Degradation measurements are often treated and analyzed for improvement the reliability of system. Our objective in this paper is to study a class of non linear systems, whose dynamics and observations are non linear functions of the state. Obviously, we develop an Extended Kalman Filtering (EKF) algorithm for detecting the additive failures in a two…
Read MoreOn the Use of Triple Graph Grammars for Model Composition
In the software engineering research, several works focus on advantages of multi-modeling, which facilitate modeling a system by separating of concerns. The Model Driven Engineering approach relies on model to design software artefacts during the software development lifecycle. Handling such models involves describing some model management operators like ‘ composition ‘. That is an operation…
Read MoreActiverest: Design of A Graphical Interface for the Remote use of Continuous and Holistic Care Providers
One of the most prevalent physical limitations of both aging and accidents is immobility. Being bedridden requires great care to avoid the formation of pressure ulcers. Thus, the ‘ActiveRest’ project aimed to develop a textile mattress guard that will contribute to the prevention of pressure ulcers. This textile mattress guard integrates a monitoring system, based…
Read MoreDeterminants of Students’ Actual use of the Learning Management System (LMS): An Empirical Analysis of a Research Model
This study built and tested a research model to determine the determinants that impact students’ actual use of the learning management system. A survey questionnaire was used to gather data from 148 university students who used LMS in their course of study. The structural equation model was used to analyze quantitative data.
