Mechanical ventilators that mimic gas exchange between the respiratory system organs and the atmosphere using different methods are critical medical care devices that allow the patient to maintain respiratory functions. In this study, a mechanical ventilator prototype was developed for use in transferring intensive care infants between medical institutions. The ventilator prototype is designed to be used as a CPAP (Continuous Positive Airway Pressure) device for neonatal resuscitation if desired. Prototyping work has been carried out taking into account the safety precautions and sensitivity parameters specified in the relevant standards of the neonatal ventilators. The ventilator can be able to operate with pressure and volume control.","PeriodicalId":357613,"journal":{"name":"2018 6th International Conference on Control Engineering & Information Technology (CEIT)","volume":"25 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122981752","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}

Effort estimation remains a very difficult task since the software requirements are not well known and understood/or the details have not yet been specified. Thus, most of software effort estimation models are built on using historical project data. For this purpose, CBR based prediction models have been extensively used. In CBR techniques, choosing the most similar case has a strong impact on the prediction accuracy, nevertheless, it remains a hard task especially on the presence of alternatives projects; projects that are equally similar. This paper proposed a new method to select the most appropriate case by using ant colony optimization algorithm. The ACO algorithm will be used to search for the best case of past cases based on the different features similarity values (FR_similarity, NFRs_similarity and DPs_similarity). To verify the efficiency and performance of the proposed model, an example was conducted and the results were compared with that of the real estimation. The results of the example show that proposed model in this paper is an attractive alternative to retrieve the most appropriate case and is useful and beneficial for decision making during the effort estimation.","PeriodicalId":357613,"journal":{"name":"2018 6th International Conference on Control Engineering & Information Technology (CEIT)","volume":"51 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123644324","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}

This situation may be challenging especially for the system analysis in process control. As long as the condition that the system should be decoupled is met, control problems to be investigated for this kind of systems become meaningful. This study deals with the design of non-interacting dynamic diagonal controllers for two-input two-output systems. Here, it is aimed to obtain the needed filter for decoupling and then to design the controller to satisfy the necessary specifications. The decoupling filter and controller design procedure for disturbance attenuation and reference tracking is defined via general control configuration. Here, the main objective of the study is to keep the system decoupled where an optimal controller is designed to increase the reference tracking and disturbance attenuation performance of the overall closed loop system. The efficiency and success of the proposed method is illustrated via simulation studies.","PeriodicalId":357613,"journal":{"name":"2018 6th International Conference on Control Engineering & Information Technology (CEIT)","volume":"61 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116590048","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 first propose an extension to attitude tracking control design using quaternion based backstepping procedure from attitude stabilization. Next, we develop an original integral backstepping control law for UAV attitude tracking. The proposed control includes an integral term that improves tracking performances and provides better disturbance rejection. The obtained control law contains a proportional, a derivative and an integral terms so that it is a PID like nonlinear controller. Both quaternion based controllers allow passing through singularities usually caused by Euler angles representation. Global asymptotic stability of the closed loop system is proved for both controllers via systematic constructive Lyapunov functions. Simulations results with Matlab-Simulink for stabilization, tracking, robustness tests and singularities avoidance are given for each controller. Finally, experimental results are validated in real-time on the Quanser 3 degree of freedom (DOF) Hover test bench and show the efficiency of the integral backstepping controller and the quaternion superior performances.","PeriodicalId":357613,"journal":{"name":"2018 6th International Conference on Control Engineering & Information Technology (CEIT)","volume":"28 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115020151","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 addition, the lack of a manageable and flexible structure poses an important problem in WBANs. The software-defined network (SDN) approach suggests a new network architecture that is simple, flexible, and manageable and has less workload. This approach is considered to be a solution to the above-mentioned problems of the WBAN architecture. In this context, WBAN architecture based on SDN approach, a new network approach for WBANs, is proposed in this paper.A controller as SDN control unit is responsible for all network-related management and control operations in WBANs. This unit effectively and efficiently manages all the wireless communication processes necessary for the coordinator nodes to communicate with each other and with the controller. The throughput and end-to-end delay results of the proposed architecture are examined for the performance analysis. The results show that the proposed network architecture improves the performance of the traditional WBANs structure and simplifies the control and management processes.","PeriodicalId":357613,"journal":{"name":"2018 6th International Conference on Control Engineering & Information Technology (CEIT)","volume":"2 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115441120","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}

This required changing and understanding consumers’ awareness, behavior, and increasing their knowledge in the subject of energy use. Providing that households are conscious about electricity consumption and studying factors affecting them can help to reduce energy consumption in residential areas.
