We propose a smart medication dispenser having a high degree of scalability and remote manageability. We construct the dispenser to have extensible hardware architecture for achieving scalability, and we install an agent program in it for achieving remote manageability. The dispenser operates as follows: when the real-time clock reaches the predetermined medication time and the user presses the dispense button at that time, the predetermined medication is dispensed from the medication dispensing tray (MDT). In the proposed dispenser, the medication for each patient is stored in an MDT. One smart medication dispenser contains mainly one MDT; however, the dispenser can be extended to include more MDTs in order to support multiple users using one dispenser. For remote management, the proposed dispenser transmits the medication status and the system configurations to the monitoring server. In the case of a specific event such as a shortage of medication, memory overload, software error, or non-adherence, the event is transmitted immediately. All these operations are performed automatically without the intervention of patients, through the agent program installed in the dispenser. Results of implementation and verification show that the proposed dispenser operates normally and performs the management operations from the medication monitoring server suitably.

A variant of programming the microcontroller and modeling the system in the «Proteus» RTC (Real Time Clock) circuit, together with LED matrices, is proposed. The practical significance of the work is the study of the simplest logic circuits in the AVR assembler language, for instance, a shift register, a decoder, a LED matrix, a real-time clock circuit and a seven-bit indicator, both individually and in a full-fledged system. This work can be used for teaching students and for laboratory work in distance learning.

Given the degree of complexity of modern magnetotelluric (MT) instrumentation, comparison of the total performance for two or more systems is an important verification test. This paper compares the processed data from five MT systems which were designed and constructed separately, and which employ different electrode types, electrode separations, magnetometers, and methods of signal processing. The comparison shows that there is a high degree of agreement among the data from the different systems. The study also demonstrates the compatibility and reliability of the MT systems employed as part of EMSLAB Juan de Fuca (Electromagnetic Sounding of the Lithosphere and Asthenosphere Beneath the Juan de Fuca Plate). This project, proposed by a consortium of institutions, involves not only magnetotellurics studies but also studies of magnetic variation, on land and on the sea bottom. The project calls for the real‐time MT systems to occupy stations along segments of a profile in Oregon. A composite profile will be created from the segments. Prior to commencing the main MT profiling phase, one week was set aside in August, 1984, for all groups to record and process MT data sequentially at six sites in diverse geologic terrains; this experiment was called mini‐EMSLAB.


When transporting the goods from one place to another place the components should work perfectly according to our application. This project shows you how to get temperature and humidity values for particular components which are kept in a certain room or area or during the shifting process along with the real time clock. Sometimes due to room temperatures also we can observe a change in the component readings. So in that cases, data logger systems will be helpful. Here we are measuring various weather parameters like temperature, humidity, time and date. For this we require sensors for getting temperature and humidity values and a real time clock is used to get real time. We can retain previous values also by using previous records. Finally, we can display these parameters on the LCD display and save the records so that we can access the previous records. For this storage we can use controller memory or else externally we can connect the memory called SD-card.

Data acquisition of wind speed, wind direction and environmental temperature are needed to get the data potential of wind power. The aim of this research is to generate a device of wind speed, wind direction and temperature with the real time condition. With this device, we will obtain an analysis about the potential of wind power electrical generation around the Puger beach, Jember, Indonesia. In this study, parameters investigated were made into three types of measurement variables that measure of wind speed, wind direction, temperature and a data  to show real time data..The device which is used to measure wind speed using hall effect sensor as a transducer. With using of the active magnet that spins will be created pwm that will be read by sensor to get the wind speed. As for the shows wind direction, we use a compass sensor CMPS 03 is a digital sensor that outputs in the form of digital bits so that be able to show wind direction from 0° to 360°. The magnitude of angle will be used in analyzing the direction of the wind, the real time clock (RTC) will be used to directly to determine the time and date of recording data. Then the temperature DS1621 sensor to show environmental temperature.

A new type of case study, called the real-time case (RTC), was produced in the fall of 2001 and distributed via the Internet to business classes at four universities in the U.S. and Canada. The real-time case presented the story of one company's growth and development throughout a 14-week semester. A case writer stationed full-time at the subject company published case installments weekly on the Web, allowing students to view the company-building process as it happened. The 14-week coverage of RTC enabled students to study the subject company in unprecedented depth and detail. RTC's real-time interactivity allowed students to share their analyses and best thinking with the company leadership during the company’s decision-making process.A major objective in producing the case was to heighten student engagement with the case material. To evaluate whether this objective was achieved, a survey was conducted with the participating classes. Results from the survey showed a high degree of engagement, plus many other benefits from the new type of case study.
