Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnergy Aware Multiple Constraints Quality of Service Routing Protocol with Dynamic Mobility Prediction for Mobile Ad hoc NetworksSenthilkumar Maruthamuthu, Somasundaram SankaralingamProblem statement: This study presents a source based reactive protocol called "Energy Aware Multiple Constraints QoS Routing Protocol with Dynamic Mobility Prediction (EMQRPDM)" for MANET. It is an enhanced version of our previous protocol called "Power aware multiple QoS constraints routing protocol with mobility prediction (PMQRPMP)". It addresses the issues such as routing, mobility and power management in MANET. Approach: … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2011 · 6,477 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract3-Unit System Comprising Two Types of Units with First Come First Served Repair Pattern Except When Both Types of Units are Waiting for RepairAmit Goyal, Gulshan Taneja, D. V. SinghProblem statement: In this study we investigated the probabilistic analysis of a three unit system working in a sugar Mill, wherein one unit is big and the other two units are small and identical, is examined. Upon failure of the big unit, both small units are made operative and failed unit is undertaken for repair immediately. Priority for operation is … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,407 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost Analysis of a Two Dissimilar-Unit Cold Standby Redundant System Subject to Inspection and Random Change in UnitsG. S. Mokaddis, C. H. MattaProblem statement: This study deled with the cost analysis of a two dissimilar unit cold standby redundant system subject to inspection and random change in units. In this system each unit works in two different modes normal and total failure. Assuming that the failure, repair, post repair, interchange of units and inspection times are stochastically independent random variables each having … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,298 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCompare Between Two-Unit Cold Standby and Warm Standby Outdoor Electric Power Systems in Changing WeatherG. S. Mokaddis, M. Salah EL-Sherbeny, Entesar Al-EsayehProblem statement: This study presents the reliability analysis of two mathematical models representing electric power systems operating in fluctuating outdoor weather (i.e., normal and stormy weather) and compared between two models. Approach: Model I deals the reliability analysis of a single-server two-unit cold standby, Model II deals the reliability analysis of a single-server two-unit warm standby, for two systems with … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,439 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnti-Toxoplasma gondii Antibodies in Haemodialysis PatientsKavous Solhjoo, Abdolreza Sotoodeh Jahromi, Ayeh Parnian-RadProblem statement: In situations of immunodeficiency, Toxoplasma gondii emerges as a life-threatening infection. Toxoplasma gondii is transmitted parenterally, flourish in immunocompromised subjects and, most toxoplasma infections are asymptomatic. Studies have shown that there is a immunodeficiency in renal failure patient such as hemodialysis patients and these patients have a high risk for many infections. There is no evidence about toxoplasmosis … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison Study of Transmission Control Protocol and User Datagram Protocol Behavior over Multi-Protocol Label Switching Networks in Case of FailuresTaha Ahmed Al-Radaei, Zuriati Ahmad ZukarnainProblem statement: In only a few years, Multi-Protocol Label Switching (MPLS) has evolved from an exotic technology to a mainstream tool used by service providers to create revenue-generating services. MPLS provides a high reliable Label Switched Path (LSP). MPLS failures may degrade the reliability of the MPLS networks. Approach: For that reason, many studies have been conducted to keep the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,949 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPush Vs Pull: Factors Influence Student RetentionMatthew Leone, Robert G. TianProblem statement: Student retention becomes one of the most significant issues that administrators of colleges and universities must deal with in today’s highly competitive market. Approach: In fact retaining a student is fundamental to the ability of an institution to carry out its mission. A high rate of attrition is not only a fiscal problem for schools, but a symbolic … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,340 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtection for an Immediate Split Structure of Tree-Based EPON Architecture-Ideal Condition AnalysisMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Siti Asma Che Aziz, Kasmiran JumariProblem statement: Ethernet Passive Optical Network (EPON) was proposed to overcome the bandwidth bottleneck at the Access Networks due to its simplicity, cost effective and wide spread deployment. A failure in access networks can cause serious problems, because access network transmit aggregated high speed traffic from hundreds of subscribers. Protection and restoration mechanisms have been applied in backbone networks, but … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,276 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStochastic Behavior of a Two-Unit Warm Standby System with Two Types of Repairmen and Patience TimeG. S. Mokaddis, M. Salah EL-Sherbeny, Y. Mahmoud AyidProblem statement: In this study we investigated the probabilistic analysis of a two-unit warm standby system with constant failure rate and two types of repairmen and patience time. The first repairman, usually called regular repairman, always remained with the repair facility, with the known fact that he might not be able to do some complex repairs within some tolerable (patience) … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,751 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost Elasticities of Reliability and MTTF for k-out-of-n SystemsAli Muhammad Rushdi, Abdulaziz Efain AlsulamiThe application of the concept of cost elasticity of reliability was extended from the parallel system to the partially redundant or k-out-of-n:G(F) system (or k-out-of-n system, for short). An expression for the cost elasticity of reliability was derived for a general k-out-of-n system. The expression yielded acceptable results for a wide range of values for k, n, and component reliability. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,295 accessesView PDFCite
