The C++17 standard introduced the Parallel STL library, a parallel extension of the original and fundamental Standard Template Library (STL) with the promise to achieve safe, efficient, and scalable parallel programming in an easy way. While the syntax remained familiar, the new parallel algorithms introduced additional requirements, which are often ignored even by experienced programmers. In this paper, we investigate the root cause of the misuse of the Parallel STL. We carried out a classroom experiment to measure the programmers’ behaviour when programming using the Parallel STL and found that the major issue is not that their code would be erroneous, but the lack of awareness of the semantic requirements of parallel functors. While a fully automatic detection of erroneous constructs is computationally infeasible to achieve, we introduce a framework with which the developer will be able to indicate – axiomatically, based on absolute trust – that an operation has “safe” properties required by the algorithms. We implemented a prototype of the proposed framework to demonstrate its usability and effectiveness.","PeriodicalId":31657,"journal":{"name":"Acta Electrotechnica et Informatica","volume":"23 1","pages":"19 - 27"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47881478","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 production process modeling and simulation can be used to facilitate flexibility and automation of a shop floor. In our previous research, we have created a Domain-Specific Modeling Language (DSML) named MultiProLan, aiming to create production process models suitable for the automatic generation of executable code that enables the automatic execution of production processes. As the next step, we have proposed research on a DSML language aimed at Industry 4.0 human worker modeling. Industry 4.0 still considers workers as a cost, while favoring technological aspects over the workers’ wellbeing. Industry 5.0 complements Industry 4.0, focusing on a human-centric approach that puts core human needs and interests at the top of production processes. Based on our research proposal, here we present a blueprint of the HResModLan DSML prototype aimed at the formal specification of a human worker within Industry 5.0. Presented abstract and concrete syntaxes of the language are tested on a case study of a furniture factory to demonstrate whether they are a good base for the further development of the HResModLan language.","PeriodicalId":31657,"journal":{"name":"Acta Electrotechnica et Informatica","volume":"23 1","pages":"33 - 40"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48229731","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}

Currently, research on IoT anomaly detection in Software-Defined Networking (SDN) relies only on the control plane. In this study, we aim to detect IoT anomalies by covering the advantages of the control and data plane. First, we collected real-time network telemetry data from the data plane based on the capabilities of the P4. Then, using this telemetry data, we built different anomaly detection models and compared their performance. Among them, the one-Dimensional Convolutional Neural Network (1D CNN) model classified our data best and showed the highest performance, so we proposed this model for IoT anomaly detection on the control plane. To our knowledge, our approach is the first solution that integrates the control plane and data plane for IoT anomaly detection. Finally, when evaluating the performance of our proposed 1D CNN model, the accuracy, F1 score, and Matthews correlation coefficient (MCC) are the same or better than existing studies.","PeriodicalId":31657,"journal":{"name":"Acta Electrotechnica et Informatica","volume":"23 1","pages":"3 - 12"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47639872","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}

Considering the fact that increasing the transmission capabilities of electrical networks by building new lines is a time and financially demanding process, network operators strive to use the transmission capacities of existing lines as much as possible. One of the possibilities of this maximum use of existing capacities is the application of the calculation of the dynamic ampacity of the lines, when the operators of electric networks know how to determine the maximum load capacity of the lines depending on the current climatic conditions. The presented publication presents a methodology for determining the dynamic ampacity of overhead power lines under different climatic conditions with the subsequent application of this methodology to a specific conductor used in the implementation of overhead transmission lines.","PeriodicalId":31657,"journal":{"name":"Acta Electrotechnica et Informatica","volume":"23 1","pages":"28 - 32"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-06-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46363438","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}

Turbine´s efficiency calculation is analytically demanding and dependent on parameters that are often obtained only by a theoretical estimation. Therefore, using its accurate model, which takes into account its efficiency, is necessary to achieve realistic and relevant results. The article briefly surveys current knowledge and methods of designing the hydraulic turbine model. The new idea consists in that a fuzzy system was used to create turbine´s efficiency model based on a measured operating data of the turbine flow rate and its mechanical speed without any need of knowing exactly the turbine parameters. Such a model can be used in the design and development process of an optimal energy control of a hydraulic turbine, as well as in the effective process of determination the actual turbine’s wear rate. The achieved results were obtained using the computational tools of the Fuzzy Toolbox in the MATLAB.","PeriodicalId":31657,"journal":{"name":"Acta Electrotechnica et Informatica","volume":"23 1","pages":"25 - 31"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44794191","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}

A real sensor is then manufactured from a polycrystalline transformer sheet and experimentally tested by using a tensile load created by water weight. The simulation and experiment show similar behavior but are not completely identical which is most likely since some material properties were taken from literature rather than from experimental measurements, like the magnetostriction coefficient and initial magnetic susceptibility.","PeriodicalId":31657,"journal":{"name":"Acta Electrotechnica et Informatica","volume":"23 1","pages":"11 - 17"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46655301","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}
