Suburban, exurban, and rural development in the United States consumes nearly 1 million hectares of land per year and is a leading threat to biodiversity. In response to this threat, conservation development has been advanced as a way to combine land development and land conservation while providing functional protection for natural resources. Yet, although conservation development techniques h...

There are two main issues to be resolved in order that design tools can be used in cooperative mode, each communicating with the other. Firstly, there is a need to put in place a consistent product model of a building and its systems from which disparate design tools can obtain their inputs and return their outputs. Secondly, there is the requirement to manage the transactions between users and...

To solve the problems of high rhizome damage and low net cutting during carrot combine harvesting, following research was performed. The designed stem- leaf-cutting device taken as object, a bionic design idea adopted. MATLAB software used to extract optimize tibial curve mantis forelimb, its shape applied edges single-disc rotating cutter straight fixed cutter, whose key structural parameters ...

In view of the difficulty in diagnosing and discriminating fault conditions during operation combine harvesters, real-time processing health status, low timeliness processing, a comprehensive maintenance platform for harvesters was developed this study which realized functions data monitoring full harvester. At same time, through platform, harvester information obtained real-time, diagnosis res...

Distributed directory protocols for shared objects play an important role in providing access to higher level abstractions like transactional memory. They offer primitives to retrieve data and read it, or to move data and allow to write it. This chapter describes directory protocols for large-scale distributed systems and discusses the subtleties of incorporating them in a large-scale distribut...

Wireless autonomous sensor systems become steadily standard components in our environment and they become smaller, cheaper and more sophisticated. Energy harvesters fabricated by micro-system technology can realize the autonomy of those systems. An overview of latest results and remaining challenges will be given with the focus on vibration energy harvesters. These harvesters are of specific in...

Rice is one of the commodities as an ingredient to meet basic needs community and a source income for farmers. Lambunot Village villages in Simpang Tiga Subdistrict, Aceh Besar Regency which last 2 years has switched using modern rice harvester combine harvesting process. The advantages this tool are that it can reduce yield loss, labor agricultural tools, shorten time, so considered increase u...

This paper considers the regulation of a natural resource within a dynamic common agency framework. In setting harvest quotas, the regulator responds to lobbying pressure (contributions) from harvesters and conservationists. The truthful Markov perfect equilibrium stock is then an increasing function of the effective political weight for conservationists. Since the contributions to the regulato...

With the entry into force of Decree Government Russian Federation on traceability grain, agricultural producers are obliged to promptly enter data grain harvested from fields and place its storage information system. For guaranteed entry, it is proposed implement, in parallel with existing procedure, a receipt accounting system based tracking geolocation reloading combine vehicles for transport...
