The development of the energy industry in a developing country Asia is undergoing transition process from oil and gas to electrical renewable energy. Based on Government data, share will decrease current 32% 20% 2050, this line with increase penetration electrification other diversification. However, demand for continue significantly due population. PTM, an company country, one its refineries s...

Textile user interfaces for smart homes offer novel intuitive input gestures and may lower acceptance barrier for technophobic or elderly people. To understand the users’ requirements of smart textile input devices, an Adaptive Conjoint Analysis with the attributes wearability, functionality, haptic, location, and components was carried out with 100 participants. The attributes were rated with ...

In this paper, analysis, simulation and design of a distributed amplifier (DA) with 0.13µm CMOS technology in the frequency range of 3-40 GHz is presented. Gain cell is a current reused circuit which is optimum in gain, noise figure, bandwidth and also power dissipation. To improve the noise performance in the frequency range of interest, a T-matching low pass filter LC network which is utilize...

Behaviour responds to both input from the external environment and input from within the organism’s body. Input from the external environment has mainly the function to regulate the execution of the organism’s activities while input from the body is used to decide which activity to execute. We evolve artificial organisms which to survive and reproduce have to both eat food and drink water in eq...

In developing countries, innovation is to a large extent a matter of adoption of advanced technologies but also of conducting internal R&D to be able to better assimilate existing technologies. This paper, based on firm level data from 24 developing countries, examines the roles of internal R&D efforts (MAKE) and external technology sourcing (BUY) in fostering productivity in manufacturing firm...

Three-dimensional (3D) applications have come to every corner of life. We present 3DTouch, a novel 3D wearable input device worn on the fingertip for interacting with 3D applications. 3DTouch is self-contained, and designed to universally work on various 3D platforms. The device employs touch input for the benefits of passive haptic feedback, and movement stability. Moreover, with touch interac...
