The programming language used here is the Processing open source software and a database was implemented to manage…

For human comfort and convenience, appropriate temperature values may not be sufficient enough for the environment that they live in. The moisture content of the air has an important place in this regard. 30% to 65% humidity is desireable for a relaxed and comfortable life. Humidity in the environment is fundamental for the human health,…

These last years, the amount of data generated by information systems has exploded. It is not only the quantities of information that are now estimated in Exabyte, but also the variety of these data which is more and more structurally heterogeneous and the velocity of generation of these data which can be compared in many…

Network security implements various strategies for the identification and prevention of security breaches. Network intrusion detection is a critical component of network management for security, quality of service and other purposes. These systems allow early detection of network intrusion and malicious activities; so that the Network Security infrastructure can react to mitigate these threats. Various…

This paper presents a developed low cost system for human gait analysis. Two web cameras placed in opposite sides of a treadmill are used to acquire images of a person walking at different speeds on a treadmill, carrying a set of passive marks located at strategic places of its body. The treadmill also has passive…

Using smart parking systems has become very important, and particularly so for metropolitan areas, because of the benefits for drivers in many aspects, such as time, frustration, stress, and anger, in addition to the increased consumption of fuel while searching for a vacant parking space. This paper proposes a review of recent advances in sensing…

The use of information technology is very useful for today’s life and the next, where the human facilitated in doing a variety of activities in the life day to day. By the development of the existing allows people no longer do a job with difficulty. For that, it takes a system safety home using system…

The availability of traffic data and computational advances now make it possible to build data-driven models that capture the evolution of the state of traffic along modeled stretches of road. These models are used for short-time prediction so that transportation facilities can be operated in an efficient way that guarantees a high level of service.…

This paper describes the concept and configuration of a novel automated safety vehicle stop system, and a future prospect of the study. Intrinsic sudden death may cause traffic accident since such accidents sometimes involve not only the driver but also other traffic users such as passengers and pedestrians. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is considered as a…

In this paper, a novel approach for collision avoidance for indoor mobile robots based on human-robot interaction is realized. The main contribution of this work is a new technique for collision avoidance by engaging the human and the robot in generating new collision-free paths. In mobile robotics, collision avoidance is critical for the success of…

This paper presents a literature review on data flow error detection and recovery techniques in embedded systems. In recent years, embedded systems are being used more and more in an enormous number of applications from small mobile device to big medical devices. At the same time, it is becoming important for embedded developers to make…

This paper proposes a novel intelligent technique that has been designed to optimise the performance of Software Defined Networks (SDN). The proposed hybrid intelligent system has employed integration of intelligence-based optimisation approaches with the artificial neural network. These heuristic optimisation methods include Genetic Algorithms (GA) and Particle Swarm Optimisation (PSO). These methods were utilised separately…

The Static Var Compensator (SVC) is used to improve the stability of the power system because of its role in injecting or absorbing the reactive power in the electrical transmission lines. The Power System Stabilizer (PSS) is also a control device which ensures maximum power transfer and thus the stability of the power system enhancement.…

In this paper, a delay-dependent controller based on the sliding mode concept is proposed to stabilize a networked robotic system in a decentralized synchronization scheme. In addition to being affected by communication time-delays between agents, and seen that external disturbances obviously affect any physical and dynamic system, an unsettling action resulting from measurement errors affects…
