Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStochastic Behavior of a Two-Unit Warm Standby System with Two Types of Repairmen and Patience TimeG. S. Mokaddis, M. Salah EL-Sherbeny, Y. Mahmoud AyidProblem statement: In this study we investigated the probabilistic analysis of a two-unit warm standby system with constant failure rate and two types of repairmen and patience time. The first repairman, usually called regular repairman, always remained with the repair facility, with the known fact that he might not be able to do some complex repairs within some tolerable (patience) … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeoradar Measurements for the Snow Cover DensityA. GodioGround Probing Radar (GPR) devices is adopted for the analysis of thickness and the mechanical properties (density) of the snow cover in some test site in Alps, in Northern Italy. The performances of standard radar systems for the snow cover characterisation are analysed, the main aim is to assess the reliability of the method to estimate the snow density, the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,594 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMajor Challenges of Iranian Rural Communities for Achieving Sustainable DevelopmentKhalil Kalantari, Hossein Shabanali Fami, Ali Asadi et al.Problem statement: Rural population in Iran live in an unstable environment and geographically, villages are extremely diverse and more than 65% of them have population less than 250 persons, which do not provide sufficient population threshold for most of services and sustainable economic and job creation activities. Only 7.5% of rural areas have population more than 1000 persons. Therefore, the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,931 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Creative, Educational Drama Activities on Developing Oral Skills in Primary School ChildrenAbdulhak Halim Ula&#351A research study was carried out to determine whether native language teaching courses that utilize creative drama activities are more efficient in developing oral communication skills in primary school students than the traditionally applied native language teaching courses. In the present research, the elements of oral communication skills of primary school students were investigated in terms of pronunciation and interpretation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 9,353 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIrregular Class of Multistage Interconnection Network in Parallel ProcessingSandeep Sharma, K. S. Kahlon, P. K. Bansal, Kawaljeet SinghA major problem in designing a large-scale parallel and distributed system was the construction of an Interconnection Network (IN) to provide inter-processor communication. One of the biggest issues in the development of such a system was the development of an effective architecture and algorithms that have high reliability, give good performance (even in the presence of faults), low cost, low … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,062 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Early Score Validation of the Malaysian Educator’s Information Technology Attitude Scale (MEITAS)Wong Su LuanThe purpose of this study was to develop and provide initial validation evidence for an instrument to measure educators’ attitudes toward IT. Data were collected from 817 participants comprising both pre and in-service teachers in four phases. Two separate factor analyses were conducted for the pre-service teacher data and in-service teacher data.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of the Chi-square Test to Determine Significance of Cumulative Antibiogram DataRocco J. Perla, James CarifioAn important function of a hospital’s Infectious Disease and Pharmacy programs is to review and compare the most recent antibiogram with that of the previous year to determine if significant changes in antibiotic susceptibility results are noted and to communicate this information and its consequences to the medical staff. However, there are currently no formal analytical (decision-making) models in use … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHarmonics Study and Comparison of Z-source Inverter with Traditional InvertersB. Justus Rabi, R. ArumugamThis paper presents an Impedance Source Inverter for A.C electrical drives. The impedance source inverter employs a unique impedance network cable with inverter main circuit and rectifier. By controlling the shoot-through duty cycle, the z-source inverter system using MOSFETS provide ride-through capability during voltage sags, reduces line harmonics, improves power factor and high reliability, and extends output voltage range. Analysis, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 7,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEarly Diagnosis of Parkinson's Disease Through Voice Analysis and Machine LearningAmrita Naik, Mohd Sahil Khan, Akhilesh Manoj Saraf et al.Parkinson’s Disease (PD) is a progressive neurological disorder, and its prevalence has increased considerably in recent years. Early and accurate diagnosis plays a crucial role in effective treatment, but identifying the disease in its early stages remains challenging, especially for non-specialist clinicians. This study presents a predictive analytics framework for detecting Parkinson's disease using voice-based features. To improve the diversity … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 11 · 9 Oct 2026 · 652 accessesView PDFCite
