Ethereum smart contract system has seen a steady adoption as it continues to support tens of thousands of contracts. This feature has evolved to give a practical shape to the ideas leading up to fractional ownership transfer, using advanced smart contracts such as ERC-981. However, alongside its numerous benefits, various risks arise with the actual…

Stop and Wait (SW) ARQ, Go Back N (GBN) ARQ, and Selective Repeat (SR) ARQ are the main ARQ (Automatic-Repeat-reQuest) protocols used to ensure reliable delivery of digital data at correct sequence. These protocols are implemented at the DLC (Data Link Control) sub layer of Data Link Layer (DLL) of OSI (Open System Interconnection) network…

The functional priority of Health Information Exchanges (HIEs) is to ensure a timely transference of health data. Because of the frequency at which health records are transferred and the variety of health data HIEs receive, there are major challenges in efficiently accomplishing this. Cloud technology has become a generally accepted solution to remediate data transference…

ECG analysis is commonly used by medical practitioners and cardiologists for monitoring cardiac health. A high-performance automatic ECG classification system is a challenging area because there is difficulty in detecting and clustering various waveforms in the signal, especially in the manual analysis of electrocardiogram (ECG) signals. In this paper, an accurate (ECG) classification and monitoring…

Modern digitalized cyber domains are extremely complex ensemble. Cyber attacks or incidents against system may affect capricious effects for another system or even for physical devices. For understanding and training to encounter those effects requires an effective and complex simulation capability. Cyber Security Exercises are an effective expedient for training and learning measures and operations…

Machine learning has been dramatically advanced over several decades, from theory context to a general business and technology implementation. Especially in healthcare research, it is obvious to perceive the scrutinizing implementation of machine learning to warranty the rewarded benefits in early disease detection and service recommendation. Many practitioners and researchers have eventually recognized no absolute…

In the recent times power shortage has been a major setback to deal for the effective operation of power systems. Bridging the gap between generation and demand is known as Demand Side Management (DSM). For an effective DSM strategy to be implemented, it is crucial that both utility and customers be involved. By DSM, the…

Practically level of design element (i.e., explore, sharing, connect) is an essential of heutagogical approach. The self-determined learning process can be at ease with the implementation of these elements, and the critical step is reliability to measure teaching and learning feedback. Although various instruments were proposed in the literature to assess heutagogy elements, the specific…

Machine learning classifiers provide many promising solutions for data classification in different disciplines. However, data classification at run time is still a very challenging task for real-time applications. Acceleration of machine-learning hardware solutions is needed to meet the requirements of real-time applications. This paper proposes a new implementation of a machine learning classifier on Field…

Over the last decades, numerous distributed consensus-based algorithms have found a wide application as a complementary mechanism for data aggregation in wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we provide an analysis of the generalized Metropolis-Hastings algorithm for data aggregation with a fully-distributed stopping criterion. The goal of the implemented stopping criterion is to effectively bound…

The evolution of IT keeps growing worldwide, especially mobile technology. Today, mobile technology not only held by adults but also kids. The proportion of kids who used smart- phones is increasing each year. The growing technology in mobile applications encourages developers to build educational apps to help kids learn to know alphabets, numbers, animals, and…

Ad-Hoc networks are self-organized wireless networks. Finding a secure and efficient route leading from a specific source node to an intended destination node is one of the serious concerns in mobile Ad-Hoc networks. ARANz is one of the significant protocols that has been proposed for such networks. ARANz implements the authentication methods used with the…

Analysis and classification of lung diseases using X-ray images is a primary step in the procedure of pneumonia diagnosis, especially in a critical period as pandemic of COVID-19 that is type of pneumonia. Therefore, an automatic method with high accuracy of classification is needed to perform classification of lung diseases due to the increasing number…

The technology of Big Data got the capability to process large amounts of data, manage them effectively and make retrieval whenever it is required. Decision making in any organisation is a challenging task since decisions need to be made based on the accessibility of data and its status, this becomes more challenging especially in large…

Optimal integration of distributed generation (DG) into the distribution system results in reduced power losses and improved bus voltages. In this article, a combination of two techniques has been analyzed: The integration of DG and reconfiguration of the distribution system by removing the Normally Open Point NOP in different places of the system. These two…

Vehicle systems are controlled by embedded electronic devices called electronic control units (ECUs). These ECUs are connected together with network protocols. The Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol is widely implemented due to its high fault tolerance. However, the CAN is a serial broadcast bus, and it has no protection against security threats. In this paper,…

Senior projects allow students to move the learning process from basic knowledge to an interdisciplinary approach. The purpose of this research is (1) to analysis attitude and perception, which is a collaboration between teachers and students to develop a model for clustering of appropriate advisors and advisee who cooperate in senior project, and (2) to…

Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) include a large number of sensor nodes that are connected to each other with the limitations in energy sources, battery life, memory, mobility and computational capacity. Since the traditional layered architecture was appropriate only for the wired network. It works within a strict boundary that leads to more energy usage as…

At present, in the era of digitization the organizations need Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to have the ability adapt to changes with rapid response in order to increase the competitive advantage.
