Most of the Oil Pumping Units (OPU) are manually monitored. This existing oil-pumping systems use a high power-consuming process, is incapable of OPU’s structural health monitoring. In this paper, a sensor network based intelligent control is proposed for power economy and efficient oil well health monitoring. The condition of the oil storage tanks can be monitored using sensors like level sens...

The Hanford Site in southeastern Washington State is the location of the largest nuclear waste storage area in the United States. Since plutonium production facilities at Hanford were shut down in 1987,cleaning up the leftover waste at the Hanford Site has become one of the largest environmental cleanup projects in history. Legal, political, technical, and social aspects of the cleanup contribu...

In this color mixing machine we use three tanks which are of Red, Blue and Yellow. The three tanks consist of level sensor and fitted with hydraulic line. The hydraulic line consist of solenoid valve.The tank consists of color Steiner of Red, Blue and Yellow. The Steiner flows from hydraulic line into the mixing tank through solenoid valve. The solenoid valve is a digital output device that is ...

IWMI receives its principal funding from 58 governments, private foundations and international and regional organizations known as the Consultative Group on International Agricultural Research (CGIAR).

In this article, we consider the main challenges that impede us from realizing the great promise of computersupported cooperative work (CSCW). First, we discuss some of the key features that CSCW must provide in order to succeed with users. We follow this with a picture of the current state of the practice among CSCW users, and then we examine some technologies that hold promise for future appl...

Cylindrical steel tanks are important components of many industrial plants such as oil refineries and chemical plants. Usually failure of cylindrical tanks leads to serious consequences. During the past earthquakes such as 1964 Alaska and 1999 Turkey seismic performance of cylindrical tanks revealed that tanks are seismically vulnerable. Therefore, evaluation of seismic performance of these str...

This paper approaches heterogeneity and heterogeneous technology as assets, rather than limitations, in the development of computer supported cooperative work. We demonstrate how heterogeneous technologies sustain teachers’ and students’ school work by presenting four different prototypes (the HyConExplorer, the eCell, the iGameFloor and the eBag) that complement one another because they offer ...

Computer Supported Cooperative Work (CSCW) research is the discipline that explores how to utilize computing and networking technologies to facilitate cooperation and collaboration among people. A variety of research has been conducted on CSCW architecture. However, how to ensure CSCW system effectiveness and efficiency on supporting collaboration remains a challenge. In this paper we present a...
