SCADA security using packet filtering firewall.

Abstract: This thesis focuses on implementing packet filtering firewall technique for protecting SCADA system. It uses filtering criteria to decide whether to permit or deny packets entry into the network. Parts of the packet that are examined are; the source IP address, the destination IP address, and the Internet protocols carried by the packet. At the beginning, the miniature SCADA system was implemented on two computers to take overview on the basic component of SCADA system, and to preview the data transmission between them.

Road extraction based on balloon snakes technique

Abstract: The extraction of roads from aerial and satellite images is an important task within cartography and planning of new road networks. The recent developments of the Geographic Information System (GIS) require rapid updates of roads all over the planet. Over the past few decades, many automatic and semi-automatic methods were developed for the purpose of road extractions which vary in planning, techniques and application from one to another. The objective of this thesis is to develop and implement a road extraction system.

Automatic voltage regulator based on FPGA technology

Abstract: In recent years, the scale of power systems has been expanding and with that expansion stable power supply and smooth power system operation is becoming increasingly important. One measure for increasing stability is to improve the main circuits by raising the voltage or employing series capacitors in power transmission lines, but the generator exciter control method, which makes use of AVR (automatic voltage regulator), is attracting attention because of its inherent cost advantage.

Robust control of micromotion system

A robust controller design for a micro motion system represented by a piezoelectric bimorph actuator is considered. The dynamic model of the piezoelectric actuator with nonlinear hysteresis is presented. The nonlinear dynamics of the actuator are first linearized using the stochastic equivalent linearization method. Then a robust controller is designed for the piezoelectric actuator system using a state space approach which guarantees stability and good performance of the controlled system. Three approaches are considered.

Implementation of WEP attack in IEEE 802.11b

Abstract: Wireless networking is a double-edged sword. The interception of wireless communications has existed as a problem when sensitive data are exchanged. In order to protect the data from eavesdroppers, various forms of encryption have been used to scramble the data. The IEEE 802.11 standard for wireless network describes an encryption protocol called Wired Equivalent Privacy (WEP). The goal of WEP is to make WLAN communication as secure as wired LAN data transmissions would be, by protecting link-layer communication from eavesdropping and other attacks.

Face recognition system based on radial basis function neural network

Abstract : The global development of security system around the world made the field of recognition most needed, and led the idea of recognition grew up in researchers work; many specifications were found in mankind to differentiate between one and another. However, some of them were old like finger print and other types were modern as iris print, face, sound, palm print and DNA print. This thesis proposed a face recognition system. It is based mainly on classifier unit, which had been chosen as Radial Basis Function Neural Network (RBFN).

Development of high performance PC clusters computing system for engineering applications

Abstract : Supercomputing technologies have been limited to the powerful first world nations for a very long time due to the extremely high costs involved in setting-up and maintaining supercomputers. Recently, the availability of high speed networks and increasingly powerful commodity microprocessors is making the usage of clusters, or network of computers as an attractive field for cost effective parallel computing.

Self-guidance mobile vehicle: design and implementation

Abstract : This thesis deals with the mobile robot self_guidance detection, recognition and tracking, which heads towards a classified object through a combination of hardware and software processing, where an object is selected through a live screen selection then detected through several methods in addition to state predication of the next position concerning mobile robot instant tracking . The mobile robot will head towards the specified object, finally stops before touching it.
