    In the healthcare environment, digital images are the most commonly shared information. It has become a vital resource in health care services that facilitates decision-making and treatment procedures. The medical image requires large volumes of storage and the storage scale continues to grow because of the advancement of medical image technology. To enhance the interaction and coordination between healthcare institutions, the efficient exchange of medical information is necessary. Therefore, the sharing of the medical image with zero loss of information and efficiency needs to be guaranteed exactly. Image compression helps ensure that the purpose of sharing this data from a medical image must be as intelligent as possible to contain valuable information while at the same time minimizing unnecessary diagnostic information. Artificial Neural Network has been used to solve many issues in the processing of images. It has proved its dominance in the handling of noisy or incomplete image compression applications over traditional methods. It contributes to the resulting image by a high compression ratio and noise reduction. This paper reviews previous studies on the compression of intelligent medical images with the neural network approach to data sharing

    Abstract The Data Warehousing Institute (TDWI) estimates that data quality problems cost U.S. businesses more than $600 billion a year. The problem with data is that its quality quickly degenerates over time. Experts say 2 percent of records in a customer file become obsolete in one month because customers die, divorce, marry, and move. In addition, data entry errors, system migrations, and changes in source systems, among other things, generate bucket loads of errors. More complex, as organizations fragment into different divisions and units, interpretations of data elements change to meet the local business needs. However, there are several ways that the Company should concern, such as to treat data as a strategic corporate resource; develop a program for managing data quality with a commitment from the top; and hire, train, or outsource experienced data quality professionals to oversee and carry out the program. The Organizations can sustain a commitment to managing data quality over time and adjust monitoring and cleansing processes to changes in the business and underlying systems by using the Commercial data quality tools. Data is a vital resource. Companies that invest proportionally to manage this resource will stand a stronger chance of succeeding in today's competitive global economy than those that squander this critical resource by neglecting to ensure adequate levels of quality. This paper reviews the characteristics of big data quality and the managing processes that are involved in it

    The Internet of Things (IoT) is a rising innovation, including a wide range of uses identified with modern control, savvy metering, home mechanization, horticulture, health, etc. For these applications to run independent the IoT gadgets are required to make do for a considerable length of time and years under severe vitality imperatives. When growing such applications, it is significant for the application to think about its own energy consumption. In this work, we propose and assess an energy consumption estimation approach for occasional detecting applications running on the IoT gadgets. Our methodology depends on three stages. In the main stage, we distinguish the unmistakable exercises, for example, rest, transmit, detect and process in a detecting cycle. In the subsequent stage, we measure the power consumption of these exercises before the IoT gadget has been conveyed in the arrange. The third stage happens at run-time once the IoT gadget has been sent, to convey the energy consumption of a detecting cycle. The energy consumption is determined by utilizing the exercises control and their spans acquired at run-time. The proposed methodology is basic and conventional on the grounds that it doesn’t include any intricate equipment for runtime control estimation. Besides, this methodology likewise consolidates the dynamic idea of detecting applications by run-time estimation of energy consumption

    Quality of service provisioning in optical burst switching network

    Future trend in communication system is to move to all-optical network. Optical Burst Switching (OBS) has been proposed as a new paradigm for switching and data transfer in all-optical network. One of the main challenges in deploying OBS network is to ensure QoS guarantee in minimising the contention and latency. The objective of this thesis is to develop OBS network that can ensure Quality-of- Service (QoS) by designing the ingress node that minimises delay and core node that minimises contention. In the ingress node, priority queueing (PQ) and burst assembly are deployed in differentiated service aware environment to decrease packet delay. Meanwhile, in the core node, integral of Fiber Delay Line, Wavelength Assignment and Wavelength Preemption (FDL-WA-WPremp) are proposed to minimise Burst Loss Probability (BLP) due to contention. In FDL, contending bursts are sent to travel over a longer fiber line and are, thus, delayed for a specific amount of time. In wavelength assignment, each traffic class has a pre-assigned wavelength for the transmission of bursts. Finally the wavelength preemption technique allows the higher priority traffic to preempt the lower priority traffic, when there is contention or, no available bandwidth for the transmission of the higher priority traffic. Three DiffServ class types that represent multimedia applications, including real time constant bit rate Expedited Forwarding (EF) traffic, real-time variable bit rate Assured Forwarding (AF) traffic and non-real time Best Effort (BE) traffic are investigated in the study. The proposed OBS network and traffic models have been developed using JAVA platform simulator and validated with mathematical analysis. The proposed OBS network performance parameters have been analysed based on BLP, packet end-to-end delay, bandwidth utilisation and throughput. The results show that the proposed OBS network with FDL_WA_WPremp, PQ and hybrid burst assembly; that is an event where burst is generated whenever the maximum assembling time is achieved or a minimum burst size is obtained, whichever occurs first, significantly improve the OBS network throughput by 10% compared to the technique without contention resolution. The proposed OBS network enhances the performance of EF, AF and BE traffic with BLP reduction of up to 70%, 42% and 34% respectively compared with OBS network with FDL only. In addition, the endto end delay performance of the EF and AF traffic deploying FDL_WA_WPremp with hybrid based assembly environment give 21.7% and 17.2% improvement compared to FDL_WA_WPremp with timer based. The overall findings prove that QoS provisioning can be guaranteed through FDL_WA_WPremp, PQ and hybrid burst assembly in OBS network. The proposed OBS network can therefore be deployed in the future all-optical network

    Contention resolution in OBS using FDL-WA-WPREMP in hybrid based burst assembly

    As optical burst switched networks offer connectionless transport, there exists the chance that burst may contend with one another at intermediate nodes. Contention will happen if multiple bursts from various input ports are meant for the same output port all at once. We introduce a new approach FDL-WA-WPremp to reduce the burst loss probability during contention. Through simulation and analytical modeling, it is shown that the policy introduced reduces burst loss substantially when compared to the standard policy of dropping the contending burst in the event of contention
