The web documents are automatically interacting to discover the information by web mining, which is one of the applications of Cloud Computing (CC) technologies. These documents may be in the form of structured, semi-structured, or unstructured formats. In current web technologies, the Semantic Web is an extension for better enabling the people and computers to…

The wide acceptance of the semantic web language RDF for ontologies creation in various application fields has led to the emergence of numerous RDF data processing solutions, the so-called triplestores, for the storage of RDF data and its querying using the RDF query language SPARQL. Such solutions are however developed under various perspectives and on…

This paper is an extension of previous research that has been done on factors affecting digital payment adoption in the UAE. This study focuses on analyzing which relevant demographic factors affect new e-payment technologies, mainly in the smart city Dubai, with more complexities and dynamics of variables that affect users’ behavior toward adopting new technologies.…

Today, the costs of most Renewable Energy (RE) technologies especially hydrogen energy technologies such as fuel cells, are still beyond the means of poorer economies in developing countries. Hence, there is little public awareness and local expertise in RE in these countries and even lesser in hydrogen energy. To solve this problem, it is important…

Software evolution is one of the software process activities that occupies a major percentage of software development cost. Since requirements change continually and new technologies emerge, software should be adapted to satisfy these new changes to continue to survive. Despite software evolution being performed after software validation and deployment, software developers should predict at earlier…

Higher efficiency and lower losses are widely considered as the best metrics to optimize, in a high-power converter performance context. To provide a solution to the ever-increase of high switching frequencies challenges, we must explore soft-switching technologies to resolve interface issues and reduce the switching losses. This manuscript describes a comparative analysis between the fixed-bandwidth…

It has been observed that the smartwatches have emerged quickly on the digital era with the ability to significantly influence daily life and improve users’ wellbeing, decisions, and behaviour. Nonetheless they are in their stages of adoption, smartwatches are marked the most widespread type of wearable technologies. Considering this, present work has been carried out…

Everyone needs fast response or output against its request or need. Therefore, technologies are used to make the processing fast and accurate according to our needs. But in some situations, still we need to do more. Especially, when we need to process a massive or huge crowd of people in limited time frame such as…

The emergence of new digital payment technologies has introduced both opportunities and challenges across all industries. This research aims to examine the significant factors that influence the adoption of new e-payment technologies, specifically in smart cities, as in Dubai. A comprehensive theoretical framework based on several previous studies included the following factors; Perceived Usefulness, Perceived…

The article presents some results of the research of the LoRa module. These modules can be the basis of possible IoT technologies are implementing, providing enough good range of receiving and transmitting messages. The SX1276 transceiver has been testing to determine the signal loss in the propagation channel. These experiments took in a highly-populated Kyiv…

This paper aims to understand the impact of eLearning capabilities on organizational performance. It also addresses the obstacles of organizational learning using eLearning methods and highlighting some emerging trends and technologies that will impact the eLearning experience in organizations. It examines a brief history of knowledge management and how it is related to learning, organizational…

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).…

Internet of Things (IoT) is changing the world through a new wave of revolution for communications technologies that are no more limited to the human being. One of the main challenges that result from the exponential spread of IoT technology is the difference in the traffic characteristics between classical human communications and advanced things communications.…

The Blockchain technologies enable decentralized networking consisting of large number of nodes. To determine the shared states and failures of all nodes in a fully distributed peer-to-peer system, the appropriate consensus algorithm needs to be selected for each Internet of Things system. In this paper, a novel hierarchical voting-based byzantine fault tolerance (HBFT) consensus algorithm…

Road safety has become an object of research and many research institutes have invested in this field because a lot of people die and many others are injured every year due to road accidents. The deployment of wireless communication technologies for vehicular networks can considerably improve road safety. It can enable new services such as…

The demand on livestock as a source of protein is increasing with the dramatic increase of world population which approaches 8 billion. As a result, the monitoring of the performance of livestock breeding is becoming essential. The technique which could increase livestock production and improve the efficiency of operation is digitalization of livestock management .…

Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast (ADS-B) is the future of aviation. It is a vast system that provides situational awareness for the aviator and regulator at a very low cost and does so with the aid of multiple disparate systems working closely together and communicating with one another. ADS-B uses the Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS/ GPS)…

The Internet of Things (IoT) application has been experiencing increasingly progressive demand, especially for embedded devices (ED). However, the ED has limited capabilities, low power consumption resources, and low bandwidth in connecting to the Internet by using Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Therefore, the WSNs form creates a necessity for new technologies and protocols for the…

The emergence of the COVID-19 pandemic earlier this year destabilised the operations in the education sector, particularly in institutions of higher learning. Most of these institutions are now expected to teach online, assess their students using non-venue examinations and offer remote laboratory practical and experiments. However, many of these institutions were not prepared for such…

The 5G, as a new source of telecommunication infrastructure technology, has attracted many stakeholders to promote the progress of its standards and the development of its technology industry. The 5G reinforces new technologies and delivers vehicles for everything services (V2X) to drivers and passengers. It also offers several advantages. On the other hand, due to…

Computer vision is a technique used for processing images and videos which are increasingly becoming ubiquitous day by day. Technologies developed are revolving around human needs and demands high computational power as volume of data increases. The extraction of the necessary information for processing, that is independent of various scene complexity is a challenging task.…

Portuguese organizations that have invoicing software, certified by the Tax and Customs Authority, need to comply with technical requirements that involve business continuity and disaster recovery. The recent tax legislative changes created conditions for the dematerialization of documents, allowing waiving invoice printing, encouraging the adoption of an electronic invoicing and document archiving system. The pandemic…
