determining the failure propagation paths is always an important content of safety analysis. The traditional safety analysis methods are hard to deal with large complex systems. Therefore, model-based safety analysis (MBSA) becomes increasingly popular. However, the existing modeling methodologies are mainly modeled from one of the following three aspects, function, structure and state. This lacking...
The paper presents the Maximum Time Interval Error (MTIE) function analysis based on the general features of MTIE function. It is proposed to extend the pick-to-pick functions family, particularly the relative metrics. The relationship of the new metrics that are proposed for networks with packet switching and MTIE is clarified. The general features of pick-to-pick functions are observed in the context...
The Universal Verification Methodology (UVM) that can improve interoperability, reduce the cost of using intellectual property (IP) for new projects or electronic design automation (EDA) tools, and make it easier to reuse verification components is provided. Overall, using this standard will lower verification costs and improve design quality throughout the industry. The primary audiences for this...
To avoid the contradiction between shortage and recruitment difficulties of E-business talents, we study, design and realize Web-based E-business talents recruitment system. At first, we analyze business process in the system, obtain functional requirement and apply use-case diagram as well as function module partition to describe requirement analysis. Then, based on this requirement analysis, this...
The method of structures creation of digital redundant devices with use of majority elements for fail safety support is considered in this report. This method is used for real-time systems. It is characterized by the fact that the redundant device is built in the form of excess structure with the loaded reserve, and its recovering organs are implemented on the basis of majority elements. The Important...
Manufacturing and service sectors are evolving towards achieving a design of a systemically integrated product-service system (PSS). While there exist limitations, we propose an integrative design architecture and a design method for PSSs. For the integrated architecture, our study adopts the concepts of functions and affordances as fundamentals of PSS designs to achieve both the product and life-cycle...
This paper discusses word of Haodai from the perspective of language information processing. The meaning and usages of Haodai are very complex in Mandarin. Its functions and usages in simple sentence and compound sentence have been carefully examined with explanation and appropriate examples.
Currently the SDN research community considers in-line dynamic network functions too complex for SDN, leading to calls to purge them from the forwarding plane. This paper introduces a comprehensive framework that tames this complexity and allows network administrators to deploy complex network functions into the SDN forwarding plane to provide enhanced and provable network properties. We first illustrate...
Combining actual demands for ultra-high voltage (UHV) power grid of our country electricity production, power collection, electricity transmission and distribution, functions, adequacy and reliability of different UHV power grid projection are discussed in this paper. They were discussed that differences in function and reliability of different UHV power grid structure, and the development necessity,...
Nowadays, smart substation is the main form in the substation's construction and the well-done acceptance work has become an important guarantee for the successful operation of smart substation. The current acceptance work is very complex which need experts and field technicians more cooperation to complete it. This paper analyzes the acceptance work of the smart substation and we propose a new method...
Noise suppression from the phonocardiogram (PCG) signal is important to improve the diagnostic efficiency. For the PCG signal, Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) based denoising method has been used extensively due to its good performance. However, the performance of this method depends on the threshold value and the way to apply it on the wavelet coefficients. Therefore, in this paper, an adaptive...
In today's era multimedia is playing a vital role. The Number of videos are generated in huge amount which implies the need to build the classification system based on contents of videos. The paper proposes video classification approach with data mining classifiers applied on Linde Buzo Gray Vector Quantization Codebooks of the video frames. Total 68 variations of proposed classification method with...
Stroke patients often have inappropriate finger flexor activation and finger extensor weakness, which makes it difficult to open their affected hand for functional grasp. The goal was to develop a passive, lightweight, wearable device to enable improved hand function during performance of activities of daily living. The device, HandSOME II, assists with opening the patient's hand using 11 elastic...
We present a learning-based single image super-resolution (SISR) method to obtain a high resolution (HR) image from a single given low resolution (LR) image. Our method gives more accurate results while also testing (runs) and training faster with a smaller number of training samples compared to other methods. We posed SISR as a problem of estimating a function to predict the pixels of an HR patch...
This academic paper aims to conduct a review of the specific literature on the pedagogical advantages in the use of mobile app in the teaching / learning of mathematics in High School, it was done with the consultation papers in journals and dissertations from 2000 to 2013. The research is concentrated in publications about mathematics teaching with the use of technologies. It was observed that there...
An alternate method for conducting asset criticality ranking for use on industrial assets and public infrastructure can result in staff time savings of up to 70% as compared to traditional methods, which are time consuming and sometimes misleading. The methodology proposed in this paper does follow many of the traditional approaches, including the use of cross-functional teams. Its primary differences...
Increased use of social Networking sites has resulted into vast image data being uploaded on internet. Organizing this data appropriately for easy retrieval is a tedious task. If the data is organized based on the predefined categories, it will help to speed up the retrieval of data. In this paper an image classification technique has been proposed using Fourier transform to classify the images into...
In order to assess an institute's mission and objectives, it is essential to have a framework for systematic collection, storage and analysis of course assessments for the students within the programs offered by the institute. This paper demonstrates such a framework and provides results from a Data Management System application to a KSA university as a case study.
The belief that function and performance may be addressed separately is a part of the popular reductionist mindset. On the other hand, the growing complexity of Information Systems calls for "systems thinking" - a holistic approach that challenges the reductionist theses. Here we apply the latter to testing. We assume the function of testing to be the disposition to issue valid (sound) verdicts...
Citation counting is a method to compute impact factor in scientific literature, many authors have criticized this only counting methods because they consider all citation as equal. If a paper's reputation is simply evaluated according to the number of its citations, then incomplete, incorrect or controversial articles may be promoted regardless of their relevance. We developed an annotated corpus...
