Nowadays, the Internet has become an indispensable tool for the realization and continuity of activity at a different time, place, and technological context (e.g., mobile, pc, tablet), so that interaction techniques through the use of multi-device support have become of great interest. From this perspective, continuity in interactions is an essential concept in the face…

This article copes with the formal verification of properties of the missions building module of PILOT’s software. PILOT is a language dedicated to remote control of robots. An incremental syntax-oriented editor was built in order to increase the dependability of PILOT’s missions and we showed that, under a maximum size of plan, this editor allows…

In vital energy applications especially the agricultural environments, the service of adaptive power utilization plays an essential role in facilitating the usage of Internet of Things systems. Such environments are distinguished by the large range of lands where most of the region lacks the commercial power lines. Reaching some high or deep sensing points is…

Social media attracts a lot of users around the world. Many reasons drive people to use social media sites such as expressing opinions and ideas, displaying their diaries and sharing them with others, social communication with family and friends and building new social relationships, learning and sharing knowledge. Written text is one of the most…

Online fashion market is constantly growing, and an algorithm capable of identifying garments can help companies in the clothing sales sector to understand the profile of potential buyers and focus on sales targeting specific niches, as well as developing campaigns based on the taste of customers and improve user experience. Artificial Intelligence approaches able to…

This manuscript exhibits a perfect design for a flexible number of modified DC nanogrids within an open energy distribution network (OEDN) that interconnected via a DC bus. Each modified nanogrid implies a single-input multi-output switched boost inverter (SIMO-SBI). The DC-output for each inverter is robustly controlled to keep the DC-bus interconnected voltage constant. The proposed…

Modern power systems are topologically and structurally complicated due to their complex interconnections. Consequently, the complexity of the dynamic stability assessment be-comes more tedious, most especially, when considering a power electronics-based power system operating under faulty conditions. This paper, therefore suggests an alternative approach of Network Structural-Based Technique (NSBT) for the analysis and enhancement of…

Hearing impairments have a negative impact in the lives of individuals living with them and those around such individuals. Different applications and technological tools have been developed to help reduce this negative impact. Most mobile applications that have been developed that use Speech-to-Text technology have been inconsistent such that they are not inclusive of all…

The article investigated the banking determinants of loans’ growth using the quarterly data of Albanian banking sector during 2003-2018. We estimated the linear model of control variables to examine the bank’s sound effects on loan’s capacity. Empirical results demonstrated the initial positive outcome of the growth of non – performing loans on the loans’ growth,…

In the modern marketing system in a mass consumer society, the central place is given to the formation and promotion of brands. Professional conceptual approaches to brand management are able to preserve and increase the value and stability of the brand and allow the brand to survive in the most difficult competitive and crisis market…

Disruptive innovation has created fast changes in the business environment and competition among companies, especially on information technology companies. Knowledge creation and entrepreneurial orientation are two variables that can improve firm performance. There is still limited study on how knowledge creation and entrepreneurial orientation both affects firm performance. This study aims to discuss how to…

This paper proposes an active disturbance rejection control (ADRC) design for a haptic display platform structure. The motivation for the following scheme originates from the shortcomings faced by classical proportional integral derivative (PID) controllers in control theory. The ADRC is an unconventional model-independent approach, acknowledged as an effective controller in the existence of total plant…

The current concept of open innovation corresponds to the R&D products transfer model – “role changes”. One of the fundamental provisions of the model is that R&D products are considered for commercialization not only at the final stage of technological readiness, but at any of them. In today’s changing market environment, special attention is paid…

Despite the significant progress made in data mining technologies in recent years, breast cancer risk prediction and diagnosis at an early stage using DNA microarray technology still a real challenging task. This challenge comes especially from the high-dimensionality in gene expression data, i.e., an enormous number of genes versus a few tens of subjects (samples).…

Addiction such as tobacco smoking affects the human brain and thus causes significant changes in the brainwaves. The changes in brain wave due to smoking can be identified by focusing on changes in electroencephalogram pattern, extracting different time-frequency domain features. In this aspect, a laboratory-based study has been presented in this paper, for assessing the…
