While Virtual reality is becoming more popular, 360-degree video transmission over the Internet is challenging due to the video bandwidth. Viewport Adaptive Streaming (VAS) was proposed to reduce the network capacity demand of 360-degree video by transmitting lower quality video for the parts of the video that are not in the current viewport. Understanding how…

The solar photovoltaic (PV) power generation industry has experienced substantial, ongoing growth over the past decades as a clean, cost-effective energy source. As electric grids use ever-larger proportions of solar PV, the technology’s inherent variability—primarily due to clouds—poses a challenge to maintaining grid stability. This is especially true for geographically dense, electrically isolated grids common…

The study aimed to create a chronological overview of the royal development projects initiated by King Rama IX and to analyze their spatial distribution patterns. The research used a mixed-methods approach, combining quantitative and qualitative data collection methods such as obtaining data from relevant offices, internet research, and field observations. Data analysis involved descriptive statistics…

South African Drainage and Stormwater Systems in urban roads has been of great concern, more so with recent flash floods in Gauteng and KwaZulu Natal Province in South Africa. Pervious concrete can be used to mitigate these challenges for urban roads. Pervious concrete is a concrete that contains no fines or only a small amount…

A resume is a prevalent and generally employed method for individuals to showcase their proficiency and qualifications. It is typically composed using diverse customized, personalized methods in multiple inconsistent formats (such as pdf, txt, doc, etc.). Screening candidates based on the alignment of their resume with a set of job requirements is typically a labori-…

Cybercriminal exploits integrity, confidentiality, and availability of information resources. Cyberattacks are typically invisible to the naked eye, even though they target a wide range of our digital assets, such as internet-connected smart devices, computers, and networking devices. Implementing network anomaly detection proves to be an effective method for identifying these malicious activities. The traditional anomaly…

Cloud computing has emerged as a pivotal component of contemporary IT systems, affording organizations the agility and scalability required to meet the ever-changing demands of business. However, this technological evolution has introduced a new era of cybersecurity challenges, as attackers employ increasingly sophisticated strategies to breach cloud networks. Such breaches can have far-reaching consequences, including…

The advent of laparoscopic surgery has increased the need to incorporate simulator-based training into traditional training programs to improve resident training and feedback. However, current training methods rely on expert surgeons to evaluate the dexterity of trainees, a time-consuming and subjective process. Through this research, we aim to extend the use of object detection in…

Many prosthetic hands are focused on appearance and grip strength, however, gestures are also one of the performances that users need for communicating with others as body language to express their feeling and intention. For this paper, the initial prototype of the gesturing robotics hand is presented by using multiple types of actuators concept to…

Liver cancer is a major contributor to cancer-related mortality both in the United States and worldwide. A range of liver diseases, such as chronic liver disease, liver cirrhosis, hepatitis, and liver cancer, play a role in this statistic. Hepatitis, in particular, is the main culprit behind liver cancer. As a consequence, it is decisive to…

Mental stress assessment remains riddled with biases caused by subjective reports and individual differences across societal backgrounds. To objectively determine the presence or absence of mental stress, there is a need to move away from the traditional subjective methods of self-report questionnaires and interviews. Previously, it has been evidence that EEG Oscillations can discriminate mental…

In the context of adopting cloud Infrastructure-as-a-Service (IaaS), prospective consumers need to consider a wide array of both business and technical factors associated with the service. The development of an intelligent tool to aid in the assessment of IaaS offerings is highly desirable. However, the creation of such a tool requires a robust foundation of…

The human resource development of robotics and automation in the smart factory is an important factor in “Thailand 4.0” roadmap, which is following the industry 4.0 model. To pursue this goal of Thailand 4.0 roadmap of labor development, the effective and intuitive training system must be easy to understand. This study proposes the implementation of…

Early warning systems have had a significant impact on society by providing timely information to mitigate the effects of natural disasters. To enhance early warning capabilities, researchers are exploring the use of digital terrestrial television systems to broadcast alerts across large urban and rural areas. In this research project, the aim is to integrate the…

“Seven ReImagined” is an innovative transmedia storytelling project that reshapes the exploration of the seven deadly sins in a modern context. Building upon the original artwork “Seven”, this venture incorporates traditional media, digital tools, and the latest immersive technologies to cultivate profound user engagement and interaction. The project’s objective is to enhance understanding of timeless…

This article explains the fundamental principles of the economic policy that are integrated into the decentralized public platform Waterfall. The platform has a DAG (Directed Acyclic Graph) based system architecture and is designed to develop decentralized applications and financial services. The main goal of this work is to create a favorable environment that incentivizes positive…

Like many STEM research projects, the members of the National Science Foundation-funded STEM SEALS project dramatically shifted from in-person delivery of a summer institute to distance-learning with minimal time for preparation. However, the daunting challenge also offered the unique opportunity to apply Design-based Research within an exploratory study to inform and document the progression and…

The quality of the electric power system must be maintained properly, one of which is voltage. Under certain operating conditions, the bus voltage may drop below its minimum level, called bad voltage. A large reactive load can cause a voltage drop across the bus or the location of the bus is far from the generator…

Continuously Variable Series Reactor (CVSR) is a device that can vary the reactance in an ac circuit by controlling the magnetization of a ferromagnetic core, shared by ac and dc windings. The bias dc current can change the equivalent ac reactance(inductance) in order to, for example, control load flow, damp oscillations, or fault current limitation.…

The main contradiction identified in the study is that the existing scientific and methodological solves of economy development management processes does not create prerequisites for improving the efficiency of their work, the introduction of progressive technologies for material and moral stimulation of the work of performers and administrative and managerial personnel, advanced social mechanisms for…
