MohammedBashar F. MidhatFiras A. RaheemJournal Article20181201This paper addresses the problem of position control and stabilization for the two wheeled balancing robot. A mathematical model is derived based on the robot’s position and tilt angle and a fuzzy logic control is proposed for the balancing robot control. The fuzzy logic controller performance is compared with a conventional PID controller to show the difference between them. Both controllers were tested on the balancing robot in simulation using MATLAB software and the results were put together for a comparative point of view. The simulations shows a relative advantage for the fuzzy logic controller over the conventional PID controller especially in reducing the time required for stabilization which takes about 2 seconds and almost without overshoot while in the PID case the robot will have about 10% overshoot in position and about 20 degrees in tilt angle.https://ijccce.uotechnology.edu.iq/article_143863_9d4766e49c4101e63d6f365784d90e41.pdfUniversity of Technology-IraqIRAQI JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS, COMMUNICATIONS, CONTROL AND SYSTEMS ENGINEERING1811-921218120180401Web Based E-Hospital Management System1128143864ENMuayad Sadik CroockSalih Mahdi Al-QaraawiRidhab Sami Abd-AliJournal Article20181201Hospital Management System (HMS) is a computerizing scheme used to simplify several efforts of the working in a hospital. The system deals with all the requirements of different hospitals to offer efficient services to patients. In addition, it stores the patients’ information for long term for historical records. In this paper, we design and implement a web based HMS for group of hospitals in Iraq. The system provides an efficient link between the hospital’s departments including the laboratories, radiology, pharmacy and the consultants. The proposed system gives simple access to basic data, thus enabling the management to take better decisions on time. The website is designed using PHP, HTML and CSS environments, while the database is built utilizing MySQL version 5.7.11. As a case study, two hospitals (Margan in Babylon and Ibn-Alnafees in Baghdad) have been considered. The results show that the proposed system has achieved high performance and accuracy in terms of provided health services, data management and time consuming.https://ijccce.uotechnology.edu.iq/article_143864_6f138ba1ee92f1ab9f9dc166786ec0a2.pdfUniversity of Technology-IraqIRAQI JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS, COMMUNICATIONS, CONTROL AND SYSTEMS ENGINEERING1811-921218120180401Indoor Localization System Using Wireless Sensor Network2938143865ENHanan Hussain Al-asadyEkhlas K. HamzaJournal Article20181201Building a precise low cost indoor positioning and navigation wireless system is a challenging task. The accuracy and cost should be taken together into account. Especially, when we need a system to be built in a harsh environment. In recent years, several researches have been implemented to build different indoor positioning system (IPS) types for human movement using wireless commercial sensors. The aim of this paper is to prove that it is not always the case that having a larger number of anchor nodes will increase the accuracy. Two and three anchor nodes of ultra-wide band with or without the commercial devices (DW 1000) could be implemented in this work to find the Localization of objects in different indoor positioning system, for which the results showed that sometimes three anchor nodes are better than two and vice versa. It depends on how to install the anchor nodes in an appropriate scenario that may allow utilizing a smaller number of anchors while maintaining the required accuracy and cost.https://ijccce.uotechnology.edu.iq/article_143865_02fb470c71ae33fbaec2bb5e9f9e7a55.pdfUniversity of Technology-IraqIRAQI JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS, COMMUNICATIONS, CONTROL AND SYSTEMS ENGINEERING1811-921218120180401Robust Full State Feedback Controller Design Using H∞ for Inverted Pendulum System3948143866ENAbdul Muhsin M. Al TimimiJournal Article20181201This paper presents the design of a full state feedback controller to an inverted pendulum system. The nonlinear and linearized models of the system are obtained. The main goal of the proposed controller is to maintain the pendulum in the upright position and achieve a desirable tracking for the cart position. To achieve desirable tracking properties an integral term is added. The robustness of the proposed controller is examined when a 20% variation in the parameters of system is considered.https://ijccce.uotechnology.edu.iq/article_143866_991d6c34c033bc260d7a63fa2eab7a05.pdfUniversity of Technology-IraqIRAQI JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS, COMMUNICATIONS, CONTROL AND SYSTEMS ENGINEERING1811-921218120180401Implement Wireless Transceiver System Based On Convolutional Coding; Aided by Soft-Bit Decoding4955143867ENIsraa Hazem AliJournal Article20181201The main aim with any modern digital communication systems is to provide error free data transmission.

AlkhaliJournal Article20181201With the development of technologies and the availability of internet in the present era, the human has been looking for ease and efficiency in running his business, the educational field has been affected by a radical revolution as a result of the introduction of advanced technology. This has led educational institutions to provide and utilize all methods of advanced technology. This paper suggests a simple way of taking students attendance in universities and schools by using face detection and recognition with the goal of checking student’s attendance in the classroom automatically. This operation is done with low cost because there is no need for special hardware to install the system in the classroom. It can be applied using a computer and a camera with low effort and high efficiency. Eigenfaces algorithm is applied in the proposed system for face detection and recognition utilizing OpenCV libraries and Visual C#.Net 2015 with Microsoft Access 2016.https://ijccce.uotechnology.edu.iq/article_147513_b7d867de1b15996333e503341bb5d69a.pdfUniversity of Technology-IraqIRAQI JOURNAL OF COMPUTERS, COMMUNICATIONS, CONTROL AND SYSTEMS ENGINEERING1811-921218120180401Sensorless Speed Estimation of Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor Using Extended Kalman Filter6481147514ENDr.Farazdaq R.
