Android Mobile devices are secured using various mechanisms like pattern, pin, and password. Biometric Authentication is an upcoming technology accepted by various android mobile manufactures for better security and with change in technology, time this mechanisms are vulnerable to various attacks like factory reset. Factory Reset will erase all the settings in the device and makes device vulner...

We address the problem of designing a distributed, hybrid factory given a description of an assembly process and a palette of controllers for basic assembly operations. In particular, we present a method that, starting with a product assembly graph (PAG), allows us to \com-pile" a factory description, consisting of a geometry and a hybrid, dy-namical system representing the motions of robots on...

Due to shorter product lifecycles and a rising complexity of the products more and more enterprises consider using the Digital Factory. The Digital Factory is an IT system capable of digitally planning, controlling and optimizing all resources and activities related to a product which are performed beginning with product development and ending in the order processing – prior to the start of the...

A factory has a production plan to produce products which are created from number of components and thus create profit. During financial crisis, the factory cannot afford to purchase all the necessary items as usual. Mining of erasable itemsets finds the itemsets which can be eliminated and do not greatly affect the factory's profit. The managers uses erasable itemset (EI) mining to locate...

Agent Factory is a cohesive framework for the development and deployment of multi-agent systems. Since its inception in the mid 1990s, Agent Factory has gone through a metamorphosis process, whereby several new extensions, revisions, and enhancements have been made. This chapter provides a discussion of the incremental developments in Agent Factory and provides motivations as to why such change...

To be useful in practice, a factory production schedule must reflect the influence of a large and conflicting set of requirements, objectives and preferences. Human schedulers are typically overburdened by the complexity of this task, and conventional computer-based scheduling systems consider only a small fraction of the relevant knowledge. This article describes research aimed at providing a ...

Abstract—Soil samples were collected from and around Alkomos cement factory, Alkomos town, Libya. Soil physiochemical properties were determined. In addition, olive leaves were scanned for their fungal content. This work can conclude that the results obtained for the examined physiochemical characteristics of soil in the area studied prove that cement dust from the Alkomos cement factory in Lib...

Introduction: The Failure Mode and Effects Analysis (FMEA), first of all, identifies dangerous modes in a process and, then, provides proper control measures that are required to reduce the level of risk. This study aims to investigate the risk level before and after the implementation of control measures in an edible oil factory. Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted in an edibl...

introduction the historical experience of development process in developed countries revealed that rural development is a basic requirement for national development and that it should be considered and given high priority. accordingly in iran, the government also paid more attention to rural development in recent years. in this regard, different methods and approaches were implemented due to so...

Factory. The abstract factory pattern provides an interface to creating a family of related objects without specifying their concrete classes. Often when using reusable software, such as object-oriented frameworks, selecting one type of component in part of the framework restricts the selection of component types in other parts of the framework. The typical example are user-interface frameworks...
