Recording and processing physiological signal that give intrinsic characteristics information is one of scientific community needs. Electromyography (EMG) and Electrical Impedance Myography (EIMG) are both non-invasive approaches to measure and evaluate the muscle conditions and activity. Z-RPI device is a custom-made measurement device developed basically for ECG and ICG records. This paper presents the feasibility of acquiring surface EMG and EIMG signal of biceps and forearm muscle contractions using the Z-RPI device. The results obtained are acceptable, encouraging and converge to literature result. Thus, it shows that the Z-RPI device can be used for relatively several biomedical applications other than the ECG and ICG measurement. For supporting developers in research and engineering education.

Simulation is an interesting technique to represent and predict the behavior of complex system such as wind turbines. In order to get accurate representation of the real turbines, the main factors influencing the operating state of the system must be considered during the development of the model. Stochastic dependencies between components are among the important factors in determining reliability and unexpected system's failures. The main objective of our work is developing a multiagent simulator using the Netlogo platform that allows the representation of the behavior of a wind turbine and different failure scenarios considering the impact of stochastic inter-components dependencies, weather conditions and system configuration. A comparison between the reliability parameters is performed in both conditions (dependent and independent components). The results obtained show the usefulness of considering the existence of stochastic dependencies when predicting and optimizing the wind turbines reliability and availability.

Over the last decades, the digital age has changed our daily individual experiences, and even more, it has impacted our societies in many ways and through several technologies, serving thus different fields and various communities. Particularly, both patients and healthcare professionals are given new opportunities by utilizing suitable systems and applications that are specially designed and developed to cater to their specific needs within healthcare institutions and beyond. This paper gives insight into the design and implementation of a full-Web national telemedicine portal for Algerian hospitals. The still ongoing project requires many phases, the first steps are here described and some challenges are briefly discussed as well.
