Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasuring the Relevance of Trajectory Matching and Profile Matching in the Context of Carpooling Computational SystemsMichael Cruz, Hendrik Macedo, Adolfo GuimarãesCarpooling consists of sharing individual vehicle space among people with comparable trajectories. Although there are some software initiatives to help carpooling practice, none of them really implements features similarly to searching for people with similar trajectories and profile. In this study, we propose an innovative approach to generate clusters of users that share similar trajectories and profile for carpooling purposes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 3 Feb 2018 · 8,128 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThinging-Based Conceptual Modeling: Case Study of a Tendering SystemSabah Al-Fedaghi, Esraa HaidarIn computer science, models are made explicit to provide formality and a precise understanding of small, contingent “universes” (e.g., an organization), as constructed from stakeholder requirements. Conceptual modeling is a fundamental discipline in this context whose main concerns are identifying, analyzing and describing the critical concepts of a universe of discourse. In the information systems field, one of the reasons … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 4 · 15 Apr 2020 · 7,943 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractRECENT TRENDS AND CHALLENGES OF ENERGY EFFICIENT AND SUSTAINABLE BUILDINGSChiara BedonAccording to several studies (e.g., the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 2014), the US Energy Information Administration (US EIA, 2014), warming of the climate system is unequivocal and mainly derives from greenhouse gas emissions due to human activities. Global Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions from fossil fuels, for example, are estimated to be 29% higher in 2035 than they were … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 11 Sep 2014 · 8,497 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMAPREDUCE CHALLENGES ON PERVASIVE GRIDSL. A. Steffenel, O. Flauzac, A. S. Charao et al.This study presents the advances on designing and implementing scalable techniques to support the development and execution of MapReduce application in pervasive distributed computing infrastructures, in the context of the PER-MARE project. A pervasive framework for MapReduce applications is very useful in practice, especially in those scientific, enterprises and educational centers which have many unused or underused computing resources, which … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 24 Jul 2014 · 9,834 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTRUST BASED AUTOMATIC QUERY FORMULATION SEARCH ON EXPERT AND KNOWLEDGE USERS SYSTEMSK. Sridharan, M. ChitraDue to enhance in complexity of services, there is a necessity for dynamic interaction models. For a service-oriented system to work properly, we need a context-sensitive trust based search. Automatic information transfer is also deficient when unexpected query is given. However, it shows that search engines are vulnerable in answering intellectual queries and shows an unreliable outcome. The user cannot … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 7 · 18 Feb 2014 · 6,319 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Broadcasting in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using Context Aware Adaptive Routing Protocol during Network PartitionsS. V.M.G. Bavithiraja, R. RadhakrishnanProblem statement: In mobile ado network, broadcasting is a common operation for route establishment and for sending control and emergency messages. Reliable Broadcasting in mobile ad hoc networks requires delivery of messages from different sources to all the nodes of the network within bounded time. The nodes are highly mobile and the network is highly dynamic and decentralized. Most of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 28 Feb 2012 · 6,461 accessesView PDFCite

Sangodoyin et al.Problem statement: This study considers the precision of the output series generated from aberrant input series in the context of the distribution of the dynamic estimate and also investigate relative merit of analyzing residuals with outliers for a volatility input dynamic model. Approach: The study developed a methodology for checking volatility at every time point and evaluates the influence of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 1 Oct 2011 · 7,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGas Turbine Ontology for the Industrial ProcessesF. Z. Laallam, M. SellamiThe activity of supervision and control of the industrial processes is a very complex spot and require a great experiment because of the dynamic characteristics of the process. This experiment was acquired with the passing of years. What makes departure of an expert in retirement a great loss of the know-how.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Recipe Based Service Composition in Ubiquitous Smart SpacesJunaid A. Chowdary, Seung-Kyu Park, Suk-Kyo HongWe present a recipe based service composition scheme in smart spaces. We discuss real time problems of highly synchronized and user customizable processes with the help of an example. On-the-fly Quality of Service (QoS) shows up as a major issue in such environment. Furthermore the QoS of a dynamically composed service depends upon the aggregate QoS of its developing components. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 6,760 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUnraveling the Mechanisms of Plant Structural Defenses against Insect PestsAroni Preya Biswas, Roksana Al Nafiu Insha, Md. Khairul Mazed et al.Plants employ a variety of physical, chemical, and genetic strategies to defend against herbivore attacks. These biochemical defense mechanisms are complex and dynamic, encompassing both direct and indirect responses. Defense-related chemicals, whether constitutive or induced by herbivore damage, significantly influence herbivore feeding behavior, growth, and survival. Plant defense systems impact herbivore nutrition, development, and survival, highlighting the importance of chemical … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 25, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2025 · 5,793 accessesView PDFCite
