Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVerifying Complex Interaction between Hardware ProcessesKiran Ramineni, Shireesh Verma, Ian G. HarrisProblem statement: Verification of correct functionality of semiconductor devices has been a challenging problem. Given the device fabrication cost, it is critical to verify the expected functionality using simulations of executable device models before a device manufactured. However, typical industrial scale devices today involve large number of interactions between their components. Complexity of verifying all interactions becomes almost intractable even … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 6,953 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArchitecture of an Ultra-Low-Power Fully Autonomous Universal Power Conditioner of Energy Harvester for Wireless Sensor Networks: A ReviewYeo Kim Heng, Md. Shabiul Islam, Susthitha Menon et al.A fully autonomous Universal Power Conditioner (UPC) that can accept energy from any micro-energy harvester (e.g., photovoltaic, thermoelectric, electromagnetic, piezoelectric etc.) is proposed. Generally, UPC removes the need of multiple optimized source specific converters. But, the proposed UPC architecture will be Ultra-Low-Power (ULP) with maximized efficiency to support the low energy levels generated by harvesting sources. This UPC uses a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 28 Mar 2016 · 7,782 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolicy Decisions for a Price Dependent Demand Rate Inventory Model with Progressive Payments SchemeMukesh Kumar, Rajat KumarProblem statement: In this proposed research, we developed an inventory model to formulate an optimal ordering policies for supplier who offers progressive permissible delay periods to the retailer to settle his/her account. We assumed that the annual demand rate as a decreasing function of price with constant rate of deterioration and time-varying holding cost. Shortages in inventory are allowed which … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 17 Feb 2012 · 7,048 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModel for Load Balancing On Processors in Parallel Mining of Frequent ItemsetsRavindra Patel, S. S. Rana, K. R. PardasaniThe existence of many large transactions distributed databases with high data schemas, the centralized approach for mining association rules in such databases will not be feasible. Some distributed algorithms have been developed [FDM, CD], but none of them have considered the problem of data skews in distributed mining of association rules. The skewness of datasets reduces the workload balancing between … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 7,341 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordProductive and Economic Performances of Magelang Duck Fed on Fermented Kariba WeedAgus Setiadi, Siswanto Imam Santoso, Edjeng Suprijatna et al.The duck farming business faces the high feeding costs problem. Kariba Weed (KW) is an alternative feed that has been widely used as a source of ducks' feeding materials. However, a problem exists because KW contains high crude fibre. Fermented KW that contains microbes will reduce the crude fibre content, leading to a good quality of duck meat.
