Among the most popular tools in security field is the anomaly based Intrusion Detection System (IDS), it detects intrusions by learning to classify the normal activities of the network. Thus if any abnormal activity or behaviour is recognized it raises an alarm to inform the users of a given network. Nevertheless, IDS is generally susceptible…

The objective of the research is to determine the changes in wrinkling and thinning behavior in the stamping process of the top outer hatchback. The study was conducted using two types of materials, i.e., SCGA (Steel Cold rolled Galvanized Annealed) and SPCC (Steel Plate Cold rolled Coiled) with a thickness of 0.80 mm. During the…

The emerging trend of modern industry automation requires intelligence to be embedded into mobile robot for ensuring optimal or near-optimal solutions to execute certain task. This yield to a lot of improvement and suggestions in many areas related to mobile robot such as path planning. The purpose of this paper is to review the mobile…

Network Analyzer is equipment widely used for the execution of radio frequency application scattering parameters. Throughout absolute reading the scattering parameter measured. An absolute reading does not include error, drift, offset, linearity, resolution, coefficient of sensitivity and several other variables that will contribute to the measured measurement dispersion. Type A evaluations of measurement uncertainty clarified…

With the current amount of data nowadays, the need for processing power has vastly grown. By relying on CPU processing power, current processing power is depending on the frequency and parallelism of the current CPU device. This means this method will lead to increased power consumption. Current research has shown that by utilize the power…

This paper presents a solution that automates Abaca fiber grading which would help the time-consuming baling of Abaca fiber produce. The study introduces an objective instrument paired with a system to automate the grade classification of Abaca fiber using Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). In this study, 140 sample images of abaca fibers were used, which…

In this paper, we are proposing a device that generates vibration to possibly reduce the duration required for the orthodontic treatment by enhancing the tooth movement. This is achieved by harmonically exciting a bio-compatible material, namely polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) to generate vibration and consequently a cyclic force at a low frequency of 30 Hz. (PVDF)…

The increasing cost of fishmeal and soybean meal forces us to look for unconventional sources of protein to feed guinea pigs, being able to use earthworm meal Eisenia foetida (EF) with 60-80% high quality raw protein; for this, the contribution of digestible nutrients and metabolizable energy must be known to formulate rations. The objective is…

Blockchain is a new generation technology that allows the central control mechanism or trusted authority to be removed, spreading the encrypted data across all participants in the network in a distributed database structure instead of central trust. The Smart Contract structure, which defines the rules and flow that allow the things we value to operate…

This research makes the improvement of the errors surrounding edges and corners of thin electromagnetic regions by means of the magnetic field finite element formulation. Classical thin shell electromagnetic models are usually replaced by impedance-type interface conditions throughout surfaces that ignore errors in the calculation of the local fields (magnetic vector potentials, magnetic fields, eddy…

The increase in the number of elderly people requires multiple efforts to maintain their well-being and health. A wide variety of products and services have been created to enable seniors to live at home for as long as possible. The market success of these solutions depends on acceptance by the different stakeholders. Older people are…

Most buildings are equipped with various types of sensors to detect smoke in the event of a fire, though most are located internally. Practically, smoke has to reach the sensor in order for the sensor to react. The limitations of these sensors are their inability to respond in the early stages of a fire, and…

Human behavior quantification is an essential part of psychological science. One of the cases is measuring human personality. Social media provide rich text, which can be beneficial as a data source to get valuable insight. Previous researches show that social media offered favorable circumstances for psychological researchers by tracking, analyzing, and predicting human character. In…

In recent years, cyber security has been received interest from several research communities with respect to Intrusion Detection System (IDS). Cyber security is “a fast-growing field demanding a great deal of attention because of remarkable progresses in social networks, cloud and web technologies, online banking, mobile environment, smart grid, etc.” An IDS is a software…

The development of electronic healthcare systems requires to adopt modern technologies and architectures. The use of Electronic Personal Health Record (E-PHR) should be supported by efficient storage such as cloud storage which enables more security, availability and accessibility of patients’ records. Actually, the increase of availability of E-PHR enhances parallel access, which improves the performance…

Prior to the 19th century discovery of Portland Cement (PC), Lime Based Mortar remained popular due to its flexibility, permeability and more importantly, associated low carbon emissions. However, lime’s characteristic delayed setting/hardening time, low mechanical strength, poor internal cohesion and some volumetric changes have overshadowed significance of its outstanding features particularly, flexibility, and consequently put…

Nowadays Augmented Reality (AR) is very popular in teaching and learning, especially in leading student to observe learning material targets which supported by online learning resources using mobile device and wireless technology. Because English is a foreign language, most students have problems in learning English. Generally, their problems were related to low motivation, bad study…

The need to optimally explore Nigeria’s diverse mineral resource endowments via sustainable value chain practices has, in recent times, been the focus of the Nigerian government and relevant stakeholders. This development has amongst other things, been made a necessity since the decline in Nigeria’s crude oil export and earnings, as well as the increased effort…

Dry Eye Disease (DED) is one of the commonly occurring chronic disease today, affecting the vision of eye. It causes severe discomfort in eye, visual disturbance and blurred vision impacting the quality of life of patients. Due to recent advancements in Artificial Intelligence (AI) and rapid progress of analytics techniques, several image modality based computerized…

This paper uses the RC-triggered MOSFET-based electrostatic discharge (ESD) power clamp to conduct ESD from ESD events and not affect the ultra-low power sensor system. Then using the stacked device include stacked MOSFET or stacked BJT to reduce the leakage current which increases with temperature. Moreover, we compare gate-driven method and two-level–driven with both gate-driven…

The need for air conditioning in rural areas where there is no source of electricity, leads to look for alternative solutions. Usage of Solar thermal system drive vapor jet refrigeration cycle (VJRC) instead of the traditional air conditioning systems, contributes in the reduction of the Global Worming and Ozone Depletion.
