The ability to think and the social abilities of junior high school students is a potential ability developed through learning based on the optimization of differences in learning abilities. For this reason, appropriate learning design and implementation model is needed in realizing this, especially in one of the social group subjects. This study uses research…

Knowledge-based approach is wield used in various NLP applications. For example, to evaluate the semantic similarity between words, the semantic evidence in lexical ontologies (wordnets) is commonly used. The success of the English WordNet (EnWN) in this domain has inspired the creation of several wordnets in different languages, including the Arabic WordNet (ArWN). The English…

From amateur players who enjoy sports throughout their lives to top athletes who participate in international competitions, interest in improving sports skills is growing. Coaches and their coaching are indispensable for improving sports skills, but it is difficult for many athletes, especially amateur athletes, to secure coaching. However, we thought that anyone could easily receive…

The revolution in the electrification of conventional vehicles due to increased petroleum prices and environmental concerns has had its impact on three-wheeler vehicles as well. Motorized three-wheeled vehicles, known as Auto-rickshaws, are a standard mode of trans- portation in India. Existing battery operated electric rickshaws (known as E-rickshaws) available in major cities of India faces…

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…
