Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffective Processing of Constraints based Spatial Join using R-TreesR. Parvathi, S. PalaniammalProblem statement: This study focuses on the spatial join effects with the constraints-based spatial data without any extra cost and Finding the minimum execution time of the spatial query and spatial selection method. Approach: Spatial joins are used to combine the spatial objects. The efficient processing depends upon the spatial queries. The execution time and I/O time of spatial queries … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 29 Oct 2011 · 6,256 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Hyper Clustering Algorithms in Mobile Network PlanningLamiaa Fattouh Ibrahim, Hesham A. SalmanProblem statement: As a large amount of data stored in spatial databases, people may like to find groups of data which share similar features. Thus cluster analysis becomes an important area of research in data mining. Applications of clustering analysis have been utilized in many fields, such as when we search to construct a cluster served by base station in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 30 Aug 2011 · 7,504 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Clustering Techniques for Hyper Network Planning using Minimum Spanning Trees and Ant-Colony AlgorithmLamiaa Fattouh IbrahimProblem statement: The process of network planning is divided into two sub steps. The first step is determining the location of the Multi Service Access Node (MSAN). The second step is the construction of subscriber network lines from MSAN to subscribers to satisfy optimization criteria and design constraints. Due to the complexity of this process artificial intelligence and clustering techniques … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 9 Mar 2011 · 6,813 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPeriodic Review Probabilistic Multi-Item Inventory System with Zero Lead Time under Constraint and Varying Holding CostNaglaa Hassan El-SodanyProblem statement: This study treats the probabilistic safety stock n-items inventory system having varying holding cost and zero lead-time subject to linear constraint. Approach: The expected total cost is composed of three components: the average purchase cost; the expected order cost and the expected holding cost. Results: The policy variables for this model are the number of periods N*r and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2011 · 7,524 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Virtual Repository Approach to Departmental Information SharingZulikha Jamaludin, Wan Hussain Wan IshakProblem Statement: Realizing the difficulties in information sharing among the academicians, this study introduces an alternative information sharing model supporting information management features. Objective: The model is designed in an attempt to facilitate information distribution and information sharing at minimum effort and cost. Approach: A centralized database approach is used in the model enabling any educator in the higher learning … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2011 · 8,644 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Information Sharing on Supply Chain ManagementChiang WangProblem statement: Implementing information sharing and coordination can enhance the performance of supply chain management, such as a short response time, minimum cost, low inventory and joint production and transportation. Approach: Through information sharing among all supply chain members, stable long-term relationships can be established and maintained. Results: This study uses a quantitative cost model to identify the interaction among … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,602 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Rigorous Mathematical Approach for Petrophysical Properties EstimationDario VibertiProblem statement: Over the last few decades, the oil industry has shown a growing interest in the new risk analysis methodologies aimed at the evaluation of the uncertainties associated with reservoir exploitation. In particular, the effort is made to take all possible sources of uncertainties into account so that not only the strengths but also the potential weaknesses of each … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 7,976 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTechnical Efficiency of Chili ProductionA. S.M. Anwarul Huq, Fatimah Mohamed ArshadProblem statement: Scarcity of resources has led to production economists to think about the reallocation of existing resources to produce a prescribed level of output with the minimum cost without changing the production technology. But there is a lack of information about the efficient use of inputs in chili production. Except for a few descriptive studies, econometric analysis has yet … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,596 accessesView PDFCite
