In recent years, several projects which are supported by information and communications technologies (ICT) have been developed in the agricultural domain to promote more precise agricultural activities. These projects account for different kinds of key ICT terms such as internet of things (IoT), wireless sensors networks (WSN), cloud computing (CC). These projects are used for…

The purpose of this research is to build an android based pathfinding adventure game where user gets information about Indonesian culture, especially the traditional houses including the folk songs and the traditional weapons in certain areas. The method used is by questionnaires, interviews, observation, and literature study. This application also implements the A* algorithm to…

The high flow of vessel traffic affects the difficulty of monitoring vessel in the middle of the sea because of limited human visibility, occurrence of vessel accidents at the sea and other illegal activities that illustrate abnormal vessel behavior such as oil bunkering, piracy, illegal fishing and other crimes that will continue and will certainly…

Currently, there is a growing interest for applying gamification in e-learning due to innovations in technologies and pedagogies. However, motivation and engagement related problems can arise when the gamification elements are not personalized to match the individual’s needs. Therefore, this research proposes a Hybrid Learning Model that combines both Gamification and Personality Traits to increase…

The digital factory is a concept signing a new era for industry, the so-called Industry 4.0, in which ordinary production systems like manufacturing plants, machineries and utilities are being equipped with diagnostic and sensitive instrumentation to be connected to digital shared networks. This data-sharing, trough the big data management techniques, is a fully integrated base…

This work describes a case study carried out in an automotive company. The main objective was to increase the productivity of the last workstation of an assembly line by implementing an AGV System to transport finished goods to the warehouse. A comprehensive analysis of Value Added and Non-Value Added activities were performed to understand the…

In the present article, we introduce a foveation-based optimized embedded and its optimized version image coders thereafter called VOEFIC/MOEFIC and its related foveation wavelet visible difference predictor FWVDP coding quality metric. It advances a visually advanced foveal weighting mask that regulates the wavelet-based image spectrum before its encoding by the SPIHT encoder. It intends to…

A Software Defined Network (SDN) architecture is characterized by decoupling the data plane and control plane. This feature enables the establishment of a programmable environ- ment in which the control plane acts under the data plane, managing and configuring the network over a standard protocol, such as OpenFlow. Although there are numerous benefits to the…

Electrostatic suspension systems have great potential applications in contactless transportation objects since they allow many different materials to be suspended. The electrostatic suspension will be widely applied in practice if the system cost is inexpensive. This paper presents an electrostatic suspension system controlled by using pulse width modulation (PWM). The use of PWM in electrostatic…

This paper studies and compares the effectiveness of four different features and their combinations on the recognition accuracy of handwritten Bangla characters. The longest run, chain code histogram, shadow, and Gabor filter-based features and their eleven (11) combinations were tested on a standard Bangla database of 15; 000 basic handwritten characters to compare their recognition…

This paper presents hybrid solar thermal/electricity automated oven. The work compares sliding mode control (SMC) to traditional PID control of the oven system using MATLAB/Simulink 2014b model. SMC control method shows faster rise and settling time. The control technique has been designed to automate change of temperature level of the oven by accepting multiple reference…

Breast cancer has an important incidence in women mortality worldwide. Currently, mam- mography is considered the gold standard for breast abnormalities screening examinations, since it aids in the early detection and diagnosis of the illness. However, both identification of mass lesions and its malignancy classification is a challenging problem for artificial intelligence. In this work,…

One of the creative industries with rapid growth is the airbrush industry. Airbrush art, especially realist, is identical to the field of automotive engineering in the combination of art and technology. The research is directed to prove how the difficult realist airbrush competency can be achieved by Vocational High School (VHS) students in a short…

Recurrent Neural Networks has been widely used by researchers in the domain of weather prediction. Weather Prediction is forecasting the atmosphere for the future. In this proposed paper, Deep LSTM networks has been implemented which is the variant of RNNs having additional memory block and gates making them capable of remembering long term dependencies. Fifteen…

It was analyzed certain information about cyberattacks in Latin America and methods to counteract the aggressions that affect services, data and infrastructure. The problem is the cyberattack on information networks where there is interdependence between processes, people and devices within public organizations with the negative consequence of denial of services. The objective is to propose…

This article deals with the issue of parking houses, storage mechanisms and how to control them. A laboratory model of a multi-storey underground automatic parking house was designed and created for this purpose, which is used to test a new innovative way of storing cars and specialized approaches to driving actuators. The model is based…

Medical images are transmitted via the Internet or the hospital intranet which include many important information about the patient’s personal information. Medical image encryption is a technology that can effectively protect the information contained in these medical images. In this paper, we give a secure and trusty Combined Cellular Automata (CoCA) based medical image encryption…

Wireless Body Area Network (WBAN) aims to monitor patient’s health remotely, by using mini medical sensors that are attached on the human body to collect important data via the wireless network. However, this type of communication is very vulnerable to various types of attacks, poses serious problems to the individual’s life who wears the nodes.…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in 2019 International Conference on Automation, Computational and Technology Management (ICACTM). A micro-strip patch in-body designed antenna is constructed on pacemaker to monitor and control the pacemaker wirelessly. The antenna is intended for ISM (Industrial, Scientific, and Medical) band (2.4 GHz to 2.48 GHz). A perfect…

Recent years have seen a continued pattern of development in the cloud computing field. Numerous approaches to maximize file transfer capacity are still completely standing for use on cloud computing storage; however, they do not maximize the advantage of data migration scalability and elasticity in cloud storage. One potential problem is that elasticity takes time;…

The paper discusses the features of the implementation and functioning of digital self-timed circuits. They have a naturally high tolerance to short-term single soft errors caused by various factors, such as nuclear particles, radiation, and others. Combinational self-timed circuits using dual-rail coding of signals are naturally immune to 91% of typical soft errors classified in…

Technological developments in the Internet and communications have created a vastly complex and dynamic context with diverse heterogeneous networks and fast growth of mobile devices and multimedia.
