Multimedia Information Systems: A Comparison Perspective of Social Web Sites

Vol.3  No.2

Year: 2014

Issue : Mar-May

Title : Multimedia Information Systems: A Comparison Perspective of Social Web Sites

Author Name : Addala Radha Krishna, K. Chandra Sekharaiah

Synopsis :

In ISs, resource objects like databases are distributed and replicated in order to increase the performance, reliability and availability. In an earlier work, we extended the earlier existing taxonomy of ISs [10]. In this paper, we have revised the taxonomy further by including WIS, SWIS and MMIS. We shall discuss various characteristics of MMIS and the effect of the network on required quality of presentation for MMIS. MMIS input strings provide an efficient means for iconic temporal/spatial relations of media streams and semantic objects. Today more information sources become available as MMISs. Hence, the development of abstract semantic models for video, audio, text, graphics and image data became very important. In this paper, we have tabulated a comparison feature study of a variety of MMISs web sites. It is found that most of the modern web sites use maximum degree of multimedia support.

Gender Classification Using Neck Features Extracted From Profile Images

Vol.3  No.2

Year: 2014

Issue : Mar-May

Title : Gender Classification Using Neck Features Extracted From Profile Images

Author Name : Munehiro Nakamura, Kengo Iwata , Masatoshi Kimura , Haruhiko Kimura

Synopsis :

Gender classification has been one of the emerging issues in the field of security due to increase of women-only floors. For security purpose, this paper presents two biological features extracted from the neck region in a profile image. One is extracted the bump of the neck formed by the laryngeal prominence. Another is the width of the neck that tends to be wider in males than in females. Evaluation experiments for the proposed two features were performed on 50 male and 39 female profile images. The experimental result shows that the proposed method achieved over 95.0% accuracy for both of the male and female images, which overcomes a state-of-the-art method based on Local Binary Patterns for gender classification.

Cross-Site Request Forgery: Vulnerabilities and Defenses

Vol.3  No.2

Year: 2014

Issue : Mar-May

Title : Cross-Site Request Forgery: Vulnerabilities and Defenses

Author Name : Bharti Nagpal, Naresh Chauhan , Nanhay Singh

Synopsis :

Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF) attack occurs when a malicious web site causes a user’s web browser to perform an unwanted action on a trusted site. These attacks have been called the “sleeping giant” of web-based vulnerabilities, because many sites on the internet fail to protect against them because they have been largely ignored by the web development and security communities. The impact of a successful cross-site request forgery attack is limited to the capabilities exposed by the vulnerable application. This attack could result in a transfer of funds, changing a password, or purchasing an item in the user's context.

Improving Performance of Web Applications with Effective Data Transmission Using Ids with Internet

Vol.3  No.2

Year: 2014

Issue : Mar-May

Title : Improving Performance of Web Applications with Effective Data Transmission Using Ids with Internet

Author Name : Kalai Magal R, M.Rames Kumar

Synopsis :

Depending upon who you ask, the IDS may be a simple audit trail process, or a filter process using a traffic control system, like screening routers, packet filters, firewalls, etc. Some people use IDS to mean a logging utility. This paper studies improving Internet security with Network Security combined authentication and intrusion detection (NS-IDS) secure data transmission in such MANETs. Security is deployed to work with intrusion detection systems (IDSs) to alleviate the shortcomings of uni-modal biometric systems. Since each device in the network has measurement and estimation limitations, more than one device needs to be chosen, and observations can be fused to increase observation accuracy using for the system decides whether user authentication (or IDS input) is required and which (or IDSs) should be chosen, depending on the security posture. The decisions are made Network in fully secured manner by each authentication device and IDS. Simulation results are presented to show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

Review of Energy Aware policies for Cloud Computing Environment

Vol.3  No.1

Year: 2014

Issue : Dec-Feb

Title : Review of Energy Aware policies for Cloud Computing Environment

Author Name : Pankaj Singh, Binay Kumar Pandey , Hardwari Lal Mandoria , Ratnesh Srivastava

Synopsis :

With the rapid growth of cloud computing developers are being concern about the massive power consumption bythe data centers. The huge amount of power consume by the data centers does not only results in high operational cost but also the production of heat and carbon footprints on the environment. Researchers are making efforts to maximize the power efficiency and minimizing energy consumption of data centers. This paper presents a study of the researches and methods that have been proposed to increase the power efficiency and minimize power consumption of the data centers.

Image Fusion Technique and Genetic Algorithm A Review

Vol.3  No.1

Year: 2014

Issue : Dec-Feb

Title : Image Fusion Technique and Genetic Algorithm A Review

Author Name : Deepak Awasthi, Richa Gupta

Synopsis :

Image fusion is technique in which two or more images of same scene are merged together such that new image formed suitable for better interpretation. Image fusion result into a fused image that continue to have the most useful information. This fused Image has characteristics of each input image. Various standard method used for image fusion produce good result spatially but cause spatial noise. To remove this distortion and enhance quality of fused image, various fusion schemes have been proposed. In this paper, we focus on the fusion methods based on various standard techniques and compare it with wavelet transform used for image fusion .Wavelet transform is majorly used in the area of image fusion because it provide better results in temporal domain as well as spatial domain .Performance of any fusion technique is measured by mean standard deviation, entropy, average gradient, peak signal to noise ratio (PSNR) and correlation coefficients.

A System That Helps Sell/Buy Products with Ease

Vol.3  No.1

Year: 2014

Issue : Dec-Feb

Title : A System That Helps Sell/Buy Products with Ease

Author Name : Bheemanjaneyulu S, Dr.K.L.Narayana

Synopsis :

To get an idea of the modern gadgets that are available in the market and to select/ buy a product, a visit to the mall/ shop/ exhibition is needed till now. However, the products are now presented to the individual by online and he/ she need not take the trouble of going out. Recommender systems are alternative to search algorithms, as they help users discover item they might not have found by themselves. These systems use search engines indexing non-traditional data. Recommender systems are developed to get the pulse of the customer and to present the items, in which he/ she is interested and thus the manufacturer is able to sell his products and the customer is able to buy the items with less effort. Should it be also possible at this rate, using the recommender systems, to diagnose and prescribe the medicine to the ailing patient, to be experimented/ studied?
