Interactive Event Management System
Event is one of the activity that tmiversity students are Imstly involved. The
tradifunal way in mmaging an event often causes some problems. This project
objectives are to find all features needed and to develop an Event Management
System, that can satiszy an need to help in mtking event rnmagement easier and
more organized. This project will develop ll'ling prototype development lifu cycle
becall'ie it is the Imst suitable way of developing this kind of project. ThroUgh
survey and research there are some features that need to be included in the system to
make sure the system work as it intended to be, fur example task management and
docUirtent rnmagement, as well as features from social media such as Face book wall
This project will make event mmagement much easier and Imre fim with the
combination of web 2.0 and social media
Adaptive algorithms for identifying recursive nonlinear systems
Journal ArticleABSTRACT This paper presents two fast least-squares lattice algorithms for adaptive non-linear filters equipped with system models involving nonlinear feedback. Such models can approximate a large class of non-linear systems adequately, and usually with considerable parsimony in the number of coefficients required. For simplicity of presentation, we consider the bilinear system model in the paper, even though the results are applicable to more general system models. The computational complexity of the algorithms is an order of magnitude smaller than previously available methods. Results of several experiments that demonstrate the properties of the adaptive bilinear filters as well as compare their performances with two other algorithms that are computationally more expensive are also presented in this paper
The effect of decision satisfaction prediction in argumentation-based negotiation
Supporting group decision-making is a complex process, especially
when decision-makers have no opportunity to gather at the same place and at the
same time. Besides that, finding solutions may be difficult in case representing
agents are not able to understand the process and support the decision-maker accordingly.
Here we propose a model and an algorithm that will allow the agent
to analyse tendencies. This way we intend that agents can achieve decisions with
more quality and with higher levels of consensus. Our model allows the agent to
redefine his objectives to maximize both his and group satisfaction. Our model
proved that agents that use it will obtain higher average levels of consensus and
satisfaction. Besides that, agents using this model will obtain those higher levels
of consensus and satisfaction in most of the times compared to agents that do not
use it.This work has been supported by COMPETE Programme (operational programme for

The influence of geothermal sources on deep ocean temperature, salinity, and flow fields
Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution May 1988This thesis is a study of the effect of geothermal sources on the deep circulation,
temperature and salinity fields. In Chapter 1 background material is given
on the strength and distribution of geothermal heating. In Chapter 2 evidence for
the influence of a hydrothermal system in the rift valley of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge
on nearby property fields and a model of the flow around such a heat source are
presented, with an analysis of a larger-scale effect. Results of an analytical model
for a heat source on a β-plane in Chapter 3 show how the response far from the
source can have a structure different from the forcing because of its dependence
on two parameters: a Peclet number (the ratio of horizontal advection and vertical
diffusion), and a Froude-number-like parameter (the ratio of long wave phase speed
to background flow speed) which control the relative amount of damping and advection
of different vertical scales. The solutions emphasize the different behavior
of a dynamical field like temperature compared to tracers introduced at the source.
These ideas are useful for interpreting more complicated solutions from a numerical
model presented in the final chapter.This study was supported by the National Science Foundation grants OCE8515642
