The SENSORIA Reference Modeling Language (SRML) aims at modelling composite services at a high level. Continuous time SRML extends SRML so that it can model services whose components can perform both discrete processes and continuous processes. In order to show how continuous time SRML is applied, in this paper, we systematically introduce our study on…

The Japanese writing system is unique due to the number of characters employed and the methods used to write words. It consists of three different ’alphabets’, which may result in the methods used to process Latin script not being sufficient to obtain satisfactory results when attempting to apply them to a recognition of the Japanese…

Serious games are at the forefront of discussions about the future of learning. Research shows that they can help improve student motivation and knowledge transfer by making learning experiences more pleasurable. Teaching practices are increasingly enhanced or complemented by serious games; skills and knowledge are developed by recreating realistic situations allowing learners to enhance their…

Service robots are applied in many kinds of business fields and its various kinds of data can be collected with service robot in business scenes. Therefore, it becomes more important to utilize such data for business improvement. Additionally, due to limitation of design such as body size and battery life, a service robot cannot prepare…

The ageing of oil-immersed power transformers triggers several defects and damages in the insulating materials, particularly in the cellulose insulation. The decomposition of the cellulose paper produces dissolved gases into the insulating oil, in which the Dissolved Gas Analysis (DGA) of the oil samples can provide insights to incipient faults sustained by the transformer as…

In the last decade, South Africa has attracted and attained more investment by means of the Renewable Energy Independent Power Producer Procurement Programme (REI4P), which is, a structured invitation to Independent Power Producers (IPPs) to submit a bid to generate and supply power to the electrical grid. In spite of REI4P’s undeniable triumph, a much-discussed…

Lean Six Sigma (LSS) is a renowned approach for boosting operational excellence and competitive advantage through integrated core objectives of value creation and variation reduction. Despite its proven benefits in many leading companies, LSS implementation in the food sector is still behind compared with other sectors. LSS implementation is costly, and most businesses have failed…

We propose and analyze new impedance matching schemes to enhance applied voltage to an optical modulator and light modulation for a subcarrier multiplexed light transmitter or a radio-on-fiber transmitter that carries radio-frequency signal through an optical fiber. Our proposal includes two methods using a quarter-wavelength impedance transformer and a tapered microstrip line for impedance matching…

This paper describes what can be accomplished by understanding sound environments. Understanding sound environments is achieved by extracting the features of the sound and visualizing the features. The visualization is realized by converting the three features, namely, loudness, continuity, and pitch, into RGB values and expressing the sound with color, where the color is painted…

Navigation of a moving object (drone, vehicle, robot, and so on) and related localization in unknown scenes is nowadays a challenging subject to be addressed. Typically, different source devices, such as image sensor, Inertial Measurement Unit (IMU), Time of Flight (TOF), or a combination of them can be used to reach this goal. Recently, due…

Data stream gained obvious attention by research for years. Mining this type of data generates special challenges because of their unusual nature. Data streams flows are continuous, infinite and with unbounded size. Because of its accuracy, decision tree is one of the most common methods in classifying data streams. The aim of classification is to…

The paper examines the company’s proprietary means for determining the quality of a software product and measuring its technical debt. The paper’s authors explain how a software product’s quality is directly correlated with the amount of varying technical debts that the end-users receive. All debts can be paid, and technical debt is no exception: one…

The persistent difficulties in reading and spelling acquisition are a risk factor for learning motivation. Play-like intervention tools have been developed to face these difficulties. “I read” is a software that seeks to develop and introduce systematic reading and spelling skills training in a playful and complementary way. This software is intended for children at…

The deep learning-based URL classification approach using massive observations has been verified especially in the field of phishing attack detection. Various improvements have been achieved through the modeling of character and word sequence of URL based on convolutional and recurrent neural networks, and it has been proven that an ensemble approach of each model has…

Central authorities have registered economic transactions based on trust since the dawn of time. With the advent of paper, methods for documenting transactions and records became more difficult and detailed. With the widespread use of computers in recent years, digital recording has made record keeping easier and since then every technical advancement has made data…

In this work we discuss a special technique for powering of sensor systems, based on a low-power primary cell consisting of two electrodes, made from different metals, with water (lake, rain or tap water) used as an electrolyte. Once placed into an aqueous solution, the primary cell generates a small electric current, which may be…

Scientists succeeded in implementing conventional public switch telephone network (PSTN) into internet protocol by launching H.323 IP telephony. The irrelevant and unknown captions in H.323, computer scientists have replaced H.323 by Session Initiation Protocol (SIP) for Voice-over-IP (VoIP). However, the security of voice communication over IP is still a major concern. Besides, security and performance…

It is shown that it can be effectively implemented in mathematics lessons at school. The purpose of this study is to develop and substantiate a strategy for the formation of an alternative style of thinking among students…

A transition towards electrification of the public transport sector is ongoing in many cities around the world, as a response to global warming and pollution. However, the question is whether the current state of technology is already sufficient to replace the conventional buses with electric ones and if the existing charging facilities are appropriate to…

Internet addiction (IA) has adverse effects on psychophysiological responses, interpersonal relationships, and academic and occupational performance. IA detection has received increasing attention. Although questionnaires enable long-term assessment (over 6 months) and physiological measurements to aid the short-term evaluation (over 2 min) of IA, the lack of algorithms results in an inability to detect IA in…
