    Design Engineering is considered in all their details as an engineering road-map that implementing companies must adhere to. Therefore, designers must consider sustainable standards in engineering designs in general and designs for energy-related parts of buildings. For the purpose of disseminating sustainable energy designs, the analytical require study of performance construction in terms of energy consumption, knowledge of the sources of this energy. The extent to basic electrical and mechanical designs are simulated to the energy performance requirements of a sustainable methodology. For this reason, this research paper sheds light on a survey study of the extent to which projects conform in terms of implementation and design to methodological standards in the performance of sustainable energy by relying on a group of experts and specialists in this field. Therefore, the researcher has adopted a set of standards that simulate the burning environment and in an open questionnaire whose outputs have turned into a closed questionnaire to include a group of specialized experts to reach the importance of organizing these standards to be part of the Iraqi construction electrical project

    The highest rate at which information may be reliably sent via a communication link is known as its capacity. In the case of non-Gaussian noise, the capacity of the channel depends on the specific characteristics of the noise, which can cause severe errors and reduce the reliability of communication systems over a fading channel. The Gaussian mixture impulsive noise model (GMINM), which is a more general and flexible non-Gaussian model for impulsive noise, has been compared in this paper with the Middleton Class-A impulsive noise model (MCAINM) in terms of derived channel capacity normalized by channel bandwidth (C/BW) with and without Rayleigh fading (Rf) channels. It also investigated the trade-off between complexity and accuracy in modeling the impulsive noise using two simplified Middleton Class-A impulsive noise models based on derived C/BW. The derived C/BW of these models under various conditions, such as different signal-to-noise ratios and impulsive noise parameters and models, have been performed and evaluated using two different scenarios: the exact method and the semi-analytical method. When the impulsive noise parameters  and A are both near 0 in GMINM and MCAINM, respectively, the capacity of the impulsive noise channel is found to be equivalent to that of the Gaussian channel sustainable, as shown by the findings based on Monte-Carlo simulations. We have shown that when the impulsive noise decreases, the capacity increases in all models; however, the capacity of Gaussian noise is higher than the capacity of non-Gaussian noise, which in turn is higher than the capacity of non-Gaussian noise over the Rf channel overall values of SNR in dB. Moreover, multi-channel configuration introduces spatial diversity and multiplexing gains that have been proposed to sustainably optimize the ergodic capacity for the challenge case when the channel state information (CSI) is unknown at the transmitter in non-Gaussian noise over Rf channel. In today's rapidly evolving world, sustainable communication systems play a crucial role in ensuring efficient and responsible utilization of resources. As the demand for wireless communication continues to rise, it becomes imperative to optimize the capacity of communication channels, especially in scenarios involving non-Gaussian noise models and fading channels.

    The majority of the existing gases constitute a risk to the health of humans and the environment in general. There is a wide range of diseases that can arise as a result of exposure to toxic and dangerous gases, which can be a cause of death or serious health problems. More so, deadly explosions may occur as a result of leakages of such gases. However, such consequences can be avoided when these dangerous gases are not detected early. Many researchers have proposed different kinds of systems for the detection of gas leakage, but most of the proposed systems were mainly designed to detect LPG gas. Therefore, in this study, a system is proposed for detecting different kinds of flammable and toxic gases. The gases that are detectable by the proposed system include smoke, Ethanol, CNG Gas, Methane, toluene, propane, Carbon Monoxide, acetone, Hydrogen Gas, and Formaldehyde. The system can detect gases efficiently and release evacuation alarms simultaneously, then send SMS for emergencies. The proposed system is ready to use and can be installed at any work location

    At present, the increasing demand for electrical energy and the presence of renewable sources in various forms in the world and, particularly in Iraq, such as solar energy and wind energy, have become the focus of researchers' attention. Huge efforts are focused on finding ways to use ecologically friendly energy to generate electricity and eliminate fossil fuels. In this study paper, we propose the use of a simulation program to discover the ideal location for a solar cell and the amount of time to be exposed to the sun's rays, so that a home powered by solar energy can be built. Also, through this program, the losses were calculated that accompany the conversion of light energy into electrical energy to find the necessary solutions to make the solar cell work with high efficiency

    Analysis of the problems of electricity in Iraq and recommendations of methods of overcoming them

    The Iraqi power sector is at a critical stage that requires urgent reforms. Concerns regarding the ability of the system to provide steady power and its operational inefficiencies, in general, have been expressed by the industry and academia. Currently, the power industry is experiencing one of the highest demand growth in the world, and given that it is capital intensive, it takes up a large share of Iraq’s government capital investment program. More so, there is a huge increase in the financial burden of the Iraqi electricity supply industry due to the high subsidies required for the coverage of the recurrent expenditure. This subsidy is regarded as one of the highest in the world, given the extremely low traffic which does not cover up to 20% of the periodic expenditure. Apart from the huge subsidy in electricity tariff, another major and indirect socioeconomic subsidy is the fact that the industry is over-staffed with over 50,000 employees which under normal circumstances should not be more than 15,000. The estimated annual cost of the aforementioned inefficiencies and insufficient power supply is about $3 to 4 billion. In 2013, about 70% of the generated electricity was lost, and this loss is in three areas, including commercial, technical, and administrative losses. Therefore, there is a need for massive reforms that are targeted at addressing the entire issue. This can be achieved through the engagement of the private sector, higher competition, and the introduction of novel regulatory and legislative frameworks. In addition to that, the available sources of energy in Iraq need to be optimized alongside gas usage related to oil extraction, while solar energy in Iraq is explored and the solar hybridization of the current power stations

    Copyright is a tool for preventing anyone forged to copy an electronic work from another person and claim that electronic work is referred to him. Since the identity of the person is always determined by his name and biometrics, there is a concern to handle this information, to preserve the copyright. In this paper, a new idea for copyright technology is used to prove video copyright, by using blind watermarking technique, the ownership information is hidden inside video frames using linear congruential generator (LCG) for adapted the locations of vector features extracted from the name and biometric image of the owner instead of hidden the watermark in the Pseudo Noise sequences or any other feature extraction technique. When providing the watermarked vector, a statistical operation is used to increase randomization state for the amplifier factors of LCG function. LCG provides random positions where the owner's information is stored inside the video. The proposed method is not difficult to execute and can present an adaptable imperceptibility and robustness performance. The output results show the robustness of this approach based on the average PSNR of frames for the embedded in 50 frames is around 47.5 dB while the watermark remains undetectable. MSSIM values with range (0.83 to 0.99)
