Recent years have shown an increase demand for wireless communication which creates new challenges in the field where intelligent spectrum utilization is necessary to maintain high network performance. The emergence of Cognitive Radios which provide opportunistic access to the spectrum, introduce an improvement in the spectrum utilization and the communication quality. Through dynamic spectrum access...
The problem considered in this paper is regression with a constraint on the precision of each prediction in the framework of data streams subject to concept drifts (when the hidden distribution which generates the observations can change over time). Concept drifts can diminish the reliability of the predictions over time and it might not be possible to output a prediction which satisfies the constraints...
We introduce a powerful technique to make classifiers more reliable and versatile. Background Check equips classifiers with the ability to assess the difference of unlabelled test data from the training data. In particular, Background Check gives classifiers the capability to (i) perform cautious classification with a reject option, (ii) identify outliers, and (iii) better assess the confidence in...
With the ever shrinking dimension of a chip on a die, it is evident that the channels of on-chip networks (NoCs) are often exposed to logic level manufacturing faults such as stuck-at faults. The faults coercively put the networks into miscellaneous system level failures like packet corruption, misrouting, and dropping. Thus, the reliability has become a special interest. Additionally, the performance...
Due to the growing demand of skilled workers and the need of improving the quality of human resources, it is of utmost important that the current set of students are trained towards this global objective. Hence, it is empirical that these students acquire all the necessary skills including the basic knowledge that they need in order to make them competent workers. So, there is a need of a skill performance...
In the recent years, there is an increasing focus on studies concerning student's engagement in the tertiary education. Student's engagement in learning is important to guarantee a good academic result. Thus it is important to encourage engagement from students in the learning process as the more engaged the students is, the better the absorption of the knowledge a student will receive. Previous literatures...
In order to realize the function of accurate measurement, multipoint collection and wireless transmission on various environmental monitoring factors in the workshop, a workshop environment monitoring system is proposed based on the technology of internet of things. A number of wireless monitoring nodes are set up in each workshop to collect a variety of environmental information, then transmit the...
The recently proposed combinatorial approach for multi-parametric quadratic programming (mpQP) has shown to be more efficient than geometric approaches in finding the complete solution when dealing with systems with high dimension of the parameter vector. This method, however, tends to become very slow as the number of constraints increases. Recently, a modification of the combinatorial method is...
Every university is required to have a good learning tool and a tool which can increase the competition between universities. So, the university can win the competition with other universities in line with increasing the society needs of formal education. The object of this research is one of the universities in Jakarta, Indonesia, whereas the focus is the feature or variable of user friendly and...
The research was conducted to find factors that affect quality of SMEs' online marketing website. The research's result will be useful to give recommendation on online marketing that used by franchisor. This research used DeLone & McLean Model with questionnaire to 103 students who have had an experience in buying online. Respondents were chosen using Simple Random Sampling Method. Data were analysed...
Communication becomes core and one of the most important roles in many business practices, indeed audit as a service product is no exception to communication needs. This research is conducted to examine whether auditor's ability and willingness to communicate with client and professionalism in work as variable independent have significant impact on client responses in collaborating and supporting...
The occurrence of Voltage collapse has been considered a frequent phenomenon in the recent time and has been a growing concern to the power system utility. Thus, the importance of identifying nodes where reactive power compensator can be placed for voltage stability enhancement. This paper proposed a technique based on the network topological structure of the power system. The suggested technique...
The purpose of this study is to investigate the best practices in the transdisciplinary field of knowledge management system implementation and measurement of IT Complain in a telecommunication company (PT Telkomsel). This paper examines three variables of Knowledge Management (People, Process and Technology) and IT Complain Variable. This research used two methods such as a qualitative and quantitative...
Master Xuanzang is a prominent, highly esteemed monk in Chinese Buddhist history. Master Xuanzang's most distinguished achievement was the long and perilous pilgrimage he took to India to obtain a large quantity of Buddhist scriptures, many of which he translated into Chinese. In addition to enriching the collection of Chinese Buddhist scriptures, these Mahayana sutras and treatises are reliable sources...
In recent years, green advertising is the most frequently method adopted to generalize environmental protection. The appeal method of the advertising is the focal point to achieve its objective. In this study, on the basis of the five appeal methods including emotional appeal, rational appeal, humorous appeal, moral appeal and fear appeal, the viewers' reaction to the five appeal methods are measured...
The purposes of the study are: to test the quality of services provided by the Land Administration Agent in Taiwan through PZB, a model of service quality; through the weighted differences showed by the important factors in the evaluation of service quality of the Land Administration Agent by the customers, we could understand which professional abilities and service items should be enhanced and tried...
Most of the township level administration buildings of Taiwan are out-aged or fail to meet the needs of residents due to population pressure. Some of the township administration buildings were rebuilt or relocated once those were aged or overcrowded. This research is thus aimed to understand the factors that affected the satisfaction of the users and staffs of a township. As well the Delphi method,...
An evaluation of electrostatic-discharge (ESD) reliability by changing the source-end layout of 45-V HV pLDMOS devices is investigated in this paper. After testing and systematic analysis, it can be found that a traditional pLDMOS sample is always very weak in ESD issues (It2= 0.107-A). At the same time, if a pLDMOS with a stripe type embedded SCR (p-n-p-arrangement in the drain-end); the corresponding...
5G Networks are anticipated to provide a diverse set of services over Network Slices (NS) using Network Function Virtualization (NFV) technologies. We propose solutions to enable NS selection and routing of traffic routing through a NS. A framework for enabling negotiation, selection and assignment of NSs for requesting applications in 5G networks is presented. A definition for service description...
This study aims to address how change agents assist engineering instructors in adopting new curriculum. During a two-day workshop, 16 mechanics of materials instructors from community colleges and universities around the Pacific Northwest developed hands-on activities and models that they later implemented in their classrooms. Five additional instructors became interested in the materials developed...
