Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of the Use of Object Request Broker Middleware for Inter-Component Communications in C6416 Digital Signal Processor Based Software Communications Architecture Radio SystemsWael A. Murtada, Mohamed M. Zahra, Magdi Fikri et al.Problem statement: This study presents an in-depth analysis of the performance of Software Communications Architecture (SCA) component-based waveform applications in terms of inter-component communications. The main limitation with SCA, in the context of embedded systems, is the additional cost introduced by the use of Object Request Broker (ORB) middleware. The ORB middleware handles the interaction between components and objects in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 3 Apr 2012 · 7,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLinking Success Factors to Financial PerformanceSivasamy Mothilal, Subramanian NachiappanProblem statement: Based on a literature survey, an attempt has been made in this study to develop a framework for identifying the success factors. In addition, a list of key success factors is presented. The emphasis is on success factors dealing with breadth of services, internationalization of operations, industry focus, customer focus, 3PL experience, relationship with 3PLs, investment in quality … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,323 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem by Nested Particle Swarm OptimizationKaruppusamy Kanthavel, Paruchuri PrasadProblem statement: Vehicle routing problem determines the optimum route for each vehicle as a sequence of visiting cities. The problem has been defined as NP-hard and exact solution is relatively difficult to achieve for real time large scale models. Though several attempts to solve the problem were made in the literature, new approaches may be tried to solve the problem … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,978 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting Daily Demand in Cash Supply ChainsMichael WagnerProblem statement: Previous studies focused on explaining the long run determinants of currency demand offering limited insight into the short-run determinants and co-variability of daily demand in cash supply chains. Approach: This study contrasted competing techniques of forecasting daily demand in cash supply chains in order to determine the overall performance and the potential of joint forecasting for integrated planning. … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2010 · 7,736 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpatial-Functional Analysis of Kurdish Courtyard Houses in Erbil CityFaris Ali Mustafa, Ahmad Sanusi HassanProblem statement: This study was to analyze the concept of spatial-function in courtyard house layout and its influence to the cultural and social activities. Themes such as integration, segregation, accessibility and zoning of the building space layout are required to be deliberated, in order to achieve further understanding about the Kurdish social and cultural benchmarks (norms) that might have affected … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPredicting the Severity of Breast Masses with Ensemble of Bayesian ClassifiersAlaa M. ElsayadProblem statement: This study evaluated two different Bayesian classifiers; tree augmented Naive Bayes and Markov blanket estimation networks in order to build an ensemble model for prediction the severity of breast masses. The objective of the proposed algorithm was to help physicians in their decisions to perform a breast biopsy on a suspicious lesion seen in a mammogram image or … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 7,299 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMountain Sheep: An Environmental Epidemiological Survey of Variation in Metal Exposure and Physiological Biomarkers Following Mine DevelopmentLawrence K. Duffy, Michael W. Oehler, R. Terry Bowyer, Vernon C. BleichProblem Statement: Anthropogenic activities, such as mining and industrial operations, are a major environmental source of metal exposure for wildlife. Quantitative data regarding biochemical effects of exposure to mineral extraction on mountain sheep, Ovis canadensis, are limited, although their habitats are becoming increasingly affected by expanded resource development. Decisions relating to environmental protection and wildlife conservation should be based on … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2009 · 6,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProviding Reliability in Replicated Middleware ApplicationsR. Saravanan, N. RamarajProblem statement: Data inconsistency is raised in actively replicated environment due to non-determinism in the applications that defeats the purpose of replication as a fault-tolerance strategy. Approach: We proposed an efficient framework RTC which ensured determinism among the replicas in fault tolerance middleware applications. This method exploits the technique of statically analyzing the application source code of client and identifies … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2009 · 8,696 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficiency Comparison of Operational and Profitability: A Case of Hong Kong Commercial BanksCheng-Ru Wu, Hui-Yin Tsai, Ya-Mei WangProblem Statement: Traditional DEA models deal with measurements of relative efficiency of DMUs regarding multiple-inputs vs. multiple-outputs. One of the drawbacks of these models is the neglect of intermediate products or linking activities. The objectives of this study were: (i) This research was shown how to use DEA by two stages, with outputs from the first stage becoming inputs in … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,482 accessesView PDFCite
