Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConservation and Developing Indigenous Knowledge of Using Water BuffaloesSamanchai Suwanamphai, Songkoon Chantachon, Kosit Paengsoi, Niwat ThongwolProblem statement: The use of water buffalo labor for farming and the tie between rice farmers and water buffaloes at present are greatly decreasing because rice farmers give more importance to modern ploughing machines than water buffaloes. Therefore, water buffalo raising and traditions and rituals involving them which have been useful to humans for a very long time almost all … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 4 Feb 2011 · 8,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Technologies in the Payment System Industries: The SEPA ProjectArmando Calabrese, Massimo Gastaldi, Irene Iacovelli, Nathan Levialdi GhironProblem statement: The Single Euro Payments Area (SEPA) project plans to establish an integrated market for extending European integration to retail payments; it aims to provide incentives for using payment systems instead of cash for all micro payments, in order to improve both efficiency and competition in the Euro area. In this study we described the SEPA and its effects … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 28 Nov 2010 · 7,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOne-Match and All-Match Categories for Keywords Matching in ChatbotAbbas Saliimi Lokman, Jasni Mohamad ZainProblem statement: Artificial intelligence chatbot is a technology that makes interactions between men and machines using natural language possible. From literature of chatbot’s keywords/pattern matching techniques, potential issues for improvement had been discovered. The discovered issues are in the context of keywords arrangement for matching precedence and keywords variety for matching flexibility. Approach: Combining previous techniques/mechanisms with some additional adjustment, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,165 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModel Predictive Approach to Precision Contouring Control for Feed Drive SystemsM.A. El Khalick, N. UchyiamaProblem statement: High precision machining requires high capability of multi-axis feed drive systems to follow specified contour accurately. Although each feed drive axis is controlled independently in many industrial applications such as X-Y tables and Computer Numerical Control (CNC) machines, machining precision is evaluated by error components orthogonal to desired contour curve. Contouring controller design is required for precision machining, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,309 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExtension and Prerequisite: An Algorithm to Enable Relations Between Responses in Chatbot TechnologyAbbas Saliimi Lokman, Jasni Mohamad ZainProblem statement: Artificial intelligence chatbot is a technology that makes interactions between man and machines using natural language possible. From literature, we found out that in general, chatbot are functions like a typical search engine. Although chatbot just produced only one output instead of multiple outputs/results, the basic process flow is the same where each time an input is entered, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 24 Aug 2010 · 16,993 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpecialization of Recursive Predicates from Positive Examples OnlyMoussa DembaProblem statement: Given an overly general (definite) program P and its intended semantics Φ (the programmer’s intentions) where P does not satisfy Φ, find out a new version P’ of P such that P’ satisfies Φ. Approach: We proposed an approach for correcting overly general programs from positive examples by exploiting program synthesis techniques. The synthesized program, P’, is a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Linear Switched Reluctance Machine: Analysis and Experimental VerificationN. C. Lenin, R. ArumugamThe important problems to be solved in Linear Switched Reluctance Machines (LSRMs) are: (1) to design the shape and size of poles in stator and translator cores; (2) to optimize their geometrical configuration. A novel stator geometry for LSRMs that improved the force profile was presented in this study. In the new geometry, pole shoes were affixed on the stator … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Evaluation of Tractors and Tillage Implements Instrumentation SystemS. A. Al-Suhaibani, A. A. Al-Janobi, Y. N. Al-MajhadiProblem statement: Field machines contribute a major portion of the total cost of crop production. Proper selection and matching of farm machinery is essential in order to reduce the cost of crop production. Performance data for tractors and implements are, therefore, essential for farm machinery operators and manufacturers alike. The aim of this study was to develop and evaluate an … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,304 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEco-Efficient Product Design Using Theory of Inventive Problem Solving (TRIZ) PrinciplesIssac Lim Sing Sheng, Teoh Kok-SooProblem statement: In recent years, much attention has been focused on the eco-efficiency of product development. The majority of environmental decisions are only made in the later stages of product development where not much modification can be done. To produce eco-efficient products, environmental decisions ought to be considered in the early stages of product development. With the demand of developing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 11,983 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSugar Beet Performance Affected by Uniformity of N FertigationH. Nouri, M. S.M. Amin, S. J. Razavi et al.In common with the majority of crop species, in sugar beet nutrition nitrogen is an important element due to its role in sucrose utilization and plant growth. Application of precision agriculture, in order to apply the right amount of input at the right time in the right area, is appropriate to decrease chemical use and increase plant growth. Problem statement: … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,931 accessesView PDFCite
