Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Constraint-Handling Technique for Genetic Algorithms using a Violation FactorAdam Chehouri, Rafic Younes, Jean Perron, Adrian IlincaOver the years, several meta-heuristic algorithms were proposed and are now emerging as common methods for constrained optimization problems. Among them, genetic algorithms (GA’s) shine as popular evolutionary algorithms (EA’s) in engineering optimization. Most engineering design problems are difficult to resolve with conventional optimization algorithms because they are highly nonlinear and contain constraints. In order to handle these constraints, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 7 · 31 Aug 2016 · 8,751 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleStatic Hand Gestures: Fingertips Detection Based on Segmented ImagesAhmad Yahya Dawod, Md Jan Nordin, Junaidi AbdullahFingertips detection is important for recognition of static gesture in sign language. This paper presents a new method that is based on YCbCr colour space and skeletonization for fingertips detection towards gesture segmentation and recognition. The method begins with the conversion of an image in RGB colour space into YCbCr colour space. Then, the chrominance Cb and Cr are extracted … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 12 · 4 Feb 2016 · 7,032 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePerformance Evaluation of Handover in WiMax with TCP and UDP as Underlying ProtocolKaram Dhafer Mayoof, Rosilah Hassan, Amjed Sid Ahmed, Ahmed MarwanThe rejection of an ongoing connection/session is serious problem and it degrades the QoS and efficiency of the network rather than rejecting a request for new connection. The impact on performance of handovers is a serious problem in cellular systems that must be addressed. During handover there may be delay in packets and connections may drop. Real time applications i.e., … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 12 Dec 2015 · 7,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBacteriological Quality in Some Hand-Dug well Water as Source of Drinking Water in Ban Village, Plateau State, NigeriaDawang Denaan Noel, Aricha Anthony Aduma, John Deh HappinessAccess to potable water and healthy environment has been a concern worldwide. Developing nation like Nigeria has been facing critical challenge in accessing safe drinking water. Therefore, the people still depend on unsafe water sources such as rivers, streams and hand dug wells. This study examined the bacteriological quality of 16 drinking dug well water in four selected communities (Bantin, … …Current Research in Microbiology, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 5 Nov 2015 · 7,907 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleRemoAct: Portable Projected Interface with Hand Gesture InteractionHussam Saad Adeen, Ayman Atia, Ahmad Amin et al.RemoAct is a wearable depth sensing and projection system that enables interaction on many surfaces. It makes interaction with the environment more intuitive through sharing and sending data with surrounding devices by applying certain gestures. This system offers a mobile and intuitive solution for interacting using a projected surface on habitual flat surfaces. Every user has their public and private … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 4 Aug 2015 · 8,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMobility and Handover Technique in Heterogeneous Wireless NetworksRadhwan Abdullah, Zuriati Zukarnain, Farzaneh Masoumiyan, Azizol AbdullahThe management techniques for Mobile IPv6 between different wireless technologies are very important to complete the handover process with the least possible delay. In the fast handover, when a mobile node moves to another network, it needs to do handover operations. These operations have a severe impact on the handover latency. This paper proposes an Enhanced Advanced Duplicate Address Detection … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2015 · 6,752 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOBSERVED HAND WASHING PRACTICES AMONG HEALTH WORKERS IN TWO CRITICAL PAEDIATRICS WARDS OF A SPECIALIST HOSPITALBalafama Abinye Alex-Hart, Peace Ibo OparaHand washing in between patient care by health workers is the single most important measure against occurrence and spread of nosocomial infections within health facilities. This study was done to observe health workers hand washing practices in two critical Paediatric wards of a specialist hospital. Trained observers observed and recorded health workers’ hand washing compliance while carrying out their routine … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 11 Jul 2014 · 7,411 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBEST PRACTICES FOR HAND HYGIENE COMPLIANCE BY HEALTH CARE PROVIDERS IN THE INPATIENT SETTINGCynthia C. AkpakaThis study discusses the strategies that have proven successful in improving adherence to hand hygiene policies among health care providers working in acute care, inpatient settings. Review of literature suggests that while some efforts to improve hand hygiene compliance have focused on environmental engineering other efforts have focused mostly on broad-based educational and motivational initiatives, such as online educational programs … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 14 May 2014 · 7,322 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSECRET HANDSHAKE ISSUE AND VALIDATE AUTHORITY BASED AUTHENTICATION SYSTEM FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKKamalanaban Ethala, R. Seshadri, N. G. Renganathan, M. S. SaravananWireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are major research area in the past few decades. WSN is formed by collection of sensor nodes. Power source life and memory size limit the hardware sources and these will decide the lifesapn of sensor nodes in WSN. Therefore, many resources based research issues are evolved in WSN. This study focused security issue and proposed authentication … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 6,429 accessesView PDFCite
