E-creativity: investigating computer-supported creativity
A fusion of the power of modem information and communication technology with the potential of human creativity provides an important and interesting area for research. In this paper, we outline this general research area that we term ecreativity. In particular, we describe our own focus of interest that we label computer supported creativity and the design of creativity support systems. As this is a largely uncharted territory, further research is of vital importance. We describe our research approach in this area and illustrate this with extracts from a case study of an artist who makes extensive and novel use of information technology in her creation of paintings.<br /
Load shifting and peak clipping for reducing energy consumption in an indian university campus
This paper analyzes the intelligent use of time-varying electrical load via developing efficient energy utilization patterns using demand-side management (DSM) strategies. This approach helps distribution utilities decrease maximum demand and electrical energy billing costs. A case study of DSM implementation of electric energy utility for an educational building Alagappa Chettiar Government College of Engineering and Technology (ACGCET) campus was simulated. The new optimum energy load model was established for peak and off-peak periods from the system's existing load profile using peak clipping and load shifting DSM techniques. The result reflects a significant reduction in maximum demand from 189 kW to 170 kW and a reduction in annual electricity billing cost from 10,200 (approximately 10%) in the upgraded system. This work highlights the importance of time of day (TOD) tariff structure consumers that aid reduction in their distribution system's maximum demand and demand charges. Copyright

Effect of Interfacial Mobility on Flexural Strength and Fracture Toughness of Glass/Epoxy Laminates
Mechanical testing and surface fractography were used to characterize the fracture of E-glass fiber reinforced epoxy composites as a function of the silane coupling agent used. gamma-Aminopropyltriethoxysilane (APS) and delta-aminobutyltriethoxysilane (ABS) were used because these have been shown to have different interfacial mobilities at multilayer coverage. The values of the properties studied generally increased from untreated c, as determined from a Mode I translaminar fracture toughness tests, for the untreated composites (10.5 ± 0.4 kJ/m2) was lower than that for the ABS-treated composites (14.3 ± 2.1 kJ/m2) which was lower than that for the APS-treated composites (17.1 ± 2.4 kJ/m2). Macroscopic observations showed that a larger fiber debonding area was formed in the crack tip region for the untreated glass composites, suggesting poorer bonding compared to those treated with coupling agents. Since these silanes have similar chemistry, the differences were attributed to differences in the interfacial mobility of the coupling agent layers
Energetic neutron identification with pulse shape discrimination in pure CsI crystals
Pulse shape discrimination with pure CsI scintillators is investigated as a method for separating energy deposits by energetic neutrons and photons at particle physics experiments. Using neutron data collected near the European XFEL XS1 beam window the pulse shape discrimination capabilities of pure CsI are studied and compared to CsI(Tl) using near-identical detector setups, which were operated in parallel. The inelastic interactions of 100 MeV neutrons are observed to produce a slower scintillation emission in pure CsI relative to energy deposits from cosmic muons. By employing a charge-ratio method for pulse shape characterization, pulse shape discrimination with pure CsI is shown to be effective for identifying energy deposits from neutrons vs. cosmic muons, however, pure CsI was not able resolve the specific type of neutron inelastic interactions as can be done with CsI(Tl). Using pulse shape discrimination, the rate of energetic neutron interactions in a pure CsI detector is measured as a function of time and shown to be correlated with the European XFEL beam power. The results demonstrate that pulse shape discrimination with pure CsI has significant potential to improve electromagnetic vs. hadronic shower identification at future particle physics experiments

Design of Multi-Layer Protocol Architecture using Hybrid Optimal Link State Routing (HOLSR) Protocol for CR Networks
There is a lack of spectrum due to the rising demand for sensing device communication and the inefficient use of the existing available spectrum. Through opportunistic access to licenced bands, which does not obstruct the primary sensory users (PU), it is feasible to enhance the inefficient use of the current sensor device frequency spectrum. Cognitive settings are a demanding environment in which to carry out tasks like sensor network routing and spectrum access since it is difficult to access channels due to the presence of PUs. The basic goal of the routing problem in sensor networks is to establish and maintain wireless sensor multihop paths between cognitive sensor nodes. The frequency to be used as well as the number of hops at each sensor node along the path must be determined for this assignment. In order to improve performance while using less energy, scientists suggested a unique adaptive cross-layer optimisation subcarrier distribution technique with the HOLSR protocol for wireless sensor nodes. Throughput and energy consumption parameters are used to analyse the sensor network architecture protocol that has been developed. The energy usage of the sensor nodes in the network has increased by 50%. The performance of the proposed HOLSR algorithm is assessed using the simulation results, and the results are contrasted with those of a conventional multicarrier (MC) system in terms of bit error rate and throughput
5G Enabled Moving Robot Captured Image Encryption with Principal Component Analysis Method
Estimating the captured image of moving robots is very difficult. These images are vital in analyzing earth's surface objects for many applications like studying environmental conditions, Land use and Land Cover changes, and change detection studies of worldwide change. Multispectral robot-captured images have a massive amount of low-resolution data, which is lost due to a lack of capture efficiency due to artificial and atmospheric reasons. The image transformation is required in a 5G network with effective transmission by reducing noise, inconsistent lighting, and low resolution, degrading image quality. In this paper, the authors proposed the machine learning dimensionality reduction technique i.e. Principle Component Analysis (PCA) and which is used for metastasizing the 5 G-enabled moving robot captured image to enrich the image's visual perception to analyze the exact information of global or local data. The encryption algorithm implanted for data reduction and transmission over the 5G network gives sophisticated results compared with other standard methods. This proposed algorithm gives better performance in developing data reduction, network convergence speed, reduces the training time for object classification, and improves accuracy for multispectral moving robot-captured images by the support of 5G network
