It is not a surprising fact, given how many business owners don’t know where to begin, and for many, it is still too difficult or expensive. However, having a website alone isn’t enough for a small business to attract customers. They must also ensure that customers can find them online when looking for local businesses and services. MOPP (Modest Online Price Publisher) can help with this. By establishing a single platform on which retailers can easily display their pricing, consumers will have a one-stop shop to search up and compare costs.","PeriodicalId":166950,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Computer Science and Data Engineering (CSDE)","volume":"20 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129737870","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 fundamental enactment used to indict cybercrimes is the Crimes Decree 2009 alongside other applicable enactment, for example, the Copyright Act 1999 and other auxiliary enactments. Fiji Legislations experiences an assortment of shortcomings concerning absence of capacity to deal with the unpredictable and differed cybercrimes, absence of least guidelines and trouble in doing fruitful indictments.

However, due to the intermittent nature of wind and solar, massive integration of such kinds of DG might cause severe problems, such as greater power loss, reduced power quality, and system efficiency. The integration of energy storage systems (ESS) provides an effective way to handle the above issues due to its capability of stabilizing voltage and frequency. Hence, it is necessary to optimally allocate the ESS to exert maximum support on the distribution network. This paper presents an approach for optimal allocation of ESS to improve voltage profile and reduce power losses and line loading in the unbalanced distribution system. The proposed methodology is tested on an unbalanced medium voltage IEEE-33 bus system with higher wind and PV generation. DIgSILENT PowerFactory is used for constructing and testing the system model. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed approach in improving the power quality and system efficiency of unbalanced distribution systems.","PeriodicalId":166950,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Computer Science and Data Engineering (CSDE)","volume":"PP 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126640418","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 new transmission conditions include a free parameter whose value should be chosen in an appropriate way in order to get the best convergence result. In all previous work on OWR for transmission line type circuits, the analysis for finding such value of the free parameter was performed at the continuous level in which any impact of the temporal discretization is neglected. However, it is more realistic to perform the analysis at the discrete level for real computations in a computer when solving time dependant problems. Therefore, choosing transmission line type circuits as our model problem, we perform in this paper the analysis for finding the value of the free parameter appears in the transmission conditions at the discrete level and we study the resulting convergence behavior of the discrete OWR algorithm.

The initial process deals with capturing the meal figures from all the customer airlines and distributing the information to the kitchen staff for meal preparation. The study evaluates the processes involved in the data collection phase and relates them to efficiency and productivity and as well as identifies the issues faced by the staff. It is evident that even though technology is used in the data collection phase; the effectiveness is not visible as human intervention is still necessary to collect, consolidate and distribute the information. Multiple sources of information are also another contributing factor that limits efficiency. Given that the means of communication are through emails, phone calls and, text messages; constant checking and verification is required which results in unnecessary time consumption and is prone to human error. This further delays in communicating the information to the ground staff thus limiting efficiency and affecting timely preparation of meals and adjusting to amendments. A software solution is proposed that will be able to handle the current data collection and distribution phase. The software can be used by the organization and the customer airlines as a standard means for communicating meal figures. This approach will mitigate the factor of consolidating and distributing the meal figures to the ground staff thus increasing efficiency and optimizing the business process to achieve the organizational objective.","PeriodicalId":166950,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Computer Science and Data Engineering (CSDE)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130345453","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}

In such a case, an eye-controlled wheelchair can be utilized as it functions to facilitate mobility assistance for paralyzed or elderly individuals with limited movements within their natural environment. Objective: This study aimed to analyze the relationship between the efficiency and quality-of-life of the subjects after using the eye-controlled wheelchair. Method: This case study is participated by 2 paraplegic neurological disorder patients from a local home-care setting. To achieve the research aim, online questionnaires via Google Form were administered verbally after the researcher’s eye-controlled wheelchair usage and subjects’ feedback was filled. The total workload needed for wheelchair usage was measured using the NASA-TLX tool, and, a self-designed questionnaire was developed and validated (face and content validation) before the commencement of the study to measure subjective quality-of-life. Results: In this research, it is found that low exhaustion levels were achieved as a result of low subjective workload when using the eye-controlled wheelchair. Plus, there was a positive correlation between quality-of-life and total subjective workload. Conclusion: The eye-controlled wheelchair is efficient to use and demonstrated that there is a positive impact on paraplegic patients’ quality-of-life to a certain extent even for short-term usage.","PeriodicalId":166950,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE Asia-Pacific Conference on Computer Science and Data Engineering (CSDE)","volume":"5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-12-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128703388","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}

KT can be utilised to understand each student’s distinct learning style, particular needs, and ability levels. We trained and evaluated the performance of Knowledge Tracing models on the ASSISTments dataset and EdNet-KT1 dataset. This study revealed that deep learning models for knowledge tracing (Deep Knowledge Tracing (DKT), Dynamic Key-Value Memory Network (DKVMN), and Attentive Knowledge Tracing (AKT)) outperform the Markov process model (Bayesian Knowledge Tracing).
