Human emotional states can transform naturally and are recognizable through facial expressions, voices, or body movements, influenced by received stimuli. However, the articulation of emotions is not practicable by every individual, even when feelings of joy, sadness, or otherwise are experienced. Biomedically, emotions affect brain wave activities, as the continuously functioning brain cells communicate through…

Phasor Measurement Unit (PMU) is an integral device for tracking, protection, and regulation of the power network. PMU gives synchronised calculations of actual-time data for voltage phasor, current phasor, and the frequency. Placing PMU in every node to observe the power network is not realistic from an economic standpoint and even for big data management.…

Recent technological advances allow us to utilize remote monitoring systems or real-time access of data. While the use of remote monitoring systems is not new, there are still numerous applications that can be explored and improved on, one such is groundwater level and quality monitoring. In the Philippines, the extraction of groundwater for both domestic…

This article proposes a cost-aware autoscaler for microservices-based applications deployed with docker containers. This autoscaler decreases the cost of the application deployment as it reduces computing resources. In elastic treatment, microservice resources are scaled when the used metric as the central processing unit (CPU) exceeds the threshold. In case of threshold exceeding, an autoscaler adds…

The results investigated in this work are toward the optimization of the photonic crystal structures in 1D and 2D scale. One-dimensional distributed Bragg reflectors (DBRs) have demonstrated substantial potential in various optoelectronic applications, due to the observed tunable optical band-gap. Herein, the use of DBRs in light trapping solar cells was simulated and validated, representing…

Reconfigurable systems are considered as promising technology that enables the design of more flexible and dynamic applications. However, actually existent design flows are either low-level (so complex) or they lack support for automatic synthesis. In this paper, we present an ontology-based modeling approach for reconfigurable systems. Our approach is based on model-driven engineering process and…

Complete manual annotation of dependency treebank needs resources like annotators and annotation tools and takes long time and has high possibility of inconsistent annotations for free word order languages such as Myanmar. This paper describes a dependency head annotation scheme with Universal part-of-speech and Universal Dependencies for Myanmar dependency treebank. Currently 22,810 sentences and 680,218…

A modern process plant is controlled, operated and safeguarded by the sophisticated distributed control system or a programmable logic controller and an emergency shutdown system. This process plant’s operation could be seriously affected by lightning, electrical switching, and power outrage. Lightning propagation can travel kilometers away, which has the risk of disturbing the control system’s…

Traditional crossroads use traffic lights, but may cause delays due to its stop and wait process. Moreover, autonomous vehicles are being made, although it is not yet mass-produced. This work presents a design and implementation of an agile system that communicates and coordinates autonomous vehicles entering the intersection by adjusting their speeds and maneuvers to…

This paper presents the results of the research conducted with the help of cognitive cybernetics about the “mass” factor from the theory of totalitarianism. According to the expert system model, “big data” analysis sought to discover knowledge for assessing the future status of digital social connectivity. Originally developed models and methods of cognitive and computer…

The income generated from the tourism sector exhibits the main driving force for national revenues in Indonesian. Based on data from the Ministry of Tourism in Indonesia, it turns out that the potential tourist category originated from the cluster of college students or school-aged cohort. In this line, social media signifies a similar age of…

Transformer health assessment techniques, based on applicable standards, such as the dissolved gas analysis (DGA), through laboratory testing or online monitoring are used to analyze the symptoms of a failure which develops in transformers from an early stage. The DGA from a sample of dielectric liquid taken from the main tank generates information on the…

This paper comprehensively focused on the information systems for purchase process optimization (IS) that are currently being used. It elaborates four crucial and important areas in relation to purchasing and supply management. These includes; Identifying the process involved in purchasing, how information systems are implemented and used in enhancing the supply process, understanding the key…

This research describes new traffic congestion analysis method “Traffic Congestion Triangle” based on more than one month real traffic big data analysis in India.

In this report, polymeric composites made from Polypropylene (PP) and talc powder were studied. The talc powder with different portions of 10%, 20%, 30% by weight was used to create samples. The samples were examined by the tensile test and the flexural test according to ASTM D638 and ASTM D790. The surface morphology of the…

Until recent years, code quality was not given due significance, as long as the system produced accurate results. Taking into account the implications and recent losses in critical systems, developers have started making use of static code analysis tools, to assess the eminence of source code in terms of quality. Static code analysis is conducted…

The problematic of plastic pollution in the world has led to an interest in the research and development of thermoset starch-protein blend bioplastics as a possible alternative for single use non-recyclable plastics. However, these bioplastics lack the physico-chemical characteristics that make them useful as a replacement for the currently used plastics. This work aims to…

In this study, an adaptive nonlinear sensorless controller for doubly fed induction generator (DFIG) driven by a wind turbine is proposed. The aim is to maximize the extracted power by tracking the wind turbine optimal torque-speed characteristic without the need for rotor speed measurement. This controller ensures a satisfactory tracking of both stator flux and…
