Authors: Dmitruk Michał
Published: June 2020

Duże osiedle mieszkaniowe na wzgórzach po północnej stronie rzeki Czechówki planowane było już w latach 50-tych XX wieku. Pod intensywną zabudowę wielorodzinną przeznaczono tereny wsi: Czechówka Górna i po części Bielszczyzna. W 1965 roku Lubelski oddział SARP ogłosił konkurs zamknięty na opracowanie koncepcji zagospodarowania wspomnianego obszaru. Zgłoszone prace prezentowały innowacyjne, niekiedy radykalne podejście do urbanistyki nowoczesnego osiedla wielorodzinnego, które w wybranych przypadkach dały podstawy do opracowania Ogólnych Planów Zagospodarowania badanego terenu. Analiza rozwiązań proponowanych w pracach konkursowych, jak i również porównanie ze stanem istniejącym dostarczyć mogą ważnych informacji o rozwoju lubelskiej myśli urbanistycznej w okresie PRL.
Enlivening vast green spaces of Zamość. Spatial organization of key recreational areas of the Town. Planty
Authors: Kielin Katarzyna
Published: June 2020

Today’s city longs for air and green. Congestion, overflow of car traffic, the pace and randomness of contemporary living might serve as plights for the spaces around us since one might observe accruing amounts of waste produced by humans, pollution or disorganization/ inconsistency/ incongruity of public spaces. Quite threatening might that be, but there has been observed a ‘trickling’, continuous shift of a social life towards virtual reality of tempting, alluring social media, games, news on-and-on broadcasts, shopping websites. We engage in perversely intimate relation with our ‘cuddle-to’ electronic devices – phones, laptops, smartphones. Little Prince would not be happy with ‘our establishing ties’ with lifeless machines, would he? Getting children out of their computers to kick some ball or play hide-and-seek turns into changing the current of a river or tempering with a bee. It will definitely stab you. Can a historically charged, conservatory space be a no space?

Published: June 2020

In this article, research on data of total cases COVID-19 in the world and Indonesia is presented. The purposes of this research is to predict the number of cases COVID-19 mainly in Indonesia in the near future. The used methods are regression of Support Vector Machine (SVM) and Bayessian Ridge predicting 10 days forward in several countries where Bayessian Ridge gives better result. Similarly, both methods are employed to study the total cases COVID-19 in Indonesia. To include social distancing in the study, an exponential model is applied for initialization and then Gaussian is used to predict future total cases. Using Gaussian model, one has 2 scenarios of future predictions. The number of total cases on 24th April 2020 is 14675 and considerable not realistic. This is  updated i.e. the total number of cases in 24 April 2020 is 4242. Actually,  the number of total positive cases COVID-19 on 24th April 2020 was 8211. Compared to the prediction with the real data, the approach of this research should be improved to give better prediction.Keywords:  Bayesian Ridge; COVID-19; Gaussian; Social distancing; SVM (Support Vector Machine)Menelusuri COVID-19 di Dunia dan di Indonesia dengan Model Regresi SVM, Bayesian dan GaussianABSTRAKPada artikel ini ditunjukkan penelusuran data total kasus COVID-19 di dunia dan di Indonesia. Penelitian ini bertujuan memprediksi banyaknya kasus COVID-19 terutama di Indonesia pada waktu tertentu mendatang. Metode yang digunakan adalah metode SVM (Support Vector Machine) dan regresi Bayesian Ridge dimana kedua metode berhasil memprediksi untuk total kasus COVID-19 di beberapa negara di dunia dan hasil Bayesian Ridge  lebih baik. Untuk itulah kedua metode ini digunakan untuk menelusuri data total kasus COVID-19 di Indonesia. Akan tetapi pengaruh social distancing belum ditunjukkan sehingga digunakan model eksponensial dan Gaussian. Model eksponensial digunakan sebagai nilai awal untuk prediksi pada model Gaussian. Pada model Gaussian diperoleh prediksi dalam bentuk 2 skenario yaitu skenario terburuk dan skenario realistis. Skenario terburuk memberikan total kasus pada 24 April 2020 sebanyak 14675. Hal ini  tidak realistis karena data terakhir pada 31 Maret 2020 sebesar 1677. Oleh karena itu diusulkan skenario realistis dimana total kasus puncak berlaku pada 24 April 2020 dengan total kasus 4242. Akan tetapi ternyata data total kasus positif COVID-19 pada 24 April 2020 sebanyak 8211. Dengan memperhatikan hasil prediksi dan yang diperoleh dari data, pendekatan yang sudah dilakukan masih memerlukan perbaikan.Kata Kunci:  Bayesian Ridge; COVID-19; Gaussian; Social distancing; SVM (Support Vector Machine)

Published: June 2020

Network Monitoring System (NMS) is a system that is highly demanded internet service provider industry in this fast-developing information technology era. The availability of NMS is the best option to restore the service level agreement as a means to compete with other internet service providers’ competitors. The occurrence of disturbance in the network is often unnoticed by the network administrator. This may lead to a crucial problem in decreasing network quality as the impact of time-consuming in solving the problem. Through the explanation, the writer tried to anticipate by classifying problems using Pareto and integrated Nagios with Telegram Messenger as a notification of disturbance. Nagios has many features such as reports, event handlers, monitoring resources (CPU load, memory usage, status up / down, uptime, data traffic, bandwidth), etc. One notable feature owned by Nagios is blast notification of disturbance. It is a feature that will function when one of the devices is in trouble. This feature will inform the network administrator or authorized person in certain divisions as regards the error network. In this case, the problematic device can be categorized according to the parameters made by the network administrator.

ASR is the use of system software and hardware based techniques to identify and process human voice. In this research, Tamil words are analyzed, segmented as syllables, followed by feature extraction and recognition. Syllables are segmented using short term energy and segmentation is done in order to minimize the corpus size. The algorithm for syllable segmentation works by performing the STE function of the continuous speech signal. The proposed approach for speech recognition uses the combination of Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCC) and Linear Predictive Coding (LPC). MFCC features are used to extract a feature vector containing all information about the linguistic message. The LPC affords a robust, dependable and correct technique for estimating the parameters that signify the vocal tract system.LPC features can reduce the bit rate of speech (i.e reducing the measurement of transmitting signal).The combined feature extraction technique will minimize the size of transmitting signal. Then the proposed FE algorithm is evaluated on the speech corpus using the Random forest approach. Random forest is an effective algorithm which can build a reliable training model as its training time is less because the classifier works on the subset of features alone.
Decolonizing Engineering Education in Nigerian Higher Education
Authors:   Teaching and Learning Development Center, Mangosuthu University of Technology, Durban, South Africa., Fomunyam Kehdinga George
Published: June 2020

Manifestation of western views above the culturally accepted standards in the society has been a major topical issue and over the year’s African countries have been heavily influenced by western cultures which permeated their religion by the early missionaries and the Trans-Atlantic slave trade that was predominant then. These western influence is prevalent in engineering education and it affects the discipline. Engineering education is important for national development and competitiveness and it is vital in terms of supply of electricity, water, roads, telecommunication, transportation, factories, machineries. This paper explores decolonization as a concept and a panacea to the challenges of engineering education in Nigeria, stressing the need to decolonize the discipline. The research was a theoretical study as it relied on relevant literature to address the topic under consideration. The findings of the study revealed that engineering education in Nigeria is constrained by lots of challenges which include fallen standards, obsolete curriculum, poor funding, inadequate infrastructure which affect the conduct of the discipline. It was also revealed that the engineering legacy the British bequeathed to Nigeria has continued without much change to it and there is therefore a need to decolonize engineering education in Nigeria. There is therefore the need to decolonize the curriculum, the teaching and learning approach, the language. The ministry of education must also coordinate with other engineering bodies to ensure that the curriculum is reviewed to suit the culture of the country.

Published: June 2020

Resistance of a building against seismic forces is one of the practical design parameters that considered while designing as well as during construction. In addition to the parameters, structural ponding is also a problem that occurs when the buildings are spaced closely during the earthquake. However, the functionality and objective of these buildings are different, which translates into different dynamic systems. Many techniques have been introducing and developing to design the structures safe. Coupling and bracing are some of the methods which hold the building together and act as a single inverted pendulum during the earthquake. In the present study, a horizontally coupled building system of 20 storey’s is developed separately with coupled beams and bracing systems. It is assumed that the two adjacent buildings were similar in this coupled building system, so the two adjacent stories could be coupled at the same height by an inter-building. And coupling with beams is introduced at different storey’s in the building, and results reveal that the building coupled beam at all storey showed the performance of the building in terms of displacement, storey drift, and storey shear.

Published: June 2020

H-CoBIT is a technique initially developed with help of system analyst and designers in safety critical domains to anticipate human involvement failures that may be challenging once the system design becomes operational. This paper outlines and introduces a means of identifying cognitive biases using H-CoBIT method retrospectively (following an accident), where ‘human error’ is a convenient and all-encompassing explanation given in ninety per cent of cases. This we assert is because existing investigative approaches largely concentrate on observed actions rather than intrinsic thought processes. By teasing out the presence of cognitive bias as a causal factor for incorrect actions, safety recommendations can be made towards their mitigation. Analyzing a real-world case study by anticipating potential cognitive biases using H-CoBIT and comparing the results with the observed biases helped validate that this approach can also be used retrospectively.

Skill prediction is the process of withdrawing information from existing data for the purpose of determining their existing skills and future trends. Player gameplay data are collected from various sites and it is validated using blockchain technology. This ensures that the chain remains immutable, because any change in a block’s data will invalidate every block that follows it. Players are then clustered using the K-means clustering algorithm, a clustering approach based on partitions is implemented. To increase the accuracy of prediction, players are classified into groups. Euclidean distance is computed to measure the distance or the (dis)similarity between each pair of players. Decision tree algorithm is used to predict player skill. The efficiency of the proposed method can be assessed using the measures such as precision, recall, F-Score, correlation of Matthews and Fallout rate. The proposed system improves the performance of the system as well as predict more accurate skill using kmeans clustering and decision tree.

In the field of technical research the Internet of Things (IoT) has become an interesting topic. The device is interconnected over the internet. We usually think of IoT in terms of independently owned cars and smart homes, but in extreme practical matters one of the best applications of IoT technology. In many disciplines, IoT is increasing rapidly from a technical point of view, in particular with the smart crossing system. In the meantime, it is a very populous country in Bangladesh. A lot of people cross the street every day. A lot of wide roads are to be crossed in Bangladesh. Even dead troubles. There is a lot of vehicles on the lane. There are many wide roads in Bangladesh that are a lot to cross. Troubles, even dead ones. Many vehicles are on the road. Bangladesh is also a developing country, and the laws of road crossing are not very strict, in which case it is very important to have a pedestrian-safer IoT-based smart crossing system with object tracking. Often people are facing an accident, in particular school children have trouble crossing the road, old people face the same problem. A cost-effective solution to this issue is the key contribution of this paper using a simple framework based on Arduino UNO R3. The device is fully autonomous and can calculate the planned parameters of a pedestrianized IoT-based, smart crossing platform with object tracking in an efficient way. Ultrasonic sensors and one IR sensor were used for measuring the parameters needed for the device. Moreover, in Bangladesh this program is more important and essential. This smart crossing system detects people as well as reduce road accidents.

Concrete is a two phase material with initial internal micro cracks before loading. When the load is applied on the specimen these internal cracks propagate and material fails after reaching its maximum allowable stress. There are different force systems like tensile, compressive, shear, torsion and combination of above. The strain energy is the energy which develops internally in the material to resist deformation because of application of external load. So if the minimum energy level is reached the deformation exceeds its plastic limit and cracks start propagating from tensile zone to compressive zone. Usually the torsional strain energy is studied to define the material characteristics for taking twisting and rotational effects in the member. A study is made regarding the torsional strain energy of ordinary and SCC with glass and steel fibers. Also a comparison is made for strain energy by experimental and analytical models. To give additional strength to the concrete, steel, and glass fibers are also added to SCC and their torsional strain energy was estimated.

Considering the estimate of the potential system in the classroom, lights and fan control is expected to be performed in three modules. Thus, in the case of light and ventilator power, occupancy sensor is used to estimate the amount of output voltage increases in the diode while the rotational speed increases simultaneously. Motion sensors are common where safety and energy efficiency are concerned. They can be used for burglary alarms or surveillance cameras, which activate such devices when it detects nearby motion. This can be an energy saver by turning off lights in a building as it no longer detects activity and is commonly used in office buildings and toilets. The PIR is a motion sensor that you might have seen when you enter a bathroom or office space, normally with a white mask. They are lightweight, low powered, simple to use and low cost. The way it detects motion is by sensing the temperature differences between the surroundings PIRs are fitted with a passive sensors level of infrared radiation –all emits some low-level radiations, but a human body emits good heat. This triggers a pulse when the sensor senses a different shift between the two slots which is what it detects as ‘movement’ Technology is available that combines both PIR and microwave sensors to have less false alarms, a sudden increase in room temperature will cause the PIR to go off while wind will push an object and activate the microwave sensor.

Slope is a measure of steepness or the degree of inclination of a feature relative to the horizontal plane. One of the phenomenon or incidents of a slope was called as slope failure or landslide. Slope failure was a major natural disaster that had affected the country in terms of injuries, deaths, property damage, destruction of services, public inconvenience and economic as well as financial losses. Slope failure cases were very serious geologic hazard disaster that happened in many countries around the world. The aim of this paper is to determine the category of slope failure in the state of Johor based on Landslide Hazard Zonation (LHZ). Data were calculated by using Total Estimated Hazard (TEHD) value method which considered six factors effecting the slope failure, including lithology; slope steepness, topography, land use class, annual rainfall and type of soil. Data on the factors were collected from Malaysia Public Works Department (JKR) inspection form, website, and secondary data resource. After that weight for each factor were identified by referring to Landslide Hazard Evaluation Factor (LHEF) rating scheme. Then determination of LHZ was done according to TEHD values which have five hazard zones; (1) very low; (2) low; (3) medium; (4) high; and (5) very high. The results of this study found that out of total fifty two cases there were three medium hazard (MH), twenty seven high hazard (HH) and twenty two very high hazard (VHH). Comparison between actual data from JKR and total 52 locations of slope failure in Johor showed that 94% accuracy, TEHD equation could calculate potential slope failure hazards in Johor very well.

Dashboards are thought of as a single point of reference usually for sales or performance. Organizations are now adapting to data dashboards or information dashboards. Identifying what is an information dashboard and what is not might get confusing at times, an information dashboard can be thought of as a set of items that represent any resource, which allows the targeted audience to understand or gain useful insights regarding the data being displayed. This paper discusses about an informational dashboard that can be used by organizations to have a consolidated view of status of all the processes, health of cloud resources and various other operational information spread across multiple platforms for central monitoring and support.

The present study attempts to measure the factors of rural out-migration and to assess the impact of rural out-migration on agriculture mainly on labour availability, crop yield and farm income on agriculture in origin areas of migration mainly of the Scheduled Tribes (ST) and Non-ST communities in Dibrugarh district, Assam due to the fact that there is continuous decline in agricultural cultivators, increase in the slum population and increase in the unemployment rate. A total of 150 samples were collected from the farm households with migrants for more than one year. The rural out-migration from the study areas were mainly dominated by male and mostly by married male migrants of the age-group of 25-34 years old with a monthly income in the range of ₹ 10,000-15,000 in the destination. The push factors such as unemployment, crop failure, lack of unemployment opportunities and pull factors such as better wage, continuous income etc play an important role in the rural out-migration. However, the ST community opines that soil erosion and poor housing condition is a major factor of rural out-migration as they reside near the river Buridehing and flood damages the houses and erodes the soil of the homeland areas of the houses that are just living beside the river and as result of which their homeland area decreases year after year. The ST people migrate to far off places whereas the Non-ST people migrate within the states of the study area. Remittances and the net sown area are the major factors of the impact on agriculture. The impact of rural out-migration is felt in negatively on the labour supply and positively on increase in the land area, increase in food crop production and vegetable production and increase in the flow of income of the household. The Non-ST community find tea plantation is an additional source of income for sustainable living. Migration can be checked if more focus is given on the creation of small and cottage industries along with the optimum utilization of the agricultural resources. Lastly, area-specific programme should be launched to absorb the local skill and unskilled people.

The important goal of cloud computing is to offer larger data center that satisfies the storage requirements of the customer. The entire data can’t be saved in a single server. Cloud provider (CP) has cluster of servers to fulfill the cloud request from various real time applications. The data is fragmented in multiple servers to maintain availability. Since the data request of a customer needs data from various servers, there is a possibility of attaining dead lock. In this paper, an enhanced queuing model is proposed where the cloud request (CR) is received in queuing manner for allocation of resources. A session is created for the CR with the CP resource allocation from cloud severs. This enables to put constraint on the number of CR making a session with CP to avoid resource suppression. The Wait for Resource algorithm is used for allocating the server resources to a CR without deadlock in a session. This enables to forecast the resource requirements prior to resource allocation phase in a session. This makes the dynamic resource allocation efficient and free of deadlock. The results obtained evaluates the proposed model and helps the CP in dynamically choosing the number of server nodes necessary to achieve better performance for an real time application.

This paper aims to develop and evaluate the performance of concrete made with recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) and dune sand (DS) in addition with steel fibers (SF). This work is mainly intended to find the effective ways to reutilize the recycled concrete aggregates as coarse aggregate and due to sand demand dune sand were used as a fine aggregate. Different mechanical and durability properties of recycled concrete aggregates (RCA) and dune sand (DS) concrete mixtures were evaluated. To ensure the properties of cement, fine aggregate, coarse aggregate, recycled concrete aggregate and dune sand preliminary test were determined. Mix design is formulated based on its properties and requirements. Experimentation has been done by using M25 grade concrete. Ordinary Portland cement is used. Fine aggregate and coarse aggregate were partially replaced by recycled concrete aggregates and dune sand at different proportions (25%, 50%, 75%) in addition with 0.25% of steel fibers. Various strengths such as tensile strength, compressive strength, flexure strength and modulus of elasticity are determined. In particular for cube different tests such as non-destructive test (NDT), sorptivity, permeability and acid test has been done. It has been observed that the M2 mix (50% of recycled concrete aggregates and dune sand) has produced better results comparatively.
