In the last year, especially in Europe, the expression “digital sovereignty” has been used very frequently to describe, above all, the primacy of a State. Indeed, the “digital sovereignty” is a complex concept, which entails cross-reference with several sectors and contexts. We believe that the concept of “digital sovereignty” can be two sides of a…

The Smart Contract structure, which defines the rules and flow that allow the things we value to operate…

This research paper portraits the technique to determine location of submerged nodes with Cayley-Menger determinant and associated problems with non-parallel states. Cayley-Menger determinant is considered to be the usual means to determine the coordinates of the nodes with a single node where the plane of beacon i.e. beacon’s surfing plane and the plane created by…

Analytical researches on a potential performance of multipath multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) systems inspire the development of new technologies that decompose a MIMO channel into independent sub-channels on the condition of constrained transmit power. Moreover, in current studies of inter-symbol interference (ISI) MIMO systems, there is an assumption that channel state information (CSI) at receivers and/or…

The experimental findings of the main units of readout electronics of silicon photomultipliers (SiPMs) based on array chip (AC) МН2ХА030: a charge-sensitive amplifier (CSA) with an adjustable conversion factor and a base line restorer (BLR) circuit and two types of voltage comparators are considered. The electrical circuits of the units, the measurement results of static…

In recent years, cyber security has been received interest from several research communities with respect to Intrusion Detection System (IDS). Cyber security is “a fast-growing field demanding a great deal of attention because of remarkable progresses in social networks, cloud and web technologies, online banking, mobile environment, smart grid, etc.” An IDS is a software…

It is difficult to accurately segment brain MRI in the complex structures of brain tumors, blurred borders, and external variables such as noise. Much research in developing as well as developed countries show that the number of individuals suffering tumor of the brain has died as a result of the inaccurate diagnosis. The proposed article,…

Prior to the 19th century discovery of Portland Cement (PC), Lime Based Mortar remained popular due to its flexibility, permeability and more importantly, associated low carbon emissions. However, lime’s characteristic delayed setting/hardening time, low mechanical strength, poor internal cohesion and some volumetric changes have overshadowed significance of its outstanding features particularly, flexibility, and consequently put…

Dementia is one of the three primary diseases that increases the level of nursing care required for the elderly. Dementia can lead to an increased burden not only on those who have contracted it, but also their families and the surrounding environment; initiatives for preventing dementia and slowing the decline of cognitive function are expected…

In this paper, the vulnerabilities and the security attacks against vehicular networks, SDN architecture and some security solutions for SDVN are studied. Secondly, a complete and improved version of the secure HSDN-GRA routing protocol based on a distributed trust model is proposed where public keys of the vehicles are managed in a distributed way. Besides,…

Flash memory reliability and the performance have been confirmed as an improvement in the storage subsystem technological advancement, especially in supporting an embedded system solution. Conversely, the main constraint of the storage device is the erase-before-write characteristic in handling both write and re-write I/O operations. More attention must be taken into consideration to handle both…

To supply a stable and efficient electricity, small-scaled wind turbine’s brake system plays an immense role in various wind speeds. Small-wind power generation systems are difficult to operate in strong wind region since the turbine could be over-rotated and damaged if the brake system is not robust enough to maintain a stable angular velocity. Most…

Limited functionalities of the Academic Progress Information System (SIsKA) has direct consequences on the quality of thesis management service at the authors’ magister study program of the authors’ university. This research focused on the significant improvement from the previous User Experience Questionnaire (UEQ) result of SIsKA. That significant improvement was based on the recommendations from…

In the new technologies for producing electricity from wind gusts, a new class of wind power converter has been proposed. The hybrid autogyro uses the principle of autorotation to generate lift. This paper proposes to take advantage of this rotation to also generate energy. There are systems that use flying wings or airplanes to reach…

Unreinforced masonry (URM) wall is one of the oldest types of walls used around the world. During earthquakes, URM walls present a real danger to life safety due to their behavior characterized by a brittle failure caused by their feeble shear resistance to in-plane loads, which make their strengthening necessary. Numerous studies had been used…
