Computer Aided Tolerancing Based on Analysis and Synthetizes of Tolerances Method
The tolerancing step has a great importance in the design process. It characterises the relationship between the different sectors of the product life cycle: Design, Manufacturing and Control. We can distinguish several methods to assist the tolerancing process in the design. Based on arithmetic and statistical method, this paper presents a new approach of analysis and verification of tolerances. The chosen approach is based on the Worst Case Method as an arithmetic method and Monte Carlo method as a statistical method. In this paper, we compare these methods and we present our main approach, which is validated using an example of 1 D tolerancing.

Support of Interactive 3D/4D Presentations by the Very First Ever Made Virtual Laboratories of Antennas
Based on the experience we have gained so far, as independent reviewers of Radioengineering journal, we thought that may be proved useful to publicly share with the interested author, especially the young one, some practical implementations of our ideas for the interactive representation of data using 3D/4D movement and animation, in an attempt to motivate and support her/him in the development of similar dynamic presentations, when s/he is looking for a way to locate the stronger aspects of her/his research results in order to prepare a clear, most appropriate for publication, static presentation figure. For this purpose, we selected to demonstrate a number of presentations, from the simplest to the most complicated, concerning well-known antenna issues with rather hard to imagine details, as it happens perhaps in cases involving Spherical Coordinates and Polarization, which we created to enrich the very first ever made Virtual Laboratories of Antennas, that we distribute over the Open Internet through our website Virtual Antennas. These presentations were developed in a general way, without using antenna simulators, to handle output text and image data from third-party CAS Computer Algebra Systems, such as the Mathematica commercial software we use or the Maxima FLOSS we track its evolution.

Numerical investigation of a solar greenhouse tunnel drier for drying of copra
A numerical investigation of a solar greenhouse tunnel drier (SGTD) has been performed. In the present study, the geometry of the tunnel roof is assumed semi-circular which is covered with a UV (200μ) stabilized polyethylene film. The simulated SGTD reduces moisture of copra from 52.2% to 8% in 55 h under full load conditions. A system of partial differential equations describing heat and moisture transfer during drying copra in the solar greenhouse dryer was developed and this system of non-linear partial differential equations was solved numerically using the finite difference method (FDM). The numerical solution was programmed in Compaq Visual FORTRAN version 6.5. The simulated results reasonably agreed with the experimental data for solar drying copra. This model can be used to provide the design data and is also essential for optimal design of the dryer. For instance the user is able to change the radiation properties of the roof cover for different materials of roof cover.

P ORTOLAN: a Model-Driven Cartography Framework
Processing large amounts of data to extract useful information is an essential task within companies. To help in this task, visualization techniques have been commonly used due to their capacity to present data in synthesized views, easier to understand and manage. However, achieving the right visualization display for a data set is a complex cartography process that involves several transformation steps to adapt the (domain) data to the (visualization) data format expected by visualization tools. To maximize the benefits of visualization we propose Portolan, a generic model-driven cartography framework that facilitates the discovery of the data to visualize, the specification of view definitions for that data and the transformations to bridge the gap with the visualization tools. Our approach has been implemented on top of the Eclipse EMF modeling framework and validated on three different use cases.

An Autonomous Long Range Monitoring System For Emergency Operators
Miniaturization and portability of new electronics lead up to wearable devices embedded within garments: a European program called ProeTEX developed multi-purpose sensors integrated within emergency operators' garments in order to monitor their health state and the surrounding environment. This work deals with the development of an autonomous Long Range communication System (LRS), suitable to transmit data between operators' equipment and the local command post, where remote monitoring software is set up. The LRS infrastructure is based on Wi-Fi protocol and modular architecture. Field tests carried out on the developed prototype showed a high reliability in terms of correctly exchanged data and recovering capabilities in case of temporary disconnection, due to the operator's movements.

Transient Stability Assessment of Smart Power System using Complex Networks Framework
In this paper, a new methodology for stability assessment of a smart power system is proposed. The key to this assessment is an index called betweenness index which is based on ideas from complex network theory. The proposed betweenness index is an improvement of previous works since it considers the actual real power flow through the transmission lines along the network. Furthermore, this work initiates a new area for complex system research to assess the stability of the power system.

Modelling dynamic route choice of pedestrians to assess the criticality of building evacuation
This paper presents an event-driven way finding algorithm for pedestrians in an evacuation scenario, which operates on a graph-based structure. The motivation of each pedestrian is to leave the facility. The events used to redirect pedestrians include the identification of a jam situation and/or identification of a better route than the current. This study considers two types of pedestrians: familiar and unfamiliar with the facility. Four strategies are modelled to cover those groups. The modelled strategies are the shortest path (local and global); They are combined with a quickest path approach, which is based on an observation principle. In the quickest path approach, pedestrians take their decisions based on the observed environment and are routed dynamically in the network using an appropriate cost benefit analysis function. The dynamic modelling of route choice with different strategies and types of pedestrians considers the manifold of in uences which appears in the real system and raises questions about the criticality of an evacuation process. To address this question criteria are elaborated. The criteria we focus on in this contribution are the evacuation time, the individual times spent in jam, the jam size evolution and the overall jam size itself. The in uences of the different strategies on those evaluation criteria are investigated. The sensibility of the system to disturbances (e.g. broken escape route) is also analysed. Keywords: pedestrian dynamics, routing, quickest path, evacuation, jam, critical state

Generating contour lines using different elevation data file formats
In terrain mapping, there are so many ways to measure and estimate the terrain measurements like contouring, vertical profiling, hill shading, hypsometric tinting, perspective view, etc. Here in this paper we are using the contouring techniques to generate the contours for the different digital elevation data like DEM, HGT, IMG etc. The elevation data is captured in dem, hgt and img formats of the same projected area and the contour is generated using the existing techniques and applications. The exact differences, errors of elevation (contour) intervals, slopes and heights are analyzed and recovered.

Distributed k-Core Decomposition
Among the novel metrics used to study the relative importance of nodes in complex networks, k-core decomposition has found a number of applications in areas as diverse as sociology, proteinomics, graph visualization, and distributed system analysis and design. This paper proposes new distributed algorithms for the computation of the k-core decomposition of a network, with the purpose of (i) enabling the run-time computation of k-cores in "live" distributed systems and (ii) allowing the decomposition, over a set of connected machines, of very large graphs, that cannot be hosted in a single machine. Lower bounds on the algorithms complexity are given, and an exhaustive experimental analysis on real-world graphs is provided.

Performance evaluation of FD-SOI Mosfets for different metal gate work function
Fully depleted (FD) Silicon on Insulator (SOI) metal oxide Field Effect Transistor (MOSFET) Is the Leading Contender for Sun 65nm Regime. This paper presents a study of effects of work functions of metal gate on the performance of FD-SOI MOSFET. Sentaurus TCAD simulation tool is used to investigate the effect of work function of gates ont he performance FDSOI MOSFET. Specific channel length of the device that had been concentrated is 25nm. From simulation we observed that by changing the work function of the metal gates of FD-SOI MOSFET we can change the threshold voltage. Hence by using this technique we can set the appropriate threshold voltage of FD-SOI MOSFET at same voltage and we can decrease the leakage current, gate tunneling current and short channel effects and increase drive current.

Simulation and Performance Analysis of Adaptive Filtering Algorithms in Noise Cancellation
Noise problems in signals have gained huge attention due to the need of noise-free output signal in numerous communication systems. The principal of adaptive noise cancellation is to acquire an estimation of the unwanted interfering signal and subtract it from the corrupted signal. Noise cancellation operation is controlled adaptively with the target of achieving improved signal to noise ratio. This paper concentrates upon the analysis of adaptive noise canceller using Recursive Least Square (RLS), Fast Transversal Recursive Least Square (FTRLS) and Gradient Adaptive Lattice (GAL) algorithms. The performance analysis of the algorithms is done based on convergence behavior, convergence time, correlation coefficients and signal to noise ratio. After comparing all the simulated results we observed that GAL performs the best in noise cancellation in terms of Correlation Coefficient, SNR and Convergence Time. RLS, FTRLS and GAL were never evaluated and compared before on their performance in noise cancellation in terms of the criteria we considered here.

Evolutionary Foundations of Mathematics
We propose a simple cognitive model where qualitative and quantitative com- parisons enable animals to identify objects, associate them with their properties held in memory and make naive inference. Simple notions like equivalence re- lations, order relations are used. We then show that such processes are at the root of human mathematical reasoning by showing that the elements of totally ordered sets satisfy the Peano axioms. The process through which children learn counting is then formalized. Finally association is modeled as a Markov process leading to a stationary distribution.

Access Control Mechanisms for Semantic Web services-A Discussion on Requirements & Future Directions
Semantic Web is an open, distributed, and dynamic environment where access to resources cannot be controlled in a safe manner unless the access decision takes into account during discovery of web services. Security becomes the crucial factor for the adoption of the semantic based web services. An access control means that the users must fulfill certain conditions in order to gain access over web services. Access control is important in both perspectives i.e. legal and security point of view. This paper discusses important requirements for effective access control in semantic web services which have been extracted from the literature surveyed. I have also discussed open research issues in this context, focusing on access control policies and models in this paper.

Impact of Limited Feedback on MIMO-OFDM Systems using Joint Beamforming
In multi input multi output antenna systems, beamforming is a technique for guarding against the negative effects of fading. However, this technique requires the transmitter to have perfect knowledge of the channel which is often not available a priori. A solution to overcome this problem is to design the beamforming vector using a limited number of feedback bits sent from the receiver to the transmitter. In the case of limited feedback, the beamforming vector is limited to lie in a codebook that is known to both the transmitter and receiver.When the feedback is strictly limited, important issues are how to quantize the information needed at the transmitter and how much improvement in associated performance can be obtained as a function of the amount of feedback available.In this paper channel quantization schema using simple approach to codebook design (random vector quantization)is illustrated. Performance results show that even with a few bits of feedback, performance can be close to that with perfect channel knowledge at the transmitter.

Design of Thin-Film-Transistor (TFT) arrays using current mirror circuits for Flat Panel Detectors (FPDs)
We designed 4x4 matrix TFTs arrays using current mirror amplifiers. Advantages of current mirror amplifiers are they need less requiring switches and the conversion time is short. The TFTs arrays 4x4 matrix using current mirror circuits have been fabricated and tested with success. The TFTs array directly can process signals coming from 16 pixels in the same node. This enables us to make the summation of the light intensities of close pixels during a reading.
