In the automotive sector, processes outcomes could be derived from different standards including Automotive SPICE PAM 3.1 and IATF 16949:2016. Both standards have common requirements, but each standard describes the requirements from its viewpoint. IATF 16949:2016 is mainly concerned with the quality management system processes from "organizational" perspective, while Automotive SPICE focuses on

A Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is considered a type of network which is wireless and has no fixed infrastructure composed of a set if nodes in self organized fashion which are randomly, frequently and unpredictably mobile. MANETs can be applied in both military and civil environments ones because of its numerous applications. This is due to their special characteristics and self-configuration

In characterizing the chiral phase-structure of pseudoscalar ( ), scalar ( ), vector ( ) and axial-vector ( t) meson states and their dependence on temperature, chemical potential, and magnetic field, we utilize the SU(3) Polyakov linear-sigma model (PLSM) in the mean-field approximation. We first determine the chiral (non)strange quark condensates, and , and the corresponding deconfinement order

New hybrid Eulerian/Lagrangian model is presented accounting for the two-way coupling between the pulsating blood flow and the artery deformability. The Streamline-Upwind/Petrove--Galerkin (SUPG) finite element technique is used to treat for the convective nature of the momentum equation. The deformability of the artery walls is accounted for by treating the wall as an elastic beam under

Motion and depth provide critical information in autonomous driving and they are commonly used for generic object detection. In this paper, we leverage them for improving semantic segmentation. Depth cues can be useful for detecting road as it lies below the horizon line. There is also a strong structural similarity for different instances of different objects including buildings and trees. Motion

The radical change in technology and high customer expectations and demand are pushing the service desk to provide a competent service for the customers. And this service should be faster, more flexible and gives a more accurate response and high user experience. Replacing the human call agent’s activities with a cognitive agent could improve the user experience by providing a faster response to

Various thermodynamic quantities for baryon-free matter are calculated by combining the most reliable non-perturbative and perturbative calculations, especially the most recent ones including as many quark flavors as possible. We extend these calculations by including other degrees of freedom (dof), such as photons, neutrinos, leptons, electroweak particles and Higgs bosons, which allows us to

Introduction and Purpose: Digital transformation has been a “buzz” word over the last few years. Government of Egypt has initiated various ambitious initiatives and projects for transforming the economy into digital economy. Since the outlook of the future organizations would be different from what we know today, therefore, such transformation mandates radical change in the way public leaders

Most audio recordings are in the form of a 2-channel stereo recording while new playback sound systems make use of more loudspeakers that are designed to give a more spatial and surrounding atmosphere that is beyond the content of the stereo recording. Hence, it is essential to extract more spatial information from stereo recording in order to reach an enhanced upmixing techniques. One way is by
