Smart Applications and Data Analysis for Smart Cities
View Published Articles →01About This Special Issue
Progress in new information technologies and communication has pushed humans to imagine intelligent cities. These cities will allow quick and easy access to information, they will also facilitate household chores, save and master the consumption of energy. There would be more green spaces and less pollution. Lately most of the countries are making great efforts to build smart cities. The achievement of this goal requires the latest equipment and infrastructure. The installation of connected sensors, smart grids and computer applications will be necessary to analyze all the data collected. This analysis will help decision makers taking precautions to deal with the different problems that can appear as emerging diseases.Aims and Scope:

A New Edge Detection Using Decomposition Model
Issue: Volume 5, Issue 3-1, May 2016Pages: 28-31Received: 19 December 2015Accepted: 25 December 2015Published: 30 June 2016Abstract: Edge detection is one of the most commonly used operations in image analysis, and there are more algorithms in the literature for enhancing and detecting edges. Natural images contain both textured and untextured regions, so the cues of contour and texture are exploited simultaneously. In this paper, we present a new edge detection method for natur...

Applying the SAC Algorithm to Extract the Cardiologic Indicators of an Athlete's Level
Issue: Volume 5, Issue 3-1, May 2016Pages: 23-27Received: 19 December 2015Accepted: 21 December 2015Published: 18 June 2016Abstract: The objective of this paper is to identify the parameters that determine the level (high or low) of an athlete. The developed method is based on the algorithms of ant colonies. In this paper We will focus on the application of an algorithm named: SAC “Scout Ant for Clustering”. This method is an extension of existing data clustering algorithms (ACO... Show More -
Issue: Volume 5, Issue 3-1, May 2016Pages: 1-4Received: 10 October 2015Accepted: 12 October 2015Published: 18 June 2016Abstract: Several studies have sought to identify the parameters that determine the outcome of balloon dilation in pulmonary atresia with ventricular septum. However, none of these studies was based on the ant colony algorithm. In this paper we focus on the implementation of an algorithm based on ant colonies: Fuzzy Ant-Miner. This method uses the concepts o... Show More

Issue: Volume 5, Issue 3-1, May 2016Pages: 5-22Received: 4 December 2015Accepted: 5 January 2016Published: 18 June 2016Abstract: In this paper, we study the Direct Torque Control (DTC) of an Induction Motor coupled to an Inverter (Inv-IM). DTC permits to control directly the stator flux and the torque by selecting the appropriate inverter state. DTC has been introduced because it presents several advantages in comparison to other techniques such as voltage/frequency control,... Show More
