Detection of Infeasible Paths in Software Testing using UML Application to Gold Vending Machine
Статья научная
Software testing is an integral part of the software development cycle. Software testing involves designing a set of test cases. In white box testing, test cases are usually designed based using path testing. The basis path testing approach involves generation of test cases from a set of independent paths. Each test case is forced to execute a certain test path of the control flow graph. Some cases might arise paths of the control flow graph have no test data to force execution. These paths are infeasible paths. Identification and removal of infeasible paths earlier will reduce testing efforts and cost. In the present work, we used Unified Modeling Language (UML) for detecting of these infeasible paths. For detection of these infeasible paths, the author builds the control flow graph from sequence diagram and then generated independent paths from it. Each path is converted into a set of a linear equation and solved. If there is an inconsistent solution, then the corresponding path is infeasible. The presented approach is evaluated on a case study of an automatic gold vending machine.

Development of Knowledge Graph for University Courses Management
Статья научная
The task of Allocating courses to lecturers in many tertiary institutions is done manually by typing using word processor application. Motivated by the widespread application of knowledge graphs in different domains, we present automated approach based on knowledge graph to address the problem of manual course allocation to, a task usually carried out at the beginning of every semester or academic year by departments in tertiary institutions. The development of knowledge graph in a way that enables easy manipulation and automatic generation of course allocation schedule is the core contribution of this paper. Rather than storing the data in relational database tables, the system stores data in a knowledge graph which is in RDF/XML format and refer to it to support intelligent knowledge services. In addition to automatic generation of course allocation schedule, another important feature of the system proposed in this paper is its ability to enable easy implementation of tasks similar to Question Answering that are very important to education administrators, which the existing manual approach does not provide.

Development of Two-factor Authentication Login System Using Dynamic Password with SMS Verification
Статья научная
Two-factor authentication is a method of security that adds an extra layer of protection by requiring users to have two different authentication factors to verify identity. In recent years, institutions and organizations have become more concerned with the security aspects of their networks and systems, and one of these aspects is ensuring that the individual seeking access to the system is who he claims to be. With the advancement in technology and science over time, it has been seen that the safety and security of sensitive information or data transferred over the internet from one network to another has become increasingly relevant. The reliance on access to login accounts and the use of static passwords makes it easy for hackers, identity thieves, and fraudsters to gain access. Therefore, there is a need to find solutions to overcome the weaknesses to provide a more secure environment, hence, adding another step of authentication to individual identity makes it more difficult for an attacker to gain access to personal data. The proposed system generates dynamic password (OTP), which helps to add another level of security to the system against Dictionary attack, Brute-force attack especially Perfect-Man-In-The-Middle attack. The project used the Obafemi Awolowo University (OAU) e-portal login system as a case study. The system was implemented using the MySQL, CSS, HTML and PHP programming language and evaluated using reliability, effectiveness, efficiency, usability, expediency, and satisfactoriness as metrics. A questionnaire was formulated using a rating scale of 1 - 5, with 1 representing extremely poor and 5 representing excellent. The questionnaire was given to twenty (20) randomly selected students of OAU. The average score was determined and all the metrics scored higher than 4.0, which signifies a good rating. The system developed is a useful starting point for future development in security applications that require two-factor authentication. The result show that with the developed system, it can be assured that all logins are legitimate and that users are safe by verifying that the individual seeking access to the system is who he claims to be. A more user-friendly GUI is planned for the future and expanding the OTP algorithm such that password can be generated based on different cryptographic functions.

The accuracy of population forecasts is one of the most important calculations in demography statistics. However, traditional demographic methods used in population projections are tend to produce biased results. The need for accurate prediction of future behavior in a number of areas require the application of reliable and efficient methods. Recently, machine learning (ML) models have emerged as a serious competitor to classical statistical models in the forecasting community. In this study, the performance and capacity of the four different ML models such as Random forest (RF), Decision tree (DT), Linear regression (LR) and K-nearest neighbors (KNN) to the prediction of population has been examined. The aim of the study is to find the best performing regression model among these machine learning algorithms for forecasting of population. The data were collected from the State Statistical Committee of the Republic of Azerbaijan website were used for the analysis. We used five metrics such as mean absolute percentage error (MAPE), mean absolute error (MAE), root mean squared error (RMSE), mean square error (MSE) and R-squared to compare the predictive ability of the models. As the result of the analysis, it has been known that the all ML models showed high results with correlation coefficient of 0.985 - 0.996. Also the KNN and RF prediction models showed the lowest root mean square deviation, means square error and mean absolute error values compared to other models. By effectively using the advantage of the ML algorithms, the forecast of population growth the near future can be observed objectively, and it can provide an objective reference to the strategic planning in the public and private sectors, particularly in education, health and social areas.

Development of relevance feedback system using regression predictive model and TF-IDF algorithm
Статья научная
Domain-specific retrieval systems developed for a homogenous group of users can potentially optimise the recommendation of relevant web documents in minimal time as compared to generic systems built for a heterogeneous group of users. Domain-specific retrieval systems are normally developed by learning from users’ past interactions, as a group or individual, with an information system. This paper focuses on the recommendation of relevant web documents to a cohort of users based on their search behaviour. Simulated task situations were used to group users of the same domain. The motivation behind this work is to help a cohort of users find relevant documents that will satisfy their information needs effectively. An aggregated implicit predictive model derived from correlating implicit and explicit feedback parameters was integrated with the traditional term frequency/inverse document frequency (tf-idf) algorithm to improve the relevancy of retrieval results. The aggregated model system was evaluated in terms of recall and precision (Mean Average Precision) by comparing it with self-designed retrieval system and a generic system. The performance of the three systems was measured based on the relevant documents returned. The results showed that the aggregated domain-specific system performed better in returning relevant documents as compared to the other two systems.
