radio frequency identification (rfid) is used to identify the characteristics of an object wirelessly using radio waves. the purpose of this technology in this study is mainly focused on healthcare for inventory management and theft control replacing the manual logs. the storage and tracking of high-cost inventory items is developed. automatic reordering and billing interfaces are designed for ...

This paper investigates the integration of on-line and offline diagnostic algorithms for aircraft gas turbine engines. The on-line diagnostic algorithm is designed for in-flight fault detection. It continuously monitors engine outputs for anomalous signatures induced by faults. The off-line diagnostic algorithm is designed to track engine health degradation over the lifetime of an engine. It es...

Web crawlers have been used for nearly a decade as a search engine component to create and update large collections of documents. Typically the crawler and the rest of the search engine are not closely integrated. If the purpose of a search engine is to have as large a collection as possible to serve the general Web community, a close integration may not be necessary. However, if the search eng...

This paper presents the challenges and possibilities that arise from the integration of a 2D physics engine into an adventure game platform (i.e. engine and editor). This integration allows the use of a complex physics model within a narrative environment, thus increasing expressiveness and educational potential (through re-usability and increased challenge). In this work eAdventure is used as ...

CARROT2 is a distributed information retrieval system. The backbone IR engine in CARROT2 is currently a piece of legacy software called Managing Gigabytes. It is the goal of this project to implement a different IR engine as CARROT2’s backbone -a piece of legacy software called TELLTALE. In this paper, we discuss some other legacy integrations, some of the concepts and ideas critical to legacy ...

We would like to discuss with workshop participants the iTrails framework for pay-as-you-go information integration, which was recently presented at VLDB 2007 [1]. iTrails allows users to provide mini-mappings on their data that sharply increase the quality of search results. The core idea is to extend the semantics of a standard graphical search engine such that the quality of search results a...

Abstract It is envisaged that future civil aero-engines will operate with ultra-high bypass ratios to reduce the specific fuel consumption. To achieve expected benefits from new engine cycles, these powerplants may mount compact nacelles. For configurations aerodynamic coupling between powerplant and airframe increase. this reason, it required quantify further understand effects of aircraft int...
