In the domain of business process management, the configurable process model is widely used to optimize time and cost of business process models design, which is known as the concept of “reuse”. Using process mining techniques for process model discovery helps to provide a better view on processes and improve quality of models. The majority…

Companies manufacturing, using or transporting hazardous materials (HM) face risks at every link in their supply chain. Industrial activities related to this type of material expose not only the workers, but also the population and environment to serious risks. Logistic management and risk management are often considered independent. However, logistics choices related to hazardous materials…

The safety management system is recognized by safety leading and lagging indicators, and their correlation with injury rates. The background on this specific subject is vague in definition, labelling, and indicators measurement. The comparativeness between leading and lagging indicators have been introduced in the constructing safety performance projects evaluation. Safety performance leading indicators are the…

This paper proposes a new classification model distinguishing four classes of attacks in Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) namely: attacks based on the protocol stack, on the capability of the attacker, on the attack impacts and on the attack target. Then, it presents and classifies the most known attacks in WSNs based the proposed model. Simulations…

Nowadays, as the Information and Technology rapidly growing all across the world, Indonesia as one of many developed countries always tries to keep up relating to this trend. Regarding to this situation, the use of Information and Technology in various fields are greatly enhanced, and not to mention businesses. There are a lot of businesses…

In an enterprise Wifi network, indoor and dense, co-channel interference is a major issue. Wifi controllers help tackle this problem thanks to radio resource management (RRM). RRM is a fundamental building block of any controller functional architecture. One aim of RRM is to process the radio plan such as to maximize the overall network transmit…

In Big Data, several solution providers offer distributions to handle this large amount of data. Given the variety of these solutions, we are working to provide universal meta-modeling for all layers of a Big Data system in order to address the issue of interoperability and portability between these solutions. As part of our continuous efforts…

Health Information Technology is playing a key role in healthcare. Specifically, the use of electronic health records has been found to bring about most significant improvements in healthcare quality, mainly as relates to patient management, healthcare delivery and research support. Health record systems adoption has been promoted in many countries to support efficient, high quality…

In this work of technological development and research is presented the work done in the ITSAO to contribute to the use of clean energy such as photovoltaics and the implementation of activities to reduce electricity consumption by the technological community, the monitoring of electricity consumption is made on a monthly basis and an annual report…

Trade credit is an important cost reduction tool in the inventory management. The effect of trade credit is studied on the integrated system for sharing the cost benefits realized due to the permissible delay. Credit term factor is introduced to divide the cost benefits between the retailer and the supplier. The various costs in the…

The most important biological factors, mainly determining the economic efficiency of milk production, are the productivity potential and the level of viability of cows. The aim of the work is to predict the bio-economic effects in a heterogeneous population of dairy cows taking into account the decrease in the length of productive life with increase…

Perishable inventory management contributes simultaneously to society and the economy, by reducing food wastage and capitalizing on the freshness of goods. For this reason, countless mathematical models have been developed for their effectiveness and cost-efficient management. Yet, the majority of these models can only optimize systems for a limited time frame, allowing for small gains…

The purpose of this study was to investigate the impact of the implementation of the Online Appointment Scheduling system and Pharm Partner system technologies on the quality of working life for users in a small healthcare environment at the University of Technology, Jamaica. Both qualitative and quantitative methods were employed. Two data collection instruments were:…

The entire electrical system is changing at an abrupt speed since its beginning. With the rapid advance of renewable energies (which are constantly subject to fluctuations), the electricity generation is distributed to countless locations. The traditional model of the unidirectional flow of electricity is leaning towards multidirectional flows. This situation needs significant changes in the…

Peer-to-peer (P2P) energy trading is a mechanism that allows people to share locally the energy they have generated from distributed renewable resources (DER), to generate profit form the unused resources and to reduce the cost for electricity for the household and in the community itself. This calls for the design of new energy markets, accompanied…

The current industrial landscape is becoming increasingly aware of the need to optimize energy use and management for all domains, including telecommunications. Among others, RF Energy Harvesting is a promising technique for 5G systems as an alternative to traditional energy supply sources. This paper presents 5G landscape and ecosystem. It positions RF-Energy Harvesting in 5G…

There is no doubt that a good knowledge of traffic demand has a direct impact on improving traffic management. Road traffic is strongly correlated with many factors such as day of week, time of day, season and holidays which make it suitable for prediction. In this paper, we develop a neural network model for hourly…

Knowledge Based Systems play a very important role, within Healthcare, with a primary goal of supporting a high quality service at an optimal cost. A widely accepted knowledge acquisition technique is through the use of Business Rules in a natural language like format. As clinical terminology is centric to HealthCare, a large percentage of these…

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 modern stage of information technology development is characterized by the acute need to use cognitive technologies for the solution of tasks of practice, in particular, in the sphere of real world objects monitoring and management. Practical usage of cognitive systems of monitoring is significantly limited to two factors now: operation at the level of…

The research programme reported in this paper is set within the framework of our research under the theme of ICT support for Active Healthy Ageing (AHA). This longitudinal empirical research is focused on the study of the impact on the management of cardio-vascular disease if supported by sustained health monitoring using wearable connected devices. One…

Relational database management systems (RDBMS) have been imposed for more than three decades as a facto standard for data storage, management, and analysis. They have a good reputation by supporting ACID properties (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability) and by adopting the SQL language which has become a standardized language. However, despite their power, RDBMS have…

The traditional long-term evolved (LTE) network architecture faces major challenges due to the rapid development of mobile intelligent applications. Evolved packet core (EPC) network, as the core network of the LTE system, faces the same problem as well. In this paper, we propose an innovative EPC architecture, i.e., Not only stack (NOS)-EPC, in which we…

There are various software related to the implementation of IT Service Management (ITSM) for a company, including those that are open source and commercial. An input is needed for companies in determining what software to choose from various software, especially for small and medium enterprises (SMEs) that have limited human and financial resources. In this…
