Gamified Instructional Media has recently been widely used in the education sector to improve students’ abilities. Using Gamified Instructional Media at the elementary school level becomes more interesting because it is in accordance with the way children learn K1-K6. The research aims to identify the gamified instructional using Genially to improve students’ critical and creative…

The development of an aggregated system consisting of autonomously developed components is usually implemented as a self-contained unit. If such an aggregation is understood as a system of systems (SoS) that communicates via interfaces with its autonomous subsystems and components, the interfaces and communication exchange should play a central role in the architectural design. In…

Overall Performance (OP) measurement is an essential instrument in sustainable manufacturing implementation and management. The effective use of key performance indicators (KPIs) can potentially contribute to identify the firm’s overall performance, provide the crucial gaps between desired results and current actions, and thus facilitate the implementation and execution of improvement strategies. This study attempts to…

Blockchain technology is seeing a trend of popularity and adoption in many different application areas. One such area is healthcare, as there is a need to develop a system that can reliably store and share electronic health records (EHRs) among hospital-based health facilities. In this paper, we present a cloud-based hierarchical consortium blockchain framework for…

Dynamic Searchable Symmetric Encryption (DSSE) methods address the problem of securely outsourcing updating private data into a semi-trusted cloud server. Furthermore, Forward Privacy (FP) notion was introduced to limit data leakage and thwart the related attacks on DSSE approaches. FP schemes ensure previous search queries cannot be linked to future updates and newly added files.…

The use of Covid-19 contact tracing applications has become almost irrelevant now that several flavors of Covid-19 vaccine have been developed and are constantly being distributed to people during the pandemic to help alleviate the need for lockdowns. Also, the availability of at-home testing kits and testing sites means that people do not need to…

WhatsApp application is considered the largest messaging application around the world and an important source of information, they just incorporated a new technique that operates on end-to-end encryption, which presents a significant problem for forensic investigators and analysts. This study describes how to recover the encryption key from WhatsApp to decrypt WhatsApp databases and retrieve…

An enduring vision of Artificial Intelligence is to build robots that can recognize and learn the visual world and who can speak about it in natural language. Automatic image description generation is a demanding problem in Computer Vision and Natural Language Processing. The applications of image description generation systems are in biomedicine, military, commerce, digital…

On Renewable Energy (RE), this field covers the most significant share of the world energy demand and challenges on the expensive measurement and maintenance equipment to be used. In all studies and designs, global solar radiation (GSR) measurements require assessment, estimation, and models to be applied together with the environment and meteorological data on installing…

The context for the study was a naturally occurring quasi-experiment in the core mathematics program in a large Australian university. Delivery of teaching was changed in a sequence of two initial core mathematics subjects taken by engineering and science students. The change replaced one of two face-to-face tutorial classes per week by an online tutorial.…

Our world is characterised by uncertainty and complex, relational structures that carry temporal information, yielding large dynamic probabilistic relational models at the centre of many applications. We consider an example from logistics in which the transportation of cargoes using vessels (objects) driven by the amount of supply and the potential to generate revenue (relational) changes…

In 1998 we were talking about an NTIC era, and since the years 2010, we are tracing the beginning of a new era of technological development, called the era of digital transformation. During this new era companies have started to run towards the digitalization of their processes, which represent a large part of the market,…

Using Proofs of Retrievability (PORs), a file owner is able to check that a cloud server correctly stores her files. Using Proofs of Retrievability and Reliability (PORRs), she can even verify at the same time that the cloud server correctly stores both her original files and their replicas. In 2020, a new PORR combined with…

The Nodes equipped with wireless technology cooperate in an autonomous and instantaneous way to form a mobile ad hoc network. It turns out that several factors make this type of network vulnerable to various security threats. Considering the sensitivity of user data routed through nodes, routing security should be a priority in mobile ad hoc…

The transmission network has been considered among the globe’s prevalent complex systems, comprised of hundreds of electrical transmission lines and other equipment used to transmit electrical energy from one location to another. Over a decade, power engineers have worked tirelessly to ensure that the transmission network operates reliably, transmitting electrical energy from the power station…

Sustainable energy is gradually becoming the norm today due to greenhouse warming effects; as a result, the quests for different renewable energy sources such as photovoltaic cells as well as energy efficient electrical appliances are becoming popular. Therefore, this article explores the alternative energy case for thermoelectricity with focus on the steady-state mathematics, mixed modelings…

This paper reports on the successful deposition of amorphous carbon nitride thin films (a-CNx). Samples were deposited using a DC-pulsed sputtering technique in CH3CH2OH-N2 atmosphere at constant pressure (1 Torr). Raman spectra were collected to investigate the bonding structure of the deposed thin films, while scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) were…

The main goal of the work is to determine the basic conceptual solutions of a nuclear reactor operating on the surface of another planet. The problem was solved using the example of the Martian nuclear power plant. The article uses calculation and optimization research methods and corresponding program codes (well-known and author’s). The results of…

The research investigated the consequence of self-regulated learning on students’ academic performance in physics, using selected public co-education schools in Aguata Educational Zone, Anambra State as the research area. The study became necessary as a result of the observed persistent poor performance of the student in Physics in external examinations over the years. The study…

This work proposes a new unsupervised learning approach to detect and locate the risks “abnormal event” in video scenes using Faster R-CNN and Bidirectional LSTM autoencoder. The approach proposed in this work is carried out in two steps: In the first step, we used a bidirectional LSTM autoencoder to detect the frames containing risks. In…

Concomitant with the ubiquity of lightweight electronic terminals, such as smartphones and tablets, e-books have increased in popularity. However, studies have shown that their display method and information-presentation efficiency need improvement. We investigated visual information processing during reading to develop a more efficient display method that presents information in an easier to see fashion than…
