Abstract: Speech quality assessment is one of the key matters of voice services and every provider should ensure adequate connection quality to end users. Speech quality has to be measured by a trusted method and results have to correlate with intelligibility and clarity of the speech, as perceived by the listener. It can be achieved by subjective methods but in real life we must rely on objective measurements based on reliable models. One of them is E-model that we can consider as mainly adopted method in IP telephony. This method is based on evaluation of ransmission path impairments influencing speech signal, especially delays and packet losses. These parameters which are common in IP network can affect dramatically speech quality. In this article we present a new modification of Emodel that takes into consideration the cascade codecs arrangement. The proposed correction function improves the current computational non-intrusive approach that is described in recommendation!
ITU-T G.107, so called E-model.

Title of the Paper: Possible Neuro-Neutrosophic Integration

Abstract: Quite recently, Neutrosophic Logic was proposed by Florentine Smarandache which is based on non-standard analysis that was given by Abraham Robinson in 1960s [1]. Neutrosophic Logic was developed to represent mathematical model of uncertainty, vagueness, ambiguity, imprecision, undefined, unknown, incompleteness, inconsistency, redundancy, contradiction. Neutrosophic logic is much more generalised and capable of handling and representing uncertainty, indeterminacy and gaps in information as compared to fuzzy logic. The advantage of neutrosophic logic is clearly evident in the systems developed that utilize neutrosophic logic. Further augmentation in the adaptation and learning capabilities of neutrosophic systems can be done using neural networks and genetic algorithms. Neural networks have been extensively researched and hybridised with the fuzzy systems so as to impart learning and adaptation abilities to the hybridised structures. As is evident that neutrosophic!
logic is an extension to fuzzy logic, so it is proposed in this paper to give extension to the existing neuro-fuzzy systems in the form of neuro-neutrosophic systems. It is expected that the proposed hybridisation models: neuro-neutrosophic systems would indeed inherit advantage of both the complementary techniques and they would be much more tolerant in it's working as compared to neuro-fuzzy systems.

Number of paper pages: 10
Abstract: . This paper describes static and fatigue analysis of leaf spring with seven layers usually is used in the automotive suspension systems. The material of steel and composite multi leaf spring made up of glass fiber reinforced polymer is investigated for life estimation prediction. The dimension of a conventional steel leaf spring of a light commercial vehicle is taken and the static simulation has been verified with experimental results. A composite multi leaf spring using E-glass/Epoxy has also fabricated for analysis with the same shape and dimensions for comparison of the load carrying capacity, stress, deflection, Factor of safety, mode shapes, stiffness, weight and cost. Finite element analysis has been utilized for modeling and analysis in three dimensional cases to derive the static and natural frequencies of the leaf spring. The fatigue life of steel and composite leaf springs is also predicted in this study. Compared to the steel spring, the composite leaf!
spring is found to have 29.99 % lesser stress, 42.45 % higher stiffness and 11.10 % higher first natural frequency than that of steel leaf spring. A weight reduction of 66.67 % is also achieved by using composite leaf spring of E-glass/Epoxy. Although the E-glass/Epoxy composite is much expensive than steel, but the results represented that the fatigue life of it is more than that of steel leaf spring.

Abstract: Application of fuzzy PD controller based on self learning algorithm for SVC device has been investigated in this paper. This approach used sensitivity model for learning Self Learning Fuzzy Logic parameters. This has been improved by adding up an integral term whose gain coefficient is also synthesized by learning that is actuated after completion of the main learning algorithm. The paper considers the conventional PID controller and compares its performance with respect to the proposed SLFLC controller. Several fault and load disturbance simulation results are presented to emphasize the efficiency of the proposed SVC controller in a TNB 25- bus of south Malaysian power system and New England 39 Bus system.

Title of the Paper: Solving Economic Load Dispatch problems using Differential Evolution with Opposition Based Learning

Abstract: This paper presents a Differential Evolution algorithm combined with Opposition Based Learning (DE-OBL) to solve Economic Load Dispatch problem with non-smooth fuel cost curves considering transmission losses, power balance and capacity constraints. The proposed algorithm varies from the Standard Differential Evolution algorithm in terms of three basic factors. The initial population is generated through the concept of Opposition Based Learning, applies tournament based mutation and uses only one population set throughout the optimization process. The performance of the proposed algorithm is investigated and tested with two standard test systems, the IEEE 30 bus 6 unit system and the 20 unit system. The experiments showed that the searching ability and convergence rate of the proposed method is much better than the standard differential evolution. The results of the proposed approach were compared in terms of fuel cost, computational time, power loss and individual!
generator powers with existing differential evolution and other meta-heuristics in literature. The proposed method seems to be a promising approach for load dispatch problems based on the solution quality and the computational efficiency.

Title of the Paper: Full-graph solution of switched capacitors circuits by means of two-graphs
Authors as they appear in the Paper: Bohumil Brtnik
Email addresses of all the authors: brtnik@vspj.cz
Number of paper pages: 11
Abstract: Circuits with switched capacitors are described by a capacitance matrix. As there are also graph methods of circuit analysis in addition to algebraic methods, it is clearly possible in theory to carry out an analysis of the whole switched circuit in two-phase switching exclusively by the graph method as well. The phase of switching are called even (E) and odd (O), not 1 and 2 to avoid confusion between the sign of the phases and of the nodes. For this purpose it is possible to plot a Mason graph of a circuit, use two graphs to reduce oriented graphs for all the four phases of switching, and then plot a summary MC-graph from charge and voltage graphs. Summary MC-graph is now constructed by the incomplete common skeletons of the V-graph and the Q-graph in all four phases, branches obtained for EO and OE phase are drawn between these nodes, while their resulting transfer is multiplied by to express the delay between the two phases. This summary MC-graph can then be !
interpreted by the Mason's relation to provide transparent voltage transfers, and so it is possible to reach the final result a quite fully graphically. This method can be used for circuits containing operational amplifier with the break point frequency, too, but summa graph is rather complicated in this case, because this description is based on the modified nodal method, where the number of nodes is remains

Abstract: Major problem of tripping signal of a relay based on steady state component does not warranty faster tripping schemes for protection of extra high voltage transmission lines. Proposed work has made an attempt to find solution to the problem of fault detection and location by relay using post fault high frequency signals. Transmission line protection using travelling waves generated at the time of fault are used as trip signals of a travelling wave relay.Paper has made an attempt to obtain travelling waves components in the form of forward wave and backward waves from post fault components of voltage and current. These have been used for getting 0, á and â components using clarke's transformation which further reduces to df and dr respectively forming trip signals for tripping travelling wave relay. The proposed methodology is tested on a 500KV test system for different types of fault and different fault locations.Results obtained by proposed methodology are in tot!
al comparison to those obtained by co-relation technique.

Abstract: In today's automotive applications the usage of BLDC (Brushless DC) motors is becoming very popular because of its advantages over the DC motors. For automotive applications the permanent fault diagnosis and protection of the BLDC motor and control system is mandatory. This paper presents several concepts for extensive diagnosis implementation for different fault conditions that may appear in the BLDC motor or its control electronics (the three phased bridge inverter and control ASIC). The detectable failure conditions by the methods described in this paper are: short circuit conditions at the motor terminals (short to battery, GND or even short between the phase terminals); internal, external power supply voltages and over-temperature failure conditions; position, hall signals failure conditions. The implementation is done using hardware circuits which can be easily integrated in the BLDC motor control ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit).

Abstract: IEEE 802.16 standard is created to compete with cable access networks. In the beginning end users are immobile and have a line of sight with base station, now it moved to mobile non line of sight (NLOS) with the new standard IEEE 802.16e and IEEE 802.16j. The new IEEE 802.16j standard which is an amendment to IEEE 802.16e is mobile multi hop relay (MMR) specification for wireless networks. In this paper we have proposed a new adaptive model for transparent mode IEEE 802.16j MMR networks and studied about the throughput enhancement, optimal relay placement and spatial reuse techniques. We have used four mobile stations (T-MS) connected to transparent mode base station (TMR-BS), which are moving at a speed of 20 m/sec. The T-MS are initially placed near to TMR-BS and are moving away from TMR-BS. The average throughput achieved without relay T-RS is 792.045913 Kbps and the average throughput achieved with relay TRS is 1261.856667 Kbps. There is 37.2318 % increase in t!
he throughput by placing transparent mode relays TRS at suitable position.

Abstract: Surface treatment of polyurethane is very interesting and promising procedure for its broad possibilities of application in technical practice. Modification of porous polyurethane surface results in improved mechanical stability, sound absorption and heat resistance, which is a key parameter for usage in insulation of aircraft hulls and is subjected to stringent safety regulations. Application of glass fibre powder onto the polyurethane surface is a technological procedure, providing material with modified pores area. Pores with this modification exhibit sound absorption increased up to 50 % in the frequency range from 50 to 6400 Hz.

Abstract: Surface treatment of polyurethane is very interesting and promising procedure for its broad possibilities of application in technical practice. Modification of porous polyurethane surface results in improved mechanical stability, sound absorption and heat resistance, which is a key parameter for usage in insulation of aircraft hulls and is subjected to stringent safety regulations. Application of glass fibre powder onto the polyurethane surface is a technological procedure, providing material with modified pores area. Pores with this modification exhibit sound absorption increased up to 50 % in the frequency range from 50 to 6400 Hz.

Abstract: - For scientific research and / or industrial application it is important to determine mathematical models of force and torque, when machining. Thus, it would be possible to know optimum process parameters values or, even better, to predict force and torque values, once process parameters values set. Machining holes, more specifically drilling and widening, in stainless steel parts is required in many cases but, unfortunately, the existing data published on this topic are very poor and, rather, qualitative ones. So, a study on 10TiMoNiCr175 stainless steel material has been done and the results presented by this paper, mainly considering the wide industrial application of this material in Romanian industry

Abstract: Among the array of innovative Information and Communication Technologies (ICTs) that could be deployed in the construction industry, radio frequency identification (RFID) technology stands out as a radical innovation that can overcome materials flows deficiencies. This paper, based on an exploratory field research, analyzes the potential of RFID for the management of materials across four layers of one construction supply chain. Results reveal that the RFID-enabled materials management application would lead to a more efficient communication within and between the four layers of the supply chain, more accurate inventories, a tighter project control, more efficient quality controls, and, overall, a smoother optimization of day-to-day materials management.

Abstract: Research related to biomedical, including dentistry related cases, usually involves medical experts to do the interpretation and finalized the diagnosis. However this procedure might introduces subjectivities in the diagnosis and the possibility of variability in the interpretation might be expected. Factors that contribute to this issue come from the nature of radiographic images that is noisy and low in contrast. Due to that research related to contrast enhancement algorithms are the accepted image processing method to assist medical officers in doing more reliable interpretation. Thus this work presents an analysis of contrast enhancement algorithms (CEA) applied to digital intra-oral radiographs images. Two types of CEA named Sharp Median Adaptive Histogram Equalization (SMAHE) and Sharp Contrast Limited Adaptive Histogram Equalization (SCLAHE) are compared with the original images. Overall results show that SCLAHE outperforms original and SMAHE in enhancing ce!
rtain pathologies.

Abstract: The paper presents a validation method of the information systems conceived for the business environment. Unlike the audit of the accounting information systems or of the established testing methods of the software, we suggest that for testing and validation of the information systems, they should be implemented and used through enterprise exercise. Through this, besides the actual check of the software we also evaluate the way in which the software applications adapt to the full running of a processing flow of the information, corresponding to some basic functions of the enterprise (supply, production, sale, etc.). In such way we obtain complete and good quality results, at low costs of the evaluation process.

Abstract: The major problem for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) is the limited energy supply of the sensors. The research in this area is focused on making smaller sensors with low power consumption. Some of the most common techniques in prolonging the lifetime of the sensor network are data compression, routing algorithms, data aggregation, scheduling and synchronization. In this paper, an adaptive routing algorithm (ARA) suited especially for grid WSN is presented. The algorithm takes into account the residual energy of the sensor nodes and configures the paths in order to maximize the network lifetime. It also presented data aggregations techniques based on temporal and spatial correlation characteristic to for monitoring and data acquisition sensor networks. Tests were performed on an OmNET++ simulating platform, comparing ARA with already existing algorithms for grid WSN and highlighting the advantages of using the routing algorithm together with the data aggregation tec!
hnique. Additionally, a test to determine the most energy effective place of the sink in the network and a comparison between square and hexagonal topology for WSN are performed.

Abstract: In this paper we present a new control structure to extract the maximum power of a wind energy conversion system based on the double fed induction generator (DFIG). The proposed algorithm combines the nonlinear Backstepping approach and the field orientation scheme applied to control the rotor side converter (RSC) and the grid side converter (GSC) of the DFIG. The proposed strategy is asymptotically stable in the context of Lyapunov theory. Simulations results show interesting performances of the system in terms of the reference tracking stability and the robustness against parameters variations.

Abstract: Transaction cost theory has been used to explain the governance of the organization supply chain for decades. However it can not be used to explain the governance change of the organization supply chain in Taiwan¡¦s hi-tech industry. Based on contingency theory, a precious study then adopted two factors to explain the governance changes between upstream and upstream players in a supply chain. The two factors proposed in the study are relative profitability and technology complexity. The previous used a binary value (either 1 or 0) to describe the factors. It however can not describe the gradual changing value between 0 and 1, e.g., 0.12, 0.23, 0.85, etc. To overcome this problem, this study uses fuzzy logic to deal with these gradual change values and proposed a fuzzy-inference-based expert system to determine the governance controllability among the organizations in a supply chain. In the proposed fuzzy expert system, the input fuzzy variables are relative profita!
bility and technology complexity. The output fuzzy variable is governance controllability. Nine fuzzy rules are used in the fuzzy expert system. We use Java programming language to establish a computer package for the proposed fuzzy expert system. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is used as a system analysis and design tool for the proposed system. Three UML diagrams are used in this study including a use case diagram, a class diagram, and a sequence diagram. We also conducted 20 simulation cases to validate the proposed system and discuss the simulation results.

Abstract: Evolution of human society as a whole determined the development of educational system. Evolution of our country in all sectors led by assimilating new learning systems existing in the world which responding better to students needs who will work in different areas. Therefor, introducing a new system of education in Romania has been a challenge for the entire academic community of our country. This new system should meet the needs of modern education. It must be primarily in agreement with the European Union teaching system. With this, have tried and implementing the credits transfer system through wich to achieves greater flexibility to students based on opportunities appeared for them. In this paper we wanted to show that how these structural changes have been implemented. In the same time, we wanted to see if they are operational, providing training with unitary character for next specialists in physical education. The variety of disciplines found in planning do!
cuments of the faculties of speciality it was the basis for realising this study. The fact that each university has a different vision on how to achieve educational study program is contrary to the pedagogical principles that must have a unitary character.

Abstract: With the convergence of the Internet and the Global Positioning System (GPS), a common approach called GPS tracking system has been developed nowadays. A GPS tracking system uses GPS to determine the precise location of a vehicle, person, or other assets and shares information with remote clients through the Internet. In the outdoors, the device usually connects to the Internet through mobile networks like GPRS or 3G. However, the weaknesses of a mobile network are low bandwidth and high charging strategies compared to Ethernet or Wi-Fi. In this paper, a demand-driven architecture for web-based tracking systems is presented. By integrating several technologies nowadays, this architecture is designed to improve the efficiency for the location-aware applications. The proposed architecture focuses on two problems. One is the redundant connection, causing the waste of bandwidth and fees during the connection period in the mobile network. The other is the data asynchron!
ization during the period of transmission. We not only addressed the connection scheme to solve above issues, but also designed a prototype on an embedded platform for web-based tracking systems. The performance has also been evaluated for the total latency time when a user exploits different communication medium, and the results showed that the user can monitor the status of target in real time even in the worst case.

Therefore, there is a crucial need to represent the invisible users so that users know with whom they are interacting with, when to communicate and what to do during the collaboration. Most NCVE systems support non-verbal communication cue only to a limited degree causing unnatural communication and degrading communication quality. This leads to miss communication and miss interpretation of information during the collaboration. Research works on identifying this situation have been performed by many researchers that lead to the issues of awareness. There is a lack of research that focusing on the use of effective digital elements in networked collaborative virtual environment. In this research, we investigate what are the digital elements used and how they present i!
nvisible users. In this way, the appropriate digital elements can be used to model the invisible users in terms of their presence, states and roles. Thus, conflicts in communication between users can be avoided and the digital elements can provide the mean of knowing the participants in the virtual space.Then, our research further explore various roles played by users and access right granted to each role, specifically in e-learning, project management and game. A clear role and well defined job function can strictly outline users' access right for ensuring smooth communication and secure protection as well as privacy of users.

Abstract: Transaction cost theory has been used to explain the governance of the organization supply chain for decades. However it can not be used to explain the governance change of the organization supply chain in Taiwan¡¦s hi-tech industry. Based on contingency theory, a precious study then adopted two factors to explain the governance changes between upstream and upstream players in a supply chain. The two factors proposed in the study are relative profitability and technology complexity. The previous used a binary value (either 1 or 0) to describe the factors. It however can not describe the gradual changing value between 0 and 1, e.g., 0.12, 0.23, 0.85, etc. To overcome this problem, this study uses fuzzy logic to deal with these gradual change values and proposed a fuzzy-inference-based expert system to determine the governance controllability among the organizations in a supply chain. In the proposed fuzzy expert system, the input fuzzy variables are relative profit!
ability and technology complexity. The output fuzzy variable is governance controllability. Nine fuzzy rules are used in the fuzzy expert system. We use Java programming language to establish a computer package for the proposed fuzzy expert system. The Unified Modeling Language (UML) is used as a system analysis and design tool for the proposed system. Three UML diagrams are used in this study including a use case diagram, a class diagram, and a sequence diagram. We also conducted 20 simulation cases to validate the proposed system and discuss the simulation results. This study is an inter-discipline study covering artificial intelligence method (fuzzy expert system) and management issue. The computer package used in this study can be easily reused to build other fuzzy expert applications in other areas.

Abstract: Nowadays, there are a lot of communication media available for sharing information. The use of online media is among the common activities within the society of digital era especially for young adults. The Internet allows information to be shared freely, easily and fast through social media. Several studies show that information can be a weapon to influence people. The misuse of communication media may lead to threat. It is therefore important to understand the factors that affect people in selecting media and trusting their sources. In this paper, we present an exploratory study to investigate the patterns of media preferences and beliefs based on the young adults' lifestyles focusing on parents' education level, standard of living and their access to the internet. Participants comprise of ninety eight local young adults who use communication media regularly. Data were analyzed using multidimensional proximity scaling and multiple response techniques. The results !
show that media preferences are affected by their lifestyles while belief towards the communication media are not related to their lifestyles.

Abstract: In this paper, a vision-based FPGA-based hand gesture interface and control system is presented with aim to control the hardware devices in real time more naturally. The system is implemented on the Altera FPGA board that consists of the image pre-processing and features extraction states to detect and track user's hand effectively. Bounding box and Centre-Of-Mass based computation are used in the system for gesture sign classification. The main modules in the image processing exploit the parallelism architecture of the FPGA to achieve fast hand gesture recognition to provide several essential features: (1) Hand detecting and tracking, (2) Gesture classification (3) Real time processing and (4) Controlling the hardware device. The result of this work can be used as a proof of concept for other real time hand gesture interface system for controlling home appliances such as TV, lamp, audio system, air-conditioner etc.

Abstract: In role-based management systems, tasks are distributed to roles instead of users directly. Users playing the roles are responsible to carry out the tasks. Since roles are the central of management, the way roles are structured consistently influences team members. It could affect their motivation level, job satisfaction, peace of mind and security to resources or belongings. Thus, roles play by team members must be clearly defined and set in order to enhance communication, coordination and cooperation which lead to the achievement of shared goals in the virtual space. Therefore, this paper studies roles in five organizational structures within real world organizations. In addition, investigation of roles in various applications within virtual world is also carried out. The main focus of the study is to extract the core elements of roles with respect to their involvements and authorities. The findings show that there is no direct correlation between both parameters!
due to the uniqueness of such elements. We conclude that there are six generic roles available in any organization.

Abstract: Sensor simulation is an important aspect in many envisaged simulation scenarios dealing with robotics. This contribution focuses on a novel sensor simulation approach of optical sensors supported by the renderer. The term 'Virtual Testbeds' has been coined for these close-to-reality simulations containing considering complete mission scenarios as a whole instead of focusing on a variety of details. A novel approach for sensor simulation is introduced, which is based on a modular framework architecture that supports the integration of real and virtual sensors, as well as different kinds of error models. Combining simulation data and techniques with those originally developed for 3D rendering, synergy effects arise. Improved simulation accuracy is achieved, whilst simultaneously increasing the performance significantly. The practical applicability is demonstrated in different Virtual Testbed scenarios ranging from the simulation of wood harvesting processes in simula!
ted forests up to the virtual prototyping of space exploration robots.

Abstract: In a survey investigation, subjects will normally provide only one answer for each question. However, when they are allowed to provide more than one answer, a specific technique is needed to represent the observed data in a visual form that could be easily seen and viewed in terms of its similarity and dissimilarity among the survey attributes. One of the common techniques used in visualizing the results is by using multidimensional scaling (MDS). MDS is often used to provide a visual representation of the pattern of proximities (i.e., similarities or distances) among a set of objects that allow results to be interpreted according to the survey subjects and attributes. However, too many subjects and attributes will produce massive output points (coordinates). In order to enhance the visualization, a tool called Murvis (Multiple Response Visualization) has been developed using Java programming language to provide users with the flexibiliy in visualizing the MDS ou!
tput coordinates in 2D and 3D space. Murvis allows users to add colors to the graphic visual and present the output in many different and flexible views. With the latter, analysts of multiple response survey are able to illustrate a more informative research findings. A small scale survey involving three data sets are used to test the usability and effectiveness of the tool which has some impending significances.

Abstract: Digital Communication seeks exchanging and sharing digital data unlimitedly. Undoubtedly, digital data becomes crucial in human-human interaction. Digital data can be shared in various of forms, regardless of primitive or composite data. It involves many disciplines such as scientific research, business management, government policies and even personal affairs. Various data types such as video, audio, images, text and numeric are shared among various parties. Such data that ranging from primitive to complex state can be located at many platforms. The platform that interactively correlated can be of homogeneous or heterogeneous types. Upon controlling data sharing, issues such as ownership, data proprietary, policies, disclosure, confidentiality and security should be raised and discussed in details. In this paper, the organization, platform and issues regarding data sharing are reviewed and highlighted to investigate the common factors that constitute to the !
heterogeneous networked environments. Investigation on common factors towards two different perspectives of data sharing, which are data sharing application and data sharing software tools are also conducted. Based on the common factors, future research will include mechanisms to support flexible data sharing in diverse computational platforms.

Abstract: The paper is focused on falling film formation on horizontal tube bundle. Backflash characteristic was measured on the experimental tube bundle. Final part of the contribution deals with the tube bundle supplemented by guide blades between individual horizontal tubes. The guide blades prevent to falling film backsplash and improve to form more uniform falling film flow over number of tubes. The experimental stand was used for testing of the horizontal tube bundle with cooper tubes in vertical adjustment. Different tube structures were tested. The heat transfer coefficient was used as major indication of falling film characteristic reflecting qualitative changes in falling film formation.
