    Throughout the recent years, Web services security has been the target of many researchers. Particularly, by integrating policies and rules to govern the Web services behaviors at runtime, researchers have been able to ...
  • Akle, B.; Hamade, R. F.; Zeineddine, F.; Smaili, A. (2016-10-14)
    A PC-based, CAD-driven, 5-axis rapid prototyping (RP) robotic system that uses subtractive technology is presented. ModelAngelo, as it is called, consists of six integrated hardware and software subsystems. The system ...
  • Akle, Barbar; Smaili, Ahmad; Hemadeh, Ramsey; Zeineddine, Firas (ASME, 2018-01-22)
    This paper presents a new complete CAD-driven rapid prototyping system for polystyrene. ModelAngelo, as it is called, consists of six subsystems featuring hardware and software. The system utilizes a virtual 3D CAD model ...
  • Assaker, Guy; Vinzi, Vincenzo Esposito; O'Connor, Peter (2016-05-09)
    Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to capture the causal relationships between the primary constituents of the tourism destination paradigm – namely, the economy, society, and the natural and infrastructural environments ...
  • Fawaz, Wissam; Khabbaz, Maurice J.; Assi, Chadi M. (IEEE, 2017-05-05)
    The use of vehicular infrastructure to establish connectivity between isolated stationary Information Relay Stations is an appealing application of Terrestrial Delay-Tolerant Networking. A source opportunistically releases ...

    Web applications are nowadays at the heart of the business world. All corporate companies and big institutions have very busy e-commerce web sites that host a major part of their businesses. With this great emergence of ...
  • Cheng, Yuan; Horrein, Ludovic; Mansour, Charbel; Bouscayrol, Alain; Dumand, Clément (SIA, 2021-02-26)
    The energy management strategy is one of the key technologies for the design and development of hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs). In order to investigate the maximum potentials of various powertrain architectures and ...
  • Khabbaz, Maurice; Antoun, Joseph; Sharafeddine, Sanaa; Assi, Chadi (2020-07-01)
    This paper investigates the data-delivery latency in the context of intermittent vehicle-to-UAV (V2U) communications. Precisely, a V2U communication scenario is considered where vehicles opportunistically establish ...
  • Khabbaz, Maurice J.; Fawaz, Wissam F.; Assi, Chadi M. (2016-05-10)
    Vehicular networks outline a challenging terrestrial application of the emerging delay-tolerant networking (DTN) paradigm where wireless links experience frequent disruptions. Thus, continuous end-to-end paths are unguaranteed. ...
  • Akle, Barbar J.; Nasser, Jalal; Hijazi, Ahmad (2018-01-22)
    There is a need for buoyancy engines to modulate sensor depth for optimal positioning and station-keeping. Compared to current technologies, Ionic Buoyancy Engines does not have any moving parts. They are energy efficient ...
  • Akle, Barbar J.; Joshi, Keyur B.; Leo, Donald J.; Priya, Shashank (SPIE, 2017-05-30)
    Ionomeric Polymer Metal Composite (IPMC) actuators generate high flexural strains at small voltage amplitudes of 2-5V. IPMCs bend toward the anode when a potential drop is applied across its thickness. The actuation mechanism ...
