This paper investigates the feasibility of using photoplethysmographic (PPG) signal for heart rate variability (HRV) using different physiological conditions. In this paper, we have analyzed four physiological conditions i.e.; sitting, standing, laying and jogging. The Easy Pulse sensor module was used to pass the signal sensed by the optical senso

Illumination variation that span globally and locally across the facial surface is one of the most important aspect in designing a robust face recognition system. The illumination variations due to changes in lighting conditions could produce different shape of shading on the face thus deforming the facial features. The effect of these variations i

The loss of the integrity and/or availability of data has the potential to diversely affect power utility core operations. Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system is a computer system for collecting and analyzing data in almost real-time fashion for monitoring purposes. SCADA refers to the combination of telemetry and data acquisiti

Data centers now play an important role in modern IT infrastructures. Although much research efforts has been made in the filed of green computing, performance metrics for green data centers have been left ignored. This paper is devoted to identify and implement energy efficiency and green computing performance metrics in data centers. The metric h

This paper investigates to represent and analyze the Photolythsmographic (PPG) signal on the basis of the Power Spectral Density (PSD) as parameter for the varying physiological conditions. An infra-red optical-sensing device is placed on the finger tip used to sense the blood variation measurement and generates the PPG signal at its output. Easy P

Sticker systems have been introduced by Kari in 1998 as an abstract computational model which uses the Watson-Crick complementary principle of DNA molecules: starting from the incomplete double stranded sequences and iteratively using sticking operations, complete double stranded sequences are obtained. It is known that sticker systems with finite

Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA) system is a computer system for collecting and analysing data in almost real-time fashion for monitoring and control of electric powersystem applications.Thus, communication channels play a core role in SCADA systems implementation. The use of wireless sensor network (WSN) communication can, however,

Introduction: Tualang honey spray is a new dressing agent with potential wound healing quality and outcome compared to other products. The aim of the study is to compare the advantages of Tualang honey versus spray film (Opsite*) as dressing materials following long bone fracture fixations. This is a preliminary study in Malaysia that involve human

Currently, there has been a major health crisis in terms of the shortage of organs. Advances in medicine has improved quality of life and enabled us to live longer. However, as we age, the organs tend to fail more. Although advances in modern surgical have made it possible for someone to have diseased/damaged organs/tissues replaced with healthy li

Tissue engineering is related to the replacement, restoration, repair and/or regeneration of tissues/organs that are tailored to the needs of the individual patient. The potential applications of tissue engineering are being unveiled with much hype and expectations among the scientists and the public at large. The demand for engineered tissues may
