This paper is extended from the conference paper. The segmented SAR ADC presents reconfigurable 9 to 12-bit…

Identity and Access Management (IAM) and Single Sign on (SSO) are two security concepts that are related to each other. IAM governs the user access in an organization whereas SSO facilitates the user by authenticating to one centralized application and not having to re-authenticate when trying to access other applications. This paper addresses the different…

The physically-based environmental model is a crucial tool used in many scientific inquiries. With physical modeling, different models are used to simulate real world phenomena and most environmental scientists use their own devices to execute the models. A complex simulation can be time-consuming with limited computing power. Also, sharing a scientific model with other researchers…

This paper presents the input-output feedback linearization and decoupling algorithm for control of nonlinear Multi-input Multi-output MIMO systems. The studied analysis was motivated through its application to a robot manipulator with six degrees of freedom. The nonlinear MIMO system was transformed into six independent single-input single-output SISO linear local systems. We added PD linear controller…

Nowadays, many companies and organizations use various encryption techniques to secure their private data before send it through the unsecure network. However, many attackers try to store private data by using various attacks. Most of the organizations use password based encryption algorithm (PBE) to protect their private data. However, the existing PBE methods are vulnerable…

The contents of this article consist of an extension original work presented at the 4th International Conference on Control, Automation and Robotics (ICCAR 2018) and aims to develop the systematic model of an effective triggering system of production Kanban size towards Just-In-Time (JIT) production system. The developed model was introduced based on the philosophy of…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in the 19th International Conference on Computer Supported Education and Information Technology. This paper identifies motivational factors that ensure the initiation and effective implementation of mathematical activity. These factors are in subordination to each other, forming a hierarchical dependence. At the heart of this hierarchy is…

Cloud Computing is considered nowadays an attractive solution to serve the Big Data storage, processing, and analytics needs. Given the high complexity of Big Data workflows and their contingent requirements, a single cloud provider might not be able alone to satisfy these needs. A multitude of cloud providers that offer myriad of cloud services and…

Conceptually, flood modeling can be done based on process and data availability (data driven model). The implementation of flood mitigation requires accurate data, which can be obtained from high resolution satellite imagery, vertical air photos and high-resolution Digital Elevation Model (DEM). Modeling using high accuracy DEM data can detect landforms in more detail. The objective…

Network motif analysis has several applications in many different fields such as biological study and social network modeling, yet motif detection tools are still limited by the intensive computation. Currently, there are two categories for network motif detection method: network-centric and motif-centric approach. While most network-centric algorithms excel in enumerating all potential motifs of a…

With the increasing need for effective storage management due to ever-growing content-generation over the Internet, Distributed Storage Systems (DSS) has arisen as a valuable tool. Although DSS has considerably improved in the past years, it still leverages legacy techniques in its networking. To cope with the demanding requirements, Software Defined Networking (SDN) has revolutionized the…

Industrial estate firms have important roles in national development through the industrial development. In the course of their life, industrial estate firms ought to follow the firm life cycle pattern. The common pattern shows that the period, in which the firm experiences profit increase, will be directly followed by consistent profit and profit decrease. Should…

The latest design approach for Data Centers (DCs) follows the direction of exploiting optical switching to connect Top-of-Rack (ToR) switches that serve thousands of data storing and computing devices. A ToR’s usual function is the Virtual Output Queues (VOQs), which is the prevalent solution for the head-of-line blocking problem of the DC switches. An effective…
