Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Novel Approach to Modeling and Flooding in Ad-hoc Wireless NetworksO. Issaad, S. Pierre, G. I. Ivascu, O. GarciaThis study proposes a new modeling approach for wireless ad-hoc networks. The new approach is based on the construction of fuzzy neighborhoods and essentially consists of assigning a membership or importance degree to each network radio link which reflects the relative quality of this link. This approach is first used to model the flooding problem and then an algorithm is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEmpirical Analysis of Virtual Carrier Sense Flooding Attacks Over Wireless Local Area NetworkMina Malekzadeh, Abdul Azim Abdul Ghani, Jalil Desa, Shamala SubramaniamProblem statement: Wireless Local Areas (WLANs) are subject to different types of vulnerabilities. Denial of Service (DoS) attack is the most current challenging issue on the WLANs. The objectives of the study were to (i) Provide an empirical analysis to conduct a series of wireless virtual carrier sense DoS attacks using wireless control frames vulnerabilities, (ii) Design a testbed to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,650 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFlood Forecasting in Malawi's Shire River BasinDaniel Nakapu Hussein, Mwakio Tole, Maarifa MwakumanyaThis study describes a study conducted in 2021-2022 in the Shire River Basin (SRB) of Chikwawa District, Malawi to evaluate how flood forecasting is currently performed and to provide recommendations for improvement. Flooding often occurs in the basin, endangering people's lives and property. A case in point is the 2015 flood and 2019 Tropical Cyclone Idai, which were so devastating … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 2 · 30 May 2023 · 7,004 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Time of Flooding Occurrence is Critical for Yield Production in Rice and Vary in a Genotype-Dependent MannerJenjira Mongon, Arom Jantasorn, Prateep Oupkaew et al.Flash floods occur in rainfed lowland and flood-prone areas and have a profound incidence on crop yield, which is tightly linked to worldwide food insecurity. The most flooding-threatened crop is rice. Under this condition, rice undergoes anoxic and post-anoxic shock that affects its growth, development capacity and ultimately causes an important grain yield loss. Therefore, the introduction of submergence-tolerant varieties … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 2 · 3 Jun 2017 · 8,093 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessEvery word in the titleBackpropagation Vs. Radial Basis Function Neural Model: Rainfall Intensity Classification For Flood Prediction Using Meteorology DataSoo See Chai, Wei Keat Wong, Kok Luong GohRainfall is one of the important weather variables that vary in space and time. High mean daily rainfall (>30 mm) has a high possibility of resulting in flood. Accurate prediction of this variable would save human lives and properties. Soft computing methods have been widely applied in this field. Among the various soft computing methods, Artificial Neural Network (ANN) is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 15 Apr 2016 · 8,705 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEVALUATION OF N ADDITIVES FOR IMPROVING N USE EFFICIENCY OF SURFACE APPLIED UREA TO DRY SEEDED AND PERMANENTLY FLOODED RICEDavid D. Dunn, Pawel WiatrakThere are several potential Nitrogen (N) loss mechanisms in a dry seeded and delayed flood system rice (Oryza Satvia L.) production system including urea volatilization and denitrification. The scope and magnitude of these potential losses are largely weather dependent. Two additives (stabilizers), Agrotain and Nutrisphere-N, have been offered to rice producers for controlling these potential losses. This study compared these … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Jun 2014 · 6,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSelective Flooding Based on Relevant Nearest-Neighbor using Query Feedback and Similarity across Unstructured Peer-to-Peer NetworksIskandar Ishak, Naomie SalimProblem statement: Efficient searching is a fundamental problem for unstructured peer to peer networks. Flooding requires a lot of resources in the network and thus will increase the search cost. Searching approach that utilizes minimum network resources is required to produce efficient searching in the robust and dynamic peer-to-peer network. Approach: This study addressed the need for efficient flood-based searching … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,696 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSpecific Features of the Accumulation and Distribution of Heavy Metals in Soils of the Floodplain and Deltaic Landscapes of the Don RiverTatiana M. Minkina, Dina G. Nevidomskaya, Yuriy A. Fedorov et al.The purpose of this work was to study specific features of the accumulation and distribution of the total content and mobile forms of Heavy Metals (HM) in soils of the estuarine ecosystems of the floodplain and deltaic landscapes of the Don River. The results allowed us to detect regional specific features in the formation of HM compounds in floodplain soils … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 11 · 19 Nov 2015 · 6,586 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Burr X Nadarajah Haghighi Distribution: Statistical Properties and Application to the Exceedances of Flood Peaks DataHisham A.H. Elsayed, Haitham M. YousofIn this study, new version from the Nadarajah Haghighi model is proposed. The introduced model has a failure rate function that may change in different directions. Statistical properties of the new density function are derived along with the analysis of variance, Skewness and Kurtosis. Parameter estimates are obtained by the method of maximum likelihood. Illustration of real data set was … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 14 Jul 2019 · 7,132 accessesView PDFCite
