Socket communication is a technology developed on TCP/IP protocols; and it is used throughout this research study for data and information exchange. The communication part is programmed in C#. The paper demonstrates the use of XML messages for all subassemblies to share information and to exchange the product and production information with the factory database. All subassemblies have logics to verify raw material inputs with online accessible product recipes, broadcasted from the central MES, and to reconfigure proper machine settings accordingly. The communication also makes possible use of real-time Lean Kanban to identify a status of works. Kanban mechanism provides flexibility to the autonomous process; it allocates the works to an available subassembly. Data visualization is also exploited in the paper for production technicians to monitor whole subassembly performance, with regard to the availability of information stored in database.","PeriodicalId":422981,"journal":{"name":"2021 Research, Invention, and Innovation Congress: Innovation Electricals and Electronics (RI2C)","volume":"44 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132741981","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 solid waste data was collected from Bangkok in total of fifty districts between October 2002 and December 2015 to support the decision system for solid waste management and a solid waste controlling promotion guideline. The data was collected with no missing values. Therefore, the filtering is consided with an outlier that it is significantly different from the group or divergent from the other data values. The Z-score is used to measure a score's relationship with the mean value in a group of scores. An ANFIS model and data analysis have been investigated and performed using MATLAB.

It is essential to deal with water resource management urgently. In this article, researchers mainly focus on monitoring the water quality in the Lam Pa Thao dam, Chaiyaphum, Thailand. The farmer in that area directly affected by the water quality in the dam because they raise fish in floating fish cages. To prevent losses from fish farming, they should have the ability to monitor and control the factors that affect the water quality. As a result, the farmer can monitor the water quality and the monitor system can report to the farmer in time. In this case, to monitor the water quality, researchers designed the buoys, which is the internet of things device, to collect data from the Lam Pa Thao dam. researchers collected the water quality data from January - March 2021, including 13,608 instances. The five important parameters were obtained, including dissolved oxygen, temperature, pH, total dissolved solids, and electric conductivity. Due to the number of parameters, researchers decided not to apply dimension reduction. In these experiments, researchers proposed using K-means clustering algorithms to group the water data into appropriate clusters. For the K-Means algorithm, we calculated the silhouette coefficient to analyze the effectiveness of cluster separation. The best cluster that was grouped using the K-means algorithm achieved the silhouette score of 0.6839. Furthermore, researchers evaluated the K-means algorithm on Charles river and Fitzroy river datasets. It obtained the silhouette score of 0.5489 and 0.6589, respectively.","PeriodicalId":422981,"journal":{"name":"2021 Research, Invention, and Innovation Congress: Innovation Electricals and Electronics (RI2C)","volume":"39 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-09-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127841308","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 realized gains are 3.7 dB, 5.7dB, and 8.4dB respectively. The Wilkinson power divider is used to feed the array elements. It divides the input power equally between the radiating patches while providing good isolation. Furthermore, it provide a broadband performance covering a wide frequency range. The designed arrays provide a good impedance matching and directional radiation patterns. The axial ratios (AR) are below 3 dB level within the operating bandwidth.

The input source in this structure can be a fuel cell or photovoltaic panel. The controller used is based on an indirect sliding model in which the input current is adjusted for each module, and the output capacitors are balanced in voltage. For this, two sliding surfaces for current and two sliding surfaces for voltage are used. The studied system is simulated with the help of MATLAB/Simulink software. The performance of the studied system with and without the presence of a voltage controller is studied. The importance of the voltage controller and its effect on capacitor voltages is demonstrated.
