Security threats are crucial challenges that deter Mixed reality (MR) communication in medical telepresence. This research aims to improve the security by reducing the chances of types of various attacks occurring during the real-time data transmission in surgical telepresence as well as reduce the time of the cryptographic algorithm and keep the quality of the media used. The proposed model consists of an enhanced RC6 algorithm in combination. Dynamic keys are generated from the RC6 algorithm mixed with RC4 to create dynamic S-box and permutation table, preventing various known attacks during the real-time data transmission. For every next session, a new key is created, avoiding possible reuse of the same key from the attacker. The results obtained from our proposed system are showing better performance compared to the state of art. The resistance to the tested attacks is measured throughout the entropy, Pick to Signal Noise Ratio (PSNR) is decreased for the encrypted image than the state of art, structural similarity index (SSIM) closer to zero. The execution time of the algorithm is decreased for an average of 20%. The proposed system is focusing on preventing the brute force attack occurred during the surgical telepresence data transmission. The paper proposes a framework that enhances the security related to data transmission during surgeries with acceptable performance.
Inter-plant hydrogen integration (IPHI) is getting more attention in recent years, as a result of the increasing demand for hydrogen in refinery processes, such as hydrotreating and hydrocracking. In this work, IPHI with regeneration scheme is analyzed. Indirect integration scheme is adopted, where hydrogen sources from different hydrogen networks are integrated via a centralized purifier, such as pressure swing adsorption (PSA) or membrane separation. The introduced model is able to select the optimum interception unit, which minimizes the total annualized cost. Besides, multi-period consideration is included in the analysis to address the effect of changes in operating conditions of the IPHI network on total hydrogen consumption. Two case studies are presented to demonstrate the applicability and usefulness of the proposed model. 相似文献
ABSTRACTThis paper focuses on the social aspects of food consumption in the public realm and how built environment design should include places for conviviality. Current urban planning may fulfil human needs, but in some cases, individuals have unpleasant experiences while meeting these needs. A review of existing literature indicates that studies of conviviality during food consumption has focused on design qualities. To investigate the Egyptian experiences in food consumption, the current study employed qualitative and quantitative approaches through four streams of data collection: observations, interviews, opinionnaire and permeability analysis of catchment areas. The results provide design implications for conviviality of food practices to discover the multilateral dimensions of design that can make social interactions part of a satisfying experience. This research concludes that for conviviality attached to food consumption, it is essential to focus on replicable aspects like supporting activities, social settings, and the design based on intent. 相似文献

Bond behavior between corrosion damaged reinforced concrete and carbon fiber reinforced concrete polymer (CFRP) sheets was experimentally investigated. Forty ordinary strength concrete blocks (150 × 150 × 200 mm) were reinforced at one side across the 200-mm-dimension using three conventional ?12 mm steel bars at a spacing of (30, 40, and 50 mm) at a concrete clear cover of 15 mm. Thirty blocks were subjected to a cyclic treatment in 3% chloride solution until corrosion initiated and resulted in three different global cracking widths of up to 0.90 mm. Both control and corrosion damaged blocks were attached to CFRP sheets over their steel reinforced zone at bond lengths and widths ranging from (90 to 150 mm) and (50 to 150 mm), respectively, with CFRP bond length-to-bar spacing ratio kept constant at 1/3. Near-end pull-off tests were carried out using a special setup, mounted on a Universal Testing machine. Corrosion cracking caused significant reductions in bond strength, and slippage at ultimate stress at (41 and 68%), respectively. Other bond characteristics such as stress at first slippage, and bond stiffness and toughness were reduced, as well, by as high as (83, 44 and 67%) of those of control specimens, respectively. Corrosion cracks were more detrimental for smaller bond length and width values; especially after first and second corrosion stages, where bond failure was categorized by concrete skin peeling-off. 相似文献
In this paper, the quality metrics suite for object oriented (OO) design is partially used as an initial concept to develop metrics for statically measuring quality of KADS-domain knowledge bases. KADS-domain knowledge bases have common characteristics with OO, and other distinct features that limit the usage of some OO quality metrics. Therefore, new sets of domain knowledge quality metrics are proposed. The proposed matrices are enriched with an automatic tool used to measure quality of real world expert systems. In order to assess the effectiveness of these proposed quality metrics, these metrics were applied on a sample of real world agriculture application domains developed by CLAES (The Central Laboratory of Agriculture Expert System). Finally, complete analysis of the results obtained due to applying these metrics is presented. 相似文献
This study explores the idea that all public urban places should be planned and designed keeping children in mind. Children from urban places are exposed to different types of urban and social problems. While many Western cities address the needs of children and young people, Egyptian cities overlook children’s needs and behaviours, especially in architectural terms. This study attempts to place Egyptian children at the centre of the urban agenda based on universal laws that secure children. The contribution provides procedures and design principles. A survey in Cairo was conducted through interviews with children and their parents. The results indicate that a child-friendly community can be created for positive social interaction between children, families and the built environment. The result also suggests that a third place will be the most appropriate area where a child-friendly community can be created. Such places are crucial for learning how children interact as they grow up because they are places where informal activities take place. The research concludes that for an improved built environment, it is important to focus on children’s lives in third places and what designers provide or hinder with normative design principles through the process of creating child-friendly cities. 相似文献
The risk of malaria recurrence increases due to the main vector, Anopheles pharoensis. The physiological age of the mosquito population is needed to expect malaria vector dynamics. The number of completed gonotrophic cycles is of great importance in determining the physiological age of females. A technique has been described that focuses on the number of dilatations remaining in the ovarioles after each oviposition to determine how many blood meals have been taken. At each gonotrophic cycle, the chances of infection of the vectors are repeated. The histological changes that occur immediately in the ovarioles and ovulation itself were studied. Under the influence of the contractions of the ovarian muscles, the eggs begin to move over the distal end of the ovariole into the inner oviduct. The terminal pedicle is markedly dilated near the diameter of the eggs. After the expulsion of the mature eggs, ovariole dilations were found at the point of their development in the terminal pedicle due to the accumulation of nurse cell remnants and follicular epithelium. The results were used to develop epidemiological localization and to evaluate the effectiveness of antimalaria interventions. The ovarian inspection often provides a technique to distinguish nulliparous from parous female anophelines. In addition, this study can provide basic entomological knowledge on the physiological age of mosquitoes by considering the histological changes in the ovaries, which allow the evaluation of vector management strategies in the field. 相似文献
