Highlights from Families and Work Institute’s 2008 National Study of Employers.

Families and Work Institute’s 2008 National Study of Employers (NSE) is the most comprehensive and far-reaching study of the practices, policies, programs and benefits provided by U.S employers to address the changing needs of today’s workforce and workplace. The 2008 NSE sample includes 1,100 employers with 50 or more employees—77 percent are for profit employers and 23 percent are nonprofit organizations; 40 percent operate at only one location, while 60 percent have operations at more than one location.

Networks - Ii: Error Estimation In Angle Of Arrival In Smart Antenna, Sangita Lalchand, Muhammad Mazhar Manzoor, Amir Ijaz, Imran Ahmed Awan, Asad Ali Siddique Jul 2011

Networks - Ii: Error Estimation In Angle Of Arrival In Smart Antenna, Sangita Lalchand, Muhammad Mazhar Manzoor, Amir Ijaz, Imran Ahmed Awan, Asad Ali Siddique

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies

Rapidly growing demand in mobile communication system required technology which will provide minimum errors and maximize SNR in a particular angle/direction. Smart antenna has a system for directed a beam towards desired angle/direction and suppress/cancel interference from undesired angle/direction. MUSIC (Multiple Signal Classification) has capability to estimate number of signals in an array and angle/direction of arrival of desired signal. ESPRIT (Estimation of Signal Parameters via Rotational Invariance Techniques) is used for the estimation of direction of arrival of multiple sets of identical doublets, provides parallel processing. This Paper provides comparative analysis and simulation of angle of arrival (AOA) estimation, …


Image Processing – I: Morphological And Gradient Based Fingerprint Image Segmentation, M. Usman Akram, Anaum Ayaz, Junaid Imtiaz Jul 2011

Image Processing – I: Morphological And Gradient Based Fingerprint Image Segmentation, M. Usman Akram, Anaum Ayaz, Junaid Imtiaz

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies

For personal identification the use of fingerprint identification systems is mostly common. First step for an Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) is the segmentation of fingerprint from the acquired image. Extraction of region of interest (ROI) from the desired fingerprint impression is the main purpose of segmentation. In this paper, we present a new technique for fingerprint segmentation using morphological operations and modified gradient based technique. The distinct feature of our technique is that it gives high accuracy for fingerprint segmentation even for low quality fingerprint images. The proposed algorithm is applied on standard fingerprint databases, FVC2002 and FVC2004. Experimental …

Beside such high speed processor implementation, the image processing based algorithm plays significant role in machine vision based solution for industries, robotic and field …


Application Of Ict: A Comparative Analysis Of Power And Device Utilization Of Ldpc And Turbo Encoders, Sohaib A. Qazi, Samra Kahkashan Jul 2011

Application Of Ict: A Comparative Analysis Of Power And Device Utilization Of Ldpc And Turbo Encoders, Sohaib A. Qazi, Samra Kahkashan

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies

Today, the exponentially emergent requirements for high performance communication systems operating in noisy environments arise the need of high data rate with error free communication. Due to this reason, design of channel encoders becomes critical and a performance metric is required to qualify encoder for optimized solution. In this paper, we present two encoding techniques i.e. Low Density Parity Check (LDPC) and Turbo encoder. These techniques are evaluated on the basis of FPGA resource utilization and power consumption. Post PAR simulation results show that Low Density Parity Check encoder is more efficient in terms of through put, resource utilization and …


Image Processing – I: Automated System For Fingerprint Image Enhancement Using Improved Segmentation And Gabor Wavelets, Amna Saeed, Anam Tariq, Usman Jawaid Jul 2011

Image Processing – I: Automated System For Fingerprint Image Enhancement Using Improved Segmentation And Gabor Wavelets, Amna Saeed, Anam Tariq, Usman Jawaid

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies

This research revolves around the fingerprint image enhancement. It is used for automated fingerprint identification systems (AFIS) for extracting the best quality fingerprint images. Accurate feature extraction and identification is the basic theme of this enhancement. This paper is on the fingerprint image enhancement using wavelets. Wavelets are famous for their special localization property and orientation flow estimation. The proposed technique is basically comprises of three main steps: segmentation followed by image sharpening and then Gabor wavelet filtering. Segmentation distinguishes between image background and foreground which in turn reduces processing time. Our sharpening stage of enhancement algorithm sharpens the edges …

Application Of Ict: Potential Of Cloud Computing Architecture, Saira Begum, Muhammad Khalid Khan

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies

Cloud computing is a massively central advancement in the technique that businesses and users devour and work on computing. It's a elementary modify to an prepared model in which applications don't subsist out their lives on a specific section of hardware and in which possessions are more supplely deployed than was the historical standard. It's a primary shift to expansion and utilization model that replaces hard-wired, proprietary associations surrounded by software components and the clients of those components with unimportant Web services and Web-based software admittance. As difficulty under the virtualization is how to allocate resources to every application on-demand …
