Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Bound Test Approach to Cointegration of Tourism DemandFateh Habibi, Khalid Abdul RahimProblem statement: Given the high contribution of tourism industry in the Malaysian economy, Malaysia has a vast view to increase its market share of the international tourist arrivals in the Asia Pacific region. Therefore, this study attempts to investigate the long run and short run demand for tourism from top ten markets (country). Approach: To accomplish this objective the ARDL … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 7,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCognitive and Non-Cognitive Characteristics as Determinants of Success in Professional Courses at Undergraduate StageZebun Nisa KhanProblem statement: Professional education is the principle means of the developing the human resource. Students who do not perform well in professional courses are not in any way better than those who do not have professional knowledge, because their chances of employment and efficient working are bleak. The present study attempted to examine success in different professional courses at undergraduate … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,419 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Removal of Methyl Red from Aqueous Solutions Using Banana Pseudostem FibersMas Rosemal H. Mas Haris, Kathiresan SathasivamProblem statement: The aim of this study was to investigate the removal of methyl red, a mutagenic monoazo dye, from various aqueous solutions using banana pseudostem fibers of the size 212-350 micron. Approach: The parameters studied were the effect of pH, amount of adsorbent, contact time, concentration of adsorbate and agitation speed. Results: Equilibrium data were fitted to the Langmuir … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,304 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMessage Based Random Variable Length Key Encryption AlgorithmHamid Mirvaziri, Kasmiran Jumari Mahamod Ismail, Zurina Mohd HanapiProblem statement: A block ciphers provides confidentiality in cryptography but cryptanalysis of the classical block ciphers demonstrated some old weaknesses grabbing a partial key in any stage of encryption procedure leads to reconstructing the whole key. Exhaustive key search shows that key generation should be indeterminist and random for each round. Matching cipher-text attack shows that larger size of block … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Approach to Improve the State Scalability of Source Specific MulticastS. A. Al-Talib, B. M. Ali, S. KhatunProblem statement: Source Specific Multicast (SSM) is an acceptable solution for current multicast applications; since the driving applications to date are one to many, including Internet TV, distance learning, file distribution and streaming media. Approach: It was useful for billing, address allocation and security. SSM still had serious state scalability problem when there were a large number of simultaneous on-going … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,824 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTwo-Step Robust Diagnostic Method for Identification of Multiple High Leverage PointsArezoo Bagheri, Habshah Midi, A.H.M. Rahmatullah ImonProblem statement: High leverage points are extreme outliers in the X-direction. In regression analysis, the detection of these leverage points becomes important due to their arbitrary large effects on the estimations as well as multicollinearity problems. Mahalanobis Distance (MD) has been used as a diagnostic tool for identification of outliers in multivariate analysis where it finds the distance between normal … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUptake and Recovery of Lead by Agarose Gel PolymersAnurag Pandey, Anupam Shukla, Lalitagauri RayProblem statement: The uptake and recovery of lead ions were investigated by using agarose gel polymers. Approach: The experimental results showed that the agarose gel were effective in removing Pb (II) from solution. Biosorption equilibrium was approached within 4 h. Pseudo second-order was applicable to all the sorption data over the entire time range. Results: The sorption data conformed well … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,632 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Nonlinear Optimal Feedback Law for Satellite Injection Problem Using Neighboring Optimal ControlHamed Hossein Afshari, Alireza Basohbat Novinzadeh, Jafar RoshanianAn optimal trajectory design of a nonlinear satellite injection problem for transfer to a final target orbit by minimizing the time was investigated. Indeed, this design was an exact solution to the nonlinear two-point boundary value problem which determined optimal control history as well as optimal state trajectories in the open-loop form. Furthermore, the obtained optimal guidance strategy was exerted … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,262 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDNA Code Word Design for DNA Computing with Real-Time Polymerase Chain ReactionMuhammad Faiz Mohamed Saaid, Zuwairie Ibrahim, Mohamad Shukri Zainal Abidin et al.Problem statement: A number of DNA computing models to solve mathematical graph problem such as the Hamiltonian Path Problem (HPP), Traveling Salesman Problem (TSP), and the Shortest Path Problem (SPP), have been proposed and demonstrated. Normally, the DNA sequences used for the computation should be critically designed in order to reduce error that could occur during a computation. We have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,506 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Processing for Binary Submatrix MatchingAzzam Sleit, Wesam AlMobaideen, Mohammad Qatawneh, Heba SaadehThe heavy demand for large volumes of digital data has increased the interest in matrix-like representation. Matrices are well organized data structures which are suitable to store uniform data in order to simplify data access and manipulation. For several applications, the need is critical to efficiently search for a specific pattern in matrix structures. A pattern can be represented as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 7,622 accessesView PDFCite
