Comparing to other types of vehicle accidents, fatality rate of tipped rollover accidents shows significant number. Thus, tripped rollover prevention systems are important in order to keep driver safe. In other hands, different rollover indices are defined to handle the risk. The variable unknown parameters of each index, for instance, current load of the vehicle…

The performance of indoor illumination control in many applications, such as in an intelligent building, relies on the quality of the light sensors. In many cases, the light level is not uniform and depends on the direction of the illumination source. It usually requires multiple sensors set up in different directions to gather the overall…

The article presents the results…

A happy employee with high morale is the best asset of an organization. The morale of an individual working in an organization can be impacted by both positive and negative ways by physical environment factors of the workplace. The physical environment of an organization impacts a lot on the work performance of an individual. It…

Finger skills are achieved through the training process. This training process will be more straightforward if a training system is used. A novel finger motoric training system is introduced in this paper. This system is to facilitate a beginner piano player to learn the basic piano skill. The system is comprised of a tracking finger…

The adoption of technical decisions in the development of a new aircraft is carried out under the condition of insufficient information on the mass – dimensional and aerodynamic characteristics that will be achieved during the project. Insufficient information on the input parameters (weight and aerodynamic characteristics) leads to uncertainties in the values of the flying…

The paper is aimed as a concise and relatively self-contained description of the educational environment TOST, used in teaching and learning Operating Systems basics such as Processes, Multiprogramming, Timesharing, Scheduling strategies, and Memory management. TOST also aids education in some important IT concepts such as Deadlock, Mutual exclusion, and Concurrent processes synchronization. The presented integrated…

3D city modeling may be considered as one of the key applications, that are provided by the Automated Feature Extraction (AFE) techniques from LiDAR data. The authors attempt to prove that with growing availability of LiDAR surveying methods the resulted 3D city models become the most significant modeled features for any urban environment. Our paper…

The ability to think and the social abilities of junior high school students is a potential ability developed through learning based on the optimization of differences in learning abilities. For this reason, appropriate learning design and implementation model is needed in realizing this, especially in one of the social group subjects. This study uses research…

Project completion is a common and best practice for oil and gas and construction industry. It provides a comprehensive completion approach and gives total confidence to asset owner to operate the facility handed over by construction contractors. While the nature variation of asset hierarchy is unique from one type of asset to another, a project…

In this paper we are demonstrating the importance of building and achieving a renewable electrical power system that works in synchronization with the grid. The average of consumption, generation and the negative environmental effect of generating power were analyzed. This paper is divided into three parts, one was analyzed with Green Building Studio software and…

In this paper we study a cell division cycle modeled by a system of partial differential equations with an age structure. This model translates the many regulatory mechanisms within the cell cycle where it introduces the notion of phases. The individual cell can be either in I phases where the transition between theses phases are…

Logistics is a science and art that has been widely used by large commercial chains, whose main objectives focus on the distribution of products or services. This understanding has generated various logistics studies directed towards those businesses, without considering that science can also be applied to small or medium enterprises. The present study initially executes…

Big data is a vast data set that was used in many areas. Online applications are subject to theft of confidential information because opponents can exploit software errors to access private data, and because curious or malicious officials can capture and lose data. CryptDB is a functional system that provides security and confidentiality through a…
