    Mobility analyzer: A framework for analysis and recognition of mobility traces in mobile Ad-Hoc networks

    , Article 3rd International Conference on New Technologies, Mobility and Security, 20 December 2009 through 23 December 2009 ; 2009 ; 9781424462735 (ISBN) Khaledi, M. J ; Hemmatyar, A. M. A ; Rabiee, H. R ; Mousavi, S. M ; Khaledi, M. H ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    Mobility is one of the most challenging issues in mobile Ad-Hoc networks which has a significant impact on performance of network protocols. To cope with this issue, the protocol designers should be able to analyze the movement of mobile nodes in a particular wireless network. In this paper, a new framework called Mobility Analyzer has been introduced for analysis and recognition of mobility traces. At first, the Mobility Analyzer acquires some mobility traces collected by GPS or generated with mobility simulators; then it calculates some mobility metrics which represent the movement behavior of the mobile nodes; finally it attempts to classify mobility traces into particular mobility models...

    Abstract
    Modeling the spine behavior plays a key role in understanding mechanisms leading to spinal disorders and injuries. The goal of this article is to develop a new model to obtain 3D spine movement patterns. High degrees of freedom of the system, a great many of muscles involved in the spine movements and its unstable intrinsic behavior make the control problem more difficult. New theories in computational motor control suggest optimal control as a useful tool for modeling Central Nervous System (CNS) to provide appropriate control signals while it computes the neural interactions with biological sensors. Therefore, CNS is modeled as an optimal controller. Our simulations illustrate the movement...
