The necessity of managing energy through smart devices has become a significant issue in recent years. Though, the intelligent use of smart devices is an essential component in creating smart cities. Hence, it leads to establishing a smart grid as an infrastructure for smart cities. The smart grid infrastructure consists of smart meters, which is more reliable than digital meters for billing generation. A real-time smart meter system design is proposed and tested in this work. The measured voltage, current, and power factor for energy are multiplied every second and summed up for overall energy consumption, and this process applies to every consumer. Then, the energy consumption of each house is collected from a single region by sending them to the DCU (Data Concentrator Unit). Methods of transferring data in the proposed system consist of three technologies. The first one is the Bluetooth used between the smart socket and the smart meter. This technology was used due to the short distance between the two devices. The second one is Xbee, and it connects the smart meter and the DCU. This technology is used due to the distance between the two devices and the number of smart meters connected in one DCU. The last technology is GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications), and it is used between the DCU and the server to transfer data since this technology can cover long distances. Energy providers will have to implement innovative Time-of-Use (TOU) pricing strategies to implement the above process. A smart meter has the potential to encourage consumers to shift demand from peak hours to off-peak hours or reduce peak demand. And upon the real experiment of the system, it was found that the error rate in the voltage sensor used in the system was 0.26%, and the error rate in the current sensor used was 0.6%. These numbers indicate the reliability of the system because they are acceptable values.

Employee performance assessment is the evaluation of the employee's performances recorded at the end of every month. This approach is currently used at the Military Court Office I-01 Banda Aceh. The main aim of this assessment is to measure employee's performances in achieving their targets. The results will be used as the measuring key, where an employee is only eligible to receive the allowance, if the targets are successfully fulfilled. At this moment, the assessment form has to be filled in manually by each employee, and they will be later assessed manually by the assessors. This manual process undeniably has many disadvantages, especially in terms of accuracy and efficiency. To solve this problem, the Employee Performance Information System was designed using the SMART (Simple Multi Attribute Technique). The assessments were based on eight indicators, i.e; performance, attendance, the proportion of performance targets, behavioral scores, number of tasks, services, overtime, and monthly rewards earned. The weights for each variable were assessed, and keyed into the system. The values for each variable were compared, and results were generated. In SMART, the weighting is measured as a scale between 0 and 10, thus it is easier to make calculations and comparison. The obtained results (SI-TUKIN) indicated that the system is capable of evaluating and analysing the employee's performances, quickly and effectively.

In this paper, we have suggest, design, and simulate an all optical 1*2 demultiplexer (Demux) depended on Insulator-Metal-Insulator (IMI) plasmonic multilayer structure. The proposed structure offers an operating wavelength at 1550 nm and the design area is (350 nm* 350 nm). In this work, Finite Element Method (FEM) is used by using COMSOL Multiphasic software (version 5.4). The working principle of the proposed device (plasmonic Demux) depends on destructive and constructive interference, which occurs on input signal, selector signal, and control signal. The borderline between Logic 0 and Logic 1 at the output is 0.5 that is called transmission threshold. The performance of the proposed structure is measured by three parameters; Transmission, Extension Ratio, and Modulation Depth (MD). This devise shows, in some cases, the transmission value reaches more than 80%, Extension Ratio (3.5 dB), and very high MD value (97.6%). The proposed structure has a major role in building the arithmetic logic unit (ALU) and photonics integrated circuits (ICs).

Crime constitutes an action which is punishable by law. Crime Analysis involves the predictions of occurrence of future crime, the time and place of crime and to have insights into the trends of crime. Models are created by machine learning algorithms using the spatial, temporal and the demographic features extracted from the crime dataset. Reverse Geocoding technique is used to extract spatial features and also visualize the locations of the crime from the crime dataset using ArcGIS API of python along with WebMap and WebScene component provided by the API. Crime Analysis assists the Police, Investigation departments for the prediction of future crime and also take required actions which involves the deployment of crops in the predicted place at the time of the crime. The hotspots are identified; the hotspot is the area co-ordinates where more frequent crimes occur. After identifying hotspots, more focus is given on those crime prone areas for preventing and controlling the crime.

Object discovery is one of the very important and challenging problems in computer computing, seeks to obtain the properties of objects from a large number of categories previously described in natural images. In particular, image classification that aims to see the semantic categories of objects in a given image. Object discovery is not only identifies item categories but also predicts the location of each item with a mandatory box. Semantic separation process aims to predict intelligent pixel separation to assign a specific category label to each pixel, thus providing a richer and more comprehensive understanding of the image. In depth learning strategies have emerged as a powerful strategy for reading presentations directly from the data and have led to significant success in the field of general acquisition. Given this period of rapid evolution, the aim of this paper is to provide a comprehensive analysis of the latest achievements in this field brought about in-depth learning strategies. Here, the deep learning object detection algorithm is implemented for accuracy and time effectiveness to show the correct label for a character of interest in a movie which will be more useful in surveillance of building, ATM centres etc. Finally, it concludes with a promising indication for future research.

Hybrid Plug-in Electric vehicles (HPEV) are new automobiles that can operate on gasoline and electricity stored in a battery pack. As a result, by utilizing the cheaper renewable and nonrenewable energy sources accessible at the household electric outlet, these cars may considerably cut their fuel usage. As a result, PHEVs have the potential to reduce overall greenhouse gas emissions from vehicles dramatically. A simplified power train of a power split PHEV is modeled in this study. The primary goal of the research is to improve the PHEV’s fuel economy. To accomplish this, the aforementioned simplified model has been used to implement the Optimized Neural Network approach. An optimization problem is developed with Equivalent Fuel Consumption Minimization (EFCM) as the primary objective function and various constraints. The particle swarm optimization (PSO) methodology is used to improve the efficiency of HPEV, estimates by optimizing the process parameters of the ANN. In comparison to existing approaches, the suggested method can produce optimistic outcomes based on the simulation studies.
