Distributed Target Tracking in Camera Networks
Recently, there is a tremendous increase in usage of multi-camera set-up in many applications such as surveillance, smart homes, sports analysis etc. Since manual analysis of videos in multi-camera set-up is tedious and ... -
Distributed TDMA-Scheduling and Schedule-Compaction Algorithms for Efficient Communication in Wireless Sensor Networks
(2018-05-16)A wireless sensor network (WSN) is a collection of sensor nodes distributed over a geographical region to obtain the environmental data. It can have different types of applications ranging from low data rate event driven ... -
Distributed Wireless Networks : Link Scheduling And Application Delay Modelling
(2013-05-23)We address several problems that arise in a multihop wireless mesh network. First, we study the problem of joint congestion control, routing and MAC layer scheduling. We formulate the problem as an aggregate utility ... -
Distribution, activity budget and feeding ecology of Himalayan gray langur (Semnopithecus ajax) in Kashmir Himalaya
Colobines are group of primates known to inhabit harsh environments. These habitats pose different challenges which they have coped up physiologically and behaviourally. Primates in such environments are subjected to ... -
The Distribution, Dynamics & Impacts Of Invasive Lantana Camara In A Seasonal Forest Of Mudumalai, Southern India
(2016-04-25)Species that become naturalized in a new geographical range, subsequently multiply and spread, and persist to the detriment of resident communities, are known as alien invasive species. Two aspects of species invasion – ... -
Disulphonamides of aryl and aralkyl disubstituted amines and hydrazines
The present thesis consists of four parts. They deal with the synthesis of the disulphonamides of diphenylamine, phenylbenzylamine, dibenzylamine, diphenylhydrazine and dibenzylhydrazine and their starting materials. Part ... -
Diverse Applications of Luminescent Metallocholate Hydrogels
Supramolecular gels are soft materials consisting of a solid three-dimensional network with noncovalent interactions such as hydrophobic interactions, hydrogen bonding, cation-п, and п- п interactions. Due to their soft, ... -
Diversity and distribution of mixed-species foraging groups in the Lakshadweep Islands, India
Species interactions are known to shape biological communities. While antagonistic interactions like competition and predation are well known, cooperative interactions have received comparatively less attention. Mixed-species ... -
Diversity and Structure-Property Correlation in Disordered Multicomponent Organic Crystal Forms
The search for new multifunctional materials continues unabated, and with the realization that in solids, the material property can be tailored using the variability provided by molecular and submolecular forces. Harnessing ... -
Diversity from the Gut to Species: Phylogeny, Population genetics and Microbiome of the Antilope cervicapra
Evolutionary relationships between members of the Antilopina taxon have been much debated in recent years. The ‘true antelope’ clade is currently comprised of 4 genera viz., Gazella, Nanger, Eudorcas and the monotypic genus ... -
Diversity In Indian Equine Rotaviruses And Structure And Function Of Rotavirus Non Structural Protein 4 (NSP4)
(2009-03-11)Rotaviruses, members of the family Reoviridae, are the major etiologic agents of severe, acute dehydrating diarrhea in the young of many mammalian species, including humans, calves and foals. Recent estimates indicate an ... -
Diversity-Multiplexing Gain Tradeoff Of Cooperative Multi-hop Networks
(2010-08-23)We consider single-source single-sink (ss-ss) multi-hop relay networks, with slow-fading links and single-antenna half-duplex relay nodes. While two-hop cooperative relay networks have been studied in great detail in terms ... -
Diversity-Mutiplexing Tradeoff Of Asynchronous Cooperative Relay Networks And Diversity Embedded Coding Schemes
(2010-08-23)This thesis consists of two parts addressing two different problems in fading channels. The first part deals with asynchronous cooperative relay communication. The assumption of nodes in a cooperative communication relay ... -
A Divide and Conquer Framework For Graph Processing in Distributed Heterogeneous Systems
In many fields of science and engineering graph data structures are used to represent real-world information. As these graphs scale in size, it becomes very inefficient to process these graphs on a single core CPU using ... -
A divide-and-conquer distance geometry method to model protein structures from NMR spectroscopy
Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy provides insights into the dynamic behavior of proteins in solution, eliminating the need for crystallization. NMR experiments can spatially probe nuclei within 6 Angstroms of ... -
Divided They Stay : Species Coexistence In A Community Of Mutualists And Exploiters
(2012-12-14)The fig–fig wasp interaction is a classic example of obligate mutualism and coevolution. It is also a nursery pollination mutualism and supports a diversity of exploiter/parasite/non-pollinating fig wasp species. Mutualists ... -
Dividends, investment, and external financing behaviour of public limited companies in the engineering inndustry in India
The interdependence between dividends, investment, debt, and equity financing has been studied within the context of both the single equation and simultaneous equation models using cross-section data on the Indian engineering ... -
Division of flow in open channels
This thesis deals with the problem of division of flow when a branch channel bifurcates from a main channel. The effects of both the angle of off-take and the relative widths of the main and branch channels are considered. In ... -
Division of the Salmonella Containing Vacuole and Other Virulence Strategies Employed by Salmonella
Salmonella comprises a genus of rod-shaped, Gram-negative, non-sporulating and primarily motile enterobacteria. They have remained a major cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, claiming several hundreds of lives per ...
