In the present paper, a universal approach for determining the maximum flow problem in directed graph for solving different problems is applied. It can be considered as a heuristic and it can be used as a denomination for analyzing an arbitrary system with a mathematical description as a directed graph. The physical nature of the…

Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) is broadly accepted and has proved applicable in identifying consumers’ willingness to utilize information and communication technology (ICT). The theory proposes that Perceived Ease of Use (PEOU) and Perceived Usefulness (PU) are actually determining factors of individual attitudes, while attitude is a determining factor of Behavioural Intention (BI) and Behavioural Intention…

Technology is advancing faster today than ever before with evidence of its impact in all facets of our lives. With the spread of the novel COVID-19 pandemic across the world, schools were closed as part of lockdown measures to contain the virus thereby disrupting academic curricula. Academic institutions leveraged ICTs to virtually engage students and…

3D city modeling may be considered as one of the key applications, that are provided by the Automated Feature Extraction (AFE) techniques from LiDAR data. The authors attempt to prove that with growing availability of LiDAR surveying methods the resulted 3D city models become the most significant modeled features for any urban environment. Our paper…

The large and ever-increasing variety of remote sensing sensors used in satellite imagery today explains why detecting changes between identical locations in images that are captured, at two separate times, from heterogeneous capturing systems is a major and challenging recent research problem in the field of satellite imaging for fast and accurate determination of temporal…

The adoption of Engine-in-the-loop technology shows real behaviour. This study presents a test runs simulation platform with real engine data. In addition, a test bench model is a demand approach that offers a significant potential to provide an excellent reproducibility of test runs. The platform includes the data integration to upgrade tests run and a…

The purpose of this research is to study the relevance of factors for the analysis of the effectiveness of suitable educational institutions that illustrate the significance of the characteristics and attributes of the student’s academic achievements and to identify the acceptance and tolerance of each attribute, which supports lifelong learning. The data used in this…

Social skills and resilience are very important aspects for mental health; therefore, it is necessary to take into account the positive contribution in the development of adolescents, they are in a vulnerable stage, adapting to physical, mental, emotional, etc. changes. Adolescents, not knowing how to handle the difficulties that may arise, if they do not…

This investigation deals with the identification of the suitable empirical models for predicting radio wave propagation path losses in Erbil city of Kurdistan region in Iraq. For this purpose, two sites of Korek Telecom operating at 1800 MHz and 2100 MHz have been selected at urban and sub-urban environments in the city and seven different…

This paper has explored the technology beliefs of university students considering four parameters. We have proposed an automatic belief identification system for academic institutions. For this, we used two different clustering algorithms to segment the student group with different beliefs about the technology. In the Hierarchical Clustering (HC), the Agglomerative approach was followed. The beliefs…

This paper proposes a closed association rule generation technique to investigate the association patterns of diseases that are frequent co-occurrence. Diseases records of 5,000 patients are studied to find the association patterns of disease co-occurrence. The CHARM algorithm is adapted to find frequent diseases that can cover all-important patterns with a small number. Then the…

Increased recycling of PVC has become a requirement in industrial and scientific research level. Several studies will be realized. To confirm and check the recycled materials performance, it will be important to go through numerical modeling, which consists not only in validating the results of the experiments, but also in predicting what happens when the…

Bearings are the key components of many rotating machines, in which serious failure or even major breakdown may occur due to their abnormal operation and defects. Thus, accurate fault diagnoses of bearing elements are essential for proactive predictive maintenance. However, the using of multiple sensors with high sampling rate reveal considerable shortages in the analysis…
