Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLife Long Learning: Seniors in Second Life ContinuumC. D. Seals, W. Moses, J. Nyagwencha et al.Senior citizens represented the fastest growing demographic worldwide. As indicated in the Year 2000 US Census, there were 35 million people 65 or older in the US and by 2030, it was estimated that there were about 70 million older adults in the US alone. With the older population growing rapidly and being increasingly exposed to computers and technology, it … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,110 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring Strategies for Parallel Computing of RS Data Assimilation with SWAP-GAShamim Akhter, Kiyoshi Honda, Yann Chemin, Putchong UthayopasAn agro-hydrological simulation model is useful for agriculture monitoring. One issue in running such model is parameter identification, especially when the target area is large such as provincial or country level. Remote Sensing (RS) provides us with useful information over large area. RS cannot observe input parameters of agro-hydrological models directly. However, a method to estimate input parameters of such … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 7,209 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Large Block Cipher Using Modular Arithmetic Inverse of a Key Matrix and Mixing of the Key Matrix and the PlaintextV. U.K. Sastry, S. Udaya Kumar, A. Vinaya babuIn this paper, we have developed a block cipher by applying an iterative method. In the process of encryption, we have used a key matrix (K) in which all the elements are binary bits. In the process of decryption, we have utilized the modular arithmetic inverse (K-1). In the process of encryption, the elements of the plaintext and the elements … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,796 accessesView PDFCite
