Specifically, the DPD is employed to Radio over Fiber links that contrive of Vertical Cavity Surface Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) working at 850 nm. Both, Memory…

The main importance of solar photovoltaic energies research is to meet the many environmental demands of the energy challenge, to maximize power and to reduce the costs of photovoltaic (PV) systems to reply the energy needs of population. In the present research work, the first objective is to study the performance and the output energy…

The modern stage of information technology development is characterized by the acute need to use cognitive technologies for the solution of tasks of practice, in particular, in the sphere of real world objects monitoring and management. Practical usage of cognitive systems of monitoring is significantly limited to two factors now: operation at the level of…

The problems in information security regarding vulnerabilities, threats and risks in voting systems for popular election in Latin America and the world persist; because in most of the countries of the world there is no maturity in democracy and defined policies; the problems of confidentiality, integrity and authenticity in the electoral processes can be evidenced.…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in 2018 Global Smart Industry Conference (GloSIC). Researches are devoted to the development of Smart technology for complex objects control and prediction on the basis of a distributed Honeywell DCS control system of the TengizChevroil enterprise using the example of a technological process of medium pressure…

The purpose of this paper is to improve the thermographic method for detection the places of heat energy losses on the urban underground thermal pipelines using the computer system. This goal was achieved by building a heat map of the surveyed heating main with data layering directly on a computer map of the area, which…

We examine design principles from more than 20 years of experience in the implementation and protection of mission critical flight systems used by the Mission Design and Navigation Section at NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Spacecraft navigation has rigorous requirements for completeness and accuracy, often under critical and uncompromising time pressure. Fault tolerant and robust design…
