It is generally challenging to tell apart malware from benign applications. To make this decision, human analysts are frequently interested in runtime values: targets of reflective method calls, URLs to which data is sent, target telephone numbers of SMS messages, and many more. However, obfuscation and string encryption, used by malware as well as goodware, often not only render human inspecti...

Based on the complete dynamic calculation method, the layout, force, and strength of harvester boom cylinders were designed and calculated. Closed simulations for the determination of the dynamic responses of the harvester boom during luffing motion considering the cylinder drive system and luffing angle position control have been realized. Using the ADAMS mechanical system dynamics analysis so...

Automatic estimation of the amount of trash, such as branches and leaves, collected by a mechanical citrus harvester during harvesting eliminates problems in the processing plants with handling diseased leaves and fruit. A machine vision system was developed to estimate the amount of trash collected by a citrus canopy shake and catch harvester by acquiring and analyzing the images of the harves...

In recent times, vibration based energy harvesting has drawn attention of many researchers worldwide. This is due to advancement in Microelectromechanical (MEM) devices and wireless sensors with power requirements in range of microwatts-milliWatts; hence vibration energy sources have promising potentials for such demands. Thus, many attempts were made by researchers to develop different system ...

Here, we report a stable and predictable aero-elastic motion in the flow-driven energy harvester, which is different from flapping and vortex-induced-vibration (VIV). A unified theoretical frame work that describes the flutter phenomenon observed in both "stiff" and "flexible" materials for flow driven energy harvester was presented in this work. We prove flutter in both types of materials is t...

Harvesting mechanical energy from human motion is an attractive approach for obtaining clean and sustainable electric energy to power wearable sensors, which are widely used for health monitoring, activity recognition, gait analysis and so on. This paper studies a piezoelectric energy harvester for the parasitic mechanical energy in shoes originated from human motion. The harvester is based on ...

In this paper, we report the development and experiments of IBM Content Harvester (CH), a tool to analyze and recover templates and content from word processor created text documents. CH is part of a bigger effort to collect and reuse material generated in business service engagements. Specifically, it works on unstructured formatted documents and works by extracting content, cleansing off sens...

The South African Sugar Association Experiment Station, Agricultural Engineering Department conducted a series of semi-mechanised versus fully mechanised harvesting trials on a large commercial estate in Swaziland over the 1998/1999, 2000/2001 and 2001/2002 seasons. During the trials machinery performance was measured, differences in the quality of cane delivered to the factory were determined,...

Structural instability caused by self exciting aerodynamic forces (flutter) can be used as an effective input source for small scale energy harvesters. The self exciting aerodynamic force exerted on a T-shape cantilever causes periodic vibration, which can be converted into electric power through an electromagnetic transducer. Due to the complexities inherent in the fluid-structure interaction ...

SUMMARY We have developed a Web-based tool named 'Harvester' that bulk-collects bioinformatic data on human proteins from various databases and prediction servers. The information on every single protein is assembled on a single HTML page as a combination of database screen-shots and plain text. A full text meta search engine, similar to Google trade mark, allows screening of the whole genome p...
