Incorporating global positioning data in real time P2P audio/video streams for mobile devices

We propose an original method to geoposition an audio/video stream with multiple emitters that are at the same time receivers of the mixed signal. The achieved method is suitable for those comes where a list of positions within a designated area is encoded with a degree of precision adjusted to the visualization capabilities; and is also easily extensible to support new requirements. This method extends a previously proposed protocol, without incurring in any performance penalty.

P2P audio/video protocol with global positioning data in real time for mobile devices

In this paper, we propose an original method to geoposition an audio/video stream with multiple emitters that are at the same time receivers of the mixed signal. The obtained method is suitable when a list of positions within a known area is encoded with precision tailored to the visualization capabilities of the target device. Nevertheless, it is easily adaptable to new precision requirements, as well as parameterized data precision. This method extends a previously proposed protocol, without incurring in any performance penalty.

Tecnologie per l’analisi in tempo reale di Big Data: prestazioni a confronto

Lo scopo di questo l'elaborato è l'analisi,lo studio e il confronto delle tecnologie per l'analisi in tempo reale di Big Data: Apache Spark Streaming, Apache Storm e Apache Flink. Per eseguire un adeguato confronto si è deciso di realizzare un sistema di rilevamento e riconoscimento facciale all’interno di un video, in maniera da poter parallelizzare le elaborazioni necessarie sfruttando le potenzialità di ogni architettura. Dopo aver realizzato dei prototipi realistici, uno per ogni architettura, si è passati alla fase di testing per misurarne le prestazioni. Attraverso l’impiego di cluster appositamente realizzati in ambiente locale e cloud, sono state misurare le caratteristiche che rappresentavano, meglio di altre, le differenze tra le architetture, cercando di dimostrarne quantitativamente l’efficacia degli algoritmi utilizzati e l’efficienza delle stesse. Si è scelto quindi il massimo input rate sostenibile e la latenza misurate al variare del numero di nodi. In questo modo era possibile osservare la scalabilità di architettura, per analizzarne l’andamento e verificare fino a che limite si potesse giungere per mantenere un compromesso accettabile tra il numero di nodi e l’input rate sostenibile. Gli esperimenti effettuati hanno mostrato che, all’aumentare del numero di worker le prestazioni del sistema migliorano, rendendo i sistemi studiati adatti all’utilizzo su larga scala. Inoltre sono state rilevate sostanziali differenze tra i vari framework, riportando pro e contro di ognuno, cercando di evidenziarne i più idonei al caso di studio.

Sediment echosounding data files from the Amundsen Sea

The flow of ice streams, which account for most discharge from large ice sheets, is controlled by processes operating at their bed. Data from modern ice stream beds are difficult to obtain, but where ice advanced onto continental shelves during glacial periods extensive areas of the former bed can be imaged using modern swath sonar tools. We present new multibeam swath bathymetry data analyzed alongside sparse pre-existing data from the Amundsen Sea Embayment. The compilation is the most extensive, continuous area of multibeam data coverage yet obtained on the inner continental shelf of Antarctica. The data reveal streamlined subglacial bedforms that define a zone of paleo-ice stream convergence but, in contrast to previous models, do not show a simple down-flow progression of bedform types along paleo-ice stream troughs. We interpret high spatial variability of bedforms as indicating a complex mechanical and hydrodynamic regime at the former ice stream beds, consistent with observations from some modern ice streams. We conclude that care must be taken when using bedforms to infer paleo-ice stream velocities.
