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…

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is an imaging device mounted on a moving platform. Its ability to identify a weak target from a nearby strong one depends upon the peak side lobe ratio (PSLR). This paper is intended to ameliorate such important ratio through the use of windowing of the transmitted pulse and studying the noise…

The recent use of rotary-wing unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has gained significant interest and continuously been implemented since they are used across the world for civilian, commercial, as well as military applications. The drawback of UAVs is the fight-time due to the limited battery capacity. Therefore, energy harvesting (EH), captured energy from the ambient environment…

The greenhouse climate system is very hard to manipulate because the variables involved are closely correlated. This study aims to enhance the regulation performance of greenhouse climate system based on adaptive neural-fuzzy inference system (ANFIS). The ANFIS is a hybrid technique that incorporates the fuzzy logic theory and artificial neural network algorithms. The employed control…

Lean ERP system is considered among the new trends of systems in the manufacturing sector, it has become one of the most widely adopted systems, thanks to its various benefits such as: a centralized database which gathers all the data of the enterprise in a single database which is accessible to all the departments, reduction…

Recently, opportunistic networks are considered as one of the most attractive developments of ad hoc mobile networks (MANETs) that have emerged thanks to the development of intelligent devices. Due to the mobility-related instability of the paths between nodes and due to the limited buffer and energy resources, the ultimate objective of routing protocols in opportunistic…

In this paper an offline motion-planning algorithm is presented for robotic manipulators. In this method to solve the path-planning task, the Transition-based Rapidly-exploring Random Tree (T-RRT) algorithm was applied, that requires a cost-function over the search space. The goal of this cost-function is to keep distance between the actual position and configurations that cause collisions.…

The safety management system is recognized by safety leading and lagging indicators, and their correlation with injury rates. The background on this specific subject is vague in definition, labelling, and indicators measurement. The comparativeness between leading and lagging indicators have been introduced in the constructing safety performance projects evaluation. Safety performance leading indicators are the…

Nowadays the collaboration of organizations, systems or services becomes more and more answered in practice. Indeed, organizations try to expand their service, other to satisfy the needs of their customers. Thus, the need to work collaboratively with other partners whether internally or externally becomes trivial. However, process modeling in a collaborative environment becomes heavy because…

Content Based Image Retrieval (CBIR) for remote sensing image data is a tedious process due to high resolution and complexity of image interpretation. Development of feature extraction technique is a major portion to represent the image content in an optimal way. In this paper, we propose a feature descriptor which combines the color coherent pixel…

In more recent times, researchers have turned their attention to link prediction and the role link inference can play in better understanding the evolutionary nature of social networking sites. The objective of this paper is to present an in-depth review, analysis, and discussion of the cutting-edge link prediction methods that can be applied to better…

Through the Electrical Discharge Machining, the temperature is very high, which can lead to the material phase’s transformation and affects material properties, which can lead to failure of the products in the industry. This study aims to investigate the effect of a new input parameter (pulse cycle time Tc), with other parameters on the EDM…

Student dissatisfaction is of the utmost importance when it comes to establishing a process of continuous improvement in a University. Currently, at the National Technological University of Lima Sur (UNTELS) there is no information regarding the levels of student dissatisfaction with the services offered by UNTELS. In this context, the purpose of this research project…

This article presents an analysis on the existing correlation of the specific and global performance of teachers in UNTELS engineering schools, whose data collection was carried out during the development of the first academic semester of the year 2019, using the Survey technique; which presents indicators classified in two dimensions: “Specific Dimension of Teaching Performance”…

The Citrix NetScaler CPX, is one of the many Application Delivery Controllers (ADCs), which is used mainly for load balancing between the application servers in a datacenter network. ADCs are typically placed in the demilitarized zone in an organization’s network, handling the connectivity of the external clients to the organization’s servers. While performing load balancing…

It is essential to engage the students by creating new, affordable robotics at a fraction of the cost. This study presents the design and simulation of a six-axis robot manipulator specifically made for education and training. The…

Fingerprint data is really protected by cancelable fingerprint template because it can be revoked when compromise and a new one can be reissued. We develop a touchless cancelable fingerprint template whose algorithm was published in our previous work. We implement here the algorithm and conducted several tests on several databases to confirm the stability of…

Fatigue is broadly divided into two types depending on the content of a task: physical fatigue and mental fatigue. Mental fatigue is associated with human error. It is thus important to search for indicators that can easily evaluate mental fatigue. The aim of this study is to construct a system that can evaluate mental fatigue…
