With the expansion of available high-throughput genomic technologies such as DNA microarray and next generation sequencing (NGS) in the past two decades, knowing how to use appropriate software tools running on powerful computers is a necessity for biologists/physicians to identify new genes or targets. Thus, bioinformaticians have been developing many user-friendly analytical tools/systems; those...
One of the existing general definitions of a cyber-physical system (CPS) can be stated as: a firmly integrated engineered system consisting of electronics, computing, communication, and control sub-systems. It is a relatively new emerging multidisciplinary field, and can be thought as an intersection of physical, biological, engineering and information sciences. CPS has a number of potential applications...
A method for precision mass and force measurement, the levitation mass method (LMM), are reviewed. The LMM has been proposed and improved by the author. In the LMM, the inertial force of a mass levitated using a pneumatic linear bearing is used as the reference force applied to the objects under test, such as force transducers, materials or structures. The inertial force of the levitated mass is measured...
This paper explores the experiences of eHealth development in different environments and the key factors influencing success. In particular the relationship between project based objectives and underpinning infrastructure and standards required. Alternative approaches for delivery in an telecommunications challenged environment.
Recent microbiological study gave us a revised look at how humans interact with microorganisms. That microbial landscape is now extended from ocean bottom to outer space. In addition to panspermia origin of life discussion, we have more immediate issues with space craft biotome and planet probe quarantine. Space exploration planners need to give much more attention to lunar surface quarantine, after...
Radio astronomy is fundamental to a multi-wavelength and multi-messenger program for astronomy and astrophysics that has evolved since several decades ago. Substantial revolution in astrophysics has been made possible by radio astronomy such as the discoveries of quasar, pulsar, binary pulsar, cosmic microwave background, and so on. The entire radio spectrum in astronomy covers wavelengths from tens...
After India and Brazil, Indonesia is one of the three biggest endemic areas. Report showed that Indonesia's curing rate only 80–90 %. Delay of detect new cases and uncured of leprosy patients will make Indonesia continue to experience many new cases every year. Furthermore, the data showed that Indonesia still had problems in the leprosy control program. Therefore this study explored the barrier of...
Bone problem can be examined using ultrasound imaging modalities. Using 3D imaging technologies, information of the bone could be acquired in one go, and analyzed later. Prototype of 3D reconstruction for ultrasound imaging modalities had been developed in this research. However, the system not yet integrated with any position tracker, thus testing for the system only done in a simulation by acquiring...
This research will focus on options to reduce the complexity and cost of designing and evaluating smart homes by developing a residential environment and ambient sensor simulator that can respond to different movements of people. The map editor is used to create and save different types of floor plans, including existing furniture or appliances and to add ambient sensors in a 2-dimensional (2D) model...
Microfluidic channel in a chip is the basic element of a lab on a chip (LoC) which is potential for automated cheap, fast, and sensitive biomedical, environmental, and food safety test. In this paper, the fabrication of simple microfluidic chips without using any cleanroom facility were reported. The chip was constructed by sandwiching a patterned stationery plastic sheet by two microscope slides...
In this work, a novel coplanar waveguide (CPW) fed rectangular patch antenna embedded with four L-shaped slots for WiMAX application was proposed. This antenna is designed by using an FR4 epoxy board with dielectric constant, εr = 4.4, tangent loss, tan δ = 0.019 and the thickness of substrate, h = 1.6mm. There are two methods applied in this antenna to improve the characteristic of the antenna. The...
In this work, a dual layer rectangular microstrip patch antenna with H-slot is proposed for improving the return loss and enhanced gain at 2.4 GHz and 2.45 GHz. The antenna is designed by using CST Microwave Studio is used to design the mathematically based on the rectangular microstrip patch antenna. Simulated and experimental results obtained for this antenna show that it exhibits good radiation...
Equivalent Circuit (EC) method gives a simple alternative method in FSS analyses which are useful for quickly predicting the characteristic of FSS. Impedance of the EC for a unit cell of the design Frequency Selective Surface (FSS) structure is investigated in this paper. The unit cell of the design FSS structure consists of FSS structures placed on the FR4, glass and hybrid (FR4+glass). The square,...
Infant Mortality Rate (IMR) is the predominant problem in medical, especially in developing countries like Indonesia. One cause of IMR increasing is diagnosis mistake of infant pain. Baby's communication have not perfect, it is leading to high risk of diagnosis mistake when the baby feels pain, such as post-surgery conditions. This problem encourages research on the pain identification of infant facial...
Motion detection and tracking of facial features usually use special markers placed assistance on the part of the facial features, there is making the actor became uncomfortable in the process of making motion are applied in the world of animation either games or animated movies. Facial motion captures without any marker or marker less is one of the new techniques in Computer Vision. In this study...
This paper describes the results of research in finding the X-ray image features for the development of computer applications for identification of lung tuberculosis (TB) disease. We used statistical features of image histogram by calculates five features: mean, standar deviation (std), skewness, kurtosis, and entropy. These features were calculated from ROI images using pre-defined ROI shape from...
This paper presents comparison on IV Characteristics analysis between Silicon and InGaAs PIN Photodiode. PIN Photodiode is a structure that is consists of positive region, intrinsic region and negative region (PIN). The thick intrinsic regions are a difference to a normal PN Photodiode. PIN Photodiodes practical as Photodetectors, Attenuators and Radio frequency (RF) switches. The simple, low cost...
