Preamble Sampling MAC Protocol for Low Power Wireless Sensor Networks with IEEE 802.15.4 Transceivers
2006
In this paper a preamble sampling MAC protocol for low power wireless sensor networks is proposed. The article describes the implementation of the protocol using network nodes equipped with the Chipcon CC2420 802.15.4 transceiver. The power consumption of the transceiver has been measured and the MAC protocol has been adapted to the transceiver properties. The results show the trade-off between power consumption and transmission delay for this algorithm during the communication process.

Integraatio on opetusmenetelmä, jossa pyritään häivyttämään eri aineiden välisiä rajoja muodostamalla aineiden välille yhteyksiä. Integroitu opetus voidaan nähdä erityisen hyödyllisenä ammattikorkeakoulujen kontekstissa, jossa opetuksen tavoitteena on tarjota opiskelijoille työelämän tiedot ja taidot kokonaisvaltaisessa muodossa. Tämän tutkimuksen tavoitteena oli selvittää ammattikorkeakoulun opettajien ja opiskelijoiden käsityksiä ja asenteita englannin ja ammattiaineen integraation tavoista sekä hyödyistä ja haitoista. Tutkimuksen teoreettinen viitekehys kartoittaa englannin kielen opetusta ammattikorkeakoulussa ja integraatiota opetusilmiönä korkeakoulutuksen kontekstissa. Tutkimus toteu…
A real time operating system for embedded platforms
2004
Masteroppgave i informasjons- og kommunikasjonsteknologi 2004 - Høgskolen i Agder, Grimstad SDL (Specification and Description Language) is today widely used for description and development of complex systems. One of the major benefits of SDL is the possibility to graphically describe a complex system, as well as the capability to analyze the system before implementation. This thesis evaluates SDL as a formal description language for use in an embedded platform. To be able to map the properties and behaviour of an SDL system into a programming language, a Real Time Operating System (RTOS) must be used. We will evaluate all properties of SDL to get a overview of which properties can be mappe…
Medicīniskās terminoloģijas mācīšana augstskolas līmenī
2016
Šī maģistra darba mērķis ir izpētīt veiksmīgākos medicīniskās terminoloģijas pasniegšanas metodes augstskolas līmeņa studentiem. Izmantojot triangulācijas metodi, autore analizēja augstskolas pasniedzēju, praktizējošo fizioterapeitu un studentu viedokļus par fizioterapijas specialitātes medicīniskās terminoloģijas atlasi un mācīšanas veidiem. Teorētiskajā daļā autore apskata dažādas terminoloģijas mācīšanas klasifikācijas un medicīniskā diskursa īpatnības. Apkopojot praktiskās daļas rezultātus, darba autore secinaja, ka veiksmīgākie medicīniskās terminoloģijas pasniegšanas paņēmieni ir priedēkļu un piedēkļu mācīšana, vārdu atpazīšana no konteksta, mnemoniskie uzdevumi, asociāciju veidošana …
Speciālā lietojuma valodas tekstu tulkošana: atšķirības starp juridiskajiem un tehniskajiem tulkojumiem
2021
Speciālā lietojuma valoda (SLV) pēta konkrētas profesionālās jomas valodu, tādēļ attiecīgajās jomās profesiju pārstāvji to izmanto kā darbarīku. Augsti pieprasītas jomas, kurās ir nepieciešams pārzināt SLV, ir tiesību zinātne un tehnoloģijas. Minētajās profesijās juridisko un tehnisko tekstu tulkošana ir ļoti nepieciešama jomu vispusības un starptautiskuma dēļ. Šī iemesla dēļ šī darba mērķis ir identificēt SLV tekstu tulkošanas īpatnības un definēt juridisko un tehnisko tulkojumu atšķirības, analizējot no latviešu uz angļu valodu iztulkotus juridiskos un tehniskos tekstus. Pētījuma jautājums tika izvirzīts, lai izpētītu SLV tekstu tulkošanas īpatnības un noteiktu atšķirības starp juridiskaj…
Water Resource Recovery Facilities (WRRFs): The Case Study of Palermo University (Italy)
2021
The wastewater sector paradigm is shifting from wastewater treatment to resource recovery. In addition, concerns regarding sustainability during the operation have increased. In this sense, there is a need to break barriers (i.e., social, economic, technological, legal, etc.) for moving forward towards water resource recovery facilities and demonstration case studies can be very effective and insightful. This paper presents a new water resource recovery case study which is part of the Horizon 2020 EU Project “Achieving wider uptake of water-smart solutions—Wider Uptake”. The final aim is to demonstrate the importance of a resource recovery system based on the circular economy concept. The r…
A Hybrid Power Supply with Variable Speed Drive for Automatically Move Irrigation Equipment: Margin of Feasibility
2021
Center pivot irrigation systems are widely used in agriculture. Their water pumping systems are primary energy consumers. The use of photovoltaic power plants and variable speed drives of electric motors can reduce energy costs. The purpose of this study is to determine the feasibility of integrating variable speed drives and photovoltaic modules into water pumping systems. A novel architecture of a pumping system was suggested. Its features are no battery backup and the sale of electricity into the grid.
Roadmapping the Transition to Water Resource Recovery Facilities: The Two Demonstration Case Studies of Corleone and Marineo (Italy)
2022
The current exploitation of freshwater, as well as the significant increase in sewage sludge production from wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs), represent nowadays a critical issue for the implementation of sustainable development consistent with the circular economy concept. There is an urgent need to rethink the concept of WWTPs from the conventional approach consisting in pollutant removal plants to water resource recovery facilities (WRRFs). The aim of this paper is to provide an overview of the demonstration case studies at the Marineo and Corleone WRRFs in Sicily (IT), with the final aim showing the effectiveness of the resources recovery systems, as well as the importance of plant o…
