In the HMVOSCA algorithm, the new position updating mechanism of the traditional MVO method is modified based on the sine function and cosine function which is taken from the Sine Cosine Algorithm (SCA). Moreover, an average position is chosen by computing the mean between the current position and the current best position obtained so far. These modifications are mainly for balancing exploration and exploitation and escaping from local optima and expected better identification accuracy of the DPOC plant. In the Hammerstein model identification, a continuous-time linear subsystem is used, which is more suitable for representing any real plant. The HMVOSCA algorithm is used to tune the linear and nonlinear parameters to reduce the gap between the estimated results and the actual results. The efficiency of the proposed HMVOSCA algorithm is evaluated using the convergence curve, parameter estimation error, bode plot, function plot, and Wilcoxon's test method. The experimental findings illustrate that the HMVOSCA algorithm can identify a Hammerstein model that generates an estimated output like the actual DPOC system output. Moreover, the identified results also show that the HMVOSCA algorithm outperforms other existing metaheuristics algorithms.","PeriodicalId":6762,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 19th Student Conference on Research and Development (SCOReD)","volume":"18 1","pages":"212-217"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"87637719","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}

Two types of OWC are used to harvest the wave power, fixed and floating OWC. Wave energy can certainly be converted and used more or less directly to perform mechanical work. Energy from the wave can be generated using various technologies that capture energy from the surface wave or pressure fluctuation below the surface. At present, less study has been conducted on OWC devices at low wave height. Thus, this paper presents a numerical study on the current OWC device at a low wave height lower than 2.25m. The OWC performance is determined using Computational Fluid Dynamic (CFD) software to identify the device efficiency. Autodesk Inventor is used to designing the OWC device, referring to the floating and fixed design. Then these designs are imported into CFD software to simulate and to obtain the energy extraction result. The CFD software is chosen to simulate the hydrodynamics problem. The devices are scale to1:20 and 1:16 ratio respectively. Three different wave height(0.25m,0.75m,2.25m) are used. The final study on pressure at air duct, pressure flow from the chamber to the air duct, the velocity of the air and power estimation have been carried out.

This paper proposes a contactless tool for COVID-19 surveillance that integrates all the 3 processes into one. The system carries out each stage in sequential order for every person, starting with checking temperature, dispensing hand sanitizer, and lastly data profiling record. The temperature is done using infrared thermometry that automatically adjusts to forehead height. Hand sanitizer is automatically dispensed when hands are detected under the pump. Image processing and optical character recognition are used to capture the name and contact number that will be shown on a tag carried by the individual and saved to the database. The process is contactless and requires no human operator, and yields accurate temperature data, works as intended while demonstrating high accuracy and speed in extracting information with optical character recognition.","PeriodicalId":6762,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 19th Student Conference on Research and Development (SCOReD)","volume":"33 1","pages":"52-57"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79339869","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}

Most of the parking lots operate on a manual parking system, in which vehicles enter the lot, obtain a ticket from a machine at the entrance gate, look for an available slot, pay for parking at a counter, and insert the paid ticket into a machine at the exit gate. These actions can be carried out using a mobile application. Numerous studies have analysed the methodologies employed in smart parking systems; however, the majority of research has not addressed mobile applications in detail. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate how to construct a mobile application using Android Studio. The end user must register and log in to this programme, select a vacant slot to reserve, specify the period of his or her parking, and make a payment. The application was evaluated on a real device, and 28 end user participants evaluated the booking application and provided feedback and recommendations via a Google form. 85.7 percent of respondents believed that parking should be classified. Additionally, 100% of participants indicated that they preferred using an e-Wallet as a payment option. In terms of the booking application itself, 85.7 percent of participants said it was simple to use, while 14.3 percent said it was average.","PeriodicalId":6762,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 19th Student Conference on Research and Development (SCOReD)","volume":"6 1","pages":"290-294"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82943515","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}

Due to the shutdown of these sectors, many people have become jobless and even worst, the virus has stolen many lives. For people to continue living in this pandemic, these sectors need to be operated. Thus, it is an urge for everyone to comply with the Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) recommended by the World Health Organization (WHO). Recently, as the number of COVID-19 cases is showing a declining trend, many sectors have started to operate with strict SOP compliance. Nevertheless, to maintain the social distancing among people in business premises is quite challenging. As people move and mobile in the premise, it is very challenging for the premise authority to monitor and maintain social distancing among people. In addition, the increasing number of visitors may lead to contact tracing process to become more complicated. Thus, an automated approach in monitoring social distancing among people is needed. Therefore, this study proposes a system to monitor social distancing using the You Only Look Once (YOLO) algorithm. This study implements Software Development Life Cycle (SDLC) as the methodology. The developed social distance monitoring and notifying system will benefit the public and the government to comply with the SOP.","PeriodicalId":6762,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 19th Student Conference on Research and Development (SCOReD)","volume":"29 1","pages":"422-426"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77101089","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}

Numerous techniques and modifications have been made to numerical meta-heuristic algorithms in the literature in order to enable them to operate in a discrete search space. This paper presents modifications to measurement and estimation in SKF to accommodate the discrete search space. The modified algorithm is called Discrete Simulated Kalman Filter Optimizer (DSKFO).

This article investigates the current challenges to success EMs in power plants, identifies the critical success factors (CSFs), and develops an intelligent framework that enables power plants to improve performance. The theoretical basis is founded on a systematic literature review to locate 159 out of 590 papers studied carefully to examine the CSFs of EMs architecture. The outcome of the literature combined with expert judgment to develop an intelligent model. Data are collected from a power plant in Iraq. To ensure the reliability model, various hypotheses are tested. The results confirm that the measurement model is acceptable and that the hypotheses are supported and significant. A case study demonstrates the strong relationship and significance between the integration intelligent of CSFs and the success of EMs. This research reveals perceptions of future research gaps on the academic level and the lack of consistency and balance in the current studies that indicate that the EMs strategy in production plants has not received sufficient attention and needs more investigations.","PeriodicalId":6762,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 19th Student Conference on Research and Development (SCOReD)","volume":"31 1","pages":"140-145"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74328787","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}

Non Volatile Memory(NVM) has emerged as a promising technology in meeting this challenge as possible on-chip memories due to its very high density and low leakage powers. Compared to other NVMs, Spin Transfer Torque Magnetic RAM(STTMRAM) has better endurance, lower latency values, and desired asymmetricity in the read & write operations. It is of immense importance that the suitability of using STTMRAM as a Level 1 cache with different design optimization strategies is properly explored. In this paper, we study the power and execution time of the design strategies that optimize read & write latency, dynamic energy, and energy-delay product(EDP). We seek the opportunity to study the performance of these design optimizations against specific memory intense workloads. The first part of our study compares the performance improvement of these design optimizations against SRAM memories. In the second part, we explore regular cache features like block size and associativity variations. Our study reveals that write dynamic energy optimizations have very low static power dissipation; read/write latency optimizations have the best latency values but relatively poor static power dissipation values. Energy-delay product optimization is found to be an optimal solution. The design space exploration carried out offers insight into developing novel application-specific memory systems and motivates research in circuit-level optimizations for future architectures.","PeriodicalId":6762,"journal":{"name":"2021 IEEE 19th Student Conference on Research and Development (SCOReD)","volume":"15 1","pages":"317-322"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-11-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"75767134","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}
