Signal Analyzers have been widely used in automatic test equipment (ATE) since the first computer controlled Spectrum analyzer introduced by Hewlett Packard (now Agilent) back in 1978. These signal analyzers are widely used to find signals in the frequency domain whether wanted or unwanted (spurious signals). One of the largest issues with signal analyzers are their ability to create additional signals,...
With the rapid development of computer technology and network transmission technology, more and more demand are put forward to improve the work efficiency, which are not limited to just use computers and laptops. In most institute of Measurement, too many instrument transfer process seriously restricted the work efficiency, how to solve the problem with smart mobile terminal has become a common topic...
In recent years, there have been increasing interests in the field of Human Computer Interaction (HCI) towards gaming. Due to the competitive industry and high demand for novelty in today's world, gaming has now become a valuable and stimulating research setting for HCI researchers to study its interface and interaction design, input devices, graphical user interface, social communication and development...
Refactoring leads to more maintainable software. To refactor the code, it must be known which part of code needs to be refactored. For this purpose code smells are used. Detecting code smells in itself is a challenging task. In this paper we propose a technique based on dynamic analysis for the detection of Feature Envy code smell. Feature envy is a method level smell and occurs when a method is more...
In this paper, we evaluate the susceptibility of notebook computers to high power microwave (HPM) pulses. We have developed a HPM test instrument with stripline structure. The structures of the test instrument are investigated through finite-difference time domain (FDTD) analysis to get homogeneous electromagnetic fields inside the instrument. The developed instrument can apply a 2.7 kV/m electric...
Spectrum-based fault localization techniques are semi-automated program debugging techniques that address the bottleneck of finding suspicious program locations for diagnosis. They assess the fault suspiciousness of individual program locations based on the code coverage data achieved by executing the program under debugging over a test suite. A program location can be viewed at different abstraction...
Emotion recognition nowadays plays vital role in human-computer reaction. Different approaches and methods were applied to recognize accurately individual's emotions. However, pupil diameter (PD) is one of the well-known and reliable approaches in identifying emotions. It is controlled by Automatic Nervous System (ANS) and is easy to detect. The goal of this paper is to identify the difference in...
It is necessary to test the logging instrument during its development and production. Generally, these test tasks need to be completed in the experimental well, which will not only bring a lot of inconvenience for researchers and site workers, but also waste a lot of manpower and material resources. The embedded multifunctional down hole test system can replace experimental well to complete simulation...
A control system of a computer's cursor by recording eye movement using electro-oculographs (EOG) as its principle is presented in this paper. The EOG is the technique that allows detection of the angular displacement of the eye due to corneal-retinal potential present in the eyeball. The aim of this paper is to lay a foundation for the development of a complete systems support for both communication...
This paper presents preparing high voltage for Geiger counter along with data acquisition and monitoring technique by LabVIEW. A high voltage generation circuit is designed for the GM counter and the recorded data is stored, analyzed and monitored in a personal computer with the help of National Instruments Data Acquisition card (DAQ card). The interface between hardware and computer is done by the...
The user is still weakest link regarding information security matters, but studies on this subject are rare. The aim of this work is to develop general Users' Information Security Awareness Questionnaire (UISAQ). Development consists of selecting suitable items for which is assumed that measure the level of security awareness and testing impact of each item in measurement. Questionnaire consisted...
This paper is built upon prior research on enterprise knowledge sharing. Our objective is to explore the role of affect among knowledge workers on adoption of knowledge sharing tools (KST). We examine two different constructs: positive affect and negative affect and their relationships. These affective constructs will be added into TAM (Technology Adoption Model) developed by Davis. Positive affect...
Advancement of technology has made it possible to facilitate the delivery of education through an e-learning system almost anywhere and anytime beyond a physical space. To achieve learners' satisfaction and increase acceptance of e-learning among students, an investigation of the technological aspects of e-learning system is urgently needed. The purpose of this study was to identify the most important...
In this paper, the process of prototype development of a home-based heart rate monitoring system using a virtual instrumentation platform is proposed. A prototype was implemented on the virtual instrumentation to enable transmission of heart rate information of a patient via short messaging services (SMS) and email notification at the prototyping stage. The experiment tests showed that the instrumentation...
Large aerospace organizations typically spend significant resources in optimizing system design by means of specialized software (e.g., computer-aided design, simulation). Conversely, architectural decisions are made much faster, with far less resources, and typically, in a much less structured way. This is despite clear indications that architectural decisions fix many design decisions, and have...
Cat food manufacturers spend a significant proportion of their research budget on food formulation and palatability. In this paper we propose an efficient and economic method of monitoring cat feeding behaviour during palatability trials. Instrumenting food bowls with load cells measures how much is eaten in each meal, and video records the interaction with the food during meals. Adaptive background...
This article presents the use of remote experimentation laboratories and its application in the school context. The purpose of this educational tool is to complement the teaching and learning process and to promote learning beyond the classroom through the use of technology. Remote experimentation has been configured as an alternative to promote this learning supplement thus helping the new generation...
According with the development of science and technology, education must follow the growing trends and offer modern and effective tools to achieve the goal, which is a modern and educated society. On the technical universities, the need for laboratories is particularly important because it is necessary to verify and deepen the theoretical knowledge and educate students to solve practical problems...
The present study aims at investigating the effect of technology integration in general and normalization of CALL in particular on Iranian teachers' technological, pedagogical, and content knowledge (TPACK). It also examines teachers' main opportunities and challenges with normalization of CALL. In this regard, 16 teachers taught a course with the goal to integrate computer technology fully. The researcher...
We propose a basic metric for design sheets of infrastructure in order to improve infrastructure quality. The metric is called as LOI (Line Of Item). LOI is a simple metric of infrastructure for measuring scale and quality of infrastructure, as same as LOC (Line Of Code) of software. In addition, a class diagram of design sheets is provided in UML software design technique. LOI and the class diagram...
