The use of precision livestock has increased due to the need improve efficiency and productivity required by high food demand. Monitoring cattle behavior is a fundamental requirement for sustainable development quality control inputs industry. In this regard, there are several proposed solutions in decision-making. work, we present survey on monitoring classifying behavior. After selection, analyzed 17 papers extract synthesize information related devices, sensors, behaviors, pre-processing...
Precision agriculture requires accurate methods for classifying crops and soil cover in agricultural production areas. The study aims to evaluate three machine learning-based classifiers identify intercropped forage cactus cultivation irrigated areas using Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV). It conducted a comparative analysis between multispectral visible Red-Green-Blue (RGB) sampling, followed by the efficiency of Gaussian Mixture Model (GMM), K-Nearest Neighbors (KNN), Random Forest (RF)...
Rapid and sensitive identification of illicit drugs has been a challenge requires new methods. This study proposes newly developed electronic nose (e-nose) based on commercially available gas sensors to provide nondestructive, rapid, low cost, portable solution for in situ detection marijuana samples. Samples seized marijuana, pseudo-narcotic cigarettes were analyzed. Principal component analysis (PCA), soft independent modeling class analogies (SIMCA), successive projection algorithm-linear...
Energy consumption is one of the great villains in high-performance processing when applied to large clusters that continuously run certain applications. Seismic migration applications are targets this type processing, since feature denotes a need apply complex models evaluate drilling petroleum wells.

Mastitis is a disease that considered an obstacle in dairy farming. Some methods of diagnosing mastitis have been used effectively over the years, but with associated relative cost reduces producer’s profit. In this context, sector needs tools offer early, safe, and non-invasive diagnosis direct producer to apply resources confirm clinical picture, minimizing monitoring herd. The objective study was develop predictive methodology based on sequential knowledge transfer for automatic detection...
Recently, the manufactures of supercomputers have made use FPGAs to accelerate scientific applications [16][17]. Traditionally, were used only on non-scientific applications. The main reasons for this fact are: floating-point computation complexity; FPGA logic cells are not sufficient cores implementation; complexity prevents them operate high frequencies.
The recent evolution of the programmable logic devices, such as FPGAs (Field Programmable Gate Array), associated with growing demand for performance improvements in scientific computing applications, has attracted attention supercomputers vendors. They have been developing hybrid platforms that links general-purpose processors co-processors based on FPGAs, aiming acceleration.
This paper presents the Human-Centered Design process (HCD) applied in context of educational games using open data about cultural aspects city Recife. The main objective work is collaborative development an application for smartphones, entitled "Recife Games", which provides entertaining way to learn Recife culture. methodology was based on HCD Toolkit and Jakob Nielsen's usability criteria heuristics. We also used two interaction design techniques, Skeumorfism Flat Design. includes steps...
