Falling and its resulting injuries are an important public health problem for older adults. The National Safety Council estimates that persons over the age of 65 have the highest mortality rate (death rate) from injuries. The risk of falling increases with age; one of three adults 65 or older falls every year. Demographic predictions of population aged 65 and over suggest the need for telemedicine applications in the eldercare domain. This paper presents an integrated monitoring system for the detection of people falls in home environment. The system consist of combining low level features extracted from a video and heart rate tracking in order to classify the fall event. The extracted data will be processed by a neural network for classifying the events in two classes: fall and not fall. Reliable recognition rate of experimental results underlines satisfactory performance of our system

Today very important means of communication is the e-mail that allows people all over the world to communicate, share data, and perform business. Yet there is nothing worse than an inbox full of spam; i.e., information crafted to be delivered to a large number of recipients against their wishes. In this paper, we present a numerous anti-spam methods and solutions that have been proposed and deployed, but they are not effective because most mail servers rely on blacklists and rules engine leaving a big part on the user to identify the spam, while others rely on filters that might carry high false positive rate.
