The demand of energy is dramatically increased nowadays and the demand either can renewable or non renewable depends on the drawbacks. Hence, non renewable energies show the better performance where the limitations are comprisable very few and environmental friendly. Already developed countries are being used renewable energies as the main sources of energy to produce electricity where it proved the less easy and more benefits. However, non renewable energies such as natural gas, gas generator and so on  still have been  producing more and more electricity and this amount is around 10 times more than renewable energies especially developing countries like Bangladesh. This paper is being discussed the importance of renewable energies and non renewable energies to produce electricity, comparing the different countries electricity production and the using sources. Here analysis the data of different power plants in Bangladesh and the types of fuel, CO2 emission and electricity production.

Effective Feature Set Selection and Centroid Classifier Algorithm for Web Services Discovery

10.11591/ijeecs.v5.i2.pp441-450
Venkatachalam K , Karthikeyan NK
Text preprocessing and document classification plays a vital role in web services discovery. Nearest centroid classifiers were mostly employed in high-dimensional application including genomics. Feature selection is a major problem in all classifiers and in this paper we propose to use an effective feature selection procedure followed by web services discovery through Centroid classifier algorithm. The task here in this problem statement is to effectively assign a document to one or more classes. Besides being simple and robust, the centroid classifier s not effectively used for document classification due to the computational complexity and larger memory requirements. We address these problems through dimensionality reduction and effective feature set selection before training and testing the classifier. Our preliminary experimentation and results shows that the proposed method outperforms other algorithms mentioned in the literature including K-Nearest neighbors, Naive Bayes classifier and Support Vector Machines.

This paper presents a developed application for using Fraction Order PID controller (FOPID) in controlling of DC motors installed incelestron telescope, this is done through controlling the angles of two DC motors driven the telescope. The model of celestron telescope is mathematically represented by highly non linear differential equations, this types of nonlinear model is recommended to be controlled using Artificial Intelligent based controller. In this paper, optimal fuzzy FOPID is implemented instead of conventional PID controllers. Genetic Algorithm, fuzzy logic are used for  tuning the FOPID parameters.FOPID  controller is based on  position error and its rate of change as an input vector, the proposed controller set presents a complete precision in forcing the telescope motors to satisfy the predefined position. The simulation results show the dynamic response of the system and the enhancement achieved in rising time and settling time when using FOPID. The response of FOPID is compared with the conventional PID with the same input position reference.

Comparative Study on the Effectiveness of UPFC and TCSC for Increasing Power Transfer Capability Applied to Non-linear Load Models

10.11591/ijeecs.v5.i2.pp309-316
S.Ali Abbas Al-Mawsawi
In recent years, studies have been investigated the effectiveness of UPFC and TCSC in increasing power transfer capability. However, the effectiveness of these FACTS devices in increasing power transfer capability when the load is non-linear has not been established in a comparative study yet. This paper will explore the steady-state performance of the UPFC and TCSC as impedance compensation models. The effectiveness of both FACTS devices are investigated when they are installed in multi-machine systems with different non-linear load models. Simulation results demonstrate that, upon installing UPFC, more active and reactive powers are received at the sending end bus for different types of non-linear load models. In addition, both active and reactive powers are more sensitive in changing the modulation index of the converters. Furthermore, both the active and reactive powers are less sensitive to the non-linearity of the load model type. However, active and reactive powers in case of installing TCSC are only sensitive in changing the firing angle (α) when it is between 90º to 110º. Therefore, results from this study clearly encourage the effectiveness of UPFC in comparison to TSCS in terms of increasing power transfer capability applied to non-linear load models.

Text Documents Plagiarism Detection using Rabin-Karp and Jaro-Winkler Distance Algorithms

10.11591/ijeecs.v5.i2.pp462-471
Brinardi Leonardo , Seng Hansun
Plagiarism is an act that is considered by the university as a fraud by taking someone ideas or writings without mentioning the references and claimed as his own. Plagiarism detection system is generally implement string matching algorithm in a text document to search for common words between documents. There are some algorithms used for string matching, two of them are Rabin-Karp and Jaro-Winkler Distance algorithms. Rabin-Karp algorithm is one of compatible algorithms to solve the problem of multiple string patterns, while, Jaro-Winkler Distance algorithm has advantages in terms of time. A plagiarism detection application is developed and tested on different types of documents, i.e. doc, docx, pdf and txt. From the experimental results, we obtained that both of these algorithms can be used to perform plagiarism detection of those documents, but in terms of their effectiveness, Rabin-Karp algorithm is much more effective and faster in the process of detecting the document with the size more than 1000 KB.

Raghu Thumu , K. Harinadha Reddy
Now-a-days Renewable Energy Sources became an alternative to meet the increasing load demand because they are environmental friendly and also available abundant in nature. Among the Renewable Energy Sources, the Photo Voltaic (PV) System is gaining more attention due abundant availability of solar energy. The Maximum Power Point Tracking Technique is used to extract maximum power from the Photo Voltaic (PV) Array. When there is a need to transfer bulk amount of power from PV Array to Power Grid, the power quality issues, especially the real and reactive power flow problems, are a major concern. In this paper a novel control technique was proposed to control the power flow and to deal with power quality issues that arise when PV Array is integrated with power grid. It consists of a Fuzzy-GA based Cascaded Controller fed Flexible AC Transmission System device, namely Unified Power Flow Controller, for effective control of real and reactive power flow in grid connected photovoltaic system. The output of the Fuzzy Logic Controller is a control vector which is fine tuned by using Genetic Algorithm approach.

10.11591/ijece.v7i1.pp1-11
Tariq Benamimour , Amar Bentounsi , Hind Djeghloud
Based on exhaustive review of the state of the art of the electric generators fitted to Wind Energy Conversion System (WECS), this study is focused on an innovative machine that is a Variable Reluctance Generator (VRG). Indeed, its simple and rugged structure (low cost), its high torque at low speed (gearless), its fault-tolerance (lowest maintenance), allow it to be a potential candidate for a small wind power application at variable wind speed. For better accuracy, a finite element model of a studied doubly salient VRG is developed using open source software FEMM to identify the electromagnetic characteristics such as linkage flux, torque or inductance versus rotor position and stator excitation. The obtained data are then transferred into  look-up tables of MATLAB/Simulink to perform various simulations. Performance of the proposed wind power system is analyzed for several parameters and results are discussed.

Divya Dhawan , Neena Gupta
This paper addresses the performance analysis of OFDM transmission system based on coherent detection over high speed long haul optical links with high spectral efficiency modulation formats such as Quadrature Amplitude Modulation (QAM) as a mapping method prior to the OFDM multicarrier representation. Post compensation is used to compensate for phase noise effects. Coherent detection for signal transmitted at bit rate of 40 Gbps is successfully achieved up to distance of 3200km. Performance is analyzed in terms of Symbol Error Rate and Error Vector Magnitude by varying Optical Signal to Noise Ratio (OSNR) and varying the length of the fiber i.e transmission distance. Transmission performance is also observed through constellation diagrams at different transmission distances and different OSNRs.
