Multimodal Medical Image Fusion Techniques
Image fusion has become one of the most promising fields in image processing since it plays an essential role in different applications, such as medical diagnosis and clarification of medical images. Multimodal Medical Image Fusion (MMIF) enhances the quality of medical images by combining two or more medical images from different modalities to obtain an improved fused image that is clearer than the original ones. Choosing the best MMIF technique which produces the best quality is one of the important problems in the assessment of image fusion techniques. There are several image modalities, such as Computed Tomography (CT), Positron Emission Tomography (PET), Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), and Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT). Medical image fusion techniques are categorized into six main categories: spatial domain, transform fusion, fuzzy logic, morphological methods, and sparse representation methods.

Location Aware Schemes in IoT
The rapid development in wireless technologies is positioning the Internet of Things (IoT) as an essential part of our daily lives. Localization is one of the most attractive applications related to IoT. In the past few years, localization has been gaining attention because of its applicability in safety, health monitoring, environment monitoring, and security.

Perl 6
Perl 6 is a member of the Perl family of programming languages. While historically several interpreter and compiler implementations were being written, today only the Rakudo Perl 6 implementation is in active development. It is introducing elements of many modern and historical languages. Compatibility with Perl 5 is not a goal, though a compatibility mode is part of the specification. The design process for Perl 6 began in 2000. In February 2015 a post on The Perl Foundation blog stated that "The Perl6 team will attempt to get a development release of version 1.0 available for Larry's birthday in September and a Version 1.0 release by Christmas", and on 25 December 2015, the first stable version of the specification was announced. Development on Pugs, the first high-traction implementation, began in 2005, and there have been multiple Perl 6 implementation projects. Rakudo Perl 6 is based on NQP (Not Quite Perl) and can use MoarVM or the Java Virtual Machine as a runtime environment, and releases a new version every month (including precompiled GNU/Linux packages); in July 2010, the project released the first Rakudo Star distribution, a collection of a Perl 6 implementation and related materials. Larry Wall maintains a reference grammar known as STD.pm6, written in Perl 6 and bootstrapped with Perl 5.

CONFER
CONFER is one of the first computer conferencing systems. Highly sophisticated for its time, it was developed in 1975 at the University of Michigan by then graduate student Robert Parnes. The CONFER system continued to be a widely used communication tool until 1999. CONFER is the progenitor of the computer conferencing systems Caucus, PicoSpan, and YAPP.

Rooftop Solar Photovoltaic Systems
Rooftop solar photovoltaic (PV) retrofitting can greatly reduce the emissions of greenhouse gases, thus contributing to carbon neutrality. Retrofitting distributed rooftops with solar PV is an effective means of promoting “carbon peaking” and “carbon neutral” strategies. Rooftop solar PV is geographically unrestricted. The PV cells can be closely integrated into buildings without taking up additional land resources, not only saving land resources but also improving their utilization rate.

Completion (Algebra)
In abstract algebra, a completion is any of several related functors on rings and modules that result in complete topological rings and modules. Completion is similar to localization, and together they are among the most basic tools in analysing commutative rings. Complete commutative rings have a simpler structure than general ones, and Hensel's lemma applies to them. In algebraic geometry, a completion of a ring of functions R on a space X concentrates on a formal neighborhood of a point of X: heuristically, this is a neighborhood so small that all Taylor series centered at the point are convergent. An algebraic completion is constructed in a manner analogous to completion of a metric space with Cauchy sequences, and agrees with it in case R has a metric given by a non-Archimedean absolute value.

Multidimensional Filter Design and Implementation
Many concepts in one–dimensional signal processing are similar to concepts in multidimensional signal processing. However, many familiar one–dimensional procedures do not readily generalize to the multidimensional case and some important issues associated with multidimensional signals and systems do not appear in the one–dimensional special case.
