Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Routing Technique against Packet Dropping Attack in Adhoc NetworksN. Bhalaji, Sinchan banerjee, A. ShanmugamProblem Statement: Mobile adhoc networks (MANETs) were extensively used in defense and rescue applications. The dynamic topology of MANETs allows nodes to join and leave the network at any point of time. This dynamic property of MANET has rendered it vulnerable to various security attacks. Many trust establishment methods were proposed to increase the security in MANET. In this paper … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,582 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Handwritten Tamil Character Recognition System using Octal GraphR. J. Kannan, R. PrabhakarProblem Statement: Handwriting recognition has attracted voluminous research in recent times. The segmentation and recognition of the characters from handwritten scripts incorporates considerable overhead. Almost all the existing handwritten character recognition techniques use neural network approach, which requires lot of preprocessing and hence accomplishing these problems using neural network is a tedious task. Approach: In this study we propose a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,405 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnt Colony Based Node Disjoint Hybrid Multi-path Routing for Mobile Ad Hoc NetworkB. Kalaavathi, K. DuraiswamyMobile Ad hoc Networks are characterized by multi-hop wireless links, without any infrastructure and frequent node mobility. A class of ant colony based routing protocols has recently gained attention because of their adaptability to the network changes. AntHocNet is ant colony based hybrid algorithm, which combines reactive path setup with proactive path probing, maintenance and improvement. Multi-path routing represents a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,043 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasures on the Quotient Spaces of the IntegersNorris Sookoo, Peter ChamiSK-partitions were introduced by Sharma and Kaushik, who defined distances (metrics) between vectors in terms of partitions of the alphabet set Fq , the set of the ring of integers modulo q. These distances were applied in Coding Theory. The research examined algebraic and topological aspects of SK-partitions and related sets of measures. A lattice of SK-partitions was introduced and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Search Results Using Dynamic Document Seed Reranking AlgorithmAngelina Geetha, A. KannanWe proposed an algorithm to improve the precision of top retrieved documents by re-ordering the retrieved documents in the initial retrieval. To re-order the documents, we first automatically extract key terms and key phrases from top N retrieved documents and generate a document index for each document. Using the standard similarity metrics, a document similarity matrix is generated for these … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,745 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Integrated Quantitative Assessment Model For Usability EngineeringHaidar S. Jabbar, T. V. Gopal, Sattar J. AboudMany different quantitative assessment models have been proposed to measure and report the usability of a general software product for various business and design purposes. However, there are several problems coupled with existing models that consequently bias and affect the process and results of the usability assessment. Moreover, they do not aid their usage by analysts who are not experienced … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,702 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Framework for Distributed Dynamic Load Balancing in Heterogeneous ClusterNeeraj Nehra, R. B. Patel, V. K. BhatDistributed Dynamic load balancing (DDLB) is an important system function destined to distribute workload among available processors to improve throughput and/or execution times of parallel computer in Cluster Computing. Instead of balancing the load in cluster by process migration, or by moving an entire process to a less loaded computer, we make an attempt to balance load by splitting processes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 8,725 accessesView PDFCite
