Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeologic Mapping of United Arab Emirates using Multispectral Remotely Sensed DataMaged Marghany, Shattri Mansor, Mazlan HashimProblem statement: Geological studies are requiring standard methods and procedures to acquire precisely information. However, traditional methods might be difficult to use due to highly earth complex topography. Regarding the previous prospective, the advantage of satellite remote sensing in its application to geology is the wide coverage over the area of interest, where much accurate and useful information such as … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSea Level Threat in TuvaluThan Aung, Awnesh Singh, Uma PrasadProblem statement: Recently the impacts of climate change, in particular, sea level rise, had been a major concern for many Pacific island countries. In early 2000, there were a series of media coverage over sea level rise issues using Tuvalu as an example. The daily life of Tuvalu revolves around the ocean and the immediate threat on the islands people, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 13,954 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Indoor Positioning System (IPS) using Grid ModelWutjanun Muttitanon, Nitin Kumar Tripathi, Marc SourisTo date many positioning systems are available to determine or track a user's location; three main categories include Global Positioning System (GPS), wide area location system and indoor positioning system. GPS has its limitation (poor signals) in indoor or urban uses, while wide-area location systems are cellular networks dependent. For indoor positioning system many approaches like infrared sensing, radio frequency, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,175 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFormation of Optimal Messages Path Delivery Within a Virtual Channel TechnologyH. Al-Bdour, K. KaabnehThis research study deals with the process of reduction and optimization of data transmission delays in mobile Internet networks during mobile subscriber transmission (SsS) to various coverage areas. The methods for information transmission in IP-networks and networks based on virtual channel technology are investigated. Throughout this research, special attention is given to the analysis of existing methods for channel reconfiguration … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Investigation of the Relationship among Analyst Following, Managerial Ownership and Firm Valuation: From the Perspective of Agency TheoryI. J. ChenIn this study, the relationship among analyst following, managerial ownership and firm valuation is investigated from the perspective of agency theory by using a nonlinear simultaneous equation model. The data from the Taiwan stock market verify the proposed hypotheses with a nonlinear three-stage least-square procedure. The empirical results show that managerial ownership (serving an internal monitoring function) and number of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Approach to the Ruin Problem with Compounding AssetsMercy Amaebi OrukariThis study considered the Ruin problem with an income process with stationary independent increments. The characterization is obtained which is general for the probability of $r(y)$, that the asset of a firm will never be zero whenever the initial asset level of the firm is $y$. The aim of this study is also to determine $r(y) = P \{ T … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 18, Issue 1 · 8 Oct 2022 · 5,627 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Bathymetry Database for Coastal AreasWorachat Wannawong, Prungchan Wongwises, Usa W. HumphriesProblem statement: A database containing gridded bathymetries with different coverages and resolutions has been established. Approach: The interpolation techniques of the gridded bathymetries have been developed to define the spherical, rectangular and curvilinear coordinate grid systems. Results: Subsequently, merging of the bathymetry results has also been developed to define the optimal bathymetry. Furthermore, the bathymetries were established in order to … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,223 accessesView PDFCite
