Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCONGESTION MANAGEMENT BY OPTIMAL ALLOCATION OF FACTS CONTROLLERS USING HYBRID FISH BEE OPTIMIZATIONS. Thangalakshmi, P. ValsalalThe role of Independent System Operator (ISO) in the restructured power industry includes system control, capacity planning, transmission tariff and congestion management; the challenging task being minimizing the congestion. One of the popular techniques used to alleviate congestion is using Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices. The power system generally operates near its rated capacity in deregulated market because of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Apr 2014 · 6,648 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFPGA IMPLEMENTATION AND ANALYSIS OF IMPULSE NOISE REDUCTION IN IMAGESP. Thirumurugan, S. Sasikumar, C. SugapriyaThe images are affected by random valued impulse noises during the image capturing and processing stages. In this study, an efficient, high performance and low hardware utilized impulse noise reduction algorithm is presented. This methodology determines the optimum direction pixels through the estimation of standard deviation. The edges in the images are preserved during the process of impulse noise detection … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 7 · 19 Apr 2014 · 7,208 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCOMPUTER AIDED SEGMENTATION OF BRAIN TISSUES USING SOFT COMPUTING TECHNIQUESD. Ramkumar, I. Jacob Raglend, K. BatriIn this study, an efficient computer aided classification of brain tissue in to Gray Matter (GM), White Matter (WM) and Cerebro-Spinal Fluid (CSF) is proposed. The proposed work consists of the following sub blocks like denosing, feature extraction and Classifier. This initial partition is performed by ANFIS after extracting the textural features like local binary pattern and histogram features. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 17 Apr 2014 · 6,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS FOR MEASURING THE CONSUMPTION OF SAVE WATER TAPSInacio Henrique Yano, Vitor Chaves de Oliveira, Eduardo Veiga de Araujo et al.Currently, water consumption is on the agenda of most organizations around the world. Beyond the environmental benefits for a better use of natural resources there is also a financial motivation to continuously reduce operation costs. This study reports a cost-effective solution using a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) for measuring the consumption of different types of save water taps, in a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 1 Apr 2014 · 6,858 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA COMBINED LOW LATENCY AND WEIGHTED FAIR QUEUING BASED SCHEDULING OF AN INPUT-QUEUED SWITCHK. Bommanna Raja, D. RaghupathikumarInput queuing has become dominant and popular building blocks for high speed crossbar switches with many ports and fast line rates because they require minimum speed-up of memory bandwidth. Input Queued switches with finite Virtual Output Queues guarantees QoS performance in terms of throughput and average delay. A switch performs two functions Queuing and Scheduling. Queue Management algorithm manages the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 25 Mar 2014 · 7,232 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF ANTI-COLLISION ENABLED ROBOT USING HYBRID BEACON SCHEDULING APPROACHP. Prabakaran, M. SaravananIn multi-robot environment, when many robots are moving in the same workspace, there is a possibility of their physical collision with themselves as well as with physical objects. In this study, hybrid beacon scheduling protocol is proposed and for avoiding such collisions in robotic mobile environment with low latency and power consumption. The purpose of deploying this protocol is to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 6 Mar 2014 · 6,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTRUSTWORTHY ENABLED RELIABLE COMMUNICATION ARCHITECTURE IN MOBILE AD HOC NETWORKSaravanan Dhavamani, Chandarasekaran Ramasamy, M. G. Sharavana KumarAd hoc networks are widely used in military and other scientific area. There are various kind of routing protocols are available to establish the route, with the proper analyzation one can choose the routing protocol to form their own network with respect to number of nodes and security considerations. The mobility of nodes makes the environment infrastructure less. It also … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 12 Feb 2014 · 7,001 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConditioned Slicing for Efficient Multiway Decision Graphs Model-CheckerSaad ElmansoriIntegrating formal verification techniques into the hardware design process provides the means to rigorously prove critical properties. However, most automatic verification techniques, such as model checking, are only effectively applicable to designs of limited sizes due to the state explosion problem. The Multiway Decision Graphs (MDG) method is an efficient method to define hardware designs into more abstract environments; however, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 23 Apr 2013 · 6,374 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Between Dispersion and Mean Toassess Healthcare Servicee FficiencyRamalingam ShanmugamMotivation for this research work started while helping a hospital administrator to assess whether patient oriented activity duration, X≥0 is reflecting the service’s efficiency? Higher value of the sample mean duration, X implies lesser productivity in the hospital and more healthcare cost. Likewise, larger value of sample dispersion, sx2 in the service durations is an indicator of lesser reliability and … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Aug 2012 · 6,876 accessesView PDFCite
