This thesis focuses on energy considerations in location-aware transmissions, specifically in a MANET, aims at formulation of new metrics related to reliability. These will ultimately serve towards formulating MANETs models for reliability development, enhancements, assessments and predictability aspects, starting from energy considerations and all subsequent engineering features, concerned right from design stages. Simulations over NS-2 have been carried out involving random movements of nodes, random communication scenarios and appropriate topography considerations. Measures for energy...

Après une première série de 35 exercices pratiques présentés dans un manuscrit précédent intitulé " Exercices pratiques sur le matériel informatique ", je me suis occupé de la même manière de mes anciens étudiants en commerce et en gestion en leur proposant des travaux pratiques pour les modules " Environnement informatique des entreprises " et " Systèmes d'information ". Dans ce manuscrit, un ensemble successif de 35 exercices pratiques rédigés de manière cohérente sur des logiciels, relatifs au domaine des affaires et de la gestion, a été présenté, dans un style...

Nach einer ersten Reihe von 35 praktischen Übungen, die in einem vorangegangenen Manuskript mit dem Titel "Hardware-bezogene praktische Übungen in IKT" vorgelegt wurden, habe ich ein ähnliches Anliegen für meine früheren Studenten der Betriebswirtschaft und des Managements übernommen, wobei ich für sie praktische Arbeiten für die Module "Business Computer Environment" und "Information Systems" entwickelt habe. In diesem Manuskript wurde eine Reihe von 35 zusammenhängend geschriebenen praktischen Übungen in Software für den Bereich Wirtschaft und Management in einem ähnlichen Stil...

In the field of mobile and ubiquitous computing, little is known about reliability features contrary to mature fields like software engineering, though it has progressed a lot. This study aims at investigating the factors which contribute to reliability in this field and how to work with them in order to assess, predict and improve the reliability features, what should be the desired levels of reliability metrics identified. The study will be more geared towards the energy considerations when applying location-aware transmission. The aim is to formulate models for reliability development and...

After seventeen preceding sets of practical exercises laid forward in preceding manuscripts, I have inspired from my core ICT academic and research experience to produce this manuscript. Here, a successive set of 35 cohesively written practical exercises in softwares, directly related to General Usage, is laid forward, in a similar style as in the preceding manuscripts. Such exercises apply better to beginner levels in university courses. Of course, its applicability to advanced level courses may be appreciated by many academicians to their discretion. It is retained here that adaptations of...

After seven preceding sets of practical exercises laid forward in preceding manuscripts, I have inspired from my core ICT academic and research experience to produce this manuscript. Here, a successive set of 35 cohesively written practical exercises in softwares, pertaining to the field of Multimedia and Entertainment, entrepreneurship and leadership skills, is laid forward, in a similar style as in the preceding manuscripts. Such exercises apply better to beginner levels in university courses. Of course, its applicability to advanced level courses may be appreciated by many academicians to...

Après une précédente série d'exercices pratiques présentés dans un manuscrit sur les logiciels de finance d'entreprise, je me suis inspiré de mes modules d'enseignement précédents pour étendre ce travail. Ici, un ensemble successif de 35 exercices pratiques rédigés de manière cohérente sur des logiciels, relatifs au domaine de la comptabilité et de la finance, a été étendu, dans un style similaire à celui des manuscrits précédents. Ces exercices s'appliquent mieux aux niveaux débutants des cours universitaires. Bien entendu, leur applicabilité à des cours de niveau...

The evolution of each aspect in technology is rich in historical events, case studies, experience from elderly researchers and technicians. In itself, technology never meant goodness for the community. The need for such notions of "goodness", "doing things right", "being fair", "avoid suffering of people, animals and environment" must continue into the modern world with emerging technologies, despite the increase of technological powers and sophistication in people's hands, across so many countries and in all facets of life. There is therefore an academic and philosophical need for assessing...

After a first set of 35 practical exercises laid forward in a preceding manuscript entitled "Hardware-Related Practical Exercises in ICT", I have taken a similar concern for my previous Business and Management students whereby I was devising practical works for them for modules "Business Computer Environment" and "Information Systems". In this manuscript, a successive set of 35 cohesively written practical exercises in softwares, pertaining to the field of Business and Management, has been laid forward, in a similar style as in the preceding manuscript. The objective of facilitating young...
