The way in which software evolves over time has been much studied and is now fairly well-understood. What has been less thoroughly studied are the processes by which information systems – containing software as one component, but also with significant human and organisational aspects – evolve. In many organisations, few information systems are built at all from scratch, but rather are modified ...

In this paper, an intelligent digital low voltage power factor optimizer has been built. This operates according to the measurement value of phase shift angle between both current and voltage, thus measured. It is simply that it will improve through connecting a set shunt capacitors in order reach optimal (close unity). The proposed for built simulated using software which called electronic wor...

AMPLIA is a multi-agent intelligent learning environment designed to support training of diagnostic reasoning and modelling of domains with complex and uncertain knowledge. AMPLIA focuses on the medical area. It is a system that deals with uncertainty under the Bayesian network approach, where learner-modelling tasks will consist of creating a Bayesian network for a problem the system will pres...

built environment does not “simply appear overnight, like a movie-set springing up on a vacant lot, but has to be produced”.thus, the first point in dealing with such an environment is considered to be the tracing of time in the evaluation of the city and keeping in mind that the whole is more than its parts. the last point becomes naturally understood when the process of city building is p...

Microprocessor design techniques have evolved to a point where large systems, such as S/390@ servers, can be constructed using relatively few, but very complex, applicationspecific integrated circuits (ASICs). Delivery of a quality design in a timely fashion requires that several design activities progress simultaneously, with different types of verification used within the various design disci...

This paper describes the concept of a modular test code developed to reside in Microcontroller Units (MCUs) with Read-Only Memory (ROM) to make easier the test bench evaluation of integrated circuit (IC) prototypes designed at Brazil Semiconductor Technology Center (BSTC). MCU standard input/output ports are used to select independent operating modes and to transfer data from/to a hostcomputer....

Advanced digital mapping tools and technologies are enablers for effective e-planning in the built and human environment. The regeneration and transformation of cities from the industrial age to the knowledge age is essentially a ‘whole life cycle’ process consisting of; planning, development, operation, reuse and renewal. The use of the 3D laser scanner enables digital documentation of buildin...
