Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVisualization of Available Power Transfer Capability in a Transmission System Using Morphological TechniquesS. U. Prabha, B. S. Dayasagar, C. VenkataseshaiahA morphological decimation technique has been proposed and implemented to analyze the available power transfer capability in a transmission power network. The method creates a graphical image of the power network with thickness of the lines proportional to their respective rated megavolt ampere (MVA) capacity. Based on ac load flow solution, another image was created to represent the power flow … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCalibration and Simultaneous Monitoring of Soil Water Content and Salinity with Capacitance and Four-electrode ProbesTadaomi Saito, Haruyuki Fujimaki, Mitsuhiro InoueNon-destructive monitoring of soil water content (W) and the electrical conductivity of the soil solution (ECw) has been desired for environmental evaluation and sustainable agriculture. Dielectric probes and four-electrode probes are widely used for the non-destructive determination of W and the soil bulk electrical conductivity (ECb), respectively. Since the output of dielectric probes is affected by soil salinity, the calibration … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,918 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRe-quantization Codebook Using FingerprintZ. F. Muhsen, M. A. Dababna, A. A. NsourRe-quantization is a key technology for reducing the bit rate of compressed data. The reduction of the bit rate and in certain cases may result in signal quality degradation. Techniques need to be deployed to enhance the signal quality based on optimization techniques. The proposed scheme constructed an optimal re-quantization codebook in an iterative manner for a given original quantization … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,905 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Handwritten Tamil Character Recognition System using Octal GraphR. J. Kannan, R. PrabhakarProblem Statement: Handwriting recognition has attracted voluminous research in recent times. The segmentation and recognition of the characters from handwritten scripts incorporates considerable overhead. Almost all the existing handwritten character recognition techniques use neural network approach, which requires lot of preprocessing and hence accomplishing these problems using neural network is a tedious task. Approach: In this study we propose a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,405 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClosed Die Forging Geometrical Parameters Optimization for Al-MMCM. Jolgaf, S.B. Sulaiman, M.K.A Ariffin, A.A. FaiezaDemand for lighter and stiffer products has been increasing in the last few years especially in automobile manufacturing. The closed die forging process of Metal Matrix Material (MMC) is presented as possible solution, since it produces parts with good mechanical properties and lighter weight. A computational modeling of closed die forging process using finite element method and optimization techniques makes … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Exact Algorithm for the Unbounded Knapsack Problem with Minimizing Maximum Processing TimeChanin Srisuwannapa, Peerayuth CharnsethikulWe address a variant of the unbounded knapsack problem (UKP) into which the processing time of each item is also put and considered, referred as MMPTUKP. The MMPTUKP is a decision problem of allocating amount of n items, such that the maximum processing time of the selected items is minimized and the total profit is gained as at least as … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFlow of Dividends under a Constant Force of InterestJuma Kasozi, Jostein PaulsenThis study addresses the issue of maximization of dividends of an insurer whose portfolio is exposed to insurance risk. The insurance risk arises from the classical surplus process commonly known as the Cramér-Lundberg model in the insurance literature. To enhance his financial base, the insurer invests in a risk free asset whose price dynamics are governed by a constant force … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,386 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Quality of Homeland Security and Health Care Systems: The Texas Rangers InitiativeEldo E. Frezza, Maurizio Chiriva-InternatiHealthcare facilities are an essential component of an emergency response system in case of nuclear, biological or chemical attack, but at the present time, are poorly prepared for an incident. Key elements of the healthcare facility response plan include prompt recognition of the incident, staff and facility protection, patient decontamination and triage, medical therapy, and coordination with external emergency response … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,216 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Secure Database Encryption SchemeZongkai Yang, Samba Sesay, Jingwen Chen, Du XuThe need to protect database, would be an every growing one especially so in this age of e-commerce. Many conventional database security systems are bugged with holes that can be used by attackers to penetrate the database. No matter what degree of security is put in place, sensitive data in database are still vulnerable to attack. To avoid the risk … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2004 · 7,348 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing the Cuckoo Search for Generating New Particles in Particle Swarm Optimization AlgorithmFariaa Abdalmajeed Hameed, Harith Raad Hasan, Ahmed Abdullah Ahmed, Gulala Ali Hama AminThis study is focused on as Cuckoo Search (CS), one of the current meta-heuristic optimization algorithm. The CS algorithm is useful in generating and searching for the most optimum particles of important meta-heuristic optimization algorithm, known as the Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), to enhance its performance. This optimization is confirmed through a benchmark online optimization and actual problems. The PSO … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2020 · 7,441 accessesView PDFCite
