Abstract — This paper presents an integrated framework of Geographic Information System (GIS), Android Platform and a Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) equipped with interactive communication capabilities. The model integrates the design of the database and the management of implementation of the monitoring system which includes the operations of query and analysis using the web and desktop applications. This study aims to apply techniques of analysis of the road network in a GIS to collect geographic data on the monitoring station and the roads. The information on road infrastructure is not only useful for locating monitoring stations, but it is also important to guide a station to follow the shortest path to achieve the objectives of management and routing. Optimal routes based on the minimum cost are identified using Dijkstra’s algorithm. This paper also presents a software development on Android Platform which applies Cell Identifier method for improving the accuracy of location, it is not necessary to have an Internet connection as the requesting emergency can use a Short Message Service (SMS) to request an urgent service. The proposed system should be an effective and intelligent tool for a rapid intervention and to improve the monitoring of the road network which can eventually be extended to a national infrastructure of GIS. Simulated test cases have been carried out for network of Mohammedia City in Morocco.

Keywords: GIS; Location; Routing; SMS; Android; Cell Identifier.

Abstract - Image fusion combines several images of same object or scene so that the final output image contains more information. The main requirement of the fusion process is to identify the most significant features in the input images and to transfer them without loss into the fused image. In this paper many pixel level fusion techniques like DCT averaging, PCA, Haar wavelet and Kekre’s wavelet transform techniques for image fusion are proposed and compared. The main advantage of Kekre’s transform matrix is that it can be of any size NxN, which need not to be an integer power of 2. From NxN Kekre’s transform matrix, we can generate Kekre’s Wavelet transform matrices of size (2N) x (2N), (3N)x(3N),……, (N2)x(N2).

Abstract — Recently, network attacks have increased to a greater extent. Hackers and intruders can produce several successful efforts to cause the crash of the networks and web services by illegal intrusion. New threats and interrelated solutions to avoid these threats are budding jointly with the secured system evolution. So, Intrusion Detection System (IDS) has become an active area of research in the field of network security. The optimization of IDS becomes an attractive domain due to the security audit data as well as complex and active properties of intrusion behaviors. The main purpose of IDS is to protect the resources from threats. Intrusion Detection System examines and calculates the user behavior, and then these behaviors will be considered an attack or a normal behavior. Intrusion detection systems have been integrated with data mining approaches to identify intrusions. There are various data mining approaches such as classification tree, Support Vector Machines, etc., used for intrusion detection. In this paper, thorough investigations have been done on the existing data mining approaches to detect intrusions.

Abstract — This paper presents a new Trusted On-demand Distance Vector (TODV) routing protocol that is dynamic and robust to mitigate the detrimental effects of nodes’ malicious behavior, as to provide correct connectivity information. This protocol filters erroneous query and routing information, and determines a route that only involves trustworthy hosts. The operation of TODV is loop free, and can distinguish between local connectivity management (neighborhood detection) and general topology maintenance. When links break, TODV causes the affected set of nodes to be notified so that they are able to invalidate the routes using the lost link. The widely accepted technique in a Mobile Ad hoc NETwork (MANET) context of route discovery based on broadcasting query packets is the basis of the protocol. The protocol is an enhancement of the Ad hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol to ensure that only trustworthy nodes participate in the network. On the other hand it still maintains most of the features of the AODV. The proposed protocol scales to large populations of mobile nodes wishing to form ad hoc networks and can be applied in a wide variety of practical cases.

Abstract — The paper presents a performance analysis of Multilevel Block Truncation Coding based Face Recognition among widely used color spaces. In [1], Multilevel Block Truncation Coding was applied on the RGB color space up to four levels for face recognition. Better results were obtained when the proposed technique was implemented using Kekre’s LUV (K’LUV) color space [25]. This was the motivation to test the proposed technique using assorted color spaces. For experimental analysis, two face databases are used. First one is “Face Database”, developed by Dr.Libor Spacek which has 1000 face images and the second one is “Our Own Database” which has 1600 face images. The experimental results showed that Block Truncation Level 4 (BTC-Level 4) gave the best result in every color space. It is observed that the proposed technique functions better in the YIQ color space.

Abstract – This paper presents Multi-Platform System Administration (MPSA) software for administrating and controlling different operating systems such as Linux and Windows system, based on XML-RPC technique and Python libraries. MPSA software consists of two distinct components: Administration server and administration agent. The server components, work on Linux system, are responsible for communicating with the agents, sending the queries, and retrieve the performance and status data from them. Administration agent, that can be working either in Linux or Windows system, is going to proxy the server requests to build functions and pass the results back to server. MPSA introduces many services, such as processes management, resource management, gathering system information, system booting, and file browser, by using the advantages of XML-RPC. MPSA services were implemented to work on the background at the administration Agents, so that the software works in a hidden manner without needing to agents permission or attention.

Abstract — Biometric time and attendance system is one of the most successful applications of biometric technology. One of the main advantage of a biometric time and attendance system is it avoids "buddy-punching". Buddy punching was a major loophole which will be exploiting in the traditional time attendance systems. Fingerprint recognition is an established field today, but still identifying individual from a set of enrolled fingerprints is a time taking process. Most fingerprint-based biometric systems store the minutiae template of a user in the database. It has been traditionally assumed that the minutiae template of a user does not reveal any information about the original fingerprint. This belief has now been shown to be false; several algorithms have been proposed that can reconstruct fingerprint images from minutiae templates. In this paper, a novel fingerprint reconstruction algorithm is proposed to reconstruct the phase image, which is then converted into the grayscale image. The proposed reconstruction algorithm reconstructs the phase image from minutiae. The proposed reconstruction algorithm is used to automate the whole process of taking attendance, manually which is a laborious and troublesome work and waste a lot of time, with its managing and maintaining the records for a period of time is also a burdensome task. The proposed reconstruction algorithm has been evaluated with respect to the success rates of type-I attack (match the reconstructed fingerprint against the original fingerprint) and type-II attack (match the reconstructed fingerprint against different impressions of the original fingerprint) using a commercial fingerprint recognition system. Given the reconstructed image from our algorithm, we show that both types of attacks can be effectively launched against a fingerprint recognition system.

Abstract— Mobility models or the movement patterns of nodes communicating wirelessely, play a vital role in the simulation-based evaluation of vehicular Ad Hoc Networks (VANETs). Even though recent research has developed models that better corresponds to real world mobility, we still have a limited understanding of the level of the required level of mobility details for modeling and simulating VANETs. In this paper, we propose a new mobility model for VANETs that works on the city area and map the topology of streets and behavior of vehicles at the intersection of roads. Our model change the speed of nodes after some specific distance in accordance to neighboring nodes that is according to a density of nodes, so that this will lead to a realistic situation on the roads. Our model accounts the various characteristics of VANETs such as traffic lights, acceleration/deceleration due to nearby vehicles, attraction points where maximum numbers of vehicle tends to go. Using the real and controlled map of street, we compare our mobility model with the random direction mobility model. Our result demonstrates that probability of link availability in VANETs is more sensitive to the vehicles waiting at intersections and acceleration/deceleration of vehicles. We also found that probability of link availability suffers at the intersection of the roads; because of some nodes cross the signal continue movement in horizontal direction while some nodes change the direction of traveling to vertical.

Abstract — Organizing images into meaningful categories using low level or high level features is an important task in image databases. Although image classification has been studied for many years, it is still a challenging problem within multimedia and computer vision. In this paper the generic image classification approach using different transforms is proposed. The two main steps in image classification are feature extraction and classification algorithm. This paper proposes to generate feature vector from image transform. The paper also investigates the effectiveness of different transforms (Discrete Fourier Transform, Discrete Cosine Transform, Discrete Sine Transform, Hartley and Walsh Transform) in classification task. The size of feature vector also varied to see its impact on the result. Classification is done using nearest neighbor classifier. Euclidean and Manhattan distance is used to calculate the similarity measure. Images from the Wang database are used to carry out the experiments. The experimental results and detailed analysis are presented.

Abstract - SOAP is a simple XML-based protocol specification to let applications exchange information over HTTP. SOAP describes envelope and message formats, and has a basic request/response handshake protocol. A SOAP message could be sent to a web-service enabled web site such as a real-estate price database, with the parameters needed for a search. The site would then return an XML formatted document with the resulting data, e.g., prices, location, features. With the data being returned in a standardized machine-parseable format, it can then be integrated directly into a third party web site or application. SOAPpy provides tools for building SOAP clients and servers. SOAPpy is very simple to use and that fully supports dynamic interaction between clients and servers.

Abstract --- Temperature warnings are essential forecasts since they are utilized to guard life and property. Temperature forecasting is the kind of science and technology to approximate the temperature for a future time and for a given place. Temperature forecasts are performed by means of gathering quantitative data regarding the in progress state of the atmosphere. The author in this paper utilized a neural network-based technique for determining the temperature in future. The Neural Networks package consists of various kinds of training or learning techniques. One such technique is Adaptive Neuro Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS) technique. The main advantage of the ANFIS technique is that it can reasonably estimated a large class of functions. This technique is more efficient than numerical differentiation. The simple meaning of this term is that the proposed technique has ability to confine the complex relationships among several factors that contribute to assured temperature. The proposed idea is tested using the real time dataset. In order to further improve the prediction accuracy, this paper uses Modified Levenberg-Marquardt (LM) Algorithm for Neural Network learning. In modified LM, the learning parameters are modified. The proposed algorithm has good convergence and also it reduces the amount of oscillation in learning procedure. The proposed technique is compare with the usage of ANFIS and the practical working of meteorological department. The experimental result shows that the proposed technique results in better accuracy of prediction when compared to the conventional technique of weather prediction.
