This is done by eliminating data that are visually unnecessary and taking advantage of redundancy that is inherent in most images. Image compression plays a critical role in telemetric applications. Image compression involves reducing the typically massive amount of data to represent an image. This is done by eliminating data that are visually unnecessary and taking advantage of redundancy that is inherent in most images. It is desired that either single image or sequences of images be transmitted over computer networks at large distances so as that they could be used for a multitude of purposes. Image compression is essential for applications such as transmission and storage in databases. It aims to reduce the bit rate for transmission or storage while maintaining an acceptable fidelity or a good image quality.","PeriodicalId":15747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering sciences and information technology","volume":"31 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72903483","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The basic idea in real- time systems is the execution of a set of tasks that are assigned to CPUs, within a time constraint associated with each of them, and this time constraint is called a deadline. Task scheduling in real- time systems is the main factor in determining the success or failure of the system. Therefore, many studies have imposed suggestions and hypotheses for improving scheduling, according to the underlined platform, whether it is single- processor, multi- processor, or multi- core processor. Researchers have recently focused on studying and providing solutions to scheduling problems, taking into account energy consumption since energy consumption today plays an important role in determining the efficiency and reliability of the system. Energy consumption can be saved either statically by turning the processor into sleep mode or dynamically by changing the frequency of the processor cores and thus reducing power consumption. However, a slight increase in frequency leads to executing more tasks in less time and thus can lead to an increase in the efficiency of the real- time system by reducing tasks which may miss its deadline at the time of execution. In this research, a new method has been proposed to control the processor frequency in an optimal manner that makes a balanced trade- off between power consumption and execution of tasks in real- time systems.","PeriodicalId":15747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering sciences and information technology","volume":"5 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-06-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89350285","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The coupling between electrocoagulation and the addition of the activated carbon showed that the addition of an appropriate dosage resulted in the enhancement of the removal rate of Nitrate and Nitrite especially at lower current densities, and resulted in a considerable reduction in the needed time compared to the conventional process that does not use activated carbon. The electrocoagulation with the addition of activated carbon achieved efficiency removal of approximately 58.5% for Nitrate and 98.9% for Nitrite. Based on the high removal efficiency, short contact time, and low energy consumption, the electrocoagulation with the addition of activated carbon method could be recommended instead of the conventional process. Furthermore, the results suggest that the productivity of the process is enhanced by adding a very small amount of NaCl as a supporting electrolyte.","PeriodicalId":15747,"journal":{"name":"Journal of engineering sciences and information technology","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-03-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"88742943","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, it was necessary to monitor measure and analyze urban sprawl and land-use maps’ change, in order to prioritize planning policies and solutions necessary to be addressed. This situation attracted more attention and modern and advanced studies using geographic information systems and remote sensing techniques, which proved to a large extent to be an effective and valuable tool for monitoring and evaluating urban sprawl over a period of time. There are several measures and methods used to determine the changes of land use and to measure the urban sprawl of cities; However, many of them suffer from many limitations and difficulty in accessing data for its application.
