Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelational GIS and Remote Sensing Database System for Al-Salt Area, JordanEyad H.R. Fadda, Maher Kakish, Emad Jalal AkawwiDue to the importance of database systems, integration between two Geomatics sciences, GIS and Remote Sensing has been made in order to support and serve various sectors in Jordan. GIS has been used to create layers that can show decision makers in a simple, easy and flexible manner. Remote Sensing will be used in creating images of how Jordan is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBack Propagation Neural Network Arabic Characters Classification Module Utilizing Microsoft WordA. A. HamzaProblem statement: Arabic character recognition has been one of the last major languages to receive attention. This may be attributed to the inherent complexity of both printed and handwritten Arabic characters. The objectives of this study were to: (i) summarize the main characteristics of Arabic language writing style. (ii) suggest a neural network recognition circuit. Approach: A Neural network with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,834 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTeatment of Work Camp Wastewater Using a Sequencing Batch Reactor Followed by a Sand FilterA. Rezaee, A. Khavanin, M. AnsariWork camps, have to be established quickly, are a transient nature and located in environmentally sensitive areas. Wastewater treatment systems located in the work camps often perform poorly. In response to these deficiencies and the need to provide for reliable, cost effective, high efficiency wastewater treatment, the research team designed a sequence batch reactor (SBR)/ sand filter system that is … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractField Behavior of A High Anchored Reinforced Earth WallFaisal Hj Ali, Bujang B.K. Huat, Lee Chee HaiSince the invention of Reinforced Earth by the French architect Hendri Vidal in 1966, numerous reinforced soil walls have been designed and constructed all over the world. In this study the focus was on a particular type of reinforced wall called Nehemiah wall which differed from the Vidal type in the sense that instead of steel strips, the reinforcing elements … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,261 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Routing Technique against Packet Dropping Attack in Adhoc NetworksN. Bhalaji, Sinchan banerjee, A. ShanmugamProblem Statement: Mobile adhoc networks (MANETs) were extensively used in defense and rescue applications. The dynamic topology of MANETs allows nodes to join and leave the network at any point of time. This dynamic property of MANET has rendered it vulnerable to various security attacks. Many trust establishment methods were proposed to increase the security in MANET. In this paper … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransmission Congestion Management by Determining Optimal Location of FACTS Devices in Deregulated Power SystemsSeyed Abbas Taher, Hadi BesharatIn a deregulated electricity market, it may always not be possible to dispatch all of the contracted power transactions due to congestion of the transmission corridors. The ongoing power system restructuring requires an opening of unused potentials of transmission system due to environmental, right-of-way and cost problems which are major hurdles for power transmission network expansion. Flexible ac transmission systems … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,507 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFabrication of a Capacitance-Based Tactile Sensor with Biomedical ApplicationsAli Tavakoli Golpaygani, Siamak Najarian, M. Mehdi Movahedi, Goldis Darb EmamiehThe design, modeling, and testing of a flexible tactile sensor and its applications are presented. This sensor is made of polymer materials and can detect the 2D surface texture image and contact-force estimation. The sensing mechanism is based on the novel contact deflection effect of a membrane. We measure the amount of membrane deflection with measuring the change of capacitance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractJitter Characterization in Admission Control and Pricing Issues in Integrated Multiservice NetworksFabien Houéto, Samuel PierreThis paper analyses the pricing framework of multiservice networks and proposes an improved pricing scheme based on the effective bandwidth concept for taking into account quality of service parameters. Based on the deficiencies noted in the classical effective bandwidth scheme (intolerance to user uncertainty and no guarantee on jitter), we propose an improved charging function which gives more flexibility to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Generalized Discrete-Time Long Memory Volatility Model for Financial Stock ExchangeChin Wen CheongWe proposed a simple way to combine a few long memory models in financial market volatility modeling using daily, range and high frequency data. This model was able to fit the return, range of daily return or realized volatility under a parametric heavy-tailed distribution. Model was flexible to include additional volatility information as the contemporaneous variables. Empirical results found that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,874 accessesView PDFCite
