Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSPECKLE REDUCTION IN ULTRASOUND IMAGES USING NEIGHSHRINK AND BILATERAL FILTERINGR. Vanithamani, G. UmamaheswariSpeckle is a random multiplicative noise which obscures the perception and extraction of fine details in ultrasound images and speckle reduction is necessary to improve the visual quality of ultrasound images for better diagnosis. This study aims at introducing an algorithm by hybridizing bilateral filter with NeighShrink. The bilateral filter is applied before decomposition and after reconstruction of the image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2013 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Multi-Path Routing for Load Balancing in Mobile Ad Hoc NetworksS. Soundararajan, R. S. BhuvaneswaranProblem statement: Load balancing and network congestion are the major problems in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks (MANET) routing. Most of the existing routing protocols provide solutions to load balancing or congestion or fault-tolerance, individually. Approach: We propose congestion controlled adaptive multi-path routing protocol to achieve load balancing and avoid congestion in MANETs. The algorithm for finding multi-path routes computes fail-safe multiple … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 18 Feb 2012 · 7,451 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Interaction between Congestion-Control Based Transport Protocols and Manet Routing ProtocolsKhuzairi Mohd Zaini, Adib M. Monzer Habbal, Fazli Azzali et al.Problem statement: Although many efforts have been done on studying the behaviour of TCP in MANET, but the behaviour of TFRC remain unclear in MANET. The purpose of this research is two folds. First, we studied the behaviour of TFRC and TCP over AODV and DSR as the underlying routing protocols in terms of throughput, delay and jitter. The second … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 28 Jan 2012 · 7,160 accessesView PDFCite

Rajapaul PerinbamProblem statement: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is currently receiving significant attention due to their unlimited potential. It is still very early in the lifetime of such systems and many research challenges exist, out of which one of the challenges is sensor processing and fusion under limited capacities, the most important component in sensor is its TX/RX antenna. Approach: For high-speed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 21 Nov 2011 · 7,109 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Optimal Path Management Strategy in Mobile Ad Hoc Network Using Fuzzy and Rough Set TheoryP. Seethalakshmi, M. Joseph Auxilius Jude, G. RajendranProblem statement: Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes that dynamically forms a network. Most of the existing ad-hoc routing algorithms select the shortest path using various resources. However the selected path may not consider all the network parameters and this would result in link instability in the network. The problems with existing methods are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 15 Oct 2011 · 7,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating Buffer Management with Epidemic Routing in Delay Tolerant NetworksG. Fathima, R. S.D. WahidabanuProblem statement: The Design of Delay Tolerant Network (DTN) routing protocols has focused to operate in an environment where there is no guarantee of end to end path between source and destination at all points of time. The DTN research has focussed primarily on applications that are delay tolerant. But it can also be used to provide real time information … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 7,086 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Routing Technique against Packet Dropping Attack in Adhoc NetworksN. Bhalaji, Sinchan banerjee, A. ShanmugamProblem Statement: Mobile adhoc networks (MANETs) were extensively used in defense and rescue applications. The dynamic topology of MANETs allows nodes to join and leave the network at any point of time. This dynamic property of MANET has rendered it vulnerable to various security attacks. Many trust establishment methods were proposed to increase the security in MANET. In this paper … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Handwritten Tamil Character Recognition System using Octal GraphR. J. Kannan, R. PrabhakarProblem Statement: Handwriting recognition has attracted voluminous research in recent times. The segmentation and recognition of the characters from handwritten scripts incorporates considerable overhead. Almost all the existing handwritten character recognition techniques use neural network approach, which requires lot of preprocessing and hence accomplishing these problems using neural network is a tedious task. Approach: In this study we propose a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,408 accessesView PDFCite
