A modern process plant is controlled, operated and safeguarded by the sophisticated distributed control system or a programmable logic controller and an emergency shutdown system. This process plant’s operation could be seriously affected by lightning, electrical switching, and power outrage. Lightning propagation can travel kilometers away, which has the risk of disturbing the control system’s…

The income generated from the tourism sector exhibits the main driving force for national revenues in Indonesian. Based on data from the Ministry of Tourism in Indonesia, it turns out that the potential tourist category originated from the cluster of college students or school-aged cohort. In this line, social media signifies a similar age of…

It elaborates four crucial and important areas in relation to purchasing and supply management. These includes; Identifying the process involved in purchasing, how information systems are implemented and used in enhancing the supply process, understanding the key…

Nowadays, smartphones and laptops equipped with cameras have become an integral part of our daily lives. The pervasive use of cameras enables the collection of an enormous amount of data, which can be easily extracted through video images processing. This opens up the possibility of using technologies that until now had been restricted to laboratories,…

In the present paper, a universal approach for determining the maximum flow problem in directed graph for solving different problems is applied. It can be considered as a heuristic and it can be used as a denomination for analyzing an arbitrary system with a mathematical description as a directed graph. The physical nature of the…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in IPFA 2019. In the original work, a new memory bit-counting method in physical failure analysis (PFA) using laser deprocessing technique (LDT) is introduced. In the present paper, LDT will be further exploited and the methodology applied to PFA will be fully discussed. Compared to the…

This article is part of the field of Multi-Criteria Decision Aid (MCDA), where several criteria must be considered in decision making. All criteria are generally as varied as possible and express different dimensions, and aspects of the decision problem posed. For more than four decades, several MCDA methods have emerged and have been applied perfectly…

Novel ionic polymers were synthesized by crosslinking of poly (vinylalcohol) (PVA) with sulfosuccinic acid (SSA) and silicotungstic acid (SiWA) with or without silica. The polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) was developed using solution casting method. Infrared (IR) spectra revealed that the Keggin structure was insered in the PVA films. The thermal decomposition of the…

In this paper, we present a new method to deduce minimal cut sets depending on the minimal path sets of the complex systems (networks) to generate the Incidence Matrix, and then compared it with the truth table of the system. This comparison, based on some algebraic properties, gives minimal-cut sets of the complex network with…

This paper is an extension of Novel Flexible Chip-less Bow-Tie RFID tag in which we presented the design, testing and fabrication of the tag and compared the results with Octagonal Chipless RFID tag. The chipless RFID tag was designed by using simulation software CST microwave studio and fabricated by using laser etching technique on a…

Cloud computing is the development of information technology to provides resources that can be accessed through network. Security and privacy in cloud computing are major concern for companies. Therefore, cloud computing architecture strategy and design are needed to reduce costs and ensure the security of company assets in cloud computing. In this study, we are…

The insulation condition of a transformer decides the longevity of the equipment. The unpredicted failure of power transformer will lead to major disaster in the distribution network and it affects both environment and public safety. Nowadays synthetic oil and natural esters are alternatives to transformer oil because of the biodegradable nature. In this paper, investigations…

Millimeter-wave (mmW) antenna is one of the most important parts of the fifth-generation (5G) systems because of its advanced characteristics, for example, wideband and high transmission rate. In this paper, an mmW 4×1 array antenna with high gain and wideband based on an aperture coupled feeding patch (ACFP) antenna is presented. The proposed array antenna…

Suppose we want to classify a query item Q with a classification model that consists of a large set of predefined classes L and suppose we have a knowledge that indicates to us that the target class of Q belongs to a small subset from L. Naturally, this filtering will improve the accuracy of any…

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…

Wireless Body Area Networks support the operation within multiple frequency bands. Thus, they can be integrated in several applications, one of which is on-body medical monitoring applications, as concerned in this paper. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to present the impact of transmission power and both of Differential Binary Phase Shift Keying and…

The Hausdorff distance (HD) is defined as MAX-MIN distance between two geometric objects for measuring the dissimilarity between two objects. Because MAX-MIN distance is sensitive with the outliers, in face recognition field, average Hausdorff distance is used for measuring the dissimilarity between two sets of features. The computational complexity of HD, and also average HD,…

Soil moisture is a fundamental factor for smart farming that is used to control the water management system. In this paper, the unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) small cell (UAV-SC) can provide Internet of things (IoT) as the hotspot mobility network, due to the minimum limitation energy of connected IoT.
