A new PID tuning and controller approach is introduced for Hammerstein systems based on input/output data. A B-spline neural network is used to model the nonlinear static function in the Hammerstein system. the control signal is composed of a PID controller together with a correction term. In order to update the control signal, the multistep ahead predictions of the Hammerstein system based on the B-spline neural networks and the associated Jacobians matrix are calculated using the De Boor algorithms including boththe functional and derivative recursions. A numerical example is utilized to demonstrate the efficacy of the proposed approaches.

Mobile computing devices are becoming more prevalent. Mobile applications extend their scope and utility. Developing such apps introduces a problem: developers are being forced to develop their applications to target each mobile platform from scratch or to rely on Web-based solutions that do not provide a "native" look and feel. In order to investigate novel methods of multi-platform app development and to review HTML5, we built an app using several cutting-edge development frameworks. Our scenario - a smart meter tool - is an active area of research in itself. We present approaches in the field of multi-platform app development and illustrate the technological background. We provide an overview of our development process. Finally, we evaluate our app and discuss our findings in order to provide generalizable results.

the growing adoption of cloud computing is changing the way business information systems are developed, scaled up, maintained and paid for. this not only applies to large organisations, but also increasingly to small and medium-sized businesses (SMEs). In particular, cloud computing promises to improve the reliability and scalability of IT systems, which allows SMEs to focus their limited resources on their core business and strategy. In the SME context, technology adoption and usage decisions are influenced by many factors. this paper attempts to conceptualize cloud computing adoption and to enhance understanding of the range of factors affecting cloud computing adoption decision making in SMEs. Based on semi-structured interviews with SMEs and service providers in the North East of England, a number of factors were examined and found to affect the adoption process. By adopting the TOE framework as a theoretical basis, it has been found that cloud computing adoption decision is influenced by different types of factors and therefore, is not exclusive to one or two dimensions e.g. technological and organisational contexts, as presented in some previous ICT adoption studies. the main factors that were identified playing a significant role in SME adoption of cloud services were: relative advantage, uncertainty, geo-restriction, compatibility, trialability, size, top management support, innovativeness, industry, market scope, supplier efforts and external computing support. these finding have important implications and great value to the research community, business practitioners, and policy makers in terms of formulating better strategies for cloud computing adoption. For service providers, using the research model in this study can assist in increasing their understanding of why some SMEs choose to adopt cloud computing services. In this study, the authors present empirical evidence from Northeast of England where limited research efforts have taken place.

the author is carrying out research studies to explore the applicability of knowledge-based system technologies to today's competitive product design and development, with an emphasis on the design of high quality products at the design stage. A framework of knowledge-intensive support approach for new product concepts is proposed in this paper. Based on the proposed approach and methodologies, a prototype system named KB@Pds, which can assist inexperienced users to perform the process in design and knowledge management. KB@Pds integrates the intelligent design process and knowledge management. this paper presents the underlying concepts of the development and shows the practical application withthe prototype system with a case study.

Operating systems represent large pieces of complex software that are carefully tested and broadly deployed. Despite this, developers frequently have little more than their source code to understand how they behave. this static representation of a system results in limited insight into execution dynamics, such as what code is important, how data flows through a system, or how threads interact with one another. We describe Tralfamadore, a system that preserves complete traces of machine execution as an artifact that can be queried and analyzed with a library of simple, reusable operators, making it easy to develop and run new dynamic analyses. We demonstrate the benefits of this approach with several example applications, including a novel unified source and execution browser.

this paper introduces the toolkit ASED: Assistive System Experiment Designer. Combining a specially constructed assembly table and new software it allows measuring the performance of impaired persons when using assistive systems for production environments ASiPE). the ASiPE design tested using ASED transgresses the state of the art by three enhancements. Withthe help of ASED we are able to quantify and rank their effects on work quality and performance. the ASED toolkit, however, is not confined to the design tested but can be used for the experimental analysis of every kind of manual process.
