The Philippine mango particularly the “Carabao” variety is a very important local and export fruit crop in the Philippines. Mangoes are typically sold as fresh fruit or processed. Mango processing will invariably include peeling process which is typically done manually.
Software Engineering is a primary subject in many computer science departments of universities worldwide. Its purpose is to help students understand and apply both disciplined and systematic methods to software development. Due to the ubiquity and visibility of software in the modern world, the study, education and research into software engineering and its practice have retained a high level of interest...
This paper reports on a qualitative study of the use of declarative process notations used in a commercial setting. Specifically, we investigate the actual use of a system implemented in terms of DCR graphs for the Danish "Dreyer Foundation" by our industry partner Exformatics A/S. The study is performed by analysing logs of actual use of the system. By the study we seek to illuminate the...
Provides an abstract for each of the presentations and a brief professional biography of each presenter. The complete presentations were not made available for publication as part of the conference proceedings.
Electronic Design Automation (EDA) has had a profound impact on the development of modern computing and information technology which in turn has transformed our lives and society. Despite its dominant focus on electronics, EDA is one of the first fields in engineering that has taken a truly interdisciplinary route: several abstractions, computational models, algorithms, methodologies, and tools have...
Over the past decade, CMOS scaling has seen increasingly intrusive challenges from cost, variability, energy, reliability, and fundamental device-architectural and materials limitations. To maintain Moore's-Law scaling of integration value, the industry is urgently exploring beyond-silicon and beyond-CMOS device, interconnect and memory options, as well as heterogeneous, “More than Moore” integration...
In the field of nuclear engineering, national colleges have been carrying out important roles with about 10 % of graduates obtaining jobs in nuclear related companies. Although national colleges do not have special courses and classes for nuclear engineering, we have been trying to educate our students in cooperation with universities and industries through the activities of the Japan Nuclear Human...
We present the new results on the methodology applied at the Universidad de Ingeniería y Tecnología (UTEC), Lima, Peru, to train undergrad engineering students to participate in advanced research projects starting at the freshman year. Using this methodology, started in 2013, undergrad students at UTEC start taking mandatory engineering semester projects not related to any specific course but addressed...
The rising accessibility and popularity of gambling products has increased interest in the effects of gambling. Nonetheless, research of gambling measures is scarce. This paper presents the application of data mining techniques, on 46,514 gambling sessions, to distinguish types of gambling and identify potential instances of problem gambling in EGMs. Gambling sessions included measures of gambling...
In the industry of email marketing, it is important to send content relevant to the recipient. If the recipients are uninterested they may ignore the email or worse report it as spam. Such actions compromise the ability of the senders to deliver emails to the inboxes of other recipients and permanently harm their relationship with the uninterested recipients. Targeting highly engaged recipients with...
Rapid development of tourism has created major challenges in planning and managing the environment. This is due to the need to provide attractive tourism sites and supporting products such as accommodations and transportation networks as well as protecting the environment. This study used GIS to map and measure land use transformation from 1970s to 2000s and examine areas that are likely to experience...
Abstract-Background: Successful transfer of the results of research projects into practice is of great interest to all project participants. It can be assumed that different transfer mediums fulfill technology transfer (TT) with different levels of success and that they are impaired by different kinds of barriers. Objective: The goal of this study is to gain a better understanding about the different...
Societal changes are forcing us to reconsider how healthcare is delivered. Connected Health, which involves the application of ICT to support healthcare delivery, is an emerging trend in this space. A robust evaluation technique that considers the impact of Connected Health on society is a vital enabler for this growing area. For this reason, we developed an exploratory framework for the evaluation...
We have investigated whether Agile practices can be applied as a pedagogical approach to derive benefit in the areas of encouraging students to take responsibility for their learning (self managed learning), continuous improvement through reflection, alternative approaches for grading, increased engagement by learners, and more effective data collection and assessment of outcomes. Agile is an umbrella...
This paper presents an analysis of star ratings in consumer reviews in Yelp, an online social platform for sharing consumer reviews about local businesses. In particular, we analyze consumer reviews about food businesses. We analyze how well or poorly the star ratings (on a scale of one star to five stars) associated with these reviews tally with the sentiment derived from the textual portion of the...
We propose new families of optimal binary locally repairable codes, called crown codes and ring codes, that achieve optimal code rate for joint information locality (r1, r2)i = (2, 3) and (r1, r2)i = (2, 4), respectively. The joint information locality is a set of numbers of symbols for repairing various erasure patterns of information symbols. We simplify the code design problem utilizing simple...
Graduate Attributes (GAs) in Outcome Based Education (OBE) are the outcomes (of the stake holder especially students) which are to be assessed during their programme of studies. Some of the graduate attributes can be addressed through project based teaching learning process. The indirect assessment approach helps the students to know their strengths and weaknesses in a particular area. The paper presents...
Research is born and brought up in universities and reputed institutions. The engineering education is having significant contribution towards research. Engineers play an important role in development of technologies in all the fields and facilitate them to lay man. This happens only through research. Scientific Research is well disciplined study in order to find the solution, prove a theory or answer...
In today's world of globalization, Indian education system is to be upgraded. The paper focus on the recent literature available related to teaching learning approach. The attempt is to analysis the admission condition in technical institutes due to growth in intake of seats. The fish bone diagram technique is suggested to analysis the root cause of failure, considering student as one of the stakeholders...
