First the generalized address space generation scheme for an OPC UA server is described. Afterwards we present the specialized algorithms for the generation of the type nodes, of object and variable nodes and for the method nodes. Finally the additional references are added to the fully meshed address space. Two basic ideas of the algorithms are: the splitting of the nodes into groups and the sequential addition of the groups to the address space, and the naming of a main reference for every target node. The algorithms have been applied for an aggregating UA server which models the devices of a flexible manufacturing system. The main advantages are: shorter development time, easier maintenance and the possibility to add nodes to the address space in both online and offline mode.","PeriodicalId":334381,"journal":{"name":"2011 6th IEEE International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129258569","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}

It provides an elegant way to navigate safely in the presence of obstacles, also taking the dynamic properties of the robot into account. There are different variants of this method, all having the same limitation, namely they use an objective function consisting of weighted terms. Different situations require different weights, however, there is no algorithm for choosing them. An inappropriate weighting can inhibit reaching the goal. This paper presents a navigation scheme based on the idea of dynamic window approach (DWA) and using receding horizon control (RHC). This method uses an objective function that does not contain weights. Kinematic and dynamic constraints of the robot are taken into account and a safe and goal-oriented motion is ensured.","PeriodicalId":334381,"journal":{"name":"2011 6th IEEE International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"41 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115815007","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}

For menu construction and dietary analysis, there are several approaches (e.g., linear programming, genetic algorithms, rule-based expert systems, etc.) and commercial IT systems. In this paper, we propose a case-based approach for diet recommendation. Based on this approach, we are going to construct an expert system which is intended to be employed in a health record management system. Our approach is based on ripple down rules (RDR), however, a special representation is also needed for patient attributes and rule actions.","PeriodicalId":334381,"journal":{"name":"2011 6th IEEE International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116746949","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}

All mobile phones have a lot of common features, but their individual style or design, and special functions make these devices salable. However there is an important accessory - the charger - which does the same task to reach the same goal from the beginning, but on a wide range of implementation. A few years ago, GSMA (in partnership with the leading manufacturers) started a program to achieve a brand independent standard for a Universal Charging Solution (UCS) for new mobile phones. This paper will try to analyze this ongoing procedure from the aspect of System Engineering, using SIMILAR. It presents the compatibility and ecodesign problems to solve or reduce with UCS, introduces the main parts of the standard, investigates some alternative conceptions, and describes the connection possibilities to other systems. It also explains the current status of the project, the expected influences and gives some proposals to the future.","PeriodicalId":334381,"journal":{"name":"2011 6th IEEE International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"15 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123006729","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}

From a large multitude of possible optimum control laws, the relation between the current and the voltage of the DC-DC converter was considered for control law. This relation - control law, was expressed by a regression function, using the experimental obtained DC-DC converter (HDC from Fig.1) current-voltage pairs VHDC, IHDC.

Network level simulation is particularly recommended before deployment as it allows error detections in early stages and predicts the network's behavior. This paper proposes a method to generate specifications for OMNeT++ simulation environment from UML models using a Profile for PSoC distributed applications. The Profile allows the developer to assign each hardware component a specific behavior based on the application specifications. The behavior can be later used as input for simulation and, after validation as input for application deployment.","PeriodicalId":334381,"journal":{"name":"2011 6th IEEE International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"34 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129827109","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}

We will try to present some key anomaly detection methods applicable in the data mining process. Some methods are existing techniques as the DBSCAN algorithm and some have just been presented to the public recently and could be the answer to future anomaly detection development. One example is the filtering-and-refinement approach, a new general two stage technique for more efficient and effective anomaly detection. This paper will try to illustrate the strengths and weaknesses of the classical techniques presented but as we will see the results are completely dependent on the data sets that are analyzed. We will emphasize on efficiency, robustness and accuracy. We will also try to demonstrate a hybrid approach obtained by combining the filtering-and-refinement method with the DBSCAN algorithm. In our experiments we pursued to compare the performance of the normal DBSCAN algorithm with the performance of the hybrid one. Our results indicate that the hybrid method is more accurate in terms of detecting anomalies and far superior in terms of speed than the normal DBSCAN algorithm.","PeriodicalId":334381,"journal":{"name":"2011 6th IEEE International Symposium on Applied Computational Intelligence and Informatics (SACI)","volume":"70 5 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-05-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129880468","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}
