Modern power systems are topologically and structurally complicated due to their complex interconnections. Consequently, the complexity of the dynamic stability assessment be-comes more tedious, most especially, when considering a power electronics-based power system operating under faulty conditions. This paper, therefore suggests an alternative approach of Network Structural-Based Technique (NSBT) for the analysis and enhancement of…

Platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, and others are now privileged ways to disseminate all kinds of information. Indeed, communicating through social media without revealing the real identity has emerged an ideal atmosphere for…

E-learning, among the most prominent modes of learning, offers learners the opportunity to attend online courses. To improve the quality of online learning, social learning through social networks promotes interaction and collaboration among learners. As part of the learning process management in these environments, the implementation of recommendation systems facilitates the provision of content adapted…

Soil moisture is one of the most important variables to monitor in agriculture. Its analysis gives insights about strategies to utilize better a particular area regarding its use, i.e., pasture for cows (or similar), production forests, or even to answer what crops should be planted. The vertical structure of the soil moisture plays an important…

In this paper, one of the “problem zones” in mathematics concerned with the surface area of three-dimensional bodies is presented by computer and mathematical modeling with synergetic effects using intelligent system support. The problems of personal self-organization and technological stages of student’s research activity in the process of modern achievements in science adaptation in teaching…

Internet Protocol version 6 is being adopted on slow pace and it is taking a long time. This paper intends to discuss the transition process between IPv4 and IPv6 and the major obstacles that prevent deploying IPv6 worldwide. It presents the IPv4 exhaustion reports results and where are the IPv4 address pool. Then it presents…

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…

To evaluate and compare methods in computer vision, scientists must use a benchmark dataset and unified sets of measurements. The UCI-EGO dataset is a standard benchmark dataset for evaluating Hand Pose Estimation (HPE) on depth images. To build robotic arms that perform complex operations such as human hands, the poses of the human hand need…

The demand on livestock as a source of protein is increasing with the dramatic increase of world population which approaches 8 billion. As a result, the monitoring of the performance of livestock breeding is becoming essential. The technique which could increase livestock production and improve the efficiency of operation is digitalization of livestock management .…

IoT integrates and connects intelligent devices or objects with varied architectures and resources. The number of IoT devices is growing exponentially. Due to the massive wave of IoT objects, their diversity and heterogeneity among their architectures, the existing communication protocols for wireless networks become ineffective in the context of IoT. Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) has…

Biological networks represent biological systems, and various graph analysis algorithms have been applied to solve various real-world problems. Network motif analysis, as one of network analyses, is detecting frequently and uniquely over-occurring subgraph patterns in a network. The detection process requires high computational resources, and various tools have been developed to provide efficient solutions. However,…

Traditional networks have difficulty in meeting the technological developments and the continuous increase in the size of data to be processed. Software-Defined Network (SDN) approach has emerged as an alternative to traditional networks. SDN separates the control and data planes from each other and manages the network over the control plane with flexibility and cost…

Advances in the world of communications and information technology, as well as the urgent necessity to monitor particular areas and regions, have led to a considerable and influential development in the world of wireless sensor nodes. As they are small, low-cost multi-purpose nodes with limited energy and capabilities. The most important points that deserve research…

The Internet of Things (IoT) application has been experiencing increasingly progressive demand, especially for embedded devices (ED). However, the ED has limited capabilities, low power consumption resources, and low bandwidth in connecting to the Internet by using Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). Therefore, the WSNs form creates a necessity for new technologies and protocols for the…

The filter bank multi-carrier (FBMC) technique is being considered as the major candidates for the 5G schemes. The orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) technique is used in 4G but it has drawbacks such as higher Out-of-Band (OOB) power reduction, and higher peak to average power ratio (PAPR). OFDM uses cyclic prefix (CP) extension to overcome…

The world is facing an unprecedented virus outbreak, COVID-19, hitting more than 200 countries. Governments have been striving to prevent the spread of the virus through the lockdown. During the strict lockdown in Jordan, people needed to stay home, and they used available social networks to keep updated on COVID-19, with Facebook, the most popular…

This paper describes methods of eliminating Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV) non-destructively, using Electronic Warfare Methods. The aim is to introduce certain methods of UAV detection and elimination in a complex environment and terrain, e.g., in an urban and battlefield environment, that will result in finding the control device position and the UAV itself. Neural networks,…

In order to balance the power in intelligent distribution networks (Smart Grid or Microgrid), it is proposed to organize a «multi operated virtual power plant».
