The research revealed the need to design an information architecture model for Data Governance initiative that can serve as an intercom between current IT / IS management trends: Information technology (IT) management and information management. A model is needed that strikes a balance between the need to invest in technology and the ability to manage the information that originates from the use of those technologies, as well as to measure with greater precision the generation of IT value through the use of quality information and user satisfaction, using the technologies that make it possible for the information to reach them to be used in their daily work.

In most big cities, firearm assault is a common crime. Some state of the art research aim to recognize firearms once they were fired. However, to prevent this type of criminal behavior it is necessary to detect firearms in real time, before they are fired, and maintaining at minimum false alarms. In this paper, we propose a method to detect hand guns by using its shape and real dimensions. The proposed method is based on statistics invariant moments, image processing algorithms and a neural network classifier. To reduce processing time a GPU processor is utilized. Computer simulations show promising results.

Video background modeling, used to detect moving objects in digital videos, is a ubiquitous pre-processing step in computer vision applications. Principal Component Pursuit (PCP) PCP is among the leading methods for this problem. In this paper we proposed a new convex formulation for PCP, substituting the standard ℓ1 regularization with a projection onto the ℓ1-ball. This formulation offers an advantage over the known incremental PCP methods in practical parameter selection and ghosting suppression, while retaining the ability to be implemented in a fully incremental fashion, keeping all the desired properties related to such PCP methods (low memory footprint, adaptation to changes in the background, computational complexity that allows online processing).

This work provides the guidelines to calculate the size of the DC-link capacitor to contribute with additional energy - for a short period of time - than the photovoltaic panel can supply under normal operating conditions. First, a model of a three-phase electric generation system is used that combines photovoltaic panels and an inverter with an LCL filter at network side. In addition, a control algorithm capable of exchanging between two operating modes is implemented. Indeed, the first one is generated by the MPPT and the second one is generated when the grid demands more energy than the photovoltaic panel can generate. The results show that the PV system can provide additional energy - for a short period of time - from the dc link as emulating a large rotating inertia. The results are shown through simulations under standard test conditions (STC).

The research challenges in the implementation of a methodology of knowledge management, which was executed by an innovative proposal, that takes the advances of the best universities and companies of the world. This paper challenges the status quo in the generation, dissemination, training and feedback of knowledge at the enterprise level. The case of study, presents a detailed description of implementation in Peru. The expert system has 3 components: i) Maturity model, ii) Systems and processes for transversal knowledge management and iii) Information and communication technology systems for easy consultation at all levels. The benefits are: i) To ensure knowledge (retention, diffusion, generation and integration) with the standards needed, ii) To optimize times response: it allows an internationally proven functional model in companies that depend on knowledge, iii) To Verify the information and availability of the tool, without changing the IT conditions.

In this work, a high-level computational environment has been developed for the MIT Electromagnetic Equation Propagation (MEEP) software. Pre-processing and post-processing features have been implemented through the Visualization Toolkit (VTK) framework, in order to provide new graphical features for MEEP. An interactive user interface is available to make a scripting-free MEEP usage. Software engineering techniques have been employed in order to provide a reusable, maintainable, extendable, and integrable software system. Tests show an elaborate electromagnetic simulation scenario in the pre-processing stage, as well as bi-dimensional movies and interactive three-dimensional plan cuts in the post-processing phase.

In this paper, a comparison of IMU-based step length and heading estimation methods for indoor environments is presented. We compared two step detection methods: detecting the stance phase in each stride and detecting negative peaks in the horizontal acceleration filtered signal. Likewise, three step length estimation methods were compared: Zero Velocity Update (ZUPT), step frequency-based and step length parameter-based. Finally, the comparison of two heading estimation methods is presented: Heuristic Heading Reduction (HHR) and Zero Angular Rate update (ZARU). The yaw obtained from the sensor was corrected and compared with both heading estimation methods. All methods were tested at high, normal and low walking frequencies. Both step detections methods showed a good performance at normal and high step frequencies. The step length estimation method that depend of a linear parameter presented an error of 0.3m in a route of 96m and was the one with lowest error. The yaw corrected presents the lowest error of 3° in turns of 90°.

Oscillations are inherent to power systems and the analysis of such phenomena is a fundamental issue for understanding the dynamical behavior of power networks. Knowledge of the system natural frequencies and its associated damping ratio, is useful information for understanding the system performance after being subjected to a disturbance. Topological changes in the transmission network of electrical power systems are quite common due to operational requirements. Such changes may drastically modify both frequency and damping values of the natural oscillation modes. In this paper, identification of the dominant oscillation modes in the Mexican power system is performed using both modal analysis and time domain simulations.

This paper introduces a new antenna model designed to be applied to V2V communications. This antenna can be integrated easily into the automobiles infrastructure and was designed for VANET networks [1] based on LTE technology and IEEE 802.11p standard [2]. The design of this model is based on operating frequencies of these two technologies. In the design process, it was prioritized that each operating frequency had a bandwidth of at least 70MHz, since, VANET networks will use 7 channels of 10MHz [3] each to enable a reliable communication and to offer data traffic services. Moreover, an omnidirectional radiation pattern was obtained in the Fraunhofer zone, good gain and a radiation efficiency [4] close to 1 in all bands of interest, as we will be shown.
