Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGray-Level Co-occurrence Matrix Bone Fracture DetectionHum Yan Chai, Lai Khin Wee, Tan Tian Swee et al.Problem statement: Currently doctors in orthopedic wards inspect the bone x-ray images according to their experience and knowledge in bone fracture analysis. Manual examination of x-rays has multitude drawbacks. The process is time-consuming and subjective. Approach: Since detection of fractures is an important orthopedics and radiologic problem and therefore a Computer Aided Detection(CAD) system should be developed to improve the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 8,968 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDelay Analysis and System Capacity Control for Mobile WiMAX Relay NetworksAnas F. Bayan, Tat-Chee Wan, Sureswaran RamadassProblem statement: WiMAX relay is an emerging cost effective wireless last mile solution for rural and urban broadband Internet access. Approach: One of the key concerns of WiMAX operators is how many users they can support for an access area where the number of users and the amount of data that can be delivered to the end user depends on … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 5 Aug 2010 · 7,428 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Ad Hoc on Demand Distance Vector Routing Protocol in HetMAN ArchitectureZahian Ismail, Rosilah HassanProblem statement: Mobile Ad hoc Network (MANET), a type of network with special characteristics, needs a special mechanism to bear with its ad hoc behavior. Approach: The important issue in MANET is routing protocol. Routing protocol is a standard used to determine the route path taken during the transmission of data. Results: In this study we focused on the Ad … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 6,332 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHAZOP Analysis Management System with Dynamic Visual Model AidNan Bin Mad Sahar, Syahril Ardi, Suzuki Kazuhiko et al.Problem statement: Ensuring safe operability and minimizing risk is the key component to prevent negative impact in all industries dealing with toxic, reactive, flammable and explosive. Hazard and Operability (HAZOP), a preliminary and systematic approach for identifying hazards has been unquestionably successful in reducing incidents by mitigating the consequence of major accident in the industries process facility. However, laborious work, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,986 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractKinematics Model of Snake Robot Considering Snake ScaleRaisuddin Khan, M. Watanabe, A. A. ShafieProblem statement: In snake robot research, one of the most efficient forms of locomotion is the lateral undulation. However, lateral undulation, also known as serpentine locomotion, is ill-suited for narrow spaces, as the body of the snake must assume a certain amount of curvature to propel forward. Approach: To overcome the inability to adapt to narrow spaces, a novel type … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 8,130 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Maintenance Performance of the Semiconductor Factories Based on the Analytical Hierarchy Process and Grey Relational AnalysisFei-Long Chen, Yun-Chin ChenProblem statement: Maintenance is an important factor in semiconductor factories, not only because of costs and the need for the uninterrupted operation of semiconductor equipment, but also the time and expense required for maintenance. If maintenance procedures are not performed properly, the equipment will have low efficiency or break down, production capacity will decrease and the company will incur extra … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,308 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuel and Greenhouse Gas Emission Reduction Potentials by Appropriate Fuel Switching and Technology Improvement in the Canadian Electricity Generation SectorFarshid Zabihian, Alan S. FungProblem statement: In recent years, Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions and their potential effects on global climate change have been a worldwide concern. According to International Energy Agency (IEA), power generation contributes more than half of the global GHG emissions. Approach: Purpose of this study is to examine GHG emission reduction potentials in the Canadian electricity generation sector through fuel switching … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,031 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBUSINESS LOGIC EVALUATION MODEL USING DEPENDENCY ANALYSIS APPROACH FOR SER-VICE INTEGRATIONM. Thirumaran, M. Jannani, P. Dhavachelvan et al.In order to extract and integrate the required business logics from the rapidly expanding business services accurately and efficiently, developers must fathom the entire service and must decide on the proper approach to merge them which is a complex and time-consuming task. So integrating the service logics automatically by scrutinizing the dependency relations existing on business rules, functions and parameters … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 10 May 2014 · 6,510 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractANALYSIS OF BAYESIAN CLASSIFIER ACCURACYFelipe Schneider Costa, Maria Marlene De Souza Pires, Silvia Modesto NassarThe naïve Bayes classifier is considered one of the most effective classification algorithms today, competing with more modern and sophisticated classifiers. Despite being based on unrealistic (naïve) assumption that all variables are independent, given the output class, the classifier provides proper results. However, depending on the scenario utilized (network structure, number of samples or training cases, number of variables), the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 26 Sep 2013 · 8,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancement of Voltage Stability by Optimal Location of Static Var Compensator Using Genetic Algorithm and Particle Swarm OptimizationR. Kalaivani, V. KamarajProblem statement: Voltage instability and voltage collapse have been considered as a major threat to present power system networks due to their stressed operation. It is very important to do the power system analysis with respect to voltage stability. Approach: Flexible AC Transmission System (FACTS) is an alternating current transmission system incorporating power electronic-based and other static controllers to enhance … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 11 May 2012 · 9,443 accessesView PDFCite
