This paper has conducted the study of the impact and effectiveness of Google Classroom in online teaching and learning. Based on the unified theory of acceptance and use of technology (UTAUT2), the first aim was to rank the 8 constructs namely: Performance Expectancy, Effort Expectancy, Social Influence, Facilitating Conditions, Hedonic Motivation, Habit, Behavioral Intention, and…

The huge number of images on the image sharing websites poses challenges for classification and retrieval of the images. On many image sharing websites, tags can be assigned by the users to an image that describes the contextual and visual description of an image. However, ambiguous or incorrect tags have appeared in frequent tags that…

Text classification is considered one of the most fundamental and essential problems that deal with automatically classifying textual resources into pre-defined categories. Numerous algorithms, datasets, and evaluation measurements have been proposed to address the task. Within the era of information redundancy, it is challenging and time-consuming to engineering a sizable amount of data in multi-languages…

With the development of big data, artificial intelligence and deep learning, various social information networks are becoming exponentially intelligent. Of all the various social networks, YouTube is so popular that it is called the YouTube era. Not only video viewers, but also actual video producers, influencer youtubers, are increasing, allowing individuals as well as operators…

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…

Many decision problems have more than one objective that need to be dealt with simultaneously. Moreover, because of the qualitative nature of the most of real world problem it is an inevitable activity and very important to interpret and present the uncertain information for making effective decision. The Evidential Reasoning (ER) approach which is one…

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-…

In this work, the impact of implementing a large amount of decentralized renewable energy sources (RES) of different scales on an extra-large power grid is investigated. Three scenarios are created, substituting 10%, 20%, and 30% of the conventional energy production by RES. For this purpose, the initial dynamic model of Continental Europe in combination with…

Microcontrollers have revolutionized the field of Engineering Education. Their popularity and cost-effectiveness have opened a large door of activity for innovative projects at both the undergraduate and graduate levels. The purpose of this article is to review this activity in terms of where two of these microcontrollers have been used in Engineering Education so as…

On the 11th of March 2020, the World Health Organization (WHO) declared COVID-19 as a pandemic. Part of controlling measures of the pandemic is to understand the disease’s trajectories. There are several possible interventions that can prevent and control its spread. Determining an optimal strategy is critical for policymakers to understand the impact of different…

The Bolivian higher education system comprises 59 universities; these institutions have the challenge of increasing their scientific production since it is one of the factors to provide quality education and meet one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). But currently, the GDP assigned to the research and development (R&D) sector of Bolivia is 0.16%.…

Nowadays the sustainable awareness trend is increasing. The consumers’ attitude has changed, causing companies to pay more attention to management in a sustainable way. Effective sustainable supply chain management (SSCM) can increase social, economic, and environmental benefits. Important factors from literatures were gather and organized to be a framework for SSCM. The proposed framework incorporates…

Enrolment figures have been expanding in South African institutions of higher-learning, however, the expansion has not been accompanied by a proportional increase in the percent- age of enrolled learners completing their degrees. In a recent undergraduate-cohort-studies report, the DHET highlight the low percentage of students completing their degrees in the allotted time, having remained between…

Data sensitivity analysis using normalization techniques in decision making has an impact on preference values and rankings in the case of social assistance programs for student online. The distribution of assistance is disproportionate and not on target to potential recipients. This study aims to analyze data sensitivity from simple data normalization techniques and linear techniques…

COVID-19 is a viral disease that became a pandemic representing a very great challenge worldwide. The purpose of this article is to analyze COVID-19 patients’ data based on time- to-event analysis and identify the factors that affect the recovery time from COVID-19. The datasets that are used in this study are for cases that are…

It is well documented that the average length of the queries submitted to Web search engines is rather short, which negatively impacts the engines’ performance, as measured by the precision metric. It is also well known that ambiguous keywords in a query make it hard to identify what exactly search engine users are looking for.…

Until recent years, code quality was not given due significance, as long as the system produced accurate results. Taking into account the implications and recent losses in critical systems, developers have started making use of static code analysis tools, to assess the eminence of source code in terms of quality. Static code analysis is conducted…

Feature selection method applied on an intrusion dataset is used to classify the intrusion data as normal or intrusive. We have made an attempt to detect and classify the intrusion data using rank-based feature selection classifiers. A set of redundant features having null rank value are eliminated then the performance evaluation using various feature selection…

This article is part of the field of Multi-Criteria Decision Aid (MCDA), where several criteria must be considered in decision making. All criteria are generally as varied as possible and express different dimensions, and aspects of the decision problem posed. For more than four decades, several MCDA methods have emerged and have been applied perfectly…

The effect of the moving dispersive conducting complex scatterer on the scattering of incident H-wave is investigated herein. In this research, a simulation shows how the scattered phase and magnitude of a moving (rotating and translating) circular cylinder with higher conductivity, made of dispersive material, is affected in the case of incident H-wave (TE-mode) polarization.…

The ability to verify the critical risk factors related to an effective diagnosis is very crucial for improving accuracy on coronary heart disease prediction. The objective of this research is to find the best predictive model for coronary heart disease diagnosis. Three approaches are set up to achieve the goals (1) investigating the classifier algorithms…

In Peru, approximately since 2013, a necessary change has begun in the importance given to research, science, technology, and technological innovation.
