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 PDF Cite

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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Integrated Production Scheduling System in the Process IndustryMohamed K. Omar, Yasothei A.P. Suppiah, Siew C. TeoThis study introduces a three-level hierarchical production planning and scheduling approach developed and implemented in a resin factory. Our approach proposes at the first level a mixed-integer linear programming for solving the aggregate planning model. At the second level, a weighted-integer goal-programming model is developed to disaggregate the developed aggregate plans. A sequencing algorithm is developed for the third level … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,862 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTwo Mathematical Modeling Approaches for Integrating Production and Transportation Decisions in the Process IndustryMohamed K. Omar, A. AjithaIn this study we focus on coordination of the production planning of finished products and intermediate products in the process industry. The problem consists of two manufacturing facilities with similar production environment, one producing the intermediates and the other producing end products that are separated by a distance. There is transportation between the facilities. The problem considered has been formulated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,521 accessesView PDF Cite
