Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Integration of Network-Based Models for Spill Response and Homeland SecurityDavid E. Amstutz, Rakesh Bahadur, Jonathan M. Pickus et al.The integration of three hydraulic GIS (Geographic Information System) applications is presented which represent the water infrastructures of cities and urban areas and US streams and rivers. The water infrastructures include drinking water distribution systems, wastewater collection systems and source water. The National Research Council[1] states that problems dealing with the collective behavior of networks such as river systems, water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,733 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTraffic Signal Using Smart Agent SystemCheonshik Kim, You-Sik HongIn this research, we propose an electro-sensitive traffic light using the smart agent algorithm to reduce traffic congestion and traffic accidents. The multi-agent system approach can provide a new and preferable solution. The proposed method adaptively controls the cycle of traffic signals even though the traffic volume varies. Consequently, we reduce the car waiting time and start-up delay time using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,958 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractManaging Air in Olympic CitiesQing Wen Tian, Peter BrimblecombeThe 21st century Olympic Agenda aims to align itself with the concept of sustainable development and has driven improved environmental quality in host cities, such as the Green Games in Sydney 2000 and the planned Beijing 2008 Games and in London 2012 as the Low Carbon Games. Air quality has long been a concern of Olympic mega-cities, although the air … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2008 · 7,693 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDirect Model Reference Adaptive Controller Based-On Neural-Fuzzy Techniques for Nonlinear Dynamical SystemsHafizah Husain, Marzuki Khalid, Rubiyah YusofThis paper presents a direct neural-fuzzy-based Model Reference Adaptive Controller (MRAC) for nonlinear dynamical systems with unknown parameters. The two-phase learning is implemented to perform structure identification and parameter estimation for the controller. In the first phase, similarity index-based fuzzy c-means clustering technique extracts the fuzzy rules in the premise part for the neural-fuzzy controller. This technique enables the recruitment … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,946 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Survey of Content-Based Video RetrievalP. Geetha, Vasumathi NarayananThis study surveys current trends/methods in video retrieval. The major themes covered by the study include shot segmentation, key frame extraction, feature extraction, clustering, indexing and video retrieval-by similarity, probabilistic, transformational, refinement and relevance feedback. This work has done in an aim to assist the upcoming researchers in the field of video retrieval, to know about the techniques and methods … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 8,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnvironmental Factors and Limbic Vulnerability in Childhood AutismRichard LatheThe rise in prevalence of autism spectrum disorders (ASD) is suggestive of a new etiology. Diagnostic substitution alone is unlikely to account for the increase, while genetic association with detoxification gene alleles points to an environmental contribution. Subtle structural anomalies in the ASD brain are widespread but limbic damage seems important for the development of behaviors diagnostic of ASD. The … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,680 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on Non-Industrial Countries-Digital Divide ModelMahmoud Z. IskandaraniThe influence of information and communication technology on the collective activities and interests of a broad range of people was discussed and analyzed. The important consequence of ICT called digital divide was mathematically modeled and the results analyzed. The closed loop feedback model proved the need for a society to be educationally, culturally, economically and politically ready to integrate and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 6,893 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptive Resonance Theory 1 (ART1) Neural Network Based Horizontal and Vertical Classification of 0-9 Digits RecognitionMbaitiga ZacharieThis study describes the Adaptive Resonance Theory 1 (ART1), an efficient algorithm that emulates the self-organizing pattern recognition and hypothesis testing properties of the ART neural network architecture for horizontal and vertical classification of 0-9 digits recognition. In our approach the ART1 model can self-organize in real time producing stable and clear recognition while getting input patterns beyond those originally … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,353 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeciding Whether There is Statistical Independence or Not?Ramzi NasserThe study investigated how students assess statistical independence (SI). A sample of 98 students was available to the researcher. One group was probed on their understanding of statistical independence, a second group was given a proficiency test and a third group was presented a proof for statistical Independence. Interview data from the first two groups exposed student misconception on their … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,822 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Hierarchical Diff-EDF Schedulability over Heterogeneous Real-Time Packet NetworksMoutaz Saleh, Zulaiha Ali OthmanPacket networks are currently enabling the integration of traffic with a wide range of characteristics that extend from video traffic with stringent QoS requirements to the best-effort traffic requiring no guarantees. QoS guarantees can be provided in conventional packet networks by the use of proper packet scheduling algorithms. As a computer revolution, many scheduling algorithms have been proposed to provide … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,534 accessesView PDFCite
