DEMO: Unconventional WiFi-ZigBee communications without gateways
2014
Nowadays, the overcrowding of ISM bands is becoming an evident limitation for the performance and widespread usage of 802.11 and 802.15.4 technologies. In this demo, we prove that it is possible to opportunistically exploit the inter-technology interference between 802.11 and 802.15.4 to build an unconventional low-rate communication channel and signalling protocol, devised to improve the performance of each contending technology. Differently from previous solutions, inter-technology communications do not require the deployment of a gateway with two network interfaces, but can be activated (when needed) directly between two heterogeneous nodes, e.g. a WiFi node and a ZigBee node. This capab…
METALANG. Protocolo franco-español de exploración de habilidades metalingüísticas en niños de 6 a 9 años: un estudio preliminar
2012
International audience; In this work are described the principles of functional-pragmatic and the reasons for developing an exploration protocol for natural metalinguistic abilities. This study explains the base hypothesis and structure of METALANG protocol. This protocol consists in a Test and a Questionnaire for parents with two different scales: A = Ability, B = Frequency. Each element of the protocol has 6 sections and 40 items. It is performed a preliminary contrast with 12 subjects aged 6 to 9 years. Among the 12 subjects, 4 were diagnosed with dysphasia. METALANG shows high scores in reliability and internal consistency. This result confirms the hypothesis that it is possible a joint…

Investigating Low Level Protocols for Wireless Body Sensor Networks
2016
The rapid development of medical sensors has increased the interest in Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) applications where physiological data from the human body and its environment is gathered, monitored, and analyzed to take the proper measures. In WBANs, it is essential to design MAC protocols that ensure adequate Quality of Service (QoS) such as low delay and high scalability. This paper investigates Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols used in WBAN, and compares their performance in a high traffic environment. Such scenario can be induced in case of emergency for example, where physiological data collected from all sensors on human body should be sent simultaneously to take appropria…
Supervised Quantum Learning without Measurements
2017
We propose a quantum machine learning algorithm for efficiently solving a class of problems encoded in quantum controlled unitary operations. The central physical mechanism of the protocol is the iteration of a quantum time-delayed equation that introduces feedback in the dynamics and eliminates the necessity of intermediate measurements. The performance of the quantum algorithm is analyzed by comparing the results obtained in numerical simulations with the outcome of classical machine learning methods for the same problem. The use of time-delayed equations enhances the toolbox of the field of quantum machine learning, which may enable unprecedented applications in quantum technologies. The…
MAC Design for WiFi Infrastructure Networks: A Game-Theoretic Approach
2011
In WiFi networks, mobile nodes compete for accessing a shared channel by means of a random access protocol called Distributed Coordination Function (DCF). Although this protocol is in principle fair, since all the stations have the same probability to transmit on the channel, it has been shown that unfair behaviors may emerge in actual networking scenarios because of non-standard configurations of the nodes. Due to the proliferation of open source drivers and programmable cards, enabling an easy customization of the channel access policies, we propose a game-theoretic analysis of random access schemes. Assuming that each node is rational and implements a best response strategy, we show that…
Protocolo Familiar: sus resultados
2006
L'obiettivo di questo libro è di riferire circa i principali risultati conseguiti da "protocolli familiari". Dopo una breve rassegna della letteratura sugli strumenti di pianificazione strategica nel contesto delle aziende familiari e sull'evoluzione del concetto di protocollo familiare, vengono presentati i risultati di una ricerca condotta in Spagna su un campione di cinquanta imprese familiari estratte fra le circa novanta che hanno redatto un protocollo familiare avvalendosi dell'assistenza professionale di persone direttamente coinvolte nella Cattedra di Family Business dello IESE. Obiettivo della ricerca è di identificare i risultati - positivi o negativi, duraturi o passeggeri - dire…
Optical sectioning microscopy through single-shot Lightfield protocol
2020
Optical sectioning microscopy is usually performed by means of a scanning, multi-shot procedure in combination with non-uniform illumination. In this paper, we change the paradigm and report a method that is based in the light field concept, and that provides optical sectioning for 3D microscopy images after a single-shot capture. To do this we fi rst capture multiple orthographic perspectives of the sample by means of Fourier-domain integral microscopy (FiMic). The second stage of our protocol is the application of a novel refocusing algorithm that is able to produce optical sectioning in real time, and with no resolution worsening, in the case of sparse f luorescent samples.We provide the…
A mathematical study on effective wavenumber, an operative computation procedure, and its use with radiance-temperature relationships
2003
In this paper we study the existence of effective wavenumber for any sensor by means of simple mathematics. We implement a numeric algorithm, based on the developed mathematical background, into a computer program named 'srf2radi', which is freely available via anonymous File Transfer Protocol (FTP) at ftp://ftp.uv.es/pub/src/. The number of effective wavenumbers for each temperature and their accuracy are also computed and studied for NOAA-16 Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer Version 3 (AVHRR/3) channel 4. These effective wavenumbers can be used to obtain radiance-temperature relationships with physical meaning for any sensor in user-defined temperature intervals.
Web-based real-time data acquisition system as tool for energy efficiency monitoring
2013
A web-based data acquisition system is proposed as a research tool of the energy efficiency monitoring project of the test stands. Basic requirements for the architecture of the data acquisition system are discussed. The architecture of the data acquisition system is proposed to provide the real-time interface with sensors, to acquire and to log data from all sensors with fixed rate, and to deliver logged data through FTP to the end-user.
