Implementation of a personalized food recommendation system based on collaborative filtering and knapsack method

Food recommendation system is one of the most interesting recommendation problems since it provides data for decision-making to users on selection of foods that meets individual preference of each user. Personalized recommender system has been used to recommend foods or menus to respond to requirements and restrictions of each user in a better way. This research study aimed to develop a personalized healthy food recommendation system based on collaborative filtering and knapsack method. Assessment results found that users were satisfied with the personalized healthy food recommendation system based on collaborative filtering and knapsack problem algorithm which included ability of operating system, screen design, and efficiency of operating system. The average satisfaction score overall was 4.20 implying that users had an excellent level of satisfaction.

Web-Based Research in Psychology

The present article reviews web-based research in psychology. It captures principles, learnings, and trends in several types of web-based research that show similar developments related to web technology and its major shifts (e.g., appearance of search engines, browser wars, deep web, commercialization, web services, HTML5…) as well as distinct challenges. The types of web-based research discussed are web surveys and questionnaire research, web-based tests, web experiments, Mobile Experience Sampling, and non-reactive web research, including big data. A number of web-based methods are presented and discussed that turned out to become important in research methodology. These are one-item-one-screen design, seriousness check, instruction manipulation and other attention checks, multiple site entry technique, subsampling technique, warm-up technique, and web-based measurement. Pitfalls and best practices are described then, especially regarding dropout and other non-response, recruitment of participants, and interaction between technology and psychological factors. The review concludes with a discussion of important concepts that have developed over 25 years and an outlook on future developments in web-based research.

Design, Development and Installation of Modular Inflow Control Technology

Integrating a flow control sliding sleeve into a sand screen can provide multiple advantages to the user in controlling the production inflow. Although it does come with an increased completion cost as well as the number of interventions required when its time to operate those valves. Especially in long horizontal wells, this can become time consuming and inefficient. A few technologies exist to address this issue but they are either too complex or require specialized rigging equipment at the wellsite, which is not desirable. As described herein, a unique, fit for application modular sliding sleeve sand screen assembly with dissolvable plugs was developed that eliminates wash-pipe and allows flow from several screens controlled via a single sliding sleeve. Design and field installation of these modular screens is presented in this paper. The new modular sand-screen consisted of an upper joint, modular middle joint, modular middle joint with ICD/SSD (w/ optional dissolvable plugs), and a lower joint, and novel field installable flow couplings between them. The design allowed for any number of non-ICD/SSD screen joints to be connected to any number of ICD/SSD joints in any order. A computer-aided design was followed to achieve all the operational/mechanical requirements, Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) was used to optimize the flow performance characteristics. Prototypes were manufactured and tested prior to conducting successful field trials. The conceptualization and design stage provided several challenges as different ways to achieving modularity and interconnectivity were explored (such as internal to the tubing or external, sealing methods, ease of installation, reliability). Several design calculations were performed to select the most robust design and most suitable solution for the application. Design for manufacturing review, design calculations and CFD analysis helped with the selection of a concept that maximized the flow rates and kept flow velocity under the limit through the critical sections. Dissolvable plugs were used to temporarily close the SSD ports for wash-pipe free installation. The sealing mechanism of plugs was confirmed by differential pressure test up to 500 psi. A valuable, new downhole modular screen design for use w/ICD/SSD providing intervention-less completions without involving complex/expensive technologies is developed, tested and installed. A new, field-proven, modular sand control technology allowing flow from several non-ICD/SSD screen joints to drain into a single ICD/SSD joint, thus eliminating the need to run ICD/SSD on every screen joint in an unconsolidated formation is developed. Dissolvable plug integrated into sliding sleeve ports allowed wash pipe free installation. The technology allows increasing/decreasing the total drainage length at the well site per zonal requirements, thereby reducing costs and improving performance.

Perancangan Aplikasi Go Grouph Math sebagai Sarana Penyelesaian Tugas Kelompok

<p><em>The purpose of this research is to design an android-based groupware called Go Group Math as part of the media or application to support group work in particular which can later be used for mathematics subjects. The method used in this research was Research and Development (RnD) using the ADDIE model, namely Analyze, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation. Activities in research carried out in this research have only reached the stage of designing a screen display that will be used later in the application development stage using various database sources. The results of this study discovered that there was already a display screen design that will be used as a screen display on an Android smartphone. This research was expected to be useful for various groups in the world of education, especially teachers, lecturers, students, and students.</em></p>

A Comparison of Children’s Reading on Paper Versus Screen: A Meta-Analysis

This meta-analysis examines the inconsistent findings across experimental studies that compared children’s learning outcomes with digital and paper books. We quantitatively reviewed 39 studies reported in 30 articles (n = 1,812 children) and compared children’s story comprehension and vocabulary learning in relation to medium (reading on paper versus on-screen), design enhancements in digital books, the presence of a dictionary, and adult support for children aged between 1 and 8 years. The comparison of digital versus paper books that only differed by digitization showed lower comprehension scores for digital books. Adults’ mediation during print books’ reading was more effective than the enhancements in digital books read by children independently. However, with story-congruent enhancements, digital books outperformed paper books. An embedded dictionary had no or negative effect on children’s story comprehension but positively affected children’s vocabulary learning. Findings are discussed in relation to the cognitive load theory and practical design implications.
