Acceleration of machine-learning hardware solutions is needed to meet the requirements of real-time applications. This paper proposes a new implementation of a machine learning classifier on Field…

Over the last decades, numerous distributed consensus-based algorithms have found a wide application as a complementary mechanism for data aggregation in wireless sensor networks. In this paper, we provide an analysis of the generalized Metropolis-Hastings algorithm for data aggregation with a fully-distributed stopping criterion. The goal of the implemented stopping criterion is to effectively bound…

Since the release of of the IPv6 Routing protocol for Low-Power and Lossy Networks by the IETF ROLL working group, several enhancement schemes were proposed. In fact, They aim to extend the network lifetime, reduce congestion, mitigate end to end delay and moderate energy consumption. In fact, considering the vast area of Low-Power and Lossy…

East Java province is a large province in Indonesia, in which Surabaya is the second largest metropolitan city after Jakarta. Various problems of development inequality in East Java have caused East Java to be defined as a disadvantaged area in 2015. The determination of disadvantaged regions is carried out every 5 years using 6 criteria…

Ad-Hoc networks are self-organized wireless networks. Finding a secure and efficient route leading from a specific source node to an intended destination node is one of the serious concerns in mobile Ad-Hoc networks. ARANz is one of the significant protocols that has been proposed for such networks. ARANz implements the authentication methods used with the…

Analysis and classification of lung diseases using X-ray images is a primary step in the procedure of pneumonia diagnosis, especially in a critical period as pandemic of COVID-19 that is type of pneumonia. Therefore, an automatic method with high accuracy of classification is needed to perform classification of lung diseases due to the increasing number…

This paper focuses on a string encoding algorithm, which produces sparse distributed representations of text data. A characteristic feature of the algorithm described here, is that it works without tokenizing the text and can avoid other data preparation steps, such as stemming and lemmatization. The text can be of arbitrary size, whether it is a…

Cancer is the leading cause of death in world. Currently, there are no approved vaccines to avoid the spreading of this disease. Drug discovery have played important role for discover of new potent drugs that could efficiently and cost-effectively. Pyrazoline analogue compounds known to have good potency as anti-cancer. The aim of this study is…

Education has seen the rapid development of online learning. Many researchers have conducted studies on the use of recommendation systems in online learning. However, until now, several similar studies still focus on the accuracy of the prediction results. Various obstacles were encountered related to changes in the face to face learning process into online learning.…

Global changes caused by the IV Industrial revolution and globalization processes resulted in a redistribution of roles of participants in innovative infrastructures of countries. Universities are leading both in terms of generating R&D products and in terms of developing business activities. Now there is a problem of insufficient methodological support of technological universities for pricing…

Low power OTAs are the most preferred circuits in the realization of continuous time filters of analog front end of wearable healthcare devices. A low transconductance OTA with series parallel current mirror to realize large time constant of the filter is designed. The differential pair of the OTA uses bulk driven PMOSFETs and the subthreshold…

Vehicle systems are controlled by embedded electronic devices called electronic control units (ECUs). These ECUs are connected together with network protocols. The Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol is widely implemented due to its high fault tolerance. However, the CAN is a serial broadcast bus, and it has no protection against security threats. In this paper,…

This paper studies a trade-off between security (intercept probability (IP)) and reliability (outage probability (OP)) for a multi-hop decode-and-forward (DF) relaying protocol in an underlay cognitive radio network, in presence of a multi-antenna eavesdropper. In the considered protocol, all primary and secondary terminals are equipped with multiple antennas, and they employ transmit antenna selection (TAS)…
