The chapter focuses on signing avatars and their potential to improve deaf education. In sections 1 and 2, the authors give an overview of what signing avatars are and the benefits of using animated characters for deaf education. In section 3, they explain how signing avatars are created. In particular, in subsection 3.1, they describe different types of 3D models and skeletal deformation systems, and in subsection 3.2 the authors discuss a variety of methods used to animate manual and non-manual signs. In section 4 they report the state of the art in signing avatars’ research and development and we discuss existing limitations and future trends. Section 5 includes a case study on the production of the signing avatars for SMILE™ and Mathsigner™ Conclusive remarks are presented in section 6.

ABSTRAKTugas akhir ini tentang penanganan surat masuk secara elektronik menggunakan aplikasi Naskah Dinas Elektronik (Nadine) di Pusat Penelitian dan Pengembangan Teknologi Ketenagalistrikan, Energi Baru Terbarukan, dan Konservasi Energi (P3tek KEBTKE) – Kementerian Energi dan Sumber Daya Mineral. Metode penulisan tugas akhir ini adalah pengamatan, wawancara, praktik kerja, dan studi literatur. Hasil dari tugas akhir ini adalah aplikasi Nadine merupakan modernisasi tata usaha persuratan sehingga penanganan surat masuk menjadi lebih cepat dan dapat dilakukan dimana saja. Walaupun begitu, manfaat aplikasi Nadine dapat ditingkatkan lagi dengan pemberian waktu input data surat masuk yang lebih lama serta penyediaan panduan penggunaan dalam bentuk file pdf maupun dalam bentuk video tutorial. Kata kunci: Surat Masuk, Aplikasi, Naskah Dinas Elektronik  HANDLING OF INCOME LETTER ON ADMINISTRATION AND STAFFING SECTION THROUGH NADINE APPLICATIONS IN ELECTRICITY, NEW RENEWABLE ENERGY, AND ENERGY CONSERVATION TECHNOLOGY RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT CENTERS ABSTRACTThis thesis is about the management of incoming mail through the application of Electronic Service Manuscript or called Nadine in the Research and Development Centre for Electricity, New Renewable Energy, and Energy Conservation Technology (P3tek KEBTKE) – Ministry of Energy and Mineral Resources. The methodologies of this thesis are observation, interview, internship, and literature review. The result of the thesis is that the Nadine application is a modernization of mail administration so mail handling becomes faster and can be conducted in anywhere. Nevertheless, the benefits of Nadine application can be enhanced by adding more time to input data of incoming mails and by providing Nadine’s user guideline in form of pdf file and tutorial video.  Keyword: Incoming mail, applications, Electronic Service Manuscript

The 4 th joint BIRNDL workshop was held at the 42nd ACM SIGIR Conference on Research and Development in Information Retrieval (SIGIR 2019) in Paris, France. BIRNDL 2019 intended to stimulate IR researchers and digital library professionals to elaborate on new approaches in natural language processing, information retrieval, scientometrics, and recommendation techniques that can advance the state-of-the-art in scholarly document understanding, analysis, and retrieval at scale. The workshop incorporated different paper sessions and the 5 th edition of the CL-SciSumm Shared Task.

The analysis of controlled drugs in forensic matrices, i.e., urine, blood, plasma, saliva, and hair, is one of the current hot topics in the clinical and toxicological context. The use of microextraction-based approaches has gained considerable notoriety, mainly due to the great simplicity, cost-benefit, and environmental sustainability. For this reason, the application of these innovative techniques has become more relevant than ever in programs for monitoring priority substances such as the main illicit drugs, e.g., opioids, stimulants, cannabinoids, hallucinogens, dissociative drugs, and related compounds. The present contribution aims to make a comprehensive review on the state-of-the art advantages and future trends on the application of microextraction-based techniques for screening-controlled drugs in the forensic context.

In the last years, a change in the power generation paradigm has been promoted by the increasing use of renewable energy sources combined with the need to reduce CO2 emissions. Small and distributed power generators are preferred to the classical centralized and sizeable ones. Accordingly, this fact led to a new way to think and design distributions grids. One of the challenges is to handle bidirectional power flow at the distribution substations transformer from and to the national transportation grid. The aim of this paper is to review and analyze the different mathematical methods to design the architecture of a distribution grid and the state of the art of the technologies used to produce and eventually store or convert, in different energy carriers, electricity produced by renewable energy sources, coping with the aleatory of these sources.
