Despite this importance of institutional environments and arrangements in dairy marketing, studies focusing on institutional analysis of dairy marketing have not been done in the study area.

Abstract With the increase in vehicle production and world population, more and more parking spaces and facilities are required. In this research a new parking system called Smart Parking System (SPS) is proposed to assist drivers to find vacant spaces in a car park in a shorter time and save effort. The new system uses sensors to detect either car park occupancy or improper parking actions. Features of SPS include display of available parking spaces, payment facilities and different types o...
Abstract Parameter estimation is a growing area of interest in statistical signal processing. Some parameters in real-life applications vary in space as opposed to those that are static. Most common methods in estimating parameters involve solving an optimization problem where the cost function is assembled variously, for example, maximum likelihood and maximum a posteriori methods. However, these methods do not have exact solutions to most real-life problems. It is for this reason that Mont...
