Cloud computing is a technical “as-a-service” usage model utilizing virtualization. Virtual machines are the core of cloud computing that runs as independent machine grouped into different networks within the hypervisor. Practically done by deployment of clouds computing hosts enterprise servers in virtual machines on an array of high-end servers. Managing cloud resources has to do…

Network security challenges due to nearly limitless internet connectivity, platform limitations, ubiquitous nodal mobility and huge data transactions is burgeoning by the day and the need for transcend Internet of Things (IoT) based cloud security authentication protocols is on an exponential rise. Even though many secure classic layered security mechanisms are available for implementation, they…

Robotic catching of thrown objects is one of the common robotic tasks, which is explored in a number of papers. This task includes subtask of tracking and forecasting the trajectory of the thrown object. Here we propose an algorithm for estimating future trajectory based on video signal from two cameras. Most of existing implementations use…

Big data can be considered to be at the forefront of the present and future research activities. The volume of data needing to be processed is growing dramatically in both velocity and variety. In response, many big data technologies have emerged to tackle the challenges of collecting, processing and storing such large-scale datasets. High-performance computing…

A mobile retail app is a growing innovation in a retailing setting and there is an argument on the prominent status of a mobile application in contrast with a mobile website and web applications. The study used quantitative data to run multiple regression analysis with keen attention to linear regression assumption and compare four models…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in the 19th International Conference on Computer Supported Education and Information Technology. This paper identifies motivational factors that ensure the initiation and effective implementation of mathematical activity. These factors are in subordination to each other, forming a hierarchical dependence. At the heart of this hierarchy is…

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a new concept that has a great appeal for researchers, businesses and the ordinary tech user. It presents new possibilities of connection between devices and people and it stimulates our need and desire to interact, to exchange ideas and to communicate with the surrounding environment. This paper briefly explores…

Automatic speech emotion recognition (SER) techniques based on acoustic analysis show high confusion between certain emotional categories. This study used an indirect approach to provide insights into the amplitude-frequency characteristics of different emotions in order to support the development of future, more efficiently differentiating SER methods. The analysis was carried out by transforming short 1-second…

Internet of things (IoT) is an innovative technology subject to all kind of imaginary and science fictional solutions. Dreams and speculations are still possible about it. A technology combining real life objects and virtual life (Internet) is indeed a fertile pitch of fantasy and original ideas. However, IoT has in practice to face several challenges…

The contemporary electrical power systems (EPS) impose increased requirements for the functionality of the protection systems. The necessity of improved EPS stability is in some extent resulting of the increased integration of renewable sources of electrical energy. The future grid development gives perspective for connection of more converter based generations. The power electronic schemes and…

This paper critically evaluates the operational perspective of Virtual Power Plants (VPP) in Germany by analyzing key factors to replace conventional power plants in the future power system. Therefore, its necessity for the secure operation as well as the technical and economic benefits for the German power system are pointed out. The single sections describe…

The background of the article lies in South Eastern Finland, in Lappeenranta, where an active University campus has attracted a group of ICT startups as well as SME’s in the field to collaboration. The novel education approach also has another remarkable role as a developer and source of innovation. An experimental development ecosystem (EDE), where…

Water quality assessment and prediction is a more and more important issue. Traditional ways either take lots of time or they can only do assessments. In this research, by applying machine learning algorithm to a long period time of water attributes’ data; we can generate a decision tree so that it can predict the future…

The present article explains the modeling of a Gas Turbine system; the mathematical modeling is based on fluid mechanics applying the principal energy laws such as Euler’s Law, Newton’s second Law and the first thermodynamic law to obtain the equations for mass, momentum and energy conservation; expressed as the continuity equation, the Navier-Stokes equation and…

This work is an extension of the Proceedings of the International Conference on Industrial Engineering, Management Science and Applications, which presented some of the phases of Reengineering applied to Bamboo Panel Company; the results were Strategic planning, Systemic Diagnosis and Performance Indicators through the Balanced Scorecard. Now, the main purpose of this article is to…

A3S(Arwin-Adang-Aciek-Sembiring) is a method of information fusion at a single observation and OMA3S(Observation Multi-time A3S) is a method of information fusion for time-series data. This paper proposes OMA3S-based Cognitive Artificial-Intelligence method for interpreting Transformer Condition, which is calculated based on maintenance data from Indonesia National Electric Company (PLN). First, the proposed method is tested using…

This paper presents the modeling and simulation of the voltage unbalance in the power supply system of an AC electrified railway. The operating voltage at the traction substation is obtained by MATLAB/SIMULINK program and the voltage unbalance is evaluated by considering the voltage unbalance factor (VUF). Suvarnabhumi Airport Rail Link (ARL), in Bangkok, Thailand, is…

This paper describes the concept and configuration of a novel automated safety vehicle stop system, and a future prospect of the study. Intrinsic sudden death may cause traffic accident since such accidents sometimes involve not only the driver but also other traffic users such as passengers and pedestrians. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is considered as a…

The paper describes the results of the system analysis of various options of electric inverter topologies for the use in the traction drive of an electrical helicopter. The paper explains the optimal choice, in terms of the design requirements and future operational conditions, and the type and topology of the electric inverter to supply the…

An effective communication among the road users is crucial for safety precautions. Nowadays, a light emitting diode (LED) are commonly installed on a motor vehicle as the lighting system. The LED lights are more reliable and flexible in terms of the design and power adjustments. To further utilize the LED applications in a vehicular system,…

Vehicular ad-hoc networks (VANETs) are still more challenging to overcome even if they have been widely studied during the last decades. The routing mechanism is the essentially relevant issue in this field. Indeed, it must strictly to be adapted to specific and unique characteristics such as the high mobility of the vehicles, the dynamic nature…

In the aim to manage and retrieve the organizational knowledge, in the last years numerous proposals of models and tools for knowledge management and knowledge representation have arisen. However, most of them store knowledge in a non-structured or semi-structured way, hindering the semantic and automatic processing of this knowledge. In this paper we present a…

Hasty software development can produce immediate implementations with source code unnecessarily complex and hardly readable. These small kinds of software decay generate a technical debt that could be big enough to seriously affect future maintenance activities. This work presents an analysis technique for identifying architectural technical debt related to non-uniformity of naming patterns; the technique…
