Artificial Intelligence – I: A Preliminary Framework For Human-Agent Communication In Electronic Negotiations, Moez Ur Rehman, Nosheen Riaz
International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies
Electronic negotiations are business negotiations conducted via electronic means using information and communications technologies (ICT). Two dominant types of electronic negotiation systems are automated negotiation systems for software agents and negotiation support systems (NSSs) for humans. However, the integration of two types for human-agent negotiations is an important task. In this paper, an extended communication model for human-agent business negotiations is presented. For this purpose, the underlying communication models of automated negotiations and NSSs are analyzed. The extended communication model is based on a common negotiation ontology which captures the negotiation agenda and paves the way for such hybrid communication, …

Wireless Networks: Certificateless Id-Based Authentication Using Threshold Signature For P2p Manets, Aasia Samreen, Seema Ansari
International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies
As far as the security of MANET (mobile and ad hoc network) is concerned, it depends upon the secure authentication especially for P2P MANETs. Identity based encryption was introduced to construct Public Key without requiring a certificate. Therefore, certificateless authentication combined with threshold digital signature and efficient key generation using identities such as IP address, are the challenging issues in front of researchers. In this paper we have addressed the problem of identity based secure authentication employing well-known RSA algorithm and secret sharing to generate threshold signature on a message.

Networks - I: Networks-On-Chip: Challenges, Trends And Mechanisms For Enhancements, Omer Tayan
International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies
The rate of increase of silicon capacity in integrated circuits (IC) will enable system integration of several billion transistors to reside on a single chip in the near future. Future system-on-chip (SoC) systems must therefore integrate up to several hundreds of cores within a single chip, and SoC designs will employ on-chip communication networks (NoCs) as a result. This paper discusses the problems with many current SoC systems, surveys the challenges and trends facing future SoC designs and proposes a mechanism for enhancing NoC strategies of the future by enhancing memory management and utilization techniques within an NoC.

Using Software Engineering Principles To Develop Reusable Business Rules, Saqib Ali, Ben Soh, Torab Torabi
International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies
Nowadays, businesses need a system that can provide flexibility, reusability and simplicity for their business solutions. However, if business logics or rules are implemented using procedural paradigms, then the business systems will become more complex. In this paper we treat business logics separate from system logics, whereby we analyse a business by describing its rules and developing a set of rule statements. These business rules will be treated as a separate component in the design and implementation of the system. We have found that our proposed method leads to a system, which is more customisable, flexible, efficient, and reusable, in …

International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies
Remote sensing encounters different types of objects with similar spectral signatures. Multi-sensors form the solution of the problem with spectral different parts of the spectrum and the resulting information is then processed using digital signal processing techniques. Artificial neural networks provide another method for processing this information. The research describes how neural networks may be used to classify objects on the basis of their spectral response to different frequencies.
Real Time Object Tracking Using Bma, Zeeshan Hameed Khan, Muhammad Aurangzeb
Real Time Object Tracking Using Bma, Zeeshan Hameed Khan, Muhammad Aurangzeb
International Conference on Information and Communication Technologies
This paper describes real time object tracking using block matching algorithm (BMA). Emphasis is made on the development of techniques for tracking a user-selected object through digital image sequences in multimedia systems. The ability to track objects in sequences is useful in situations where the motion of objects is important. It is also useful when a moving object is difficult to see and needs to be highlighted. A tracking tool is also of benefit to the developers of a multimedia system to automatically 'mark up' a moving object so a user of the system can select it and manipulate it.
