Bayesian estimation of Unit-Weibull distribution based on dual generalized order statistics with application to the Cotton Production Data

The Unit Weibull distribution with parameters $α$ and $β$ is considered to study in the context of dual generalized order statistics. For the analysis purpose, Bayes estimators based on symmetric and asymmetric loss functions are obtained. The methods which are utilized for Bayesian estimation are approximation and simulation tools such as Lindley, Tierney-Kadane and Markov chain Monte Carlo methods. The authors have considered squared error loss function as symmetric and LINEX and general entropy loss function as asymmetric loss functions. After presenting the mathematical results, a simulation study is conducted to exhibit the performances of various derived estimators. As this study is considered for the dual generalized order statistics that is unification of models based distinct ordered random variable such as order statistics, record values, etc. This provides flexibility in our results and in continuation of this, the cotton production data of USA is analyzed for both submodels of ordered random variables: order statistics and record values.

A Novel Application Licensing Framework for Mobile Cloud Environment

Mobile cloud computing is a new technology that enhances smartphone applications capabilities in terms of performance, energy efficiency, and execution support. These features are achieved via computation offloading technique that is supported by specialized mobile cloud application development models. However, the cloud-enabled applications are prone to application piracy issue for which the traditional licensing frameworks are of no use. Therefore, a new licensing framework is required to control application piracy in mobile cloud environment. This paper presents a preliminary design of a novel application licensing framework for mobile cloud environment that restricts execution of applications on unauthenticated smartphones and cloud resources.

Framework for Ubiquitous Social Networks

This paper presents a novel framework for ubiquitous social networks (USNs). Instead of making virtual connections, on the basis of human social networks, an effort has been made to facilitate interactions among human social networks with the help of virtual social networks. The imperative domains that support ubiquitous social networks are highlighted and different scenarios are provided to project real world applications of proposed framework. Our proposed framework can provide preliminary foundations for creating ubiquitous social networks in true essence.
