During microwave heating of materials, the efficiency of microwave heating depends on the materials’ dielectric property, shapes and sizes of the material, materials’ position inside the applicator, operating frequency, level of input power, specific heat capacity, number and position of waveguide over the applicator, size and geometry of applicator etc. This paper examines the effects…

Diabetes is a condition of the body in which blood sugar level is higher than the normal average value. It is considered as a major cause of morbidity worldwide. According to the data reported in 2015,420 million people had diabetes worldwide, type 2 diabetes account for 85% of these cases. This shows 9.2% of the…

During sudden anti-terrorist drives conducted by the law enforcement agencies, a localized cyber security system happens to be a special tactic to avert the unprecedented massacre and gruesome fatalities against the residents of that area by disconnecting the affected territory from the rest of the world; so that the militants and their outside accomplices cannot…

This paper presents a numerical and experimental study of Radar Cross Section (RCS) of radar targets using Gaussian Beam Summation (GBS) method. The purpose GBS method has several advantages over ray method, mainly on the caustic problem. To evaluate the performance of the chosen method, we started the analysis of the RCS using Gaussian Beam…

Today, computing devices of various types with wireless interconnections are used for diverse tasks and increasingly in ad hoc manners. It is not always obvious which devices are present, reachable, and connected when users and their devices are mobile. In such mobile computing environment, the number of registered lines on the network via network operators…

Currently the use of distributed energy resources, especially renewable generation, and demand response programs are widely discussed in scientific contexts, since they are a reality in nowadays electricity markets and distribution networks. In order to benefit from these concepts, an efficient energy management system is needed to prevent energy wasting and increase profits. In this…

Nowadays, text annotation plays an important role within real-time social media mining. Social media analysis provides actionable information to its users in times of natural disasters. This paper presents an approach to a real-time two layer text annotation system for social media stream to the domain of natural disasters. The proposed system annotates raw tweets…

The Internet of Things (IOT) is a revolutionary communication technology which enables numerous heterogeneous objects to be inter-connected. In such a wireless system, interference management between the operating devices is an important challenge. Cognitive Radio (CR) seems to be a promising enabler transmission technology for the 5G-IOT system. The “sense-and-adapt” smart transmission strategy in CR…

Exploring communities and outliers in Social Network is based on considering of some nodes have overlapped neighbor node within the same group as well as some nodes have no any link to the other node or have no any overlapped value. The existing approaches are based on the overlapping community detection method were only defined…

In the present article, we develop multilayer perceptron model for identification of some possible genes mediating different leukemia. The procedure involves grouping of gene based correlation coefficient and finally select of some possible genes. The procedure has been successfully applied three human leukemia gene expression data sets. The superiority of the procedure has been demonstrated…

This paper is devoted to the analysis of aircraft dynamics in the cruise flight phase under windshear conditions. The study is conducted with reference to a point-mass aircraft model restricted to move in a vertical plane. We formulate the problem as a differential game against the wind disturbances: The first player, autopilot, manages, via additional…

Solving the Unit Commitment problem (UCP) optimizes the combination of production units operations and determines the appropriate operational scheduling of each production units to satisfy the expected consumption which varies from one day to one month. Besides, each production unit is conducted to constraints that render this problem complex, combinatorial and nonlinear. In this paper,…

In this study, we use a new proposed framework to develop the Hamiltonian circuit learning games for college students. The framework is for enhancing learners’ activities with learning reflexiveness. The design of these games is based on this framework to achieve the targeted learning outcomes. In recent years, the game-based learning is a very popular…

In the current industrial development, an increasing number of sensors is applied for monitoring of any kind of appliances and machines. A predictive mathematical model allows for realistic assessment of the health state of the appliance, indication of service requirements, as well as control of the appliance, serving as so-called digital twin on a control…

The world’s pollution rates have been increasing exponentially due to the many reckless lifestyle practices of human beings as well as their choices of contaminating power sources. Eventually, this lead to a worldwide awareness on the risks of those power sources, and in turn, a movement towards the exploration and deployment of several green technologies…

Model driven development is an important role in software engineering. It consists of multiple transformation functions. This development is a paradigm for writing and implementing computer program quickly, effectively, at minimum cost and reducing development efforts because it transforms design model to object-oriented code. Our approach is rule-based model driven development in which textual Umple…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in EIC-2017. It deals with influence of the supply frequency for dissipation factor measurements, mainly for tests under power frequency and low frequency. After a theoretical reminder, we present some experiments on single coils and stators of high voltage motors. Finally, we discuss the results and…

The uncertain nonlinear systems can be modeled with fuzzy differential equations (FDEs) and the solutions of these equations are applied to analyze many engineering problems. However, it is very difficult to obtain solutions of FDEs. In this paper, the solutions of FDEs are approximated by utilizing the fuzzy Sumudu transform (FST) method. Here, the uncertainties…

Quality assurance of modern-day safety-critical systems is continually facing new challenges with the increase in both the level of functionality they provide and their degree of interaction with their environment. We propose a novel selection method for black-box regression testing on the basis of machine learning techniques for increasing testing efficiency. Risk-aware selection decisions are…

In this paper, the performance and reliability of oxide-based Resistive RAM (ReRAM) memory is investigated in a 28nm FDSOI technology versus interconnects resistivity combined with device variability. Indeed, common problems with ReRAM are related to high variability in operating conditions and low yield. At a cell level ReRAMs suffer from variability. At an array level,…
