CFP: IJDSN - Special Issue (SCIE Indexed), Deadline: Friday, 10 July 2015

International Journal of Distributed Sensor Networks (IJDSN) invites paper for the special issue on -

"Applications of Cognitive Radio Networks: Recent Advances and Future Directions"

Call for Papers

The demand of spectrum increased tremendously due to the recent advancements in wireless communication technology. This dramatic requirement of spectrum has challenged the current spectrum licensing system and inspired authorities to legalize opportunistic spectrum access. Recently, many authorities, researchers, and hardware manufacturers are working to solve this virtual scarcity issue. Cognitive radio (CR) networks are suitable in this mitigation, by utilizing licensed spectrum opportunistically. CR is rapidly proliferating into many wireless communication fields. Spectrum sensing, spectrum sharing, coexistence, spread spectrum, and MIMO techniques have become areas of concern over the past decade. More recently, many researchers are working in various application areas of cognitive radio networks (CRNs) and cognitive radio wireless sensor networks (CR-WSNs).

How to install gcc-3.3 in Ubuntu 9.04

Today I tried to install gcc-3.3 in Ubuntu9.04 in my PC. I followed following steps. I found 2 patches to solve the errors in the Internet.
(NOTE: - means delete, and + means add as in Patch file)

1. Download gcc-core3.3.tar.bz2 and gcc-g++-3.3.tar.bz2
2. bzip2 -cd gcc-core3.3.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -
bzip2 -cd gcc-g++-3.3.tar.bz2 | tar xvf -
3. mkdir build
4. cd build
5. /home/xxxx/gcc/gcc-3.3/configure --prefix=/opt/gcc33 --program-suffix=33 --enable-languages=c,c++

6. If there are errors from /usr/include/bits/studio-lock.h file
then comment the /*#include */
- #include
+ /*#include */
7. If there are errors from gcc/gcc-3.3/include/obstack.h file ("/read-rtl.c:653: error: lvalue required as increment operand")
Change line#423 in gcc/gcc-3.3/include/obstack.h
- *((void **)__o->next_free)++ = ((void *)datum); \
+ *((void **)__o->next_free) = ((void *)datum);
+ __o->next_free += sizeof(void *); \
8. If there are errors from decl.c file
Apply gcc42-patch-gcc-3.3.1_gcc_cp_decl.c patch from ftp.nsysu.edu.tw/FreeBSD/FreeBSD-current/ports/palm/prc-tools/files/gcc42-patch-gcc-3.3.1_gcc_cp_decl.c
9. If there is an error "gcc/collect2.c:1779:/usr/include/bits/fcntl2.h:51: error: call to ‘__open_missing_mode’ declared"
Then, in the line number 1776 of gcc/collect2.c
- redir_handle = open (redir, O_WRONLY | O_TRUNC | O_CREAT);
+ redir_handle = open (redir, O_WRONLY | O_TRUNC | O_CREAT, 0666);
10. make
11. Follow http://www.mjmwired.net/resources/mjm-fedora-gcc.html

Few useful commands:
sudo apt-get install gcc
find /usr/bin |grep gcc
find /usr/bin |grep g++
stat /usr/bin/gcc

$ cd /usr/bin
The default gcc version
$ gcc --v

Delete the old symbolic links
$ sudo rm cpp gcc g++

Change the symbolic links to 3.3: (Find where the gcc33 is installed. In this example we installed in /opt/gcc33/bin (we gave the command while installing gcc as: --prefix=/opt/gcc33).

$sudo ln -s /opt/gcc33/bin/g++33 /usr/bin/g++
$sudo ln -s /opt/gcc33/bin/gcc33 /usr/bin/gcc
$sudo ln -s /opt/gcc33/bin/cpp33 /usr/bin/cpp

Check the default gcc version

$ gcc --v

It should show new gcc version.

How to install flash player on Opera in Ubuntu?

Easiest way to install flash player on Opera in Ubuntu.

Are you frustrating with your Opera because you cannot play Youtube videos because it ask you to install Flash player, but you can't find/install for Opera?

Here is the simple steps. It's for newbies (as I am).  NOTE: This procedure works only if Flash player is installed for Firefox. 

Step-1: Change to the hidden directory

$cd ~/.opera

Step-2: Open and edit pluginpath.ini file. Add this line at the end of the file and save the file. (Note: CLOSE OPERA WHILE EDITING pluginpath.ini FILE.)

/home/qwerty/.mozilla/plugins=1

Step-3: Open Opera. Now, it works fine.

Problem with NS-2

Problem: Makefile:314 *** commands commence before first target. Stop.
Solution: DO NOT use tab or copy/paste spaces from previous line when you add .o in makefile. Use only space.
