The paper presents the development and implementation of a Digital Signal Processing algorithm for the Speed Indication Display with a 24 GHz continuous wave Doppler radar. The algorithm is based on a well-known zerocrossing algorithm and filtering. This paper is focused on implementing this algorithm into a widely used microcontroller, which is usually mounted on the Arduino Uno board. MATLAB/Simulink...
Security protocols are critical components for the construction of secure and dependable distributed applications, but their implementation is challenging and error prone. Therefore, tools for formal modelling and analysis of security protocols can be potentially very useful to support software engineers. However, despite such tools have been available for a long time, their adoption outside the research...
The Internet of Things has gained extraordinary popularity recently and is only expected to grow in the coming years. Being able to receive data and information from Things anywhere in the world will bring big changes in every facet of people's daily lives. These Things are service providers themselves. A user should be able to find a Thing and ask for a service that will be provided by the Thing...
High quality voltage and current are required when PV generator is connected to grid utility. To this, multilevel inverters are very desirable to be used as connection interface. To keep the cost of the whole system as low as possible, a cost-effective control device using STM32F4 discovery board is employed to control three-level inverter that can be used in grid-tied PV system. The paper develops...
The paper considers the results of MATLAB modeling of artificial neural networks trained to perform basic logical operations: AND, OR, XOR and NOT. Below is a description of implementation of these artificial neural networks on a microcontroller by Texas Instruments family MSP430G2x, which is marketed by the manufacturer as an ultra-low power consumption device. Implementation of artificial neural...
In this paper, we present experimental results of photovoltaic (PV) emulator systems implemented in a low-cost microcontroller. The insufficiency of space for installation of real PV panels and the high costs of the commercial emulators require of alternative systems which allow the generation of the characteristic curves of the solar panels. Irradiance and temperature can be set on the emulator to...
The paper defines the main causes of impermissible dynamic loads in the shaft assemblies of a horizontal plate mill stand. It substantiates the development and commercialization of a stationary telemetry system for continuous control of the torque of the shaft assemblies at the 5,000 mm mill stand at Magnitogorsk Iron and Steel Works, OJSC. The authors determine the main system functions and list...
E-government is a powerful tool that can strengthen the performance of government and public administration. In this paper, we seek to develop an improved understanding of the level and status of e-government implementation in Lesotho and how that may aid decision makers in planning and designing e-government implementations. To this end, the study employed the Human-Organisation-Technology (HOT)...
Lean Manufacturing is a concept of organization managing intended for minimization of various costs and maximum consumer orientation. This system consists of a variety of tools such as Just-In-Time system, Kanban system or 5S system; their sharing allows of realization the philosophy of Lean Manufacturing. Russian companies face a number of challenges when implementing this concept — incorrect interpretation...
This paper presents Job to Major (J2M), an opensource tool design to link job requirements with University of Southampton's major information. J2M currently provides two functions: suggesting the most suitable majors to potential students of the university based on the job requirements, find jobs that are closely link to what students acquire from their major. The development of J2M is according to...
Design and implementation are two major aspects of the software development and the deviation between them needs to be minimized to the best extent possible. Of the many difficulties in detecting the deviation is the absence of common notation to compare the implementation artefact (code) against the design artefact. In this paper we present an approach to bridge the gap by providing a methodology...
The failure of e-Government in a number of sector units happened because the implementation of e-Government is not easy. The old paradigm assume that e-Government is simply by installing a computer makes the implementation of e-Government failure. In fact, the success of e-Government is influenced by various factors called Critical Success Factors (CSFs). This study aims to map CSFs that influenced...
This study aims to propose a generic critical success factors (CSFs) of e-Government Implementation. CSFs of e-Government implementation has been formulated by a number of researchers, but they are spread out and there is no agreement or consensus of CSFs. Many research identify some CSFs of e-Government implementation but tend to ignore some CSFs proposed by other researchers so as not to obtain...
Information-Centric Networking (ICN) is receiving attention as an emerging network technology. Due to its attractive features, such as accessing content by its name, in-network caching, etc., ICN is expected to apply essentially to the Internet of Things (IoT). IoT applications typically collect a large amount of data widely distributed in various locations. For such usage, we proposed the architecture...
Localization algorithms have become of considerable interest for robot audition, acoustic navigation, teleconferencing, speaker localization, and many other applications over the last decade. In this paper, we present a real-time implementation of a Gaussian mixture model (GMM) based probabilistic sound source localization algorithm for a low-power VLIW-SIMD processor for hearing devices. The algorithm...
We have recently witnessed the emerging of cloud computing on one hand and robotics platforms on the other hand. Naturally, these two visions have been merging to give birth to the Cloud Robotics paradigm in order to offer even more remote services. But such a vision is still in its infancy. Architectures and platforms are still to be defined to efficiently program robots so they can provide different...
Lifelog videos, which are the records of a person's daily life as video data, draw attention since various recording devices such as smartphone become widely used. Due to privacy reasons, lifelog videos are usually managed by the owners of the videos although the amount of video data is quite large. This makes it quite difficult to find interesting and impressive scenes from lifelog videos. In order...
Choosing the right method to sort numbers has a huge effect on how quickly a computer can process a task. The most used sorting algorithms today have been discovered years ago, and to this day, they have been the best for the job as there was no other competitive algorithm. Through this paper, we make an analysis and comparison between the state of the art algorithms in sorting and based on their...
