Measuring Atmospheric Scattering From Digital Images Of Urban Scenery Using Temporal Polarization-Based Vision, Tarek El-Gaaly Jun 2010

Measuring Atmospheric Scattering From Digital Images Of Urban Scenery Using Temporal Polarization-Based Vision, Tarek El-Gaaly

Archived Theses and Dissertations

Suspended atmospheric particles (particulate matter) are a form of air pollution that visually degrades urban scenery and is hazardous to human health and the environment. Current environmental monitoring devices are limited in their capability of measuring average particulate matter (PM) over large areas. Quantifying the visual effects of haze in digital images of urban scenery and correlating these effects to PM levels is a vital step in more practically monitoring our environment. Current image haze extraction algorithms remove all the haze from the scene and hence produce unnatural scenes for the sole purpose of enhancing vision. We present two algorithms …


An Extended Configurable Uml Activity Diagram And A Transformation Algorithm For Business Process Reference Modeling, Yosra Osama Badr Jun 2010

An Extended Configurable Uml Activity Diagram And A Transformation Algorithm For Business Process Reference Modeling, Yosra Osama Badr

Archived Theses and Dissertations

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) solutions provide generic off-the-shelf reference models usually known as "best practices". The configuration !individualization of the reference model to meet specific requirements of business end users however, is a difficult task. The available modeling languages do not provide a complete configurable language that could be used to model configurable reference models. More specifically, there is no algorithm that monitors the transformation of configurable UML Activity Diagram (AD) models while preserving the syntactic correctness of the model. To fill these gaps we propose an extended UML AD modeling language which we named Configurable UML Activity Diagram (C-UML …


Software Quality Attribute Measurement And Analysis Based On Class Diagram Metrics, Dalia Rizk Jun 2009

Software Quality Attribute Measurement And Analysis Based On Class Diagram Metrics, Dalia Rizk

Archived Theses and Dissertations

Software quality measurement lies at the heart of the quality engineering process. Quality measurement for object-oriented artifacts has become the key for ensuring high quality software. Both researchers and practitioners are interested in measuring software product quality for improvement. It has recently become more important to consider the quality of products at the early phases, especially at the design level to ensure that the coding and testing would be conducted more quickly and accurately. The research work on measuring quality at the design level progressed in a number of steps. The first step was to discover the correct set of …
