A framework is an amalgamation of integrated tools, libraries, utilities and its coordination to interact with the other automation components. The motive of designing a test automation framework is to implement uniform standards towards automation throughout the organization to achieve the desired outcomes. Test automation framework is required to maintain the standardization of the activities…

Web services give a new view of the web as the biggest, widely accepted and the most straightforward distributed software platform. Their composition into applications and business processes is still a complex, non-trivial task, requiring highly rational efforts not only from the software developers, but from the quality assurance specialists. The provision if web service…

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…

Large power transformers generally include a customer request for a technically appropriate regulation unit. The selection process of the regulation unit consists of defining the required input data, performing mathematical calculations necessary to find the technical limit values that the regulation unit has to satisfy, and finally optimizing and selecting the appropriate regulation unit. The…

The number of smart devices inside the living environments grows more and more every day, and with it the need to interface them in order to share data and activate functions. Each day, new scenarios and new applications emerge to make our lives easier in many different contexts. The AAL SOCIALIZE project aims to create…

The article considers linear algebra as an alternative mathematical tool of logic synthesis of digital structures to Boolean algebra and synthesis methods of digital electronic component base (ECB) on its ground. The methods of solving the applied problems of logic synthesis are shown, including the expansion of an arbitrary logic function by means of monotonic…

This manuscript presents a prototype and design implementation of an advance home automation system that uses Wi-Fi technology as a network infrastructure connecting its parts. The proposed system consists of two main components; the first part is the server, which presents system core that manages and controls user’s home. Users and system administrator can locally…

A resume is a prevalent and generally employed method for individuals to showcase their proficiency and qualifications. It is typically composed using diverse customized, personalized methods in multiple inconsistent formats (such as pdf, txt, doc, etc.). Screening candidates based on the alignment of their resume with a set of job requirements is typically a labori-…

The human resource development of robotics and automation in the smart factory is an important factor in “Thailand 4.0” roadmap, which is following the industry 4.0 model. To pursue this goal of Thailand 4.0 roadmap of labor development, the effective and intuitive training system must be easy to understand. This study proposes the implementation of…

This paper is an extension of the work originally presented in the 26th International Con- ference on Automation and Computing. This study regarding hardware prefetching aims at concealing cache misses, leading to maximizing the performance of modern processors. This paper leverages prefetch coverage improvement as a way to achieve the goal. Original work proposes two…

We have been studying the application of the musical saw, an unknown and advanced tool, to a cooperative humanoid robot for industrial use. A sound feedback system using mallet strike technique and the sound generated by the technique was constructed in the previous reports. The system enables tuning to a target frequency and control to…

In the automation of the fish processing industry, the measurement surface-area and volume of the fish requires a method that focuses on processing automation. The creation of a stereo-vision based on real-time measurement method is one of the most essential aspects of this work. To do this task, we completed two steps. The first, the…

Technical safety and health are especially important for mining-extracting industry. Even though the respective lows and good engineering practices exist, technologies develop and could address even better security for humans and equipment. The research question is to survey microclimate sensors in underground mining and to find whether they are ready for automation. The article is…

Organizations make use of different tools and methods to test and evaluate software, for quality and appropriateness purposes. However, many organizations are unable to perform multiple testing activities (manual, automation and performance testing), using a single tool. As a result of limitation of some tools, some organizations are hampered in their attempt to test software,…

This paper aims to measure the acceptance level of Indonesian customers to JD.ID X retail and to reveal the driving factors of behavioral intention to shop at the retail. JD.ID X is new retail that implements a new shopping technology called Just walk-out technology (JWOT) also known as retail without a cashier. JWOT is one…

Distribution is the main activity in integrated product supply chain management. In the pharmaceutical industry, the process of drug distribution is important because of the handling, storage, and distribution of medicinal products with good standards and quality. The problem that occurs in the pharmaceutical industry is the circulation of counterfeit drugs by related parties, for…

The study aims to verify the capacity of Facebook Translation Service in translating English Facebook posts into Arabic in terms of two criteria: adequacy and fluency in line with the Translation Automation User Society (TAUS) scales. To ensure consistency and objectivity as recommended by TAUS, six evaluators, native speakers of Arabic and near-native speakers of…

Sales behavior and the technical development of products influence their fabrication. As market influences become increasingly volatile and unpredictable, factories will have to adapt their manufacturing to market trends even more in the future. Adaptation is referred to as convertibility and can be achieved, among other things, by mobile and intercompatible machines. Enabling machines to…
