The study of path loss propagation is of high importance in telecommunication, for optimizing the efficiency of wireless communication networks. In this paper, four path loss propagation models; free space path loss (FSPL) model, Okumura model, Okumura-Hata model, and COST 231-Hata model were compared. The models were compared using measurement data from Choba, Port Harcourt, Nigeria. The data is gotten from a 4G walk test using two mobile applications. The first mobile application Network, Signal Info (version 5.68.07), was used to acquire the received signal strength in and the distance between the BTS antenna and the mobile antenna. While the second mobile application, G-NetTrack Lite (version 14.8), was used to map out the track path followed during the test. Choba, the study area, is a coastal suburban area with map coordinates 4.8941° N, 6.9263° E. The measured distance range was from 0.09 km to 0.45 km, and a path loss range of 69dB to 81dB. While the BTS and mobile antenna heights were 32 m and 1m respectively, with a carrier frequency of 800MHz. BTS transmission power of 23 dBm was assumed, based on 3GPP eNodeB recommendations. A graph comparison of the studied models showed that Okumura-Hata model and COST 231-Hata model had the closest predictions to the measured path loss. The need for better path loss models for 4G and 5G propagations was observed

In recent times amount of data is increasing rapidly and analysis of data is a must to come up with business decisions, predictions etc. It’s not just text are numbers which has to be stored properly. Data Types these days varies from images, video, social media data, surveys to blogs etc. When this is the case its mandatory to deal with Bigdata and to safeguard those Bigdata. Technologies available in Bigdata and Bitcoin helps us in achieving this. Bigdata technologies helps in storing the unstructured data effectively and processing of such voluminous data is taken care of. Hashing algorithms are used in Blockchain to keep the data safe. Hashing algorithms like SHA 256 are used to make it more secure. Its almost not possible to break the data available in Blockchain.

The reconstruction of 3D images is always a difficult task for the researchers. The 3D reconstruction of the image is a core technique of various fields such as Computer graphics, computer vision, CAD systems, medical science, computer application, etc. Reconstruction of the 3D image allows us to gather the quantitative features of the objects such as the shape, size, and volume of the objects. The existing computer algorithms need spatial dimension information to make the distinguished inference from the given 3D image which is not always possible. This paper simplifies the 3D reconstruction of the image. This research paper introduced a novel algorithm for the representation of the Three Dimensional images into a textual form.  The syntactic approach is used for the extraction of the features of the image and these are called knowledge vectors. The knowledge vector consists of the direction information and length information. This a new approach in the field of image processing where images can be represented as a knowledge vector and it could be a great contribution in the field where security is a major concern. Further, the knowledge vector is used for the reconstruction of the 3D image. The performance of the algorithm is evaluated on the PASCAL 3D + and example-based Synthesis of the 3D Object Arrangements dataset. According to the obtained results, the proposed methodology is having better accuracy, and the processing time of reconstruction of the original 3D image is 1.02 Seconds. Single-pass is sufficient for reconstructing the original image

As an emerging technology, blockchain can be used in all areas of e-commerce, one of which is advertising. The present study has been designed to identify a dynamic model of trust in blockchain-based advertising and acceptance of this type of advertising. In order to achieve the purpose of the research, the required information was collected by literature, background review and experts opinions. In the next step, the research information was analyzed using systems dynamics methodology (Sterman approach) and a dynamic research model was presented. After model validation and examining the causal relationships, simulations and scenario analysis were performed using Vensim software. The results show the positive effect of the audience, advertiser and advertising characteristics on trust in blockchain-based advertising and, consequently, the improvement of the audience loyalty coefficient. Also, the results of scenarios indicate an ascending growth (Pessimistic: about %60, Optimistic: about %80) in audience loyalty. Finally, practical suggestions were presented in accordance with the research results

Scientific sources demonstrate different attitudes of researchers to cryptocurrencies because they treat them as a category of currency, virtual money, commodity, etc. Accordingly, the relation to the valuation and risk of cryptocurrency as an investment object is different. The purpose of the article is to identify cryptocurrency value formation factors and determine the risks of investing in cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency is simultaneously considered a currency, an asset with uncertain income, and a specific product, the price of which is determined by the energy costs for mining new cryptocurrency blocks. Thus, the paper examines the risks of investing in cryptocurrency from several positions. First, the study identifies the factors of formation of the value and risk of cryptocurrency as ordinary money based on comparing cryptocurrency with traditional money. Unlike traditional money, cryptocurrency is not tied to the economic performance of a particular country; also, central banks do not control or regulate their mining. Instead, the cryptocurrency emissions depend on the computational capacity of the equipment used for their mining. As a financial asset, cryptocurrency can be a “financial bubble” because their value increasing often exceeds the cost of mining. On the other hand, given the emergence of cryptocurrency as a phenomenon of the information economy, the paper analyses the impact of specific technical features (cryptographic hashing algorithm, the complexity of creating new blocks, the technology of verification of mining operations, etc.) on the risk of investing in cryptocurrency assets.

In the era of internet technologies, to provide wireless communication and transfer the information in seconds from one place to another has arrived because of the need to consume information technologies. All users desire to quickly access the smart world’s life and interact with the entire world socially. This paper proposed an environment for the safe and secure smart patient’s room connected to the WSN, BAN, and RFID. All the data will be transferred to the session key, secure and contains the patient’s information. The network connected through WSN and data will be sent through the session key to make an smart hospital’s patient cabin. The small token is there that will be transferred throughout the network to get authenticated by each network. This proposed scheme is secure enough to overcome the drawbacks of the other protocol in such a way as to make the protocol more secure from the entire adversary’s attack may occur.

The article explores approaches to assessing the quality of health care sites. The main components of evaluation are identified. The author's toolkit for health site evaluation is offered. It is based on the three branches of resource competitiveness (content, technical and marketing components). Twenty parameters of site quality calculation are defined, which have the scale and are supported by determining the weights of components. The scaling of the resulting indicator is proposed. It allows designation of the level of development of the particular site in the field of health. The practical approbation of the proposed method was carried out on the example of Ukrainian sites on the topic of rehabilitation and disease prevention. The diagram of the grouping of websites on a level of development of separate components is constructed to define the further directions of work with these sites to strengthen their competitive positions in the "Health" category. The author's typology of health sites depending on the calculated numerical combinations of the quality assessment level of components is given. It also describes the state of the "ideal" mix of components of the health site, which is formed based on the balance of individual elements.

Although Blockchain can significantly change the future of ERP systems as an innovative tech-nology, few researchers have gone into the details of this development. Most have given an overview of the changes ahead. Therefore, in this research, we have tried to use the method of Exploratory Content Analysis (ECA) by reviewing more than three hundred scientific articles in the field of Blockchain to analyze the effects of this technology on ERP system modules such as supply chain management, maintenance, finance, project management, manufacturing, and hu-man capital management. The result of this exploratory research is an architectural model for a blockchain-based ERP system. The researchers describe the functions of this system carefully, and the role of supporting technologies such as Smart Contract, IoT, Digital Wallet, Cloud Com-puting, and Building Information Model is clarified. We genuinely believe that this research could use as a reference model for ERP vendors and researchers in information systems and business process management

The article is devoted to the problem of designing recycling in sustainable logistics systems in the field of processing wastewater treatment waste - municipal sewage sludge (MSS) in the focus of information technology management . The essence of the developed and proposed wastewater treatment project is based on its integration into the city's public utilities system, which will be a single basis for a closed-type logistics system that is managed on the basis of the introduction of a unified information system. This approach to the design of sustainable logistics systems ensures the formation of a closed material and informational logistics flow according to the "supply of raw materials - production - product distribution". This allows solving two problems: ensuring the creation of a closed logistics system that is managed by a single information base and developing a new type of fertilizer. The solutions proposed in this project in the implementation of the MSS processing project are complex and allow implementing all areas of the sustainable development strategy in the aspect of implementing modern information systems. The design technology makes it possible to completely close the logistics cycle for the supply and processing of MSS into finished products in the form of organic fertilizers

The paper considers the possibilities of optimizing the search for agricultural information based on Shannon information entropy criterion. A comparison of the degree of uncertainty of information search through the Internet – search systems with similar indicators of Ukrainian agricultural websites. According to the number of hit count in Ukraine in July 2020 to the search engine, which consists of 10 sources, and to agricultural websites (43 sources) by estimating entropy, a conclusion was made about the significant degree of dispersion of agricultural information sources. It should be emphasized that the artificial division into 4 categories (AgroMedia, Agrotrade web resources, Information and advisory resources, Specialized web resources) did not improve the situation according to the degree of uncertainty compared to the search engine system. As for the entropy index, for almost all 4 categories of entropy indices (heterogeneity or diversity) is close to the case of uniform distribution, i.e., the same hit count of all possible resources (their number for all categories is approximately the same 10-11). As a result of the analysis of the potential client base of electronic consulting, it can be quantified as 4,700,000 of agricultural households and about 50,000 small and medium-sized farms. The transition to the land market is likely to lead to a substantial increase in the number of the latter. It was demonstrated that the current educational level of household owners indicates both the need to increase this indicator and the presence of a close relationship with the existing system of professional advisory in Ukraine, which operates in recent years through self-sufficiency and uncertain financial support from central and regional authorities. The existing official database of advisors should be restructured in line with the call of the times to reduce the degree of uncertainty in finding a specialist of the desired profile.

In recent scenario, women are suffering from breast cancer disease across the world. Mammography is one of the important methods to detect breast cancer early; that to reduce the cost and workload of radiologists. Medical image processing is a tremendous technique used to determine the disease in advance to reduce the risk factor. To predict the disease from 2-D mammography images for diagnosing and detecting based on advanced soft computing paradigm. Still, to get more accuracy in all coordinate axes, 3-D mammography imaging is used to capture depth information from all different angles. After the reconstruction of this process, a better quality of 3D mammography is obtained. It is useful for the experts to identify the disease in well advance. To improve the accuracy of disease findings, deep convolution neural networks (CNN) can be applied for automatic feature learning, and classifier building. This work also presents a comparison of the other state of art methods used in the last decades.

Detecting occluded faces is a non-trivial problem for face detection in computer vision. This challenge becomes more difficult when the occlusion covers majority of the face. Despite the high performance of current state-of-the-art face detection algorithms, the detection of occluded and covered faces is an unsolved problem and is still worthy of study. In this paper, a deep-learning-face-detection model Niqab-Face-Detector is proposed along with context-based labeling technique for detecting unconstrained veiled faces such as faces covered with niqab. An experimental test was conducted to evaluate the performances of the proposed model using the Niqab-Face dataset. The experiment showed encouraging results and improved accuracy compared with state-of-the-art face detection algorithms

Healthcare service institutions (HSIs) have sought ways to motivate patient loyalty in response to surging rates of medical tourism. Previous research indicates that Hospital Information System (HIS) is essential for HSIs to gather, measure, and analyze the massive amounts of data required to generate patient loyalty. There is currently no consensus on the factors that comprise HIS specifically geared towards motivating patient loyalty (HISPL). Furthermore, HIS requires full adoption by HSI staff to be effective. Thus, to reduce wastage of HSI resources, it is necessary to predict whether a given HIS specifically geared towards motivating patient loyalty is likely to be adopted. The purpose of this study is to reveal the factors that comprise HISPL and to modify the Unified Theory of Acceptance and Use of Technology (UTAUT) model to help predict the likelihood of an HISPL to be fully adopted by HSI staff. The results revealed that pertinent HISPL factors are capability, configurability, ease of use/help desk availability and competence (EU), and accessibility/shareability (AS). Using these factors, the UTAUT model was modified to fit the specific needs of HISPL. The modifications are theoretical and will have to be validated in future empirical studies.
