Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDecision Support System for Open Vehicle Routing With Transhipments and StopoversNaragain Phumchusri, Yanipa ChinsuwanTransshipments and stopovers are considered to be an effective method to reduce traveling distance where a transportation job can be served by two vehicles: One picks up a load and drops it at a transshipment point and then another vehicle carries that load to the final delivery place. The goal of this study is to develop a decision support system … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 22 Sep 2014 · 7,445 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAN INTELLIGENT VERTICAL HANDOVER DECISION ALGORITHM FOR WIRELESS HETEROGENEOUS NETWORKSV. Anantha Narayanan, A. Rajeswari, V. SureshkumarThe Next Generation Wireless Networks (NGWN) should be compatible with other communication technologies to offer the best connectivity to the mobile terminal which can access any IP based services at any time from any network without the knowledge of its user. It requires an intelligent vertical handover decision making algorithm to migrate between technologies that enable seamless mobility, always best … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 5 · 13 Feb 2014 · 7,284 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClassification Model for Hotspot Occurrences Using Spatial Decision Tree AlgorithmImas Sukaesih Sitanggang, Razali Yaakob, Norwati Mustapha, A. N. AinuddinDeveloping a predictive model for forest fires occurrence is an important activity in a fire prevention program. The model describes characteristics of areas where fires occur based on past fires data. It is essential as an early warning system for preventing forest fires, thus major damages because of fires can be avoided. This study describes the application of data mining … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2013 · 7,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Transboundary Movement of Hazardous Waste: A Contribution to Improve the Present Technical-Judicial ModelGiancarlo Carosso, Cesare Luceri, Pierpaolo OresteThe expression &#34the transboundary movement of hazardous waste&#34 refers, from the technical point of view, to a series of phases that begin with the creation of a hazardous waste and includes its identification according to international, regional and national standards, its delivery to specialized companies and its movement from the exporting country to the importing country; these phases end with … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 13 Jul 2012 · 7,148 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe International Multimodal Transport of Hazardous Goods and WasteGiancarlo Carosso, Cesare Luceri, Pierpaolo OresteThe international multimodal transport of hazardous goods and waste is a sector of remarkable economic importance. This transport activity is connected to several productive sectors and it can have considerable repercussions on the environment and health as well as on the safety of the workers and third parties that study in the same field. A certain part of the transport … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 10 Jul 2012 · 7,118 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffective Authentication Technique for Distributed Denial of Service Attacks in Wireless Local Area NetworksM. Moorthy, S. SathiyabamaProblem statement: In 802.11-based Wireless LAN (WLAN), there is an mproved risk of security attacks. To defeat concealed attacks, there is a necessity to authenticate both access points and wireless stations. Approach: We propose a defensive technique for DDoS attack in WLAN. This authentication technique includes an Authentication Server (AS) in addition to the Wireless Station (WS) and Access Point … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 14 Mar 2012 · 7,075 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPetri Nets and Ladder Logic for Fully-Automating and Programmable Logic Control of Semi-Automatic Machines and SystemsMahmoud A. Barghash, Osama M. Abuzeid, Anas N. Al-Rabadi, Ahmad M. JaradatProblem statement: Automating semi-automatic dynamic machines and complex systems, where some functionalities are already automated but the machine doesn’t run fully in automatic mode, represents another challenge to automating dynamic and manual complex systems. This study deals with a special case of this general problem, where the system’s semi-automatic and automatic functionalities run separately in a sequence with either automatic … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 8,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSynthesis of a Robust Multiobserver for the Estimation of Unknown Inputs Using the Piecewise Quadratic FunctionsElyes Maherzi, Mongi Besbes, Sami Zemmel, Radhi MhiriProblem statement: The estimation of states and the unknown inputs of a nonlinear system described by a multimodel are done by a multiobserver. The stabilization of the multiobserver calls upon uses both quadratic and no quadratic functions of Lyapunov. Although the stabilization using the quadratic approach is interesting from the point of view implementation, the step showed its limits for … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,390 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHow (Un)biased are Airport Security Screening Procedures? A Social-Cognitive ExperimentPoornima Madhavan, Jeremy R. BrownProblem statement: This research examined the role that social-cognitive biases such as gender biases and racial biases play in decision making processes during the screening of carry-on luggage at airports. This research is unique in that no research so far has addressed the social-psychological underpinnings of airport security screening procedures. Approach: Participants (n = 36) performed a computer simulated task … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEconomic Ordering Quantity Model with Lead Time Reduction and Backorder Price Discount for Stochastic DemandMing-Cheng LoThis study considered reorder point on the continuous review inventory model under controllable lead time with mixture of backorder price discounts and partial lost sales. We developed a continuous review inventory model where the lead time, the order quantity, backorder discount and safety factor were considered as the decision variables of a mixture of backorders and lost sales inventory model. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,018 accessesView PDFCite
