In this paper, we presented issues, challenges, and solutions of videoconference system for rural education. First, we discussed several issues on the implementation of videoconference system for education, particulary in rural area in Indonesia, which covered videoconference requirement, rural condition, and education needs. Second, we presented several challenges consisted of choosing videoconference technology, choosing compression method, system and application development, ensuring quality of services, and ensuring quality of experiences. Based on the issues and challenges, we proposed a solution of videoconference system which is specifically deployed in rural education. The solution was based on WebRTC technology implemented in Intel i5 core miniPC choosen to increase portability of the system. A STUN server was built on Javascript to facilitate communication between each client terminal. A simple and intuitive user interface was designed to facilitate the use of application by rural people. The system was deployed at two elementary schools in Cianjur, West Java, representing rural education in Indonesia. From the experiment, we obtained video sent data rate 82 kbit/s, video received data rate 245 kbit/s, average delay 316 ms and packet lost rate 1.32%. The experiment results showed that the audio and video quality can be accepted by users to implement distance learning.

Customers’ Perception Towards Services of Telecommunications Operators

10.11591/ijict.v6i3.pp146-154
Driss Ait Omar , Mohamed Baslam , Mourad Nachaoui , And Mohamed Fakir
Currently the operators in the telecommunications market present offers of subscription to the consumers,and given that competition is strong in this area, most of these advertising offers are prepared to attract and / or keep customers.For this reason, customers face problems in choosing operators that meet their needs in terms of price, quality of service (QoS), etc..., while taking into account the margin between what is advertising and what is real. Therefore, we are led to solve a problem of decision support. Mathematical modeling of this problem led to the solution of an inverse problem. Specifi-cally, the inverse problem is to find the real Quality of Service (QoS) function knowing the theoretical QoS. To solve this problem we have reformulated in an optimization problem of minimizing the difference between the real quality of service (QoS) and theoretical (QoS). This model will help customers who seek to know the degree of sincerity of Their operators, as well as it is an opportunity for operators who want to maintain their resources so that they gain the trust of customers. The resulting optimization problem is solved using evolutionary algorithms. The numerical results showed the reliability and credibility of our inverse model and the performance and effectiveness of our approach.

The Kyoto Protocol is a protocol that highlights on greenhouse gases that have been adopted by many countries. Based on this protocol, power plants that produce emissions are encouraged to pay compensation. Conventionally, optimization of fuel mix in the electric power system components has not involved emission charges on the electricity system. This paper proposes a single objective function of amathematical model for the calculation of power flow optimization involving greenhouse gas emissions costs to the fuel cost function. The single objective function derived using the mathematical model approach with linear heat rate function, in order to get the relationship between the fuel cost function with GHG emission. Namely, the function of energy costs as a combination of fuel costs and GHG emission costs can be shown as a quadratic function.

Regulations in customs and Excise have an important function in regulating legally every policy and decision making. Thus, the type of rules are made varies according to the hierarchy of the regulator. This regulation is also changing, following policy developments that occured in the higgest government. then, what if this organization has not been able to manage its regulatory archiving? even regulatory changes can not be tracked? So, we need a well-organized system that can accomodate all of the rules and the associated changes and connectedness with other type of regulations. This system will help us to provide convenience to users to search, manage and track the history of changes as well as the relationship between the rules used by the organization. This paper propose the design of an ontology-based semantic network using a graph database that use neo4j 2.3.1 as a solution. In the application that uses the sample data, we found 13 types of nodes that contains 242 child nodes and 22 type of relation that contain 548 relation that connect all the node within 3305ms.

We have built and characterized silica on silicon switching devices fabricated by using the electron beam irradiation. It is based on Mach-Zehnder structure fabricated on silica on silicon layers where the upper cladding used the MgF2 layers to bury the core. The switching speed of 2.0 s has been achieved. To further increase the switching speed we have used larger voltage to the Ti heating electrode to increase the thermo optics effects on silica structures. The higher driving voltage have been used that falls to zero exactly as the first extinction is reached, therefore three fold increase in modulation speed is achieved.

Mohamed Boussif , Nourredinne Aloui , Adnene Cherif
In this paper, we present a new method for medical images security dedicated to m-Health based on a combination between a novel semi reversible watermarking approach robust to JPEG compression, a new proposed fragile watermarking and a new proposed encryption algorithm. The purpose of the combination of these three proposed algorithms (encryption, robust and fragile watermarking) is to ensure the full protection of medical image, its information and its report in terms of confidentiality and reliability (authentication and integrity). A hardware implementation to evaluate our system is done using the Texas instrument C6416 DSK card by converting m-files to C/C++ using MATLAB coder. Our m-health security system is then run on the android platform. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm can achieve high security with good performance.

One of new mobile technology is being developed by 3GPP is Long-Term Evolution (LTE). LTE usually used by user because provide high data rate. Many traffic sending over LTE, makes several users didn’t get good Quality of Service (QoS). Traffic diversion is needed to increasing QoS value. It can be done with offloading data method from LTE to Wi-Fi network. This paper using 802.11ah standard to evaluate Wi-Fi network. IEEE 802.11ah have 1000 meters coverage area and efficiency energy mechanism, which is proposed for M2M in 5G techonology. Some research has proven that traffic diversion with offloading can increasing network performance. The contribution of this paper is to evaluate the impact of traffic offload between LTE and IEEE 802.11ah standard. This paper propose two scenarios using increment number of user and increment mobility speed of user to evaluate throughput and delay value before and after the offload process. The simulation will simulate using Network Simulator-3. We can conclude that network performance after offloading is better for every scenario. For increment number of user scenario, throughput value increasing 29.08%, and delay decreasing 8.12%. Scenario with increment mobility speed of user obtain throughput value increasing 37,57%, and delay value decreasing 27.228%.
