Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPredictors of Technology Deployment Among Malaysian TeachersNaresh Kumar, Raduan Che Rose, Jeffrey Lawrence D’SilvaTechnologies advocate researchers had identified a number of factors that affect individual teachers' usage of computers. Nevertheless mix results were reported in literature. Hence, this study used personal characteristics and the technology acceptance constructs to understand the Actual Usage of Computer (AUC) among Malaysian teachers. The final model derived from this study was able to explain and predict approximately 54.5% … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Multicollinearity on Power Rates of the Ordinary Least Squares EstimatorsO.O. Alabi, Kayode Ayinde, T.O. OlatayoInferences on the parameter estimates of Ordinary Least Square (OLS) estimator in regression model when regressors exhibit multicollinearity is a problem in that large standard errors of the regression coefficients which cause low t-statistic value often result into the acceptance of the null hypothesis. This paper, therefore, makes efforts to investigate the effect of multicollinearity on the power rates of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Criteria for Slab Compaction of Laboratory Roller Compactor (Turamesin)R. Muniandy, F.M. Jakarni, S. Hassim, A.R. MahmudLaboratory experiments should simulate to a high degree the conditions in the field, especially in term of compaction procedures. Presently available laboratory compaction methods do not seem to be able to produce specimens that can truly represent the mixtures as it exists in the field, especially for Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) mixtures. SMA is highly dependent on the method of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEmploying New Mathematical Models and Equations to Evaluate Risk-Benefit Criteria of Clinical TherapeuticsDa Yong Lu, Ting Ren Lu, Jian DingCurrent preclinical and clinical evaluation of a drugs or therapy is at first to find out a maximum toxicity tolerance, which is overall fixed. The potential therapeutic dosage will be ranged just lower or within the periphery of these maximum tolerant data. A hidden acceptance among general researchers lies as the toxicity concentration of a drug is always the same … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,825 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeaker Identification: A Hybrid Approach Using Neural Networks and Wavelet TransformMuzhir Shaban Al-Ani, Thabit Sultan Mohammed, Karim M. AljeboryIn speaker identification systems, a database is constructed from the speech samples of known speakers. The approach implemented in this paper is hybrid, where the wavelet transform and neural networks are used together to form a system with improved performance. Features are extracted by applying a discrete wavelet transform (DWT), while a neural network (NN) is used for formulating the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,072 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntelligent Voice-Based Door Access Control System Using Adaptive-Network-based Fuzzy Inference Systems (ANFIS) for Building SecurityWahyudi, Winda Astuti, Syazilawati MohamedSecure buildings are currently protected from unauthorized access by a variety of devices. Even though there are many kinds of devices to guarantee the system safety such as PIN pads, keys both conventional and electronic, identity cards, cryptographic and dual control procedures, the people voice can also be used. The ability to verify the identity of a speaker by analyzing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 8,547 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractYoung Generation Attitudes and Awareness Towards the Implementation of Smart Card in Bahrain: An Exploratory StudyAdel I. Al-Alawi, Mohammed A. Al-AmerSmartCards are one of the latest additions to the continuing list of advancements and innovations in the world of information and communication technology. A SmartCard resembles in size and shape to a normal credit card or bank ATM card, with a microprocessor chip implanted into the plastic card. These cards are used not just as identity cards, like the earliest … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 7,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWiFi Technology: Future Market Challenges and OpportunitiesAdel I. Al-AlawiComputer networks have played a major role in expanding the operational boundaries in organizations today. Until now traditional methods of networking, which involves computers, wired directly to a hub or switch are the norm. Recent advances in networking technology have made it possible for devices to communicate using various light and wave emitting technologies. WiFi is a perfect example of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,799 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Performance of a Solar Heat Storage Accumulator Used For Greenhouses ConditioningMejdi Hazami, Sami Kooli, Meriam Lazaar et al.The use of solar energy for greenhouse heating has gained an increasing acceptance during the last years. Active solar systems applied to greenhouses can supply a significant part of the heating requirements. However, there are some problems related to the cost of the heat collection unit and the heat storage methods. In this context several techniques were born. The most … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKey Exchange Protocol in Elliptic Curve Cryptography with No Public PointK. Kaabneh, H. Al-BdourIn recent years some cryptographic algorithms have gained popularity due to properties that make them suitable for use in constrained environment like mobile information appliances, where computing resources and power availability are limited. One of these cryptosystems is Elliptic curve which requires less computational power, memory and communication bandwidth compared to other cryptosystem. This makes the elliptic curve cryptography to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2005 · 7,067 accessesView PDFCite
