As a new technology, blockchain provides the necessary capabilities to assure data integrity and data security through encryption. Mostly, all existing algorithms that provide security rely on the process of discovering a suitable key. Hence, key generation is considered the core of powerful encryption. This paper uses Zernike moment and Mersenne prime numbers to generate strong prime numbers by extracting the features from biometrics (speech). This proposed system sends these unique and strong prime numbers to the RSA algorithm to generate the keys. These keys represent a public address and a private key in a cryptocurrency wallet that is used to encrypt transactions. The benefit of this work is that it provides a high degree

Robots have become an essential part of modern industries in welding departments to increase the accuracy and rate of production. The intelligent detection of welding line edges to start the weld in a proper position is very important. This work introduces a new approach using image processing to detect welding lines by tracking the edges of plates according to the required speed by three degrees of a freedom robotic arm. The two different algorithms achieved in the developed approach are the edge detection and top-hat transformation. An adaptive neuro-fuzzy inference system ANFIS was used to choose the best forward and inverse kinematics of the robot. MIG welding at the end-effector was applied as a tool in this system, and the wel

The use of online social network (OSN) has become essential to humans' lives whether for entertainment, business or shopping. This increasing use of OSN motivates designing and implementing special systems that use OSN users' data to provide better user experience using machine learning and data mining algorithms and techniques. One system that is used extensively for this purpose is friend recommendation system (FRS) in which it recommends users to other users in professional or entertaining online social networks.

For this purpose, this study proposes a novel friend recommendation system, namely Hybrid Friend Recommendation (FR) model. The Hybrid model applies dual-stage methodology on unlabeled data of 1241 users collected fro

The Internet of Things (IoT) is an information network that connects gadgets and sensors to allow new autonomous tasks. The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) refers to the integration of IoT with industrial applications. Some vital infrastructures, such as water delivery networks, use IIoT. The scattered topology of IIoT and resource limits of edge computing provide new difficulties to traditional data storage, transport, and security protection with the rapid expansion of the IIoT. In this paper, a recovery mechanism to recover the edge network failure is proposed by considering repair cost and computational demands. The NP-hard problem was divided into interdependent major and minor problems that could be solved in polynomial t

       In recent years, encryption technology has been developed rapidly and many image encryption methods have been put forward. The chaos-based image encryption technique is a modern encryption system for images. To encrypt images, it uses random sequence chaos, which is an efficient way to solve the intractable problem of simple and highly protected image encryption. There are, however, some shortcomings in the technique of chaos-based image encryption, such limited accuracy issue. The approach focused on the chaotic system in this paper is to construct a dynamic IP permutation and S-Box substitution by following steps. First of all, use of a new IP table for more diffusion of al

       In this work, a pollution-sensitive Photonic Crystal Fiber (PCF) based on Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) technology is designed and implemented for sensing refractive indices and concentrations of polluted  water . The overall construction of the sensor is achieved by splicing short lengths of PCF (ESM-12) solid core on one side with traditional multimode fiber (MMF) and depositing a gold nanofilm of 50nm thickness on the end of the PCF sensor. The PCF- SPR experiment was carried out with various samples of polluted water including(distilled water, draining water, dirty pond water, chemical water, salty  water and oiled water). The location of the resonant wavelength peaks is seen to move to longer wavelengths (red shift)

Any software application can be divided into four distinct interconnected domains namely, problem domain, usage domain, development domain and system domain. A methodology for assistive technology software development is presented here that seeks to provide a framework for requirements elicitation studies together with their subsequent mapping implementing use-case driven object-oriented analysis for component based software architectures. Early feedback on user interface components effectiveness is adopted through process usability evaluation. A model is suggested that consists of the three environments; problem, conceptual, and representational environments or worlds. This model aims to emphasize on the relationship between the objects

     The printed Arabic character recognition are faced numerous challenges due to its character body which are changed depending on its position in any sentence (at beginning or in the middle or in the end of the word). This paper portrays recognition strategies. These strategies depend on new pre-processing processes, extraction the structural and numerical features to build databases for printed alphabetical Arabic characters. The database information that obtained from features extracted was applied in recognition stage. Minimum Distance Classifier technique (MDC) was used to classify and train the classes of characters. The procedure of one character against all characters (OAA) was used in determination the rate

Carbon nanotubes are an ideal material for infrared applications due to their
excellent electronic and photo electronic properties, suitable band gap, mechanical
and chemical stabilities. Functionalised multi-wall carbon nanotubes (f-MWCNTs)
were incorporated into polythiophen (PTh) matrix by electro polymerization
method. f-MWCNTs/ PTh nanocomposit films were prepared with 5wt% and
10wt% loading ratios of f-MWCNTs in the polymer matrix. The films are deposited
on porous silicon nanosurfaces to fabricate photoconductive detectors work in the
near IR region. The detectors were illuminated by semiconductor laser diode with
peak wavelength of 808 nm radiation power of 300 mW. FTIR spectra assignments
verify that t

Stenography is the art of hiding the very presence of communication by embedding secret message into innocuous looking cover document, such as digital image, videos, sound files, and other computer files that contain perceptually irrelevant or redundant information as covers or carriers to hide secret messages.

In this paper, a new Least Significant Bit (LSB) nonsequential embedding technique in wave audio files is introduced. To support the immunity of proposed hiding system, and in order to recover some weak aspect inherent with the pure implementation of stego-systems, some auxiliary processes were suggested and investigated including the use of hidden text jumping process and stream ciphering algorithm. Besides, the suggested
