Abstract

The study of software engineering professional practices includes the use of the formal methodology in a software development. Identifying the appropriate methodology will not only reduce the failure of software but will also help to deliver the software in accordance with the predetermined budget and schedule. In literature, few works have been developed a tool for prediction of the most appropriate methodology for the specific software project. In this paper, a method for selecting an appropriate software development life cycle (SDLC) model based on a ranking manner from the highest to the lowest scoring is presented. The selection and ranking of appropriate SDLC elaborate the related SDLC’s critical factors, these factors are given different weights according to the SDLC, then these weights are used by the proposed mathematical method. The proposed approach has been extensively experimented on a dataset by software practitioners who are working in the software industry. Experimental results show that, the proposed method represents an applicable tool in predicting and ranking suitable SDLC models on various types of projects, such as: life-critical systems, commercial uses systems, and entertainment applications.

Abstract

Real-time inspections for the large-scale solar system may take a long time to get the hazard situations for any failures that may take place in the solar panels normal operations, where prior hazards detection is important. Reducing the execution time and improving the system’s performance are the ultimate goals of multiprocessing or multicore systems. Real-time video processing and analysis from two camcorders, thermal and charge-coupling devices (CCD), mounted on a drone compose the embedded system being proposed for solar panels inspection. The inspection method needs more time for capturing and processing the frames and detecting the faulty panels. The system can determine the longitude and latitude of the defect position information in real-time. In this work, we investigate parallel processing for the image processing operations which reduces the processing time for the inspection systems. The results show a super-linear speedup for real-time condition monitoring in large-scale solar systems. Using the multiprocessing module in Python, we execute fault detection algorithms using streamed frames from both video cameras. The experimental results show a super-linear speedup for thermal and CCD video processing, the execution time is efficiently reduced with an average of 3.1 times and 6.3 times using 2 processes and 4 processes respectively.

Abstract

In deep learning, dataset plays a main role in training and getting accurate results of detection and recognition objects in an image. Any training model needs a large size of dataset to be more accurate, where improving the dataset size is one of the most research problems that needs enhancement. In this paper, an image compression approach was developed to reduce the dataset size and improve classification accuracy for the trained model using a convolutional neural network (CNN), and speeds up the machine learning process, while maintaining image quality. The results revealed that the best scenario for deep learning models that provided good and acceptable classification accuracy was one that had the following parameters: 80×80 image size, 10 epochs, 64 batch size, 40 images dataset quality (images compressed 60%), and gray image mode. For this scenario a Dog vs Cat dataset is used, and the training time was 48 minutes, classification accuracy was 86%, and images dataset size was 317 MB on storage device. This size makes up 58% of the size of the original image’s dataset, saves 42% of the storage space and reduces the processing resources consumption.
