The main purpose of this paper is to present a reusability approach that helps the designer to assess the best practice to restore a heritage building. Based on the literature review, the reusability process and attributes was used as a method to restore the heritage building. Considering these approaches helps the designer to achieve useful…

In the phosphate industry, sulfuric acid is a key compound in phosphoric acid and fertilizer production. Industrially, the sulfuric acid H2SO4 is made generally in a sequence of three main steps: burning liquid sulfur with air, catalytic oxidation of sulfur dioxide SO2 to sulfur trioxide SO3, and formation of H2SO4 by the reaction of H2O…

This paper describes an experimental setup that employs ultrasound to scan an area. This method utilizes ultrasonic waves to scan the surface of a submerged object in a water-coupled medium. A pulse-echo mode is used, and quantitative data are collected at various positions using a two- dimensional automated table. A microcontroller controls the motion of…

A sensor fusion concept integrating the optical and microfabricated eddy-current sensor for the non-destructive testing of the grinding burn is reported. For evaluation, reference grinding burn with varying degrees are fabricated on 42CrMo4 tool steel cylinder. The complementary sensing nature of the proposed sensors for the non-destructive testing of the grinding burn is successfully achieved,…

In a content-based image retrieval system(CBIR) feature classification,identification, and ex- traction play an important role. The retrieval of images using a single feature is a challenging task in CBIR systems. The high retrieval rates are reported based on combining multiple features, multiple algorithms and preprocessing steps, feature classification, and segmentation because the image retrieval are…

Real-time embedded systems are widely adopted in applications such as automotive, avionics, and medical care. As some of these systems have to provide a guaranteed worst-case execution time to satisfy the time constraints, understanding the timing behaviour of such systems is of the utmost importance regarding the reliability and the safety of these systems. In…

Software evolution is one of the software process activities that occupies a major percentage of software development cost. Since requirements change continually and new technologies emerge, software should be adapted to satisfy these new changes to continue to survive. Despite software evolution being performed after software validation and deployment, software developers should predict at earlier…

European counties continue to receive an increasing number of migrants and refugees from an also increasing number of both European and non-European countries. This results in a huge societal challenge which is societal inclusion of people speaking different languages and of diverse backgrounds. Key for their inclusion is job finding which comes with hurdles like…

Everyone needs fast response or output against its request or need. Therefore, technologies are used to make the processing fast and accurate according to our needs. But in some situations, still we need to do more. Especially, when we need to process a massive or huge crowd of people in limited time frame such as…

As a result of digitalization, services become highly dependent on information systems thus increasing the criticality of security management. However, with system complexity and the involvement of more human resources, it becomes more arduous to monitor and track tasks and responsibilities. This creates a lack of visibility hindering decision making. To support operational monitoring, we…

Wireless sensor networks (WSNs) are having large demands in enormous applications for the decade. The main issue in WSNs is estimating the exact location of unknown nodes. All applications are dependent on the location information of unknown nodes in WSNs. Location information of mobile anchor node is used to estimate the location of unknown nodes.…

In vital energy applications especially the agricultural environments, the service of adaptive power utilization plays an essential role in facilitating the usage of Internet of Things systems. Such environments are distinguished by the large range of lands where most of the region lacks the commercial power lines. Reaching some high or deep sensing points is…

Social media attracts a lot of users around the world. Many reasons drive people to use social media sites such as expressing opinions and ideas, displaying their diaries and sharing them with others, social communication with family and friends and building new social relationships, learning and sharing knowledge. Written text is one of the most…

In the modern marketing system in a mass consumer society, the central place is given to the formation and promotion of brands. Professional conceptual approaches to brand management are able to preserve and increase the value and stability of the brand and allow the brand to survive in the most difficult competitive and crisis market…

The current concept of open innovation corresponds to the R&D products transfer model – “role changes”. One of the fundamental provisions of the model is that R&D products are considered for commercialization not only at the final stage of technological readiness, but at any of them. In today’s changing market environment, special attention is paid…

The purpose of the research is an investigation of different accounting software products, their functions, and specific features to make easier choice among variety of similar products and analysis of their pros and cons that can influence on companies’ performance. Authors classified accounting software according to its capabilities to serve the different managerial purposes. Because…
