Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTesting Randomness: Poker Test with Hands of Three NumbersWael Mohamed Fawaz Abdel-Rehim, Ismail Amr Ismail, Ehab MorsyProblem statement: The problem of testing randomness is motivated by the need to evaluate of the quality of different random number generators used by many practical applications including computer simulations, cryptography and communications industry. In particular, the quality of the randomness of the generated numbers affects the quality of such applications. In this study we focus on one of the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 30 Jul 2012 · 9,752 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPower Outage, Business Continuity and Businesses' Choices of Power Outage Mitigation MeasuresAli Asgary, Yeganeh Mousavi-JahromiProblem statement: Power outage has been mentioned as one of the most experienced and perceived risks by various types of businesses and organizations. Thus, reducing the impacts of power outage has become a key agenda in business continuity planning. Back-up or stand-by generators are among the most well known measures taken by power consumers to tackle the power outage problem. … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 8 Apr 2011 · 7,678 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Odor Key Technique for Security Applications Using Electronic Nose SystemMahmoud Z. IskandaraniProblem statement: A novel approach to security applications that makes use of odors as password generators is developed and tested. The developed system detects and converts odor signals that are randomly selected to binary signals and then intelligently compares them with previously stored values. Approach: The interface device in question then either opens its interface if comparison is successful or … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,186 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Analysis of Virtual Bus Transport Using Synchronous Digital Hierarchy/Synchronous Optical NetworkingR. Hassan, J. Irvine, I. GloverThis study presented a new data link layer design for the virtual bus architecture. The virtual bus is a hierarchical access network offered a broadcast capability for data and signaling. The proposed of the study is to support Quality of Service (QoS) in network. During study, the most promising technology capable of delivering full service access at high data rates … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,962 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Emissions from Power Stations on the Ambient Air Quality of Selected Urban Areas in KuwaitBader N. Al-Azmi, V. Nassehi, A.R. KhanIn Kuwait, two main power stations, one comprising of seven-300MW steam generators at Doha and other with eight-300MW steam generators at Subyia cover the major power requirement of Kuwait city. These stations used different types of fuel oil as the prime source of energy that has different sulpher contents (S%). Comprehensive emission inventories for year the 2001 were used to … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,014 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Multi-Objective HPSO Algorithm Approach for Optimally Location of UPFC in Deregulated Power SystemsSeyed Abbas Taher, Seyed Mohammad Hadi TabeiThis paper presents the application of hybrid particle swarm optimization technique to find optimal location of unified power flow controller to achieve optimal power flow. Objective function in the OPF, that is to be minimized, are the overall cost functions, which include the total active and reactive production cost function of the generators and installation cost of UPFCs. The OPF … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,975 accessesView PDFCite
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 · 6,888 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Cost Long Distance Detector for Explosives and Chemical Analysis by IEC ApplicationGeorge H. Miley, Heinrich Hora, Frederick Osman et al.A radiation source for detecting specific chemicals at several meter distances even behind walls, car doors or other barriers is the application of Million electron Volts (MeV) neutrons from nuclear fusion reactions at such low intensities to avoid any danger for human bodies. The chemical analysis consists in the neutron activation of nuclei emitting then gamma radiation of lines very … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2005 · 6,513 accessesView PDFCite
