Electrocardiogram (ECG) is a tool used for the electrical analysis of the status of human heart activity. When the ECG signal is recorded, it gets contaminated with different types of noises. So, for accurate analysis, noises must be eliminated from the ECG signal. There are different types of noises that contaminate the characteristics of ECG signal i.e Power line interference, baseline wander, Electromyogram (EMG). In this paper, different techniques have implemented for the removal of noises. A median filter is used for removal of DC component and Savitzky-Golay filter (SG) is used for smoothing noised waveform and then wavelet transform (db4) is used to decompose the ECG signal for removal of various artifacts. Wavelet transform provides the information in frequency and time domain and then thresholding has been applied for the implementation of algorithms in MATLAB. The measured results i.e. SNR(Signal to Noise ratio) and MSE(Mean square error) have been calculated using different databases like MIT-BIH, Long-term ST database, European ST-T database. The results are examined with proposed methods that are better than those reported in the literature.

In this paper a novel digital watermarking algorithm is proposed. The proposed method comprises of a watermarking embedding and extraction algorithm using bio inspired optimization technique. Dragonfly algorithm (DA) is based on the static and dynamic swarming behaviors of dragonflies in nature. The dragonfly algorithm is used to optimize the scaling factor of the watermarking so that an optimal watermark is embedded. Watermarking algorithms take as input a cover image and the message. The cover image in the proposed method is decomposed into sub bands using discrete wavelet transform (DWT). Thereafter, it is converted to discrete cosine blocks (DCT). An optimal scaling factor is required for performing the watermarking. In this paper, DA is used for computing the scaling factor. The DA generated scaling factor is optimal and improves the performance of the watermarking. The inverse DWT and DCT are computed to extract the watermarked image from the cover image. The proposed method is applied on different images to evaluate the performance. The results obtained are compared with other state of the art methods.

Organizations nowadays focus on, not implementing ERP systems, but also leveraging ERP systems as part of their digital strategy. They holistically address people, processes, and technology for a digital transformation. Meanwhile, higher education institutions (HEIs) are also facing an imperative need for the implementation of modern technologies to stay competitive and differentiate them as an innovation leader. Higher education management is challenged with maintaining high-level information systems. These systems can generate complex real-time reports for effective resource allocation and better decision making. Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems can help HEIs manage their resources and operations effectively. A study of ERP among 112 HEIs in Egypt was conducted. This study originally investigates the Egyptian HEIs’ perception of the ERP system as a new integrating tool for its value. The results showed that Egyptian HEIs are still at the embryonic level as the majority have not adopted these systems yet. However, ERP value has been undoubtedly perceived by HEIs’ managers. Therefore, the present study fruitfully reflected HEIs’ understanding of the imperative need of ERP systems as strategic systems for their competitiveness. Consequently, the study suggests that Egyptian HEIs and ERP vendors take steps to remove any barriers and accelerate the ERP adoption process. Also, this research contributes to the advancement of ERP concepts and characteristics from HEIs' standpoint and a grants practical verification to the higher education context. Overall, the study advances existing knowledge and research on ERP, strategic management systems, and HEIs.

In the digital age, e - learning systems have been employed as new equipment in the higher education system in different universities. Consideringthe importance of optimization of this system, this research is aimed at providing a modelfor the effectiveness of e - learning at in higher education systems . The study is a descriptive survey study in terms of its data collection method . The population includes all the students of electronic courses at the University of Tehran . This population includes 1481 students of the University of Tehran in the academic year 2019 - 2020 . Regarding the population size, 300 students were selectedbased onstratified sampling, using Cochran ’ s formula.Lisrel and Amos softwarewere used for data analysis . In the first step, byliterature review, and based on the collected information, 87 components were identified to be related toe - learning effectiveness . Then, based on the highest frequency of the identified components in one hand, and their significance from the experts ’ viewpoints, on the other hand, 14 components were finally selected and classified in three major classes including;pedagogical, individual and technicalrelated factors.

The backing of the fuzzy ideal is normal ideal in some ring and in same time there fuzzy set whose is not fuzzy ideal and it backing set is ideal, i.e., it crisp is normal ideal. Consequently, in this paper we constructing a fuzziness function which defined on fuzzy sets and assigns membership grade for every fuzzy set whose it backing set are crisp ideal. Now, Let  be collection of all fuzzy subsets of ring  and , and the function  defines from  to, such that the value of the function is greater than zero if the crisp set of fuzzy set is ideal, and the value of the function is equal to one when the crisp set is maximal ideal or is the ring  itself. But if the support of the fuzzy set did not ideal then the value may be equal to or large than 0. Therefore, we add another condition to the fuzziness function to be more determined with respect to the fuzzy set. From above we try to find relation between the fuzzy ideal and its crisp set. This concept is derives from the open grade for all fuzzy set in fuzzy topological space which called smooth topology.

The paper focuses on the urgency of the implementation of cloud technologies, which are a necessary condition for the development of enterprise management systems, give rise to a complex of insufficiently studied phenomena and processes and determine the need to find new tools in making and implementing reasonable management decisions. In the process of research, the sequence of construction and the overall structure of the enterprise management system, based on the use of cloud technologies, are determined, which allowed to build a mathematical model for calculating the probability of making an error-free decision, evaluating the efficiency of decision-making, a model of making a management decision for a certain time with the parallel method of operation of elements of the enterprise management system.

The study is aimed at assessing the strategic importance of a business processes for achieving sustainable competitive advantage, therefore, in this article the theoretical approach for measuring the strategic contribution of a business process to an enterprise’s business system is presented.  For evaluating of a business process strategic importance the study proposes the system of economic and managerial indicators, which includes the process’ contribution to the added value, its compliance to critical success factors, and its organizational involvement. Сombining these three indicators into one integral allows it to be used in different types of matrix analysis to make decisions on improving of a company’s business system.

To bridge the gap between invention and innovation, prenovation has to be focused. One of the elements of prenovation is emphasizing and creating policies for institutions. This research paper highlights the importance of having an intrapreneurial culture in higher education institutions. The purpose of this paper is to review literature related to intrapreneurial culture and find out the positive aspects of having intrapreneurial culture through think tanks in higher education institutes.
