The change of functional use and future increased load of structure lead to the need for strengthening of concrete structure. Approach: This research focuses on behaviors under static loading … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,869 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIndividual Factors and Knowledge SharingEugene Okyere-Kwakye, Khalil Md NorProblem statement: Knowledge management has been acknowledged as an important element for businesses today.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Bayesian Networks in Classification-and-Ranking Architecture of Response GenerationAida Mustapha, Md. Nasir Sulaiman, Ramlan Mahmod, Mohd. Hasan SelamatProblem statement: The first component in classification-and-ranking architecture is a Bayesian classifier that classifies user utterances into response classes based on their semantic and pragmatic interpretations. Bayesian networks are sufficient if data is limited to single user input utterance. However, if the classifier is able to collate features from a sequence of previous n-1 user utterances, the additional information may … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2010 · 8,106 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Pre-Processing and Classification Techniques for Single-Trial and Multi-Trial P300-Based Brain Computer InterfacesChanan S. Syan, Randy E.S. HarnarinesinghThe P300 component of Event Related Brain Potentials (ERP) is commonly used in Brain Computer Interfaces (BCI) to translate the intentions of an individual into commands for external devices. The P300 response, however, resides in a signal environment of high background noise. Consequently, the main problem in developing a P300-based BCI lies in identifying the P300 response in the presence … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,577 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpecialization of Recursive Predicates from Positive Examples OnlyMoussa DembaProblem statement: Given an overly general (definite) program P and its intended semantics Φ (the programmer’s intentions) where P does not satisfy Φ, find out a new version P’ of P such that P’ satisfies Φ. Approach: We proposed an approach for correcting overly general programs from positive examples by exploiting program synthesis techniques. The synthesized program, P’, is a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 6,856 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Street Vendors of Bangkok: Alternatives to Indoor Retailers at a Time of Economic CrisisJohn WalshProblem statement: During an economic crisis, consumers will use different techniques to make their money go as far as possible: More carefully comparing prices at point of sale locations, bringing out the coins they previously left unused in saving banks, switching to lower cost options and choosing to shop in less convenient locations in order to find discounts.

Are markets and environments concrete entities that exist “out there” or are they socially constructed by human imagination and intentional language use? Approach: Using a case study approach, the interactions in a small investment firm were analyzed to bring to surface the complex relationship among markets, enactment … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Empirical Prediction Formula for Penetration of Ogive Nose Hard Missile into Concrete TargetsAhmad Mujahid Ahmad Zaidi, Qadir Bux Alias Imran Latif, Ismail Abdul Rahman, Muhammad Yusof IsmailProblem statement: Concrete is basic construction material used for most of structures. However, the typical vital structures have to be designed as self-protective such as nuclear plants, power plants, weapon industries, weapons storage places and water retaining structures, against any threats like natural disaster tragedy incident or intentionally produced by horrible incidents such as dynamic loading, incident occurs in nuclear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 8,451 accessesView PDFCite
