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…

Microelectromechanical Systems (MEMS) are devices made up of several electrical and mechanical components. They consist of mechanical functions (sensing, thermal, inertial) and electrical functions (switching, decision making) on a single chip made by microfabrication methods. These chips exhibit combined properties of the two functions. The size of system has characteristic dimensions less than 1mm but…

The uncertain nonlinear systems can be modeled with fuzzy differential equations (FDEs) and the solutions of these equations are applied to analyze many engineering problems. However, it is very difficult to obtain solutions of FDEs. In this paper, the solutions of FDEs are approximated by utilizing the fuzzy Sumudu transform (FST) method. Here, the uncertainties…

To advance Java programming educations, we have developed the Java Programming Learning Assistant System (JPLAS) that provides the code writing problem. This problem asks a student to write a source code to satisfy the specification of a given assignment, where the correctness is verified by running test code on JUnit. For a novice student, a…

In today’s information based world, it is increasingly important to safeguard the data owned by any organization, be it intellectual property or personal information. With ever increasing sophistication of malware, it is imperative to come up with an automated and advanced methods of attack vector recognition and isolation. Existing methods are not dynamic enough to…

This paper is an extension of work originally presented in WITS-2017 CONF. We extend our previous works by improving the Risk calculation formula, and risk assessment of an alert cluster instead of every single alert. Also, we presented the initial results of the implementation of our model based on risk assessment and alerts prioritization. The…

In this paper, the performance and reliability of oxide-based Resistive RAM (ReRAM) memory is investigated in a 28nm FDSOI technology versus interconnects resistivity combined with device variability. Indeed, common problems with ReRAM are related to high variability in operating conditions and low yield. At a cell level ReRAMs suffer from variability. At an array level,…

Hereby in this paper, we are going to refer image classification. The main issue in image classification is features extraction and image vector representation. We expose the Bag of Features method used to find image representation. Class prediction accuracy of varying classifiers algorithms is measured on Caltech 101 images. For feature extraction functions we evaluate…

In this paper, we discuss the solvability of the nonlinear parabolic systems associated to the nonlinear parabolic equation: \(\frac{\partial b_{i}(x,u_{i})}{\partial t} -div(a(x,t,u_{i},\nabla u_{i}))- \phi_{i}(x,t,u_{i})) +f_{i}(x,u_{1},u_{2})=0\) where the function  \(b_{i}(x,u_{i})\) verifies some regularity conditions, the term \(\Big(a(x,t,u_{i},\nabla u_{i})\Big)\) is a generalized Leray-Lions operator and \(\phi_{i}\) is a Caratheodory function assumed to be  Continuous on \(u_i\) and satisfy only a…

In this work, we will prove the existence of bounded solutions for the nonlinear elliptic equations \(- div(a(x,u,\nabla u)) = g(x,u,\nabla u) -divf,\) in the setting of the weighted Sobolev space \(W^{1,p}(\Omega,w)\) where \(a\), \(g\) are Caratheodory functions which satisfy some conditions and \(f\) satisfies suitable summability assumption.

This article is devoted to study the existence of solutions for the strongly nonlinear \(p(x)\)-elliptic problem: \(- \Delta_{p(x)} (u) + \alpha_0 |u|^{p(x)-2}u = d(x)\frac{|\nabla u|^{p(x)}}{|u|^{p(x)}+1} + f- div g(x) \quad \text{in } \Omega, \) \(u \in W_0^{1,p(x)}(\Omega), \) Where \(\Omega\) is an open set of \(\mathbb{R}^N\), possibly of infinite measure, we will also give some…

We prove the existence of at least one non-decreasing sequence of positive eigenvalues for the problem, $$\begin{gathered}\left\{ \begin{array}{ll} \Delta_{p(x)}^{2}u-\triangle_{p(x)}u= \lambda |u|^{p(x)-2}u, \ \ \quad in \ \Omega \\ u\in W^{2,p(x)}(\Omega)\cap W_{0}^{1,p(x)}(\Omega),\end{array}\right. \end{gathered}$$ Our analysis mainly relies on variational arguments involving Ljusternik-Schnirelmann theory.

The purpose of this paper is to prove a fixed point theorem for a probabilistic k-contraction restricted to two nonempty closed sets of a probabilistic metric spaces, then we prove that these results can be extended to a collection of finite closed sets.

In this work, we propose a new threshold multi split-row algorithm in order to improve the multi split-row algorithm for LDPC irregular codes decoding. We give a complete description of our algorithm as well as its advantages for the LDPC codes. The simulation results over an additive white gaussian channel show that an improvement in…

The purpose of this conference is to present and analyze di_erent models accounting for the thermal degradation of combustible materials (biomass, coals, mixtures…), when submitted to a controlled temperature ramp and under non-oxidative or oxidative atmospheres. Because of the possible rarefaction of fossil fuels, the analysis of di_erent combustible materials which could be used as…

We develop a resolution of the Richards equation for the porous media of variable saturation by a finite element method. A formulation of interstitial pressure head and volumetric water content is used. A good conservation of the global and local mass is obtained. Some applications in the case of heterogeneous media are presented. These are…

The goal of this study was to use underwater robots instead of a diver’s observations to monitor and record the condition of an obstructed seabed in a shallow area. It is difficult to investigate marine resources that exist in deep water shaded by rock due to large and/or small rocks on the seabed. To solve…

With the abundance of Internet and electronic devices bullying has moved its place from schools and backyards into cyberspace; to be now known as Cyberbullying. Cyberbullying is affecting a lot of children around the world, especially Arab countries. Thus concerns from cyberbullying are rising. A lot of research is ongoing with the purpose of diminishing…

This article is devoted to the problem of blocking the propagation of sound in a gas stream. This can be useful in the problems of pipeline acoustics and the design of automotive silencers, when it is necessary to ensure the opacity of the boundary (cross section of the pipe) for sound simultaneously with the free…
