Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFailure Diagnosis on Discrete Event SystemsSihem Kechida, Nasr Eddine DebbacheThe modern technology advances to a point where it is possible and extensively desirable to improve reliability and the technical process safety. This is achieved by computer implanted FDI procedures (Fault Detection and Isolation). However, the malfunction of actuators, sensors and of the process components, as well as erroneous actions of human operators can have some disastrous consequences in high … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 6,889 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFault-tolerant Distributed Systems with Diagnostics AlgorithmsOleg Viktorov, Afif MghawishTo provide consistent actions in distributed systems with faulty nodes the Byzantine agreement protocol (algorithm) is widely used. In case of using message exchange scheme without authentication the Byzantine agreement algorithm leads to agreement if the number of nodes doesn’t exceed 1/3 of the total number. The proposed algorithms based on diagnostics procedures are used to reach an agreement in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 19 Oct 2005 · 4,844 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCaller Line Identity Delivery: A Computerized Call Alert ApplicationZoubir HamiciThe subject of this study was to analyze the Frequency Shift Keying caller ID FSK transmission protocol used by Jordan Telecom. and implement a call alert computer application. An FSK decoder is presented and a decoding algorithm based on asynchronous data communication is discussed. Data is captured through the RS232 serial port and a 32-bit software is presented as a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 19 Oct 2005 · 4,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality Metric Development Framework (qMDF)K. Mustafa, R. A. KhanSeveral object-oriented metrics have been developed and used in conjunction with the quality models to predict the overall quality of software. However, it may not be enough to propose metrics. The fundamental question may be of their validity, utility and reliability. It may be much significant to be sure that these metrics are really useful and for that their construct … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,383 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simple Approach for Building Cooling Load EstimationF. A. Ansari, A. S. Mokhtar, K. A. Abbas, N. M. AdamThe present work is to demonstrate how some very simple problems are made mathematically complex and seemingly tedious due to academic or business compulsions. There are some problems in which mathematical model are developed after making many simplifying assumptions. But, when it comes to solving these models, very sophisticated and complex schemes are applied. For such problems, dual policy does … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,538 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationships between Heavy Metal Concentrations in the American Oyster (Crassostrea virginica) and Metal Levels in the Water Column and Sediment in Apalachicola Bay, FloridaDennis A. Apeti, Larry Robinson, Elijah JohnsonThis study aims to assess baseline concentrations of heavy metals (Cd, Cr, Cu, Pb and Zn) in the oyster soft tissue as they relate to concentrations in the water column (particulate phase) and sediment in Apalachicola Bay. In order to conduct these assessments, a total of 360 samples, collected in two seasons (winter and summer) and were analyzed using atomic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPower Prediction Model for Milling 618 Stainless Steel Using Response Surface MethodologyK. Kadirgama, K. A. Abou-El-HosseinThis study discussed the development of the first and second order power prediction model for milling 618 stainless steel with coated carbides cutting tool. The first and second order model has been developed by using response surface methodology with 4 factors. The surface methodology has been analysis by using statistical software Minitab. From the model the equation that relates the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2005 · 7,088 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Data Base Scheme Arabic Handwriting Recognition by Hopfield Neural Networks AlgorithmHasan M. Al Shalabi, Mowafak F. Hasan, Abbas M. AliA new scheme for Arabic handwriting recognition by means of mat lab software is proposed. It can be seen as construction of neural networks that associate the hand writing Arabic text with the stored Arabic text in a specific data base are nearly equivalent. This result indicates that the new scheme have the potential to be robust in the presence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of RNA-DNA Duplex Base Triplets to Antisense DrugsJie Yang, Yao Leng, Ju BaoSixty-four sets of three-dimensional models of RNA-DNA duplex base triplets were constructed based on codons by homology modeling method using software InsightII on Indigo workstation, which should be helpful for the study of RNA-DNA annealing, the basis of nucleic acids interactions and some peculiar motifs for design antisense oligonucleotides. Our research result reveal that the energies (such as E, Ec, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,534 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Geo-Information Technology in the Study of Soil and Nutrients Loss by Water Erosion for three Different Land CoverMushtak T. Jabbar, C. A.I. Chong-Fa, Wang Tian-Wei, Shi Zhi-HuaThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and the soil statistical analysis with RS and GIS techniques to quantify soil and nutrient loss risk. The Letianxi watershed, located in the southwest part of Hubei Province of China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,792 accessesView PDFCite
