With the massive increase of software applications and websites, testing has become a very important concern in the software development process. This is due to the spread of a large number of security flaws. Dynamic testing requires code execution to examine the functional and non-functional behavior of software systems. It requires more time and cost, and it finds fewer bugs. On the other hand

This study presents the simultaneous generation of two uncorrelated and continuous high-quality random bitstreams originating from a single physical system based on confined, nonthermal electrochemical microplasma operating under atmospheric conditions. The randomness is intrinsically inherited from the time-resolved electrical current and optical emission intensities of the microplasma system

This paper aims to study how the agility concept is successfully applied in manufacturing facilities. The study is involved in selecting the industry and the machines for the novel Microfactory established at Nile Preneurs, Nile University, with focus on the sheet metal workshop located in the Microfactory. The recommendations of this work include the most suitable layout, scheduling technique

Determining the optimum product mix under the theory of constraints (TOC) has been considered by many researchers. In most cases, researches consider one scenario with one important aspect which is maximizing the profit by giving the best solution. This paper solves a product mix problem faced by a birds' food production facility. The problem is modeled and solved using two linear programing

Copper is almost inevitable functional filler in the brake-material and efforts to replace it are continuing since it is now known as a hazard to the aquatic life. It is always desirable to search for ingredients for Cu-free brake-pads, which will be beneficial for friction-related properties and especially fade resistance. Attapulgite, is a mineral which was proven to be an excellent substitute

Development and improvement of nanosensors have been active research areas over the last few decades. Many materials and compounds have been investigated for their sensing properties. This work is concerned with developing a new sensing layer for gas sensors based on chitosan as a polymer enhanced with graphene as a nanofiller. The graphene used for preparing the chitosan solution was at 0.1, 0.5

This article proposes a numerical solution approach and Field Programmable Gate Array implementation of a delayed fractional-order system. The proposed method is amenable to a sufficiently efficient hardware realization. The system's numerical solution and hardware realization have two requirements. First, the delay terms are implemented by employing LookUp Tables to keep the already required

Cross-platform development is the practice of developing software products or services for multiple platforms or software environments. The idea of cross-platform development is that a software application or product should work well in more than one specific digital habitat. This capability is typically pursued in order to sell software for more than one proprietary operating system. In general

This paper aims to help self-driving cars and autonomous vehicles systems to merge with the road environment safely and ensure the reliability of these systems in real life. Crash avoidance is a complex system that depends on many parameters. The forward-collision warning system is simplified into four main objectives: detecting cars, depth estimation, assigning cars into lanes (lane assign) and

This paper proposes an experimental verification of a hybrid partial feedback linearization (PFL) and deadbeat (DB) control scheme as in Hamdy et al. (2018) with chaotic whale optimization algorithm (CWOA) for a nonlinear gantry crane (GC) system. The PFL linearizes the nonlinear model to end up with a linear closed-loop system. The DB controller is utilized for the desirable accelerated response
