Abstract

Automatic extraction of brachial artery and measuring associated indices such as flow-mediated dilatation and Intima-media thickness are important for early detection of cardiovascular disease and other vascular endothelial malfunctions. In this paper, we propose the basic but important component of such decision-assisting medical software development – noise tolerant fully automatic segmentation of brachial artery from ultrasound images. Pixel clustering with Fuzzy C-Means algorithm in the quantization process is the key component of that segmentation with various image processing algorithms involved. This algorithm could be an alternative choice of segmentation process that can replace speckle noise-suffering edge detection procedures in this application domain.

Abstract

Energy consumption in cloud computing occur due to the unreasonable way in which tasks are scheduled. So energy aware task scheduling is a major concern in cloud computing as energy consumption results into significant waste of energy, reduce the profit margin and also high carbon emissions which is not environmentally sustainable. Hence, energy efficient task scheduling solutions are required to attain variable resource management, live migration, minimal virtual machine design, overall system efficiency, reduction in operating costs, increasing system reliability, and prompting environmental protection with minimal performance overhead. This paper provides a comprehensive overview of the energy efficient techniques and approaches and proposes the energy aware resource utilization framework to control traffic in cloud networks and overloads.

Abstract

Small and Medium Scale Enterprises in India are the most productive job designers and forerunners in developing new ideas in the field of business. SMEs not only play a vital role in providing large scale employment openings at reasonably lower capital than large businesses but also help in industrialization of rural areas in India. SMEs are complementary to large industries as subsidiary units and this sector contributes immensely to the socio-economic development of the country. Small and Medium scale industries have grown tremendously in the last 5 decades. In spite of high enthusiasm and intrinsic capabilities to grow, there are a number of problems faced by SME‟s; one of them is the „technological obsolescence‟. The SME sector in order to outcome this challenge must make advances in the field of engineering and technology. Adoption of Information Communication Technology in their business process can enhance their productivity and global competency.in the market. In this connection Enterprise Resource Planning plays a vital role in the SME‟s business process strategy. Hence there is a need for the motivation to implement ERP and find whether the current ICT solution the industries using are adequate for their strategy. In this paper we try to find out which ERP vendors does the SME sectors prefer, are the features of the ERP system and the implementation methodology selected have met the business goals and user satisfaction.

Abstract

The paper proposed power quality enhancement on three phase grid of point common coupling (PCC) bus due to integration of multi units of photovoltaic (PV) to 380 volt (phase-phase) 50 Hz low voltage distribution network under variable temperature and irradiance level. The band pass filter models (single tuned and double tuned) were installed to improvement power quality on the conditions i.e. without filter, with single tuned filter, and with double tuned filter. Multi units of PV generator without filter, with single tuned, and with double tuned filter at all temperatures and irradiance levels resulted in relatively stable phase voltage (308 and 310 volt), so able to generate an unbalanced voltage of 0%. The maximum phase current for the system without filter at all temperatures and radiation levels of 9.8, 12.5, and 10 ampere respectively, resulted in an unbalanced current of 16.10% . Under the same condition, single tuned and double tuned filters were able to balance phase current to 10.45 A and 10.44 ampere respectively, resulting in an unbalanced current of 0%. Implementation of single tuned and double tuned filters was able to reduce unbalance current according to ANSI/IEEE 241-1990. At constant temperature and irradiance increased, both average voltage and current harmonics also increased. Double tuned active filter was the most effective to suppress the 11th and 13th harmonics so that capable to migitate average voltage and current harmonics better than system using single tuned filter which could only reduce 5th harmonic within IEEE 519-1992.

Abstract

Service request scheduling has a major impact on the performance of the service processing design in a large-scale distributed computing environment like cloud systems. It is desirable to have a service request scheduling principle that evenly distributes the workload among the servers, according to their capacities. The capacities of the servers are termed high or low relative to one another. Therefore, there is a need to quantify the server capacity to overcome this subjective assessment. Subsequently, a method to split and distribute the service requests based on this quantified server capacity is also needed. The novelty of this research paper is to address these requirements by devising a service request scheduling principle for a heterogeneous distributed system using appropriate statistical methods, namely Conjoint analysis and Z-score. Suitable experiments were conducted and the experimental results show considerable improvement in the performance of the designed service request scheduling principle compared to a few other existing principles. Areas of further improvement have also been identified and presented.

Abstract

The generated electrical power in present days is not able to meet its end-user requirement as power demand is gradually increasing and expected to be increasing more in future days. In the power quality management, the parameters/factors like harmonic currents (HC) and reactive power (RP) yields the major issues in the power distribution units causing transformer heating, line losses, and machine vibration. To overcome these issues, several control mechanisms have been presented and implemented in recent past. The control algorithm based on synchronous reference frame (SRF) offers a better response by dividing the HC and RP. But the SRF based control algorithm requires better synchronization among the utility voltage and input current. To achieve this, the existing researches have used digital signal processing (DSP) and microcontroller, but these systems fail to provide better performance as they face issues like limited sampling time, less accuracy, and high computational complexity. Thus, to enhance the performance of active power filter (APF), we present an FPGA based approach. Also, to validate the performance of the proposed approach, we have used Xilinx 14.7 and Modelsim (6.3f) simulator and compared with other previous work. From the results analysis, it is found that the approach has good performance.

Abstract

All industrial drives need a controlled output and it can be achieved by controlling the input supply. In this regard, the inverter circuit plays an important role in the applications of industrial drives. The industrial drives are operated at high rated power and the conventional inverters cannot be applicable for high power demands because of the large dV/dt (rate of change of voltage) and more switching losses. Therefore, multilevel inverters are introduced for high power-medium voltage applications. For all AC drives the MLIs are reliable in operation. This MLI topology also reduces the harmonics and bearings stress of a motor with low dV/dt. In most applications multilevel inverters are used because we can get more number of voltage levels. To increase the number of voltage levels, circuit needs to have more switches. But, we have to optimize the switch count and switching operations. The power level of the inverter is limited due to high currents and stress. In this paper, we proposed a new circuit topology which enables the switches to be active at different voltage levels, causes reduction of the switching losses and also increases the efficiency of the inverter. In this we have presented two configurations for an eleven level MLI for three phase induction motor drive application. In this an individual DC source is connected for each bridge circuit of each phase in one configuration and only one common DC link is used for three phases in another configuration. With this the size, cost and complexity could be decreased. In both the configurations the controlled output of the inverter is connected to the induction motor drive. The circuits are modeled using Matlab/simulink software and corresponding output waveforms are analyzed for both configurations.

Abstract

This article investigates solution for the biggest problem of the Direct Torque Control on the asynchronous machine to have the high dynamic performance with very simple hysteresis control scheme. The Conventional Direct Torque Control (CDTC) suffers from some drawbacks such as high current, flux and torque ripple, as well as flux control at very low speed. In this paper, we propose an intelligent approach to improve the direct torque control of induction machine which is an artificial neural networks control. The principle, the numerical procedure and the performances of this method are presented.  Simulations results show that the proposed ANN-DTC strategy effectively reduces the torque and flux ripples at low switching frequency, compared with Fuzzy Logic DTC and The Conventional DTC.

Abstract

In this research the k-means method was used for classification purposes after it was improved using genetic algorithms. An automated classification system for heart attack was implemented based on the intelligent recruitment of computer capabilities at the same time characterized by high performance based on (270) real cases stored within a globally database known (Statlog). The proposed system aims to support the efforts of staff in medical felid to reduce the diagnostic errors committed by doctors who do not have sufficient experience or because of the fatigue that the doctor suffers as a result of work pressure. The proposed system goes through two stages: in the first-stage genetic algorithm is used to select important features that have a strong influence in the classification process. These features forms the inputs to the K-means method in the second-stage which uses the selected features to divide the database into two groups one of them contain cases infected with the disease while the other group contains the correct cases depending on the distance Euclidean. The comparison of performance for the method (K-means) before and after addition genetic algorithm shows that the accuracy of the classification improves remarkably where the accuracy of classification was raised from (68..1481) in the case of use (k- means only) to (84.741) when improved the method by using genetic algorithm.

Abstract

Recently, people's interest in health is deepening. So health-related systems are being developed. Existing exercise management systems provided users with exercise related information using PC or smart phone. However, there is a problem that the accuracy of the algorithm for analyzing the user's body information and providing information is low.In this paper, we analyze users' body mass index (BMI) and basal metabolic rate (BMR) and we propose a system that provides the user with necessary information through recommendation algorithm. It informs the user of exercise intensity and momentum, and graphs the exercise history of the user. It also allows the user to refer to the fitness history of other users in the same BMI group. This allows the user to receive more personalized services than the existing exercise management system, thereby enabling efficient exercise.
