete nature, associated with the periodic shearing process during machining. The

A wireless sensor is a small, low-cost, low-powered device with sensing, wireless communication, and computation capabilities. While the tiny size and low cost of sensors make them lucrative for use in various applications and services, the constraints associated with those also curb exploitation of computation intensive tasks. This in fact comes a

Dynamic change in cutting force is one of the major causes of chatter formation in metal cutting which affect machining accuracy. Thus, accurate modeling of cutting force is necessary for the prediction of machining performance and determination of the mechanisms and machining parameters that affect the stability of machining operations. The presen

Titanium alloys are being widely used in the aerospace, biomedical and automotive industries because of their good strength-to-weight ratio and superior corrosion resistance. Surface roughness is one of the most important requirements in machining of Titanium alloys. This paper describes mathematically the effect of cutting parameters on Surface ro

Serious vibrations are often encountered due to chip segmentation that limits material removal rates. Different types of chips are formed during machining. The nature of chip formation process is extremely complicated. Chip formation process has a discrete nature, associated with the periodic shearing process of the chip during machining of Inconel

Security in wireless sensor network (WSN) encompasses a great number of challenges; ranging from the nature of wireless communications, constrained resources of the sensors, unknown topologies of the deployed networks, unattended and accessible environment where sensors might be susceptible to physical attacks, dense and large networks, etc. In gen
