This paper describes the real-time implementation of a space-time trellis encoder and decoder using the Xilinx Virtex-4™FX12 FPGA. The code uses a generator matrix designed for 4-state space-time trellis (STT) that uses Quadrature Phase Shift Keying (QPSK) modulation scheme. The decoding process was done using Maximum Likelihood (ML) through the Viterbi Algorithm. The results show that the STT decoder can successfully decipher the encoded symbols from the STT encoder and that it can fully recover the original data in the absence of noise. The data rate of the decoder was 6.25 Msymbols/s. It was shown that 14% of the logic elements in Virtex 4 FPGA were used in implementing an encoder-decoder system.

The demand for electricity is expected to continue to increase given the recent world population projection of about 30 % increase in the next three decades. Consequently power systems are equally expected to be more heavily loaded than before. Unfortunately the environmental and economic constraints restrict the expansion of the existing power system facilities. This scenario requires a constant attention since it could result to voltage collapse which could in turn lead to a total blackout. This paper presents the procedure required to carry out a contingency assessment and ranking of the load buses and lines of power systems for voltage security. This would ensure that power systems are operated above a desired voltage stability margin to forestall voltage collapse. The impact of single line outage contingency on the static voltage stability margin, as well as the available transfer capability across the areas of the test system, are examined in the paper.

The vehicle tracker system uses conventional GSM based communication to monitor the location of an automobile at a remote monitoring station and allow stopping the vehicle when required. The system presents the vehicle driver an option to generate an alert signal at the monitoring station using a secreted switch, when in danger. The system also monitors tracker temperature and operating voltage to ensure the correct operation of the system. The PIC18F452 controller employed provides a single unit compact module with built-in ADC and UART modules. The monitoring software is developed for a user friendly GUI with visual indication of location on Google Earth and easy to understand controls. Continuous or intermittent updating of location is possible as demanded by the situation and status of the monitored vehicle. The system is designed for commercial trackers and can be used for local guidance systems.

Intrusion detection system (IDS) detects intrusion attempts on computer systems. In intrusion detection systems, feature reduction, feature extraction and feature selection play important role in a sense of improving classification accuracy while keeping the computational complexity at minimum. Smurf attack is one of the common denial-of-service attack methods. In this paper, principal component analysis method is used for feature selection and dimension reduction. TCP dump from DARPA98 dataset is used for the experiments. 32 basic features are extracted for the selection of effective features in TCP/IP header to detect Smurf attacks.

CUDA is a platform developed by Nvidia for general purpose computing on Graphic Processing Unit to utilize the parallelism capabilities. Serpent encryption is considered to have high security margin as its advantage; however it lacks in speed as its disadvantage. We present a methodology for the transformation of CPU-based implementation of Serpent encryption algorithm (in C language) on CUDA to take advantage of CUDA's parallel processing capability. The proposed methodology could be used to quickly port a CPU-based algorithm for a quick gain in performance. Further tweaking, as described in this paper through the use of a profiler, would further increase the performance gain. Result based on the integration of multiple block encryption in parallel shows throughput performance of up to 100 MB/s or more than 7X performance gain.

This paper presents needle insertion forces for haptic feedback device in soft tissue. The force information from needle insertions is being measured by the sensor. The force feedback produced by the device is used in robot-assisted percutaneous therapies. The objective of the work reported here is to design a device for reality-based data. Insertion force data was collected on chicken skin and meat. The needle insertion force is modeled in three parts; force due to capsule stiffness, friction and cutting. The data from model is compared with real time force data. From the simulation and experimental results, it is found out that the error between measured and modeled force converges to zero.

Reverse osmosis Desalination plants are a widely used application of water treatment engineering all over the world. Therefore devising control systems for these plants is a must in our modern automated industrial world as different systems has been devised yet their technology became obsolete by time. On the other hand complicated and over rated control systems are not convenient to use with these types of plants, especially for remote areas. Therefore, coming up with a monitoring system to monitor and control a Reverse Osmosis water treatment plant is a convenient solution with computer based software. The plant can be monitored using a PC enhanced with industrial automation software like LABVIEW® and a data acquisition card to build up a SCADA system for the water treatment plant. This work illustrates the structure and the installation of a flexible and low cost SCADA system. An ordinary PC with the appropriate interface and software operates the system. The system is installed to a lab scaled water plant which is designed and built. The system has proved the expediency of PC based SCADA systems over the conventional control systems.

The main focus of this research is to analyze EEG signal of smokers after undergoing Horizontal Rotation (HR) treatment. 21 male smokers were sampled in this study. EEG data was captured before and after HR for 5 sessions. In addition, some demographic data were gathered from the samples to check their smoking habits. It was found that, HR significantly improves the Alpha band that could reduce the smoking habit.
