In November 2012, an experiment demonstrating biological mimicry method for covert underwater acoustic communication (UAC) was conducted at Lianhua Lake in Heilongjiang China. Dolphin whistles were used for synchronization while dolphin clicks were used as information carrier. The time interval between dolphin clicks conveys the information bits. Channel estimates were obtained with matching pursuit (MP) algorithm, which is useful for sparse channel estimation. Adaptive RAKE Equalization was employed at the receiver. Bit error rates were less than 10−4 with 37 bits per second data rate in the lake trial.
In today's world, the degree of technological and requirements change and market dynamics need fast responsiveness to sustain a competitive advantage. The ability of an enterprise to succeed in such a competitive environment is highly dependent on their capacity in developing software with faster speed. To work with such a pace enterprises are creating increasingly sophisticated software with requirements for business with efficiency. The practices required to develop these systems must conform to the increasing degree of innovation and also the evolving needs of organizations. Agile helps the enterprises to produce value more efficiently and continuously on a periodic and predictable schedule. This study provides a summary of the Agile from implementation perspective by discussing multiple agile methods, including its strategies, principles, practices and values for implementation. According to this study and observations, agile methodologies can provide excellent benefits for medium and small scaled projects. Also, explains how one can scale Agile for large projects using SAFe 4.0.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
