Biometrics technologies have been around for quite some time and many have been deployed for different applications all around the world, ranging from small companies' time and attendance systems to access control systems for nuclear facilities. Biometrics offer a reliable solution for the establishment of the distinctiveness of identity based on "who an individual is", rather than what he or she knows or carries. Biometric Systems automatically verify a person's identity based on his/her anatomical and behavioral characteristics. Biometric traits represent a strong and undeviating link between a person and his/her identity, these traits cannot be easily lost or forgotten or faked, since biometric systems require the user to be present at the time of authentication. Some biometric systems are more reliable than others, yet they are neither secure nor accurate, all biometrics have their strengths and weaknesses. Although some of these systems have shown reliability and solidarity, work still has to be done to improve the quality of service they provide. Presented is the available standing biometric systems showing their strengths and weaknesses and also emerging technologies which may have great benefits for security applications in the near future.

Abstract--- In this research paper we have presented a comparison among two Information Retrieval models namely, Inverted file and Signature file for investigating their performance in Arabic Information Retrieval Systems. We have studied both models as to judge the models performance and their effectiveness. arabic 16 English 108

This paper is presenting a discrete-event simulator written in C++ for modeling and simulating Fat tree network-on-chip systems based on MPLS technique. The simulator contains main component that construct butterfly Fat tree structure and other components that generate suitable number of switches and IP nodes (cores). The designed switch consists of input ports, output ports, input/output link controller, multi-buffers, crossbar switch, routing and arbitration components and MPLS unit. The correctness and the efficiency of the MPLS based Fat network-on-chip system is measured against well-known wormhole+ virtual channels technique. The produced results are clearly demonstrated the efficiency of the MPLS technique for future NoC designs. arabic 45 English 189
