This work focuses on several synthetizations developed in both 32nm and 500nm technologies to evaluate the performance differences of MD5 Crypto-Processor. We decided to conduct a topographical synthesis instead of a nontopographical synthesis as it takes more parameters into account to create a more accurate design. We started by comparing some basic cells like inverters and register banks to understand the main differences between the two technologies. Several approaches were considered at this point to understand how different synthetization parameters affect the chip performance and characteristics. These different approaches were focused on time, power and area, and balanced configurations of synthesis flow. Finally, after comparing the performance given by the different approaches in basic digital structures, the balanced approach was implemented in 32nm and benchmarked with the 500nm implementation. Our conclusions were consistent among the various tests conducted and by downscaling we can expect a 10x increase in the clock frequency, a 100x decrease in power consumption, and around a 300x decrease in the area while using the 32nm technology. As a result, we developed a method to fairly compare complex systems to allow a designer to consider if the benefits justify the costs for a technology change.

Pilot bus selection is a key parameter to the proper function of secondary voltage control strategies; this paper proposes a methodology for pilot bus selection using data mining algorithms K-means and DBSCAN. The data was generated by varying distribution network parameters and simulating the voltage profile using OpenDSS software. The methodology was implemented in IEEE 13 and 34 node test feeder standard distribution networks to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

The focus of this work is to test the security offered by Text-based CAPTCHAs. We present different types of CAPTCHAs and a preprocessing and segmentation process to clean noise in CAPTCHA images and crop digits or characters in single images. We present a convolutional neural network architecture trained under several hyperparameters, comparing multiple models with different batch sizes, epochs, and optimizers. We confirmed that using Text-based CAPTCHAs is no longer a secure mechanism for protection because, with simple computer vision techniques and current machine learning algorithms, they can be broken. We achieved a 90.49% accuracy with our model trained with a mix of four datasets and up to 97.10% with one dataset, which is enough to consider these schemes insecure in practice.

A practical testbed is crucial to reduce the gap between theory and real-world applications. Path-planning and collision prevention routines are essential for a reliable operation of these multi-robot platforms, so increasingly complex control algorithms can be proposed, designed and tested. This paper describes the recent progress made on the functionality of a mini-sized multi-robot testbed that runs based on ROS (Robotic Operating System). A high-level path planner, a collision prevention routine and motion controllers are proposed as part of the expansion to more complex applications that can run on the testbed. A PID-based orientation controller and an Inverse Kinematics position controller are designed and compared as viable solutions for following the waypoints generated by the high-level path planner. Improvements on software modularity, scalability and the addition of an extra mobile agent also comprise the main improvements for this new iteration of the testbed. The results of the path-planning routine, as well as the performance of the motion controllers are presented and discussed.

The research studies the problem that arises in the presence of temporary delays in control schemes. Delays cause a reduction in controller performance and can even cause system instability. In this work, control techniques dedicated to the attenuation of adverse effects in the trajectory tracking scheme with constant delays in time are implemented. The controllers analyzed are PD-Like, and Sliding Mode Controller (SMC); the compensator Smith Predictor is implemented. The MobileSim simulator is used with the Pioneer 3DX unicycle mobile robot model. The effectiveness of the control strategies is verified with the ISE performance index (Integral of Squared Error).

In Peru, 5.2% of all the population are people with motor disabilities. Some of these with congenital malformations or forearm amputations suffer from difficulties within society to carry out their activities of daily living. Many times, they choose to use a cosmetic prosthesis, since a bionic one is very expensive. Today, thanks to 3D printing, it is possible to manufacture affordable bionic prosthesis. For this reason, the innovative research was carried out from 2019 to 2020 under the supervision of the School of Mechatronics Engineering at Ricardo Palma University, it was designed and developed in the Digital Systems Laboratory resulting in iROD, a bionic prosthesis for a person with amputation at the level of the middle third of the forearm applying EMG signals. In addition, this device captures EMG signals from the forearm using dry electrodes for greater patient comfort. For the development, the biomechanical concepts of the human hand were used, where SolidWorks was used for the mechanisms and then to be printed in 3D, Eagle for the electrical and electronic system, and Arduino IDE for the control system. This prosthesis was designed for Mr. Franz Dioses, a person with an amputation at the level of the middle third of the forearm, helping to carry out his activities of daily living. In conclusion, this bionic prosthesis is the functional prototype, being the beginning of a more advanced one, improving the mechanical system and including control with artificial intelligence. It is proposed to start in September 2021 to design and develop these improvements.

In this document, two linearization techniques are applied to level control in a conical tank. Also, this control represents a significant challenge because of a constantly varying section with height and its nonlinearity, so many control schemes were carried out. To obtain the linear model for the conical tank, first technique is the empiric linearization from data of the process. The reaction curve method is used, and the characteristic parameters are obtained. Another method is the coordinate transformation in the system is decomposed into two nonlinear functions g(x) and q(v,x). Consequently, using both linearization procedures, a sliding mode controller is designed and applied to a conic tank to compare the performance obtained from each technique. The proposed controller shows robustness and rejects the disturbances better than the typical PID controller.

This article shows useful details about testing protective relays with signals that include effects of travelling waves. Test signals were obtained from two electromagnetic transient programs: a) RSCAD for RTDS, which is a real-time tool; b) Matlab/Simulink, for off-line tests with an injector. Furthermore, test signals were obtained using two models for the faulted transmission line (Bergeron model and a frequency-dependent model). The tested relays were a travelling wave relay (SEL-T400L) and two distance relays (SEL-421 and Micom P545). The tests with RTDS were performed at the low-level interface of SEL relays, whereas the tests with the inj ector were performed at the usual voltage and current inputs of distance relays. In general, the results are useful to emphasize the need of contrasting the expected output signals with oscilloscope captured waveforms, because the expected output signals (as shown by injectors' interfaces) can be different than the real injected signals. Despite this fact, the observed behavior of tested relay functions can be considered adequate.

In this work, an Android mobile application named BeetleID was developed to detect ladybird beetles through image pre-processing methods and a deep learning convolutional neural network model. The image pre-processing module consists of three main algorithms: saliency map, active contour, and superpixel segmentation. The used convolutional neural network was validated with a 2611 image set of ladybird beetle species with a five-fold cross-validation method. It achieved accuracy and area under the curve of the receiver operating characteristic scores of 0.92 and 0.98, respectively. Furthermore, the application's feasibility was assessed by the mean execution time and battery consumption metrics of mobile emulators, phone Pixel 3a XL and tablet Pixel C, which obtained 16.32 and 18.43 seconds 0.07 and 0.11 milliampere-hour, respectively. These results prove that the proposed application is an excellent solution, with a few optimization issues, for specialists to detect ladybird beetles in wildlife environments accurately.

We implemented two prototype monitoring stations that would allow to measure electromagnetic field changes in a volcano due to eruptive processes, intending to improve the early warning system of Instituto Geofisico EPN in case of volcanic eruptions. The new stations are made of electromagnetic field sensors and innovative wireless technology with low power consumption. As a proof of concept, we monitored the magnetic field and seismic signals in the moderately active Chiles-Cerro Negro volcanic complex in Ecuador during a first survey in October 2020. Distinct anomalies in the magnetic field were observed in the geothermal areas in Chiles volcano when the seismic activity was high. Magnetic field variations and seismic activity were observed simultaneously and associated with each other, however further research is still needed in order to determine whether magnetic field variations can be associated to seismic signals and quantify this impact.
