Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA MIXTURE DROPOUT MECHANISM IN A LONGITUDINAL STUDY WITH TWO TIME POINTS: A METHADONE STUDYZohreh Toghrayee, Parvin Jalili, Heng Chin Low, Ardavan TaghvaOne of the most important issues that confront statisticians in longitudinal studies is dropouts. A variety of reasons may lead to withdrawal from a study and produce two different missingness mechanisms, namely, missing at random and non-ignorable dropouts. Nevertheless, none of these mechanisms is tenable in most studies. In addition, it may be that not all of dropouts are nonignorable. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 26 Apr 2014 · 6,726 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Discrete Event Simulator for Extensive Defense Mechanism for Denial of Service Attacks AnalysisMaryam Tanha, Seyed Dawood Sajjadi Torshizi, S. ShamalaProblem statement: Seeking for defense mechanisms against low rate Denial of Service (DoS) attacks as a new generation of DoS attacks has received special attention during recent years. As a decisive factor, evaluating the performance of the offered mitigation techniques based on different metrics for determining the viability and ability of these countermeasures requires more research. Approach: The development of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 21 Mar 2012 · 7,473 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Hand-off Mechanism for Vehicular NetworksM. Dinakaran, P. BalasubramanieProblem statement: In recent times, wireless networks have become ubiquitous and the hotspot research arena. When a mobile node switches from one access network to another network, the node is said to perform a handoff. This transition is a complex and time-consuming task since after transit the mobile node has to obtain a new Care of Address (CoA) from the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 3 Nov 2011 · 7,294 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHandling Web and Database Requests Using Fuzzy Rules for Anomaly Intrusion DetectionSelvamani Kadirvelu, Kannan ArputharajProblem statement: It is necessary to propose suitable detection and prevention mechanisms to provide security for the information contents used by the web application. Many prevention mechanisms which are currently available are not able to classify anomalous, random and normal request. This leads to the problem of false positives which is classifying a normal request as anomalous and denying access … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,307 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFour Dimensional (4-D) BioChemInfoPhysics Models of Cardiac Cellular and Sub-Cellular Vibrations (Oscillations)Kang Cheng, Chang-Hua ZouProblem statement: Cardiovascular Diseases (CVD) continued to be the leading cause of death. Failure or abnormal cardiac cellular or sub-cellular vibrations (oscillations) could lead failure or abnormal heart beats that could cause CVD. Understanding the mechanisms of the vibrations (oscillations) could help to prevent or to treat the diseases. Scientists have studied the mechanisms for more than 100 years.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Packet Marketing Method in DDoS Attack DetectionChanghyun Beak, Junaid Ahsenali Chaudhry, Keonsoo Lee et al.Functionality and availability are one of the main characteristics of internet and hence very inviting for attackers to try to provoke a denial-of-service attack. As the intensity and frequency of DDoS attacks has increased, various preventive mechanisms have also been proposed. One of the most effective defence mechanisms proposed was Path Identification (Pi). This method tracks the packet transmission path. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 7,078 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultivalent Optimizer-Based Hybrid Genetic Algorithm for Task Scheduling in Cloud ApplicationsMeena Malik, Bhavna Gupta, Chander Prabha et al.Cloud computing platforms provide on-demand online services without the need for direct user management. Generally, big clouds distribute functions over multiple data centers at distant locations. The major facilities offered by clouds are based upon virtual machines which provide benefits in terms of low scheduling cost, improved accessibility and availability of cloud services.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating Stochastic Properties into Traffic Flow Modeling: A Stimulus-Response ApproachKonate N’Golo, Mark Kimathi, Emile DanhoHighway traffic congestion, characterized by its inherent instability, has been extensively studied using deterministic models, providing valuable insights. However, these models often overlook the stochastic nature of driver behavior, a key factor that significantly impacts traffic flow. Recognizing this, a car-following model with discretionary lane changes to analyze their effect on traffic dynamics was introduced. While the mathematical results were … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 20, Issue 1 · 19 Dec 2024 · 7,156 accessesView PDFCite
