Nigerian power utility companies particularly the distribution and generation aspects were recently in the process of national power reform converted from public to private service by privatization. Prior to these development, power utility companies’ performance is low due to poor operational style that leads to inadequate revenue generation. Thus, the task before the privatized companies…

Harmonic distortion is a problem that can be caused by the use of power electronic devices. The effect of harmonics has an impact on changes in the input voltage source waveform which is referred to as wave defects. This incident has an impact on electronic faults and overheating of the power transformer coil as a…

Machine learning classifiers provide many promising solutions for data classification in different disciplines. However, data classification at run time is still a very challenging task for real-time applications. Acceleration of machine-learning hardware solutions is needed to meet the requirements of real-time applications. This paper proposes a new implementation of a machine learning classifier on Field…

The water heating with parabolic trough solar collectors (PTC) is a very widespread and at the same time quite promising solar technology. However, PTC presents several problems in terms of the profitability of water heating. For this reason, our study of water heating with PTC collectors consists of two main parts. In the first part,…

Vehicle systems are controlled by embedded electronic devices called electronic control units (ECUs). These ECUs are connected together with network protocols. The Controller Area Network (CAN) protocol is widely implemented due to its high fault tolerance. However, the CAN is a serial broadcast bus, and it has no protection against security threats. In this paper,…

This study utilized aerial panoramic photography and 3D virtual reality to demonstrate the environmental changing issues. Environmental problems have occurred in the surroundings for a long time, but the public has gradually become numb. The wide view through aerial photography helps to show the difference. The proposed self-assembled drone equipped with an antishock bracket containing…

The Programmable Logic Controller (PLC) is an important component for industrial automatic engineering operation. Hence, the need to comprehend its basis of operation becomes an inevitable task. Some of the problems is industrial PLC is an expensive, pre-built hardware kit, acquisition of programming software and its requisite programming competence is a challenge. Thus, this paper…

At present, in the era of digitization the organizations need Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems to have the ability adapt to changes with rapid response in order to increase the competitive advantage. The fact, many companies have failed to implement ERP which is proven to be not go live on time, so that the implementation…

Vectorization is extracting data from strings through Natural Language Processing by using different approaches; one of the best approaches used in vectorization is word2vec. To make the vectorized data secure, we must apply a security method, which will be CryptDB. The paper is analyzing the survey, which is created to interview security engineers through the…

The times have made drastic changes in the field of technology, these changes have penetrated into various aspects, one of which is the game. Starting from the tactics of war in the real world that produces the game theory, then adopted in the form of games that exist today. Starting from without visuals to extraordinary…

Augmented Reality applications are gaining popularity while maintaining novelty. Many industries are utilizing the user interface type, and use cases are becoming repeat patterns of problem solutions. Despite this rising popularity, quality has not matured nor has the technology become mainstream. Novelty must be approached as risk, and risk must be evaluated for and tested…

Recently, digital image forgery detection is an emergent and important area of image processing. Digital image plays a vital role in providing evidence for any unusual incident. However, the image forgery my hide evidence and prevents the detection of such criminal cases due to advancement in image processing and availability of sophisticated software tamper of…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in 2019 Third World Conference on Smart Trends in Systems Security and Sustainability (WorldS4). Author describes two new methods: reactive protection method (without delay after detecting an attack), which consists in virtualizing the execution environment of supercomputers processes if the calculated state descriptor falls into the…

Blockchain is a new generation technology that allows the central control mechanism or trusted authority to be removed, spreading the encrypted data across all participants in the network in a distributed database structure instead of central trust. The Smart Contract structure, which defines the rules and flow that allow the things we value to operate…

In recent years, cyber security has been received interest from several research communities with respect to Intrusion Detection System (IDS). Cyber security is “a fast-growing field demanding a great deal of attention because of remarkable progresses in social networks, cloud and web technologies, online banking, mobile environment, smart grid, etc.” An IDS is a software…

Auditors now can no longer rely on the old-fashioned way of auditing manually. More and more jobs, increasingly complex work environment, the demands of the times, accuracy and speed of work require auditors inevitably must adopt technology. This research began with our success as academics in the audit family. Related to Indonesia, a large country…

In the Moroccan seismic code, infill walls are considered as secondary elements and their lateral strength and stiffness are neglected in the design when considering horizontal seismic loads. In this article we propose to investigate the effect of infill on the seismic performance of the buildings. A 6-stories reinforced concrete frame building is investigated. The…

As many digital documents are required in various environments, paper documents are digitized by scanner, fax, digital camera and specific software. In the case of a scanned document, we need to check whether the document is right sided or upside down because the orientation of the scanned document is determined by the orientation in which…

All trucks heading into the paper mill MONDI, Slovakia, have to pass an automatic security check. It controls if storage of its wood load meets all standards of safety. Each truck is scanned by a group of 2D scanners. After that the inspection of timber load is done by a software with use of the…

In the software engineering research, several works focus on advantages of multi-modeling, which facilitate modeling a system by separating of concerns. The Model Driven Engineering approach relies on model to design software artefacts during the software development lifecycle. Handling such models involves describing some model management operators like ‘ composition ‘. That is an operation…

The need for air conditioning in rural areas where there is no source of electricity, leads to look for alternative solutions.
