Quasi-controlled Experimentations on the Impact of AOP on Software Comprehensibility
PublicationAspect-oriented programming (AOP) emerged as a paradigm to modularize the concerns that lead to interwoven code if implemented using traditional programming techniques. Unfortunately, the new constructs introduced by aspect-oriented (AO) languages result in both: (1) obstacles in modular reasoning, and (2) high coupling between aspects and the augmented modules. There have been numerous attempts to tackle these issues, but none...

These parameters can be either measured or calculated. A method of calculation of self and mutual inductances that are parameters of a polyphase model of the motor is presented in the paper. All self-inductances and mutual inductances have been calculated using the...

INFLUENCE OF INLET GEOMETRY ON THE EFFICIENCY OF 1MW STEAM TURBINE
PublicationThe process of the design of the 1MW steam turbine includes designing the stator and rotor blades, the steam turbine inlet and exit, the casing and the rotor. A turbine that operates at rotation speeds other than 3000 rpm requires a gear box and generator with complex electronic software. This paper analyses the efficiency of eight turbine variants, including seven inlet geometries and three stages of stator as well as an eight...

Redesign of the Research Platform for Monitoring, Control and Security of Critical Infrastructure Systems
PublicationCritical Infrastructure Systems (CISs) play a key role in modern societies. Their sustainable operation depends heavily on the performance of dedicated structures and algorithms targeting monitoring, control and security aspects. In previous work a Research Platform (RP) for the design and simulation of such systems was presented. This works updates the information on the RP through the description of major hardware and software...

DS-CDMA receiver in Software Defined Radio technology. Admission to the implementation of a RAKE receiver
PublicationProgrammable radio is one of the latest trends in the construction of multi-standard receivers. The technology, called Software Defined Radio (SDR), is also an ideal test platform that allows to try out different algorithms of signal receiving. This particular feature led to choose this platform to implement a DS-CDMA receiver (Direct Sequence Code Division Multiple Access). The use of SDR allows for a gradual upgrade of data processing...

Policy Monitoring on Accessible Technology for Inclusive Education – Research Findings and Requirements for a Software Tool
PublicationStatistics about disabled people usually do not receive as much attention as statistics highlighting other socio-economic problems. However, such statistics is important due to its actual weight.According to the World Health Organization (WHO), about 15% of the world population, meaning one billion people, live with disabilities, and 80% of them live in developing countries. UNESCO claims that 90% of the children with disabilities...
