The conventional HCS is a non-linear, dynamic and modeless MPPT strategy. Its principle is based on perturbing the rotor speed and observing its results on output power. The intelligent MPPT is a modified version of the conventional HCS method. Its principle is based on fuzzy logic tool. The performances of the methods are compared based on the mechanical power exctratcted. Simulation of a small-scale wind turbine based on Squirrel Cage Induction Generator (SCIG) allows proving that the intelligent MPPT presents best performances compared to the conventional Hill Climbing Searching (HCS).","PeriodicalId":416459,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Smart City Applications","volume":"102 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117336825","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}

Six machine learning algorithms were evaluated in this research Bayes Network (BN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), k-nearest neighbors algorithm (Knn), Artificial Neural Network (ANN), Decision Tree (C4.5) and Logistic Regression. The simulation of the algorithms is done using the WEKA tool (The Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis) on the Wisconsin breast cancer dataset available in UCI machine learning repository.","PeriodicalId":416459,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Smart City Applications","volume":"248 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115403280","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}

Many difficulties arise in the spatial distribution of an irregular 2D surface. This paper proposes an approach that has the ability to provide for spatial redistribution of a convex or concave n-side polygon/area in a fair way, thus improving the equitable spatial distribution. The proposed approach is based on a computer simulation tool (CST) that supports the process of subdividing polygons into equal parts (SPEP) depending on three different styles: 1) centrally; 2) vertically; 3) horizontally. SPEP is needed for computing the actual polygon area. Furthermore, polygon vertices (coordinates) must be defined geometrically. The SPEP tool has been applied to several different polygons; the practical application has shown an acceptable result, with the prospect of a slight difference in parts that are close to zero (less than 0.01 percent), according to the selected area unit. This is especially seen in concave shapes with angles greater than 180 degrees.","PeriodicalId":416459,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Smart City Applications","volume":"79 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125076175","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 paper is an effort towards identification and then contribution of such support and services that will help in changing the city into a Smart City. Riyadh being the capital city of Saudi Arabia possesses all the government ministries/organizations such as large, Healthcare cities, business and trading companies and other significant statutory figures and thus creates a huge motivation for the necessity of Smart city that allows every single citizen and visitor to connect to this Smart city using their smart devices and perhaps is the easiest approach to get familiar to everything they need. The system allows all the people to have information about the locations of ministries with working hours on different days, public transports details, type of places and whether they are located, indoor or outdoor. The system developed will be able to locate and provide pictures of the locations that the users requested through the services offered through the Smart City interface (SCI).

This survey presented a practical measurement results recorded from a live network of Rwanda using drive testing; with the aim to evaluate the performance of Rwandan mobile network and evaluate the effect of mobility parameter on network throughput. The analysis was based on the three key performance indicators in mobile parameter as Reference Signal Received Power (RSRP), Reference Signal Received Quality (RSRQ) and Received Signal Strength Indicator (RSSI). A measurement of channel quality represented by Signal to interference plus noise ratio (SINR) is used for measuring link adaptation.

The aim of this present work is to give an appropriate model to evaluate the thermal resistance of the heat sink. For optimizing the heat sink dissipation, it is necessary to reduce its thermal resistance as same as improve its cooling capacity because the thermal resistance plays a major role in the total resistance of LED package. In addition, the experimental measurements associated to the LEDs' illuminances and temperatures are made using advanced equipment such as digital luxmeter, and IR camera, respectively, which the results are analyzed by Raycam reporting System software in real time.","PeriodicalId":416459,"journal":{"name":"Proceedings of the 3rd International Conference on Smart City Applications","volume":"35 9","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132835331","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}
