Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Method for Human Resource Risk Management in Mobile Workforce Brokering SystemsArash Mousavi, Md. Jan Nordin, Zulaiha Ali Othman, Riza SulaimanProblem statement: Human Resource Risk Management is one of the crucial issues in Mobile Workforce Management Systems (MWM) in general, and in Mobile Workforce Brokering Systems (MWBS) in Particular. It is important because, if not properly managed, it will cause reduction in accuracy of the automated MWBS, which in turn necessitates more human involvement in the task allocation process. Thus, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 11 Oct 2011 · 7,364 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpecifying Processes: Application to Electrical Power DistributionSabah Al-Fedaghi, Lina Al-SalehProblem statement: This study deals with the problem of how to specify processes. Many process specification methodologies have been determined to be incomplete; for example, ISO 9000:2005 defines process as transforming media inputs into outputs. Nevertheless, the author of the Quality Systems Handbook, declares that such a definition is incomplete because processes create results and not necessarily by transforming inputs. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 6 Sep 2011 · 6,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Challenge for Routing Algorithms in Optical Multistage Interconnection NetworksMehrnaz Moudi, Mohamed OthmanProblem statement: A class of dynamic interconnection networks is Multistage Interconnection Networks (MINs) that connects input devices to output devices through a number of switch stages. MINs have assumed importance in recent years; because of their cost-effectiveness. Optical MINs are one type of MINs that have large transmission capacity in the communication networks. There is a major problem in Optical … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 29 Aug 2011 · 7,852 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Fly Negotiation for Urgent Service Level Agreement on Intercloud EnvironmentNawfal A. Mehdi, Ali Mamat, Hamidah Ibrahim, Shamala K. SubramaniamProblem statement: Impatient jobs are the jobs that have strict constraints in starting and completion time and need a fast response and attention in mapping to resources. The negotiation process in cloud computing needs a customer-provider agreement that leads to loss of a significant amount of time for impatient jobs. The huge increasing in cloud service providers makes selecting the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 11 Aug 2011 · 7,948 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoverage Eligibility Rule based Coverage Maintenance Protocol for Energy Conservation in Wireless Sensor NetworksA. Balamurugan, T. PurushothamanProblem statement: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) comprise of small nodes with sensing, computation and wireless communication capabilities. Nodes in a sensor network are severely constrained by energy and computing power. Continuous working of sensor nodes leads to quick depletion of battery power and reduces the overall lifetime. To prolong the lifetime of the sensor nodes, efficient routing protocol that could … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 6 Aug 2011 · 6,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Soil Moisture Sensors under Intelligent Irrigation Systems for Economical Crops in Arid RegionsMohamed Said Abdall El Marazky, Fawzi Said Mohammad, Hussein Mohamed Al-GhobariProblem Statement: In irrigation water management, irrigation water use represents a substantial opportunity for agriculture water savings. Automation of irrigation systems, based on Soil Moisture Sensors Systems (SMSS) has the potential to provide maximum water use efficiency by maintaining soil moisture at optimum levels. Approach: The objective of this research was to evaluate the performance of soil moisture sensors under … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 24 Jun 2011 · 8,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Allocation of CPUs in Multicore Processor for Performance Improvement in Network Security ApplicationsSudhakar Gummadi, Radhakrishnan ShanmugasundaramProblem statement: Multicore and multithreaded CPUs have become the new approach for increase in the performance of the processor based systems. Numerous applications benefit from use of multiple cores. Increasing performance of the system by increasing the number of CPUs of the multicore processor for a given application warrants detailed experimentation.
