Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Information Asymmetry on Municipal Bond Yields: An Empirical AnalysisKenneth Daniels, Demissew Diro EjaraProblem statement: There is a significant difference between the interest rates on the GO and the RV municipal bonds. We sought explanation for this difference in differences in information asymmetry between the two types of municipal bonds. GO bonds finance general municipality expenditures and repayment is from general tax revenues. RV bonds finance special projects and repayment is from cash … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,033 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProof-Carrying Code Based Tool for Secure Information Flow of Assembly ProgramsAbdulrahman Muthana, Abdul Azim Abd Ghani, Ramlan Mahmod, Hasan SelamatProblem statement: How a host (the code consumer) can determine with certainty that a downloaded program received from untrusted source (the code producer) will maintain the confidentiality of the data it manipulates and it is safe to install and execute. Approach: The approach adopted for verifying that a downloaded program will not leak confidential data to unauthorized parties was based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,354 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAerodynamic Noise Prediction Using stochastic Turbulence ModelingArash Ahmadzadegan, Mehran TadjfarAmongst many approaches to determine the sound propagated from turbulent flows, hybrid methods, in which the turbulent noise source field is computed or modeled separately from the far field calculation, are frequently used. For basic estimation of sound propagation, less computationally intensive methods can be developed using stochastic models of the turbulent fluctuations (turbulent noise source field). A simple and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Investigation of Valve Lift Effect on Air Flow and Coefficient of Discharge of Four Stroke Engines Based on ExperimentAbdul Rahim Ismail, Rosli Abu Bakar, SeminThe coefficient of discharge (CD) is defined as the ratio of actual discharge to ideal discharge. In an engine environment, ideal discharge considers an ideal gas and the process to be free from friction, surface tension, etc. Coefficients of discharge are widely used to monitor the flow efficiency through various engine components and are quite useful in improving the performance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,431 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThree Algorithms for Flexible Flow-shop SchedulingTzung-Pei Hong, Pei-Ying Huang, Gwoboa Horng, Chan-Lon WangScheduling is an important process widely used in manufacturing, production, management, computer science, and so on. Appropriate scheduling can reduce material handling costs and time. Finding good schedules for given sets of jobs can thus help factory supervisors effectively control job flows and provide solutions for job sequencing. In simple flow shop problems, each machine operation center includes just one … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 6,969 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Simulation of 2_D Turbidity Currents and Wall JetM.H. Shojaeefard, K. Goudarzi, H. Ghasvari JahromiDense underflows are continuous currents, which move down the slope due to the fact that, their density are heavier than ambient water. In turbidity currents the density differences arises from suspended solids. Vicinity of the wall make density currents and wall jets similar in some sense but Variation of density cause this flows more complex than wall jets. An improved … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,034 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCross Layer Optimization Based on Rate Distribution in Multirate Wireless Sensor NetworkHonggang Wang, Dongming Peng, Wei Wang, Hamid SharifIt is important to increase the Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) lifetime, due to its limited energy resource, while meeting the constraints of applications. Recent Advances for In-Network Processing (INP) motivate many WSN applications which are based on multi rate and distributed signal processing, and therefore require the support of rate-based routing as well as MAC and link layer designs to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,552 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting River Flow in the USA: A Comparison between Auto-Regression and Neural Network Non-Parametric ModelsAbdel K.M. Baareh, Alaa F. Sheta, Khaled A. KhnaifesForecasting a time series became one of the most challenging tasks to variety of data sets. The existence of large number of parameters to be estimated and the effect of uncertainty and outliers in the measurements makes the time series modeling too complicated. Recently, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) became quite successful tool to handle time series modeling problem. This paper … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,962 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Network on Chip resources allocation for QoS ManagementAbdelhamid HELALI, Adel SOUDANI, Jamila BHAR, Salem NASRIThe increasing complexity of integrated circuits and application requirements drive the research of new on-chip interconnection architectures. A network on chip draws on concepts inherited from distributed systems and computer networks subject areas to interconnect IP cores in a structured and scalable way. The main goal pursued is to achieve superior bandwidth when compared to conventional on-chip bus architectures. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,307 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModelling the Effect of Salinity on the Multivariate Distribution of a Water Quality IndexDaniela cocchi, Michele scagliariniSalinity is a tracer of water and nutrient flows and is employed in studies on coastal environment to establish the coastal or remote origins of pollutants and nutrients. The present article analyses the effects of salinity on the multivariate distribution of the Trophic Index TRIX. The approach taken is based on a multivariate nested model with salinity as an explicative … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 5,915 accessesView PDFCite
