Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Entire-Array-Polygon (EAP) Method to Assess Urban Development SuitabilityLong Cheng, Yan LiuChina has been experiencing rapid urbanization since the economic reforms and open-up in the late 1970s, with the expansion and restructuring of existing cities taking place at an unprecedented pace, as well as the emergence of many new cities. However, it remains a challenge for urban planners and decision-makers to identify and assess the suitability of areas for future urban … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 2 Jul 2016 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFitted Reproducing Kernel Method for Solving a Class of Third-Order Periodic Boundary Value ProblemsAsad Freihat, Radwan Abu-Gdairi, Hammad Khalil et al.In this article, the reproducing kernel Hilbert space W24 [0, 1] is employed for solving a class of third-order periodic boundary value problem by using fitted reproducing kernel algorithm. The reproducing kernel function is built to get fast accurately and efficiently series solutions with easily computable coefficients throughout evolution the algorithm under constraint periodic conditions within required grid points. The … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 11 May 2016 · 7,647 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Various Compiler Optimization Techniques Related to Mibench Benchmark ApplicationsJeyaraj Andrews, Thangappan SasikalaTuning compiler optimization for a given application of particular computer architecture is not an easy task, because modern computer architecture reaches higher levels of compiler optimization. These modern compilers usually provide a larger number of optimization techniques. By applying all these techniques to a given application degrade the program performance as well as more time consuming. The performance of the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 6 Jun 2013 · 7,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Comfort Assessment-A Study Toward Workers’ Satisfaction in a Low Energy Office BuildingMohd Nafiz Shaharon, Juliana JalaludinProblem statement: The government of Malaysia has raised their concerns towards the issue of workers comfort and workspace quality in a Low Energy Office (LEO) building. New energy efficient building concepts and technologies require a revision of comfort standards, to create a suitable thermal condition in avoiding occupant dissatisfaction, adverse effect on their productivity and overall building performance. Approach: Assessment … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 16 May 2012 · 8,797 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Analysis of the Entropy and Transition Point Approach in Representing Index Terms of Literary TextHayati Abd Rahman, Shahrul Azman NoahProblem statement: Concept hierarchy is a hierarchically organized collection of domain concepts. It is particularly useful in many applications such as information retrieval, document browsing and document classification. Approach: One of the important tasks in construction of concept hierarchy is identification of suitable terms with appropriate size of domain vocabulary. Results: One way of achieving such a size is by … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 30 Jun 2011 · 6,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPAPR Reduction Using BPSO/PTS and STBC in MIMO OFDM SystemKarima El Mouhib, Ahmed Oquour, Younes Jabrane et al.Problem statement: The Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system has been receiving a great attention, as one of solutions for achieving high speed, efficient and high-quality service for the wireless communications. However, the transmitted signal still has high PAPR because of OFDM characteristics. Many methods have been proposed to solve this problem, but the most … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 7,189 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinematics Model of Snake Robot Considering Snake ScaleRaisuddin Khan, M. Watanabe, A. A. ShafieProblem statement: In snake robot research, one of the most efficient forms of locomotion is the lateral undulation. However, lateral undulation, also known as serpentine locomotion, is ill-suited for narrow spaces, as the body of the snake must assume a certain amount of curvature to propel forward. Approach: To overcome the inability to adapt to narrow spaces, a novel type … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 8,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArabic Short Text CompressionIman Omer, Khalaf KhatatnehProblem statement: Text compression permits representing a document by using less space. This is useful not only to save disk space, but more importantly, to save disk transfer and network transmission time. With the continues increase in the number of Arabic short text messages sent by mobile phones, the use of a suitable compression scheme would allow users to use … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,542 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison of Spatio-Temporal Bayesian Models for Reconstruction of Rainfall Fields in a Cloud Seeding ExperimentSujit k. sahu, Giovanna Jona Lasinio, Arianna orasi, Kanti V. MardiaIn response to the drought experienced in Southern Italy a rain seeding project has been setup and developed during the years 1989-1994. The initiative was taken with the purpose of applying existing methods of rain enhancement technology to regions of south Italy including Puglia. The aim of this study is to provide statistical support for the evaluation of the experimental … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,810 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation and Characterization of Hybrid Organic-Inorganic Composite Material: Polymerization of m-Aminobenzoic Acid-Intercalated Into Zn/Al-Layered Double HydroxidesRasheed M.A.Q. JamhourLayered double hydroxides of aluminum and zinc (Zn/Al-LDH’s) were synthesized directly by hydrolysis at room temperature as reported elsewhere. After characterization, the material was reacted with m-aminobenzoat anion (m-NH2C6H4COO-) which undergoes polymerization in the interlayer space; resulting in the formation of a matrix with polymeric organic macromolecule. The resulting material along with the host LDH’s compound of Zn/Al-Cl was characterized … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,586 accessesView PDFCite
