Abstract:
Video is currently at the forefront of most business and natural environments. In surveillance, it is the most important technology as surveillance systems reveal information and patterns for solving many security problems including crime prevention. This research investigates technologies that currently drive video surveillance systems with a view to optimization and automated decision support. The investigation reveals some features and properties that can be optimised to improve performance and derive further benefits from surveillance systems. These aspects include system-wide architecture

Abstract:
Prostate cancer is the third most common cancer in men globally, and the most common cancer among men in the United States. Dietary choices may play an important role in developing prostate cancer; in particular, a higher dairy product intake has been associated with an increased risk of developing prostate cancer. The overall positive association between milk consumption and the risk of prostate cancer development and prostate cancer mortality has been well documented in multiple epidemiological studies. However, there is limited literature on the association between types of milk, as classif

A systemic perspective was employed in completing a phonological analysis and developing an intervention plan for Jarrod, a 7;0 year old child who exhibited a severe speech sound disorder characterized by inconsistency. Results of the Systemic Phonological Analysis of Child Speech (SPACS) revealed a limited sound system that was characterized by phonotactic inventory constraints, positional constraints, and sequence constraints. Mapping the child-to-adult sound systems through phoneme collapses revealed a logical and symmetrical system that maintained systematicity, yet permitted variability.
