The XBRL taxonomy has been proven to be able to restore various forms of redundancies and ambiguities in making financial reports from financial service institutions. However, the nature of XBRL which is oriented towards documents and based on XML makes the XBRL taxonomy difficult to use because the information cannot be directly read by ordinary…

The technological advance as well as needs of human beings made that systems became more and more complex. In contrast, the use and creation of new modelling languages became simple and no more reserved for a handful of language experts. Consequently, many new practices of systems implementation emerged, among them, the use of different domain…

Anomaly detection aims at identification of suspicious items, observations or events by differing from most of the data. Intrusion Detection, Fault Detection, and Fraud Detection are some of the various applications of Anomaly Detection. The Machine learning classifier algorithms used in these applications would greatly affect the overall efficiency. This work is an extension of…

Currently, one of the challenges of educational institutions is drop-out student issues. Several factors have been found and determined potentially capable to stimulate dropouts. Many researchers have been applied data mining methods to analyze, predict dropout students and also optimize finding dropout variables in advance. The main objective of this study is to find the…

The major problem in electric utility is Electrical Theft, which is harmful to electric power suppliers and causes economic loss. Detecting and controlling electrical theft is a challenging task that involves several aspects like economic, social, regional, managerial, political, infrastructural, literacy rate, etc. Numerous methods were proposed formerly for detecting electricity theft. However, the previous…

Music genre classification is an important multimedia research domain, including aspects of music piece representation, distances between genres, and categorization of music databases. The objective of this study was to develop a model for automatic classification of musical genres from audio data by using features from low-level time and frequency domains. These features can highlight…

Cloud computing is an exceptional paradigm, which is facilitating the developments and utilization of resources over the internet. Fog computing operates at the edge of the network saving bandwidth, by not sending all information to the cloud, while edge computing does processing of data at the edge of the cloud. Edge computing reduces the distance…

Optical switching provided the means for the development of Data Centers with high throughput interconnection networks. A significant contribution to the advanced optical Data Centers designs is the Nephele architecture that employs optical data planes, optical Points of Delivery (PoD) switches and Top of Rack (ToR) switches equipped with 10 Gbps connections to the PoDs…

A design of elliptical printed dipole antenna based on neural network approach is presented in this paper for recent WiMAX, Bluetooth, WLAN, LTE, and future 5G applications. The dipole patch is printed on top of substrate which has relative permittivity of 2.2 and 0.787mm of thickness. The elliptical dipole antenna is single band and the…

The latest design approach for Data Centers (DCs) follows the direction of exploiting optical switching to connect Top-of-Rack (ToR) switches that serve thousands of data storing and computing devices. A ToR’s usual function is the Virtual Output Queues (VOQs), which is the prevalent solution for the head-of-line blocking problem of the DC switches. An effective…

The object of this paper is to identify the unknown electrical parameters of solar photovoltaic generators in real time, through the application of a novel suggested hybrid method. The identification process is discussed with details, about the four steps of identification. In this issue, the first step describes the experimental data acquisition work done to…

This paper presents a numerical and experimental study of Radar Cross Section (RCS) of radar targets using Gaussian Beam Summation (GBS) method. The purpose GBS method has several advantages over ray method, mainly on the caustic problem. To evaluate the performance of the chosen method, we started the analysis of the RCS using Gaussian Beam…

Nowadays, text annotation plays an important role within real-time social media mining. Social media analysis provides actionable information to its users in times of natural disasters. This paper presents an approach to a real-time two layer text annotation system for social media stream to the domain of natural disasters. The proposed system annotates raw tweets…

The increased motivation (by service providers) to offer user-centric and seamless communication services – that satisfies users’ quality of experience (QoE), has manifested a myriad of challenges in the field of wireless communication; and given the increased traffic capacity and sudden explosion of cellular devices, communication systems are constantly threatened by performance related issues –…

For the design of Information and Communications Technology (ICT) related products, basic level of technical expertise and simple development tools were enough in the early 1980s. As time goes by, new generation products designed by engineers are always expected to be smaller, lighter and faster, due to the increasing global competition and the application of…

Near Field Communication (NFC) technology is a short range (range about 10cm) standard extended from the core standard Radio Frequency Identifier (RFID). These technologies are a portion of wireless communication technology. Even though NFC technologies benefit in various field, but it’s still exposed to multiple type of privacy attacks and threat as well since the…

Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems are widely used applications to manage resources, communication and data exchange between different departments and modules with the purpose of managing the overall business process of the organization using one integrated software system.
