Worldwide, the epidemiological situation is constantly changing and with the exponential increase in the number of confirmed coronavirus cases, the number of health care workers has decreased significantly and this is due to the direct and daily contact of patients. One of the major challenges of the last few months is to prevent the spread…

In the phosphate industry, sulfuric acid is a key compound in phosphoric acid and fertilizer production. Industrially, the sulfuric acid H2SO4 is made generally in a sequence of three main steps: burning liquid sulfur with air, catalytic oxidation of sulfur dioxide SO2 to sulfur trioxide SO3, and formation of H2SO4 by the reaction of H2O…

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…

Social media attracts a lot of users around the world. Many reasons drive people to use social media sites such as expressing opinions and ideas, displaying their diaries and sharing them with others, social communication with family and friends and building new social relationships, learning and sharing knowledge. Written text is one of the most…

The article proposes an approach to evaluate human-computer interaction in the collective decision-making model. It is believed that all team members interact with each other through a distributed information system. The approach involves considering, when modelling, the personality characteristics of perception, each member of the team as a set of cognitive styles. Within the scope…

NFC (Near Field Communication) is a contactless communication technology based on a radio frequency (RF) field using a base frequency of 13.56 MHz. NFC technology is perfectly designed to exchange data between two devices via simple touch gestures. RFID is the process of identifying an object directly by radio frequency. There are two important components…

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.…

Rescuers escorted search dogs into the disaster area, using their unique sense of smell to find the injured. First, researchers summarize the design requirements in the search process from interviews with rescuers, and construct a conceptual prototype to confirm the interaction mode between the user and the dog. User central design invited people melt into…

The article describes the concept and architecture of a decentralized control system for a solid-state voltage regulator (SSVR). The SSVR is a universal device for controlling the mode and operation parameters of medium voltage electrical networks. SSVR manage the amount of current in line using the vector voltage control method. The SSVR control system consists…

Data aggregation, gathering and gossiping are all vital communication tasks in wireless sensor networks (WSNs). When all networking devices are always active, scheduling algorithms for these communication tasks have been extensively investigated under both the protocol and physical interference models. However, wireless devices usually switch between the sleep state and the active state for the…

The purpose of the study was to describe the experiences of teachers in the distance teaching-learning process in early childhood education during the covid-19 pandemic. The methodology used was qualitative descriptive. Interviews were conducted with thirteen teachers from four state educational institutions at the infant level in Lima city through the virtual platform. As a…

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…

In this study, we study on the downlink indoor coverage performance of unmanned air vehicle (UAV) base stations. We consider a probabilistic expression for air-to-ground (ATG) path loss, and a deterministic one for additional indoor losses in order to provide a practical model. One of our important assumptions is that the UAV base station operates…

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a technology that enables communication between everyday life using different sensor actuators that work together to identify, capture, and distribute critical data from the planet. Massive machines and devices are therefore linked and communicate with them. The use of resources in this area presents new challenges for this technology.…

Virtual reality is a technology that literally allows constructing of a new reality for its users. VR has huge potential, it is able to change social life, communications, and the academic sphere, but VR may also be applied by criminals.
