A hybrid method has been suggested for optimal placement of multiple renewable distribution generations (RDGs) in microgrid system. The analytical approaches have not been appropriated for optimal placements of multiple solar photovoltaic (SPV) based on RDGs alone. In this work, hybridization of a fuzzy method and particle swarm optimization (PSO) search for the optimal placement of multiple RDGs in microgrid systems for decreasing the active power loss has been proposed. In this approach, the sizes of RDGs are evaluated at every bus by PSO method while the locations are determined by fuzzy based technique. The objective function (OBF) has been minimized under operating constraints. The improvements in nodal voltage profile have been observed. To confirm the proposed hybrid approach, results have been compared with bat algorithm (BA) technique and existing fast improved analytical (IA) method results. The suggested technique has been tested on 33-bus and 69-bus microgrid system.

Spurred by a global energy crisis, the use of renewable distributed generation (DG) with solar photovoltaic (PV) energy, micro-hydro power, and biomass power are gaining momentum and play major role in Bali’s distribution system as an alternative distribution system planning option. If distributed generation planning is optimal by selected optimization of multi-objective function under certain operating constraints and then their site and size are also selected optimally, the penetration of DGs is potentially beneficial. This paper would review techno-economic model objective, voltage profile improvement and power losses constraints as well as optimization based model using particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm application in Bali’s distributed generation planning.

Shohag Barman , Hira Lal Gope , M M Manjurul Islam , Md Mehedi Hasan , Umme Salma
Software industries face a common problem which is the maintenance cost of industrial software systems. There are lots of reasons behind this problem. One of the possible reasons is the high maintenance cost due to lack of knowledge about understanding the software systems that are too large, and complex. Software clustering is an efficient technique to deal with such kind of problems that arise from the sheer size and complexity of large software systems. Day by day the size and complexity of industrial software systems are rapidly increasing. So, it will be a challenging task for managing software systems. Software clustering can be very helpful to understand the larger software system, decompose them into smaller and easy to maintenance. In this paper, we want to give research direction in the area of software clustering in order to develop efficient clustering techniques for software engineering. Besides, we want to describe the most recent clustering techniques and their strength as well as weakness. In addition, we propose genetic algorithm based software modularization clustering method. The result section demonstrated that proposed method can effectively produce good module structure and it outperforms the state of the art methods.

10.11591/ijeecs.v4.i2.pp479-485
Made Sudarma , Sri Ariyani , Manuh Artana
Balinese people have one of the civilization history and cultural heritage are handwritten in Balinese script on palm leaves known as Balinese Papyrus (LontarAksara Bali). Until now that cultural heritage is still continuously strived its preservation along with the implementation begin to be abandoned in public life. Some of Balinese Papyrus now begin to rot and fade under influenced by age. Information technology utilization can be a tool to solve the problems faced in the preservation of the Balinese papyrus. By using digital image processing techniques, the papyrus script can be reconstructed digitally so that it can be retrieved and store the content in the digital media. Balinese papyrus reconstructed through several processes from scanning into a digital image, performing preprocessing for image quality improvement, segmenting the Balinese characters on image, doing character recognition using LDA algorithm, rearranging the result of recognition in accordance with the original content in papyrus, and translating that characters result into Latin. LDA algorithm quite successfully performs the classification associated with handwritten character recognition.

Shuyue Wu
A verifiable quantum secret sharing protocol model is proposed based on entanglement swapping. The dealer communicates with the participants one by one. The detection pattern or information pattern are choosed by uniform distribution, until he can make sure the information safe to the participant, and then he communicates with the next participant. This agreement not only is to avoid eavesdropping outside, and it can prevent internal fraud, thus the accuracy and security are ensured for information sharing, the verifiable results are achieved.

Random Sampling and Signal Bregman Reconstruction Based on Compressed Sensing

10.11591/ijeecs.v4.i2.pp365-372
Guojun Qin , Jingfang Wang
Compressed sensing (CS) sampling is a sampling method which is based on the signal sparse. Much information can be extracted from as little as possible of the data by applying CS and this method is the idea of great theoretical and applied prospects. In the framework of compressed sensing theory, the sampling rate is no longer decided in the bandwidth of the signal, but it depends on the structure and content of the information in the signal. In this paper, the signal is the sparse in the Fourier transform and random sparse sampling is advanced by programing random observation matrix for peak random base. The signal is successfully restored by the use of Bregman algorithm. The signal is described in the transform space, and a theoretical framework is established with a new signal descriptions and processing. By making the case to ensure that the information loss, signal is sampled at much lower than the Nyquist sampling theorem requiring rate,but also the signal is completely restored in high probability. The random sampling has following advantages: alias-free sampling frequency need not obey the Nyquist limit and higher frequency resolution.

Gst Ayu Vida Mastrika Giri , Agus Harjoko
Effective music recommendation can decrease listener’s effort in choosing music that will be listened. Music recommendation is not only can be obtained based on genre or audio similarity, because listener’s music choices are also influenced by the listener’s context (mood, occasion, part of day, date, weather, region, month, and weekday). This research used Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) for determining music recommendation based on listener’s context data and also Self Organizing Map (SOM) which is used as an indexing method in CBR. Inputs given by user to the system are user’s occasion and mood desired by user. The system output is a playlist consists of music that suitable with user’s context and desired mood.

This paper presents an alternative method to reduce the monthly electricity bill at Centre of Excellence for Renewable Energy (CERE) which is by installing a stand-alone photovoltaic (PV) system. In the stand-alone PV system, apart from the PV module and loads, other components in the system such as battery, charge controller, inverter and protection device are categorized under Balance of System (BOS) component. In order for the loads to receive adequate energy to operate, the overall system must be sized through calculations due to find the optimum combination. This sizing will determine the amount of each component that needed in the system. The hardware is setup in front of CERE building which located at Kangar, Perlis, Malaysia. As the results from the calculation, the system required 6 units of PV module, 5 units of battery and a 0.23 kW inverter. The cable and protection devices are from the calculation. The entire system was successfully installed and was able to support the load demand.

A Robust Control with the Combination of Fuzzy and SMC to Stabilize the Power System

10.11591/ijeecs.v4.i2.pp341-353
Mohammadreza Barzegaran , Sana Tajvidi
Common power system stabilizer (CPSS), fuzzy power system stabilizer (FPSS) and sliding mode controller (SMC) are common controllers which are used in controlling single machine infinite bus (SMIB) power systems. Each of these controllers has disadvantages. CPSS is not robust enough to stabilize the power system perfectly. SMC is more robust than CPSS but in the presence of big uncertainties it is unable to stabilize power system. FPSS is enough robust in the presence of big uncertainties, but it causes chattering when high switching gain is needed. The goal of this paper is to present a robust controller for a single machine infinite bus (SMIB). The proposed controller is a direct fuzzy controller assisted with a sliding mode controller. The simulation shows clear positive effect and validity of the method in convergence, time and accuracy.
