Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Information Management System Model for the Industrial Incidents in Saudi Arabia: A Conceptual Framework Based on SDLC MethodologySaleh Al-ZahraniThe main focus of this study has been on the development of a conceptual framework for improving the current status of industrial accidents' control. The framework is aimed to use of ICT to improve the information exchange between the Civil Defence and Industrial Sector and to provide an information management system model for the Industrial Incidents Administration System (IIAS). The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 6,924 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simulation-Based Comparison of Multimedia Traffic Prioritization Schemes for High-Performance Input-Queued Packet SwitchesSalman A. AlQahtaniThis study investigates the problem of enabling Quality of Service (QoS) of multimedia traffic at the input port of high-performance input-queued packet switches using a simulation-based evaluation. We focus on the possibility of assuring QoS of multimedia traffic in such switches by implementing traffic prioritization at the input port where each input-queue has been modified to provide a separate buffer … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 7,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating Web Usability from the User's PerspectiveHema Banati, Punam Bedi, P.S. GroverThe presence of multiple websites offering similar services has changed the user outlook. The user now prefers to visit those sites, which are easy to use. Many different methods have been proposed to measure usability of a website. The quantitative methods focus on the performance measurement of the website whereas the qualitative methods estimate the user's opinion of a website. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 8,430 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Parameter Tuning in a Predictive Nonlinear Control Method for a Mobile RobotD. Hazry, M. SugisakaThis study contributes to a new optimal parameter tuning in a predictive nonlinear control method for stable trajectory straight line tracking with a non-holonomic mobile robot. In this method, the focus lies in finding the optimal parameter estimation and to predict the path that the mobile robot will follow for stable trajectory straight line tracking system. The stability control contains … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 7,090 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeveloping a Secure Web Service Architecture for SVG Image DeliverySabah Mohammed, Jinan Fiaidhi, Hamada Ghenniwa, Marshall HahnWeb Services are substantially growing and become vital for businesses and organizations. A major concern, especially for mission-critical applications is Security. This study focuses on developing Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) as Web services. In particular, we develop a service-oriented architecture that securely manages SVG Web services using the intermediary design pattern. In the proposed architecture we introduced two kinds of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2006 · 6,656 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Applicability of the Short-run Phillips curve to NamibiaCyril A. OgbokorIn this research, we invoke linear and logarithmic regression models to empirically test the validity of the Short-run Phillips curve for Namibia by relying on macroeconomic time-series data running from 1991 to 2005.Our results offer some support for the presence of the phenomenon of stagflation in Namibia. This is rather contradictory to the underlying philosophy of the original Phillips curve. … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,214 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Evaluation of a QoS-Aware Mechanism for Polling-Based High-Speed Network InterfacesSalman Al-Qahtani, Tarek Helmy, Khaled SalahThe explosive growth of the high-speed multimedia networks and the widespread use of web-based related applications place new demands on the network servers. The network end systems such as PC-Router, network server and host connected to high speed links must satisfy QoS requirements for multimedia traffics such as delay and loss ratio. Most works on operating systems support for high-speed … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,570 accessesView PDFCite
