(2009)
Risk Management has become an important part of Project Management. In spite
of numerous advances in the field of Project Risk Management (PRM), handling
uncertainty in complex projects still remains a challenge. An ...
Cooperative control of relay based cellular networks
(2009)
The increasing popularity of wireless communications and the higher data
requirements of new types of service lead to higher demands on wireless networks.
Relay based cellular networks have been seen as an effective way ...
A hierarchal framework for recognising activities of daily life
(2009)
In today’s working world the elderly who are dependent can sometimes be
