High Velocity Oxygen Fuel (HVOF) is an excellent approach to prepare a good, wear-resistant lamella of Chromium Carbide-Nickel Chrome (Cr3C2-NiCr) on carbon steel for high temperature application. This research investigates the effect of a thin, deposited layer of Cr3C2-NiCr on carbon steel in terms of wear and corrosion properties. The microstructure of the HVOF-sprayed Cr3C2-NiCr coating was characterized at each step by scanning electron microscopy. Wear testing was performed with a pin-on-disk tester. Wear weight loss was examined by applying different loads over a 9048.96 m sliding distance. Experimental results show that the wear resistance of the coated sample reduced the risk of seizure compared to the uncoated sample. An electrochemical test was also performed and the behavior of the substrate in the coated sample was investigated in 3.5% NaCl for 27 days. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) showed that the HVOF coating has high corrosion resistance and protects th...

Advances in technology have a great impact on human society not only in education and entertainment, but even medical and agriculture sectors. Smart farming amalgamates this in order to enhance productivity and cut the operation cost. Thus, in this paper, we propose a novel smart system based on poultry farming over EVAP systems by utilizing mobile and wireless sensor networks with a well–known sensor mote, Tmote Sky, towards a WCF web service interaction. This system assists mobile users/ administrators to observe, and especially control an environmental behavior including an additional alert feature when there is a sudden environmental change with configured thresholds. The paper describes instruments and components of the key design of the system. For performance evaluation, we also practically investigated transmitted power consumption characteristics of sensor nodes using CTP and Dissemination multi–hop routing protocols.

Due to great advantages that Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA) offers to its adopters in almost all fields, many studies tried to leverage it in grid computing. These studies focused on enabling easy access and flexible management to underlying grid resources. However, none of them allowed access to grid resources through various technologies. Rather, most of them utilized SOA in terms of XML web services without considering its limitations. In this paper, we will introduce a high level architecture that goes beyond traditional efforts in leveraging SOA in grid computing. This architecture uses Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) model by leveraging Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) to offer a number of endpoints for published services. With these endpoints different requirements from both grid clients and executors could be easily and efficiently met. Proposed architecture does not tend to supersede other SOA-based grid computing frameworks and standards. Instead, it offers a new method for wrapping grid computing resources with a set of configurable WCF services that could be utilized by these frameworks.

Banyumas is located in the southwest of Central Java province. Banyumas is a tourist destination that offers a variety of interesting attractions to visit, which include natural attractions, arts and culture, as well as culinary tourism. Business growth in the culinary and hospitality sectors in Banyumas region since 2011 experienced a significant increase in terms of quantity. Two of the business sectors are a potential contributing factor for the tourism sector in Banyumas. This study attempts to introduce and market the potential for tourism, arts and culture, as well as the culinary experience in Banyumas, through WCF which is a middleware application development that can be used by client applications to provide
information about the potential of tourism, arts and culture of Banyumas. A multi-step study was conducted starting with data collection, analysis of functional requirements, system design, implementation, and testing of WCF applications. The WCF application consists of several services, namely download service
information lists, attractions, arts, cultural and culinary information, lodging information, and downloading the tourism image data from the server. Based on the test results of the service, it can be concluded that the service functions properly and is able to distribute information to the client.
