Polyphase FIR filters and Fant's re-sampling algorithm for securing information in critical information infrastructures: a new approach
Efficiently managed algorithms and functional models are built so that they can comply with large scale of hardware devices, which can bring new life and offer extended capabilities to present day and future information devices. In this study, a newly derived algorithm has been implemented. It supplies coefficients to be used in a structure similar to the one that the finite impulse response ...

Assessing supply chain dependency on critical infrastructures using fuzzy cognitive maps
For identifying critical infrastructures, the potential consequences of their loss to society must be estimated. This requires establishing consequence propagation through the complex network of CI and supply chains. This study investigates the viability of a novel method for this purpose, which exploits fuzzy cognitive map (FCM) theory to evaluate the impact of service disruption of one ...

Assessing the firm's strategic knowledge portfolio: a framework and methodology
It is now widely acknowledged that knowledge rather than capital assets is the source of wealth in today's global economy in which firms increasingly are competing in knowledge-intensive markets. Consequently, firms are seeking to gain a better understanding of how their organisationally-embedded knowledge can be exploited to gain and maintain competitive edge in a turbulent marketplace. To be ...

Integrating soft and hard risks
All organisations need continually to improve and make efficiency savings without introducing unacceptable risks. Savings can be made by new collaborations and sharing at the interface between processes. Processes are what people do and so we use them to deliver value. We can also think and use process differently to improve performance. To identify added value we use a process map which shows ...

Optical encoders and LiDAR scanning
Overview Modern technology is taken for granted; a driver only needs to type a destination into a SATNAV system and step-by-step instructions, journey distance and duration, driving conditions and hazards, as well as alternative routes, instantly appear. In order to work, highly accurate and up-to-date maps are required of an entire country's road network. This non-trivial task ...

Managing Data Centers with Cloud Solutions
Up until the recent years, businesses haven’t considered using cloud technologies for transferring and storing business-critical data. This was changed with the adoption of hybrid digital infrastructures, which consist of a mix of on-premises and cloud-based systems. This change further increases the complexity of data center management, as the infrastructure needs to be seamlessly ...

Bi-communal reuse of treated effluent in Cyprus
Cyprus is using almost all of its renewable water resources. Groundwater is rapidly depleting and sea water intrusion is occurring in the main coastal aquifers. Providing water for the expanding domestic and tourism sectors, while maintaining the agricultural sector, is becoming a critical issue. Complicating matters of water management, the island has been divided since 1974 into the Republic ...
