With regard to education in Peru, it was paralyzed for a long time and only obtained in later months the option…

Computer vision is a technique used for processing images and videos which are increasingly becoming ubiquitous day by day. Technologies developed are revolving around human needs and demands high computational power as volume of data increases. The extraction of the necessary information for processing, that is independent of various scene complexity is a challenging task.…

This paper covers a new topology, a synchronous wind turbine generator, and a solar photovoltaic generator. The Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator is linked to the grid by back-to-back voltage source converters (BtB VSC), consisting of a two-stage rectifier and a five-stage Neutral Point Clamped inverter, operated by the Space Vector Pulse Width Modulation technique. A…

Empathy is an attribute of importance between the nursing professional and the patient, where it influences the recovery of their health. Several studies carried out have shown worrying results where they reflect a great decrease in empathy during the formative academic years. The objective of the study is to determine empathy in nursing interns from…

Academic certifications are achievements desired by people, because they have a direct impact, positively, on their social lives. Such an important document, still widely issued in paper format, may be subject to forgery or impossibility of verification due to the unavailability of the issuing entity. This work consists of identifying, analyzing and testing some of…

Connected and self-driving cars have emerged over the last decade as a leading example of cyber-physical systems, which seek to considerably enhance traffic safety, reduce emissions, decrease costs, and improve efficiency. Google, TESLA, Uber ATG are becoming pioneers in the autonomous vehicles industry. Autonomous vehicles can have a large codebase and with a large volume…

Advances in optimizing optical fiber communications have been on the rise these recent years due to the increasing demand for larger data bandwidths and overall better efficiency. Coherent optics have focused on many kinds of research due to its ability to transport greater amounts of information, have better flexibility in network implementations, and support different…

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…

Many recent studies on autonomous driving have focused on model-based control. A number of studies has addressed that simple models such as the Kinematic Bicycle Model are easier to design controls for autonomous driving systems. However, such a simple vehicle model has a weakness in that it is subject to modeling errors. This is because…

Dithering or error diffusion is a technique used to obtain a binary image, suitable for printing, from a grayscale one. At each step, the algorithm computes an allowed value of a pixel from a grayscale one, applying a threshold and, therefore, causing a conversion error. To obtain the optical illusion of a continuous tone, the…

Introduction: Burnout is a real malaise that affects the mental health of teachers. The objective is to determine the prevalence of burnout among primary school teachers in the Wazzane region and to look for associated risk factors. Methods: Descriptive cross-sectional study conducted in 2017- 2018 with a sample of 330 teachers. Socio-demographic and work-related data…

Chatbot is an application that is designed to help humans communicate with machines. NLP and API.AI are some of the components that are crucial in making chatbot as they help chatbot in performing chatting operations. Chatbot could be implemented in many aspects of life such as education, social media platforms, games, even in business. Business…

This work presents the development and improvement obtained by implementing inventory managing practices during the COVID 19 pandemic in a Mexican company, a leader in the industrial sector to overcome the effects on the Company’s economies due to constrained market to maintain liquidity and preserve employment by increasing customer service level ensuring the availability of…

The main objective of this research is to analyze the impact that the implementation of a strategic plan would have on achieving the competitiveness of the micro, small and medium enterprises (MSMEs) that are dedicated to bottling, marketing and distributing water in the city of Los Mochis. It is intended to offer a tool to…

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…

A graphical user interface (GUI) is presented to visualize the multipaths generated by COST 2100 channel model (C2CM) and the results of clustering the wireless propagation multipaths using Modified Simultaneous Clustering and Model Selection (MSCAMSMA). The usual practice of authors is to show their data and results using figures, tables, and graphs which are already…

The world is facing an unprecedented virus outbreak, COVID-19, hitting more than 200 countries. Governments have been striving to prevent the spread of the virus through the lockdown. During the strict lockdown in Jordan, people needed to stay home, and they used available social networks to keep updated on COVID-19, with Facebook, the most popular…

The fight against poverty in the Peruvian Andes is a complex task in which various professionals, such as engineers, economists, anthropologists, among others, participate. The uncertainty of the decisions taken today, no matter how appropriate they may seem, such as million-dollar investments in irrigation infrastructure, can result in over-production and, therefore, in economic recessions. For…

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…
