  Affordable Housing Policies in Egypt after the 2011 Revolution: More of the Same?

  David Sims

  Egypt is a country of its people. What has been the effect on its inhabitants of the 2011 revolution and subsequent developments? In 2013, a conference held under the auspices of Cairo Papers in Social Science examined this issue from the points of view of anthropologists, historians, political scientists, psychologists, and urban planners. The papers collected here reveal the strategies that various actors employed in this situation.

  Development of a hybrid solar power management unit for mobile platforms

  Ahmed A. Abdelmoaty, Amr Helmy, and Yehea Ismail

  A hybrid power management unit was developed to interface photovoltaic energy to loads, and meeting its challenges such as variation of power, unregulated voltage and limited power, the unit implements a Maximum Power Point Tracking (MPPT) to maximize the output power under environmental variations. The power management system proposed applies photovoltaic harvested energy effectively to mobile devices. It mainly consists of an MPPT block and a Power Distribution Control Unit (PDCU). Different cases of operation exist depending on the availability of power, load needs, and battery state of charge. Analysis and simulation results are provided to demonstrate system functionality and sensitivity.

  Social pervasive systems: The harmonization between social networking and pervasive systems

  Soumaia Ahmed Al Ayyat

  The recent advancement in mobile device sensor technology, coupled with the wealth of structured accessible data of social networks, form a very data-wealthy ecosystem. Such an ecosystem is rich in bi-directional context that can flow between the mobile and social worlds enabling the creation of an elitist breed of pervasive services and applications. We label the breed resulting from the merger as Social Pervasive Systems (SPS). © 2014 IEEE.

  A pricing-based cooperative spectrum sharing stackelberg game

  Ramy E. Ali, Karim G. Seddik, Mohammed Nafie, and Fadel F. Digham

  In this paper, we study the problem of cooperative spectrum sharing among a primary user (PU) and multiple secondary users (SUs) under quality of service (QoS) constraints. The SUs network is controlled by the PU through a relay which gets a revenue for amplifying and forwarding the SUs' signals to their respective destinations. The relay charges each SU a different price depending on its received signal-to-interference-and-noise ratio (SINR). The primary relay controls the SUs network and maximize any desired PU utility function. The PU utility function represents its QoS, which is affected by the SUs access, and its gained revenue to allow the access of the SUs. The problem of maximizing the primary utility is formulated as a Stackelberg game and solved through three different approaches, namely, the optimal, the heuristic and the suboptimal algorithms. © 2014 IFIP.
