ABSTRACT
Civic centre is a reference point of any city where it is located and has been designed to attract interest, hence symbolic expression is one of the paramount requirements in a civic centre design. Biomimicry is defined as imitation of life. It would go a long way in enhancing...
Abstract
The trend towards personalized ubiquitous computing has led to the advent of a new generation of wireless technologies, namely wireless body area networks (WBANs), which connect the wearable devices into the Internet-of-Things. This thesis considers the problems of relay...
ABSTRACT
Buildings account for a large amount of land use, energy and water consumption, air and atmosphere alteration. Considering the statistics and the impact of the built environment on human health as well as the natural environment, reducing the number of natural resources consume...
ABSTRACT Climate change is having a tremendous effect on our fragile ecosystem where the acceleration of its effect is believed to have occurred as a result of human activities that release Greenhouse Gases (GHG) into the atmosphere. In the built environment also, energy necessity of buildings ha...
ABSTRACT
Power consumption is a key consideration in every Wireless Local Area Network Medium Access Control (WLAN MAC) algorithm design for wireless devices and extending battery life requires more efficient power management scheme considering that carrier sensing by WLAN modules, fals...
