Recent advances in computer infrastructures encourage the separation of hardware and software management tasks. Following this direction, virtualized cloud infrastructures are becoming very popular. Among various cloud models, Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS) provides many advantages to both provider and customer. In this service model, the provider offers his virtualized resource, and is responsible for managing his infrastructure, while the customer manages his application deployed in the allocated virtual machines.

It is believed that the high penetration of DGs will result in the reduction of power losses, voltage profile improvement, meeting future load demand, and optimizingthe use of non-conventionalenergy sources. However, more serious problems will arise if a decent control mechanism is not exploited. An improperly managed high PV penetration may cause voltage pro

Abstract:
<p> Cognitive radios are the external sensing agents for the secondary users to improve the Dynamic Spectrum Access (DSA), to overcome the primary user&rsquo;s problems, and to improve the spectrum utilization. External sensors create the opportunities for the DSA networks to utilize spectrum access within the cellular frequency bands. In this project, a method based on co-operative matching is presented, to overcome the difficulties of managing the detected spectrum by the external sensors. </p><p> The spectrum access resources detected are divided into two types of blocks: massive block si

Abstract:
One of the problems facing wireless network planners is a perceived scarcity of spectrum. A technology that addresses this problem is cognitive radio (CR). A critical function of a CR network is spectrum sensing (SS). A secondary user (SU) in a CR network will perform SS to gather information about the radio environment within which it wishes to operate and then make decisions based on that information. While SS by individual SUs is very useful it has been found in the literature that a cooperative approach, where SUs share their individual results, may provide more accurate information about

Abstract:
This thesis is an exploratory case study researching the benefits of integrating information and communication technologies (ICT) in the process of cooperative education placement (CEP) learning. For the purposes of this study, CEP is defined as a working partnership between the learner-employee, the college, and the employer which enables learners to earn college credit for learning on the job. The main aims of this research were to establish: • How effective is the current ICT and teaching approaches being utilised in coordinating cooperative education learners and facilitating their learni
