In this research, a classification method for human touching behaviors to haptic therapy robot is proposed. It is difficult to apply explicit discrete representation for human touch behaviors such as "slap", "pat" due to the existence of intermediate touch behavioral patterns. Therefore a new classification approach for human touch behaviors using Self Organizing Map (SOM) is proposed, using its ability to classify the nearby data in to a group. Further in this research the axis of out put maps are defined to be meaningful by specifying the initial placement of the input data during the training process.

The nodes of a WSNs (wireless sensors network) are composed of small devices capable of sensing and transmitting data related to some phenomenon in the environment. These devices, named sensor nodes, have severe constraints, such as lower processing and storage capacity, and mainly they have severe constraints related to battery energy. Therefore, the developing of strategies to reduce the power consumption is one of the main challenges in WSNs, and thereby helping to increase the survivability and efficiency of these networks. This paper proposes a new approach to help multi-path routing protocols to choose the best route based on Fuzzy Inference Systems and ACO (ant colony optimization). The Fuzzy System is used to estimate the degree of the route quality, based on the number of hops and the lowest energy level among the nodes that form the route. The ACO algorithm is used to adjust the rule base of the fuzzy system in order to improve the classification strategy of the route, and hence increasing the energy efficiency and the survivability of the network. The simulations showed that the proposal is effective from the point of view of the energy, the number of received messages, and the cost of received messages when compared against other approaches.

Maximum heart rate (MHR) is commonly used to estimate exercise intensity with the Karvonen formula, and there are several methods of calculating it. In this study, we used pedaling experiments on a cycle ergometer to evaluate methods of determining MHR in order to select the ones most suitable for the Karvonen formula. In the experiments, 43 subjects rode an aerobike. The results show that, for people in their 20s, two methods are suitable for estimating exercise intensity with the Karvonen formula. The main physical parameters affecting exercise intensity were also extracted, based on the experimental results.

EDITOR'S SUMMARY Since the 1990s massive open online courses (MOOCs) have offered web-based learning on a large scale and with open access. The leading MOOC providers in 2014 – Udemy, Coursera and edX – vary in detail but share the goal of facilitating learning for unlimited audiences at no cost or minimal charge, overcoming socioeconomic hurdles and opening education to all. The potential is strong, and data shows promising registration figures from India and economically developing countries. Yet MOOCs fall short of their goal of widespread and readily accessed education, impeded by technology challenges, lack of basic education and predominance of English as the language of instruction. Maintaining a high standard of educational quality is challenging, and attrition rates are very high. Those in library and information science can facilitate learning through MOOCs and also benefit by using the platform to build awareness of the professional field.

Design of digital circuits and systems are topics covered in undergraduate courses on computerscience, computer Engineering, and Electrical Engineering. Simple processor architectures are used as example of digital systems to apply and integrate the concepts studied in these courses. In this paper, we discuss the use of a simple processor named BIP (Basic Instruction-set Processor) in courses on digital circuits and systems design. BIP is distinguished from similar processors because it was developed by applying a multidisciplinary approach in order to allow its use in introductory courses on computerprogramming and in several other courses in the computerscience area.
