Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Optimization of Physics Simulations Through Genetic AlgorithmsOksana Shadura, Federico Carminati, Anatoliy PetrenkoThe GeantV R&D approach is revisiting the standard particle transport simulation approach to be able to benefit from “Single Instruction, Multiple Data” (SIMD) computational architectures or extremely parallel systems like coprocessors and GPUs. The goal of this work is to develop a mechanism for optimizing the programs used for High-Energy Physics (HEP) particle transport simulations using a “black-box” optimization approach. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2019 · 8,096 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Review of the Recent Advances Made in the Black-Scholes Models and Respective Solutions MethodsYasir Hamad Al Saedi, Gurudeo Anand TularamThe Black-Scholes model has been a major advance in finance over a period of time; this paper examines this model in some detail, in terms of the latest developments in both analytical and numerical solutions. The paper initially briefly examines historical aspects but quickly moves to a critical analysis of the works in the applications, solutions and implications for the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2018 · 8,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Uniform Truncated Negative Binomial Distribution and its PropertiesBahady I. Kamel, Shaban E. Abo Youssef, Mohamed G. SiefA new three parameters continuous distribution which is named the Uniform Truncated Negative Binomial (UTNB) distribution is introduced. It has the uniform and the Marshall-Olkin extended uniform distributions as sub-models. Some reliability and statistical properties of the new distribution are derived, including the shape behavior of the density and hazard rate functions, the mean residual life, moments and moment generating … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 29 Nov 2016 · 7,312 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVisual Curvatures of H1N1 Incidences in African, Asian, European, American and Oceanic NationsRamalingam ShanmugamThe World Health Organization (WHO) was worried about the outbreak of H1N1 epidemic worldwide as it consumed several human lives. In a novel manner, this article defines, computes and illustrates the effectiveness of health administrators’ efforts to extinguish pandemic H1N1 using curvature concept. Data on weekly incidences of H1N1 in year 2009 among the nations in Africa, Asia, Europe, Americas … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 29 Oct 2015 · 6,946 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeterminants of Technical Efficiency of Sugarcane Production among Small Holder Farmers in Lao PDRPoungchompu SupapornThis study was to examine technical efficiency in sugarcane production in Savannakhet, Lao PDR. A stochastic frontier production function was applied with the data collected from 110 sample farmers in 2012. The results reveal that cultivated area (p<0.01), hired labor (p<0.10) and capital (p<0.10) are the major significantly positive factors in the output of sugarcane. Mean of technical efficiency was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 9 · 3 Oct 2015 · 6,678 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Phenomenon of Nonzero Norm of Long-Term Changes in the Total Water Supply in River BasinsViktor V. Kovalenko, Ekaterina V. GaidukovaIn hydrology, the norm of changes in water supply is considered to be equal to zero, under long-term averaging. This assumption allows for calculating and mapping the long-term evaporation rates linked by the water balance with maps of precipitation and river runoff. The phenomenon of nonzero norm of change of the total water supply is provided using the effect of … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 27 May 2015 · 6,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Quantitative Plant Activity Relationship (QPAR) for Diabetics II Using Genetic AlgorithmSimanta Kumar Nayak, Bikram Kesari Ratha, Payodhar Padhi et al.The present study demonstrates a novel computational approach for Indian Traditional Medicine (ITM) for the effective antidiabetic drug. Indian traditional practitioners are using many natural Herbals for the cure of diabetes. Though many diabetes patients are getting temporarily cured still its cause and effects are unknown due to lack of proper scientific investigation. Individual plant bioactivities have been already investigated … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 1 Apr 2015 · 6,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHEALTH BROKEN WOVEN POISSON SPHERES TO MANAGE DEADLY EBOLA INCIDENCESRamalingam ShanmugamThe deadly infectious Ebola incidences scare not only to the residents of western Africa but also to the travelers and medical professionals who treat the patients, as they became victims. Since 27 July until 13 August 2014 alone, about 2,127 Ebola cases occurred in just four Western African countries: Guinea, Liberia, Nigeria and Sierra Leone and more than 50% of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 15 Oct 2014 · 6,688 accessesView PDFCite
