Vehicles are rollover when steering at high speed, this phenomenon is limited by increasing the anti-roll moment of the suspension system. This research focuses on analyzing and establishing the dynamic model of vehicle when steering and describes the dependence of the vehicle body’s roll angle on other factors. Research has shown that when equipped a…

In this study, we develop the author’s approach, based on the principles of modeling of the International Flows Equilibrium Exchange Rate (IFEER). As a result, a new model is built, depending on the main macroeconomic factors in the medium term. The model presents a wide system of basic factors, but many of the intermediate factors…

Currently, one of the challenges of educational institutions is drop-out student issues. Several factors have been found and determined potentially capable to stimulate dropouts. Many researchers have been applied data mining methods to analyze, predict dropout students and also optimize finding dropout variables in advance. The main objective of this study is to find the…

The definition of equipment and components of physical plants is a necessary step towards the development of simulation, control, and supervisory applications for the petrochemical industry. Often it happens that the same plant/equipment is (re)modeled on each application, causing a waste-oftime on repetitive (re)design, besides introducing potential inconsistencies between the models. Moreover, even though each…

This article is addressed to show the results of hybrid dynamical modeling in the form of PWA (piecewise-affine) and equivalent MLD (mixed-logical dynamical) model for multi-restricted areas avoidance of an autonomous system. It is a problem of determining the optimal moving trajectory from plant’s initial position to some desired position while avoiding some restricted areas…

Information Systems are a combination of information technology and activities of people who use these technologies to support operations, management, data, and technology. Based on Indonesian Minister of Home Affairs Decree No. 17 of 2000, the Regional Office of the Ministry of Law and Human Rights of West Sulawesi implements the Employee Management Information System…

The IEEE 802.11n wireless local-area network (WLAN) has been extensively deployed around the world due to the flexibility, lower cost, and the high-speed data transmission capability at 2.4 GHz ISM band. However, in the WLAN deployment, one key challenge is to optimize the channel assignment of access-points (APs) under the small number of partially overlapping…

This study examined the performance of two proposed permutation methods for Chow test analysis and the Milek permutation method for testing structural break in linear models. The proposed permutation methods are: (1) permute object of dependent variable and (2) permute object of the predicted dependent variable. Simulation from gamma distribution and standard normal distribution were…

The main problem of the distribution of freight in archipelago countries such as Indonesia is how to ensure that the outlying and outermost islands are served optimally, with low freight costs and optimal frequency of vessel stops at ports. There are three types of vessels that are subsidized and have the duty of public service…

Digitization is viewed as the capability to utilize digital technologies for generating processing, sharing and transacting information. Studies show that digitization has now become ubiquitous. In almost all the sectors, we routinely interact with digital technologies. As a result, the impact of digitization is being observed in such sectors. For instance, the positive impact of…

The main importance of solar photovoltaic energies research is to meet the many environmental demands of the energy challenge, to maximize power and to reduce the costs of photovoltaic (PV) systems to reply the energy needs of population. In the present research work, the first objective is to study the performance and the output energy…

Location-based service has been widely used in modern life. It brings a lot of convenience to our lives. Improving the accuracy of location prediction can provide better location- based service. We propose a location prediction method based on the variable-order Markov model with time feature and user’s spatio-temporal rule. First, the user’s trajectory data needs…

In the last years, industrial company began to understand the central role that plays sustainable supplier selection (SSS) process for obtaining a sustainable supply chain (SSC). This paper proposes a new multi-criterion decision-making (MCDM) model for managers, which makes it possible to select the best suppliers who respect the sustainable development (SD) concept for a…

Building massively parallel applications has become increasingly important with coming Exascale related technologies. For building these applications, a combination of programming models is needed to increase the system’s parallelism. One of these combinations is the dual-programming model (MPI+X) which has many structures that increase parallelism in heterogeneous systems that include CPUs and GPUs. MPI +…

The approach to the construction of promising cognitive monitoring systems is considered. Based on the analysis of known solutions, the problem of automatic synthesis of computational models of cognitive monitoring is posed. In the synthesis of models, it is proposed to reduce them to relatively finite operational automata. An example of a synthesized model of…

In this paper, an analytical modeling is proposed to compute the static and dynamic characteristics of linear variable reluctance motors with taking account of the saturation and the non-linearity of the magnetic circuit. The proposed model is based on the Fourier series expression of the phase flux in which the variation of the linkage flux…

Cloud computing is an exceptional paradigm, which is facilitating the developments and utilization of resources over the internet. Fog computing operates at the edge of the network saving bandwidth, by not sending all information to the cloud, while edge computing does processing of data at the edge of the cloud. Edge computing reduces the distance…

A method for coupling of local and global fields related to currents, voltages and magnetic fields in magnetodynamic problems is developed in the frame of the finite subproblem finite element method. The method allows to correct the errors arising from thin conducting regions, that replace volume thin regions by surfaces but neglect border effects in…

Climatic changes have a significant impact on many real life processes. Climacteric position of Albania makes precipitations and water inflows in HPP the main variables influencing the amount of electric energy produced in the country. Taking into account their volatility it has considerably increased the need of using hybrid models to improve the quality of…

Low contrast images degrade the performance of image processing system. To solve the issue, plenty of image enhancement methods have been proposed. But the methods work properly on the fixed environment or specific images. The methods dependent on fixed image conditions cannot perform image enhancement properly and perspective of smart device users, algorithms including iterative…

This paper investigates the methods of optimal design construction for step-stress accelerated life testing (ALT) when a Cox’s hazards model is adopted with either a linear or a quadratic baseline hazard function. We discuss multiple step-stress plans for time-censored ALT experiments. The maximum likelihood method is utilized for estimating the model parameters. The information matrices…

Many existing system modeling techniques based on statistical modeling, data mining and machine learning have a shortcoming of building variable relations for the full ranges of variable values using one model, although certain variable relations may hold for only some but not all variable values. This shortcoming is overcome by the Partial-Value Association Discovery (PVAD)…
