Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Framework of Successful Executive Information System Development for Education DomainMahamsiatus Kamaruddin, Rozilawati RazaliProblem statement: Education management is a centralized process of planning, monitoring and controlling entities involved in education affairs so that they align with educational aspirations. It normally concerns several layers of administration that requires different types of information from various operational units. Operational units in education however are scattered and managed independently. As a result, most information is isolated where … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 30 Aug 2011 · 7,612 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSecure Group Key Management for Dynamic Sensor NetworksN. Suganthi, V. Sumathi, R S. MohanapriyhaProblem statement: Key management is an important cryptographic technique for providing security in a dynamic environment of sensor networks. To provide a secure communication among a group of sensor nodes keys should established in an efficient manner. We introduced an efficient and dynamic key management system for dynamic sensor networks. Approach: We pre deployed some of the keying materials in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 6,749 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDissecting Two Approaches to Energy PricesJulius N. Esunge, Andrew Snyder-BeattieProblem statement: This research tested the viability of Geometric Brownian Motion as a stochastic model of oil prices. Approach: Using autoregressions and unit root tests, we determined that oil prices tend not to exhibit the Markov Property and thus GBM may be a problematic model. Results: Instead, oil prices seem to be mean reverting over the long run, possibly following … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 18 May 2011 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObject Oriented Modeling of Thermostatically Controlled Devices for Cold Load Pick-upAlexandre de Assis Mota, Lia Toledo Moreira Mota, Claudia Cotrim PezzutoProblem statement: During service restoration, the power level at buses can significantly differ from the one presented under steady-state conditions, demanding an amount of electric power significantly higher than the normal load. Hence, their post-outage behavior must be adequately forecasted in order to permit the development of reliable restoration plans, or to avoid inadequate actions that may lead to a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 6,851 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study of the Effect of Lossy and Lossless Block Based Binary Plane Techniques on Medical ImagesNalla Subhash Chandra, Mahaboob Basha Shaik, A. Govardhan, M. BalrajuProblem statement: The general and medical images in specific contain different regions holding information of different significances. To elaborate medical information, the doctor prefers to focus on certain selected region (s) of interest. So for medical images the diagnostically important regions must be preserved at high quality, whereas the rest of the image is required only in a contextual sense. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 23 Oct 2010 · 7,381 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSessile Drop Evaporation and Leidenfrost PhenomenonA. K. Mozumder, M. R. Ullah, A. Hossain, M. A. IslamProblem statement: Quenching and cooling are important process in manufacturing industry for controlling the mechanical properties of materials, where evaporation is a vital mode of heat transfer. Approach: This study experimentally investigated the evaporation of sessile drop for four different heated surfaces of Aluminum, Brass, Copper and Mild steel with a combination of four different liquids as Methanol, Ethanol, Water … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Influence of Soil Characteristics in Low Flows RegionalizationPaolo Vezza, Claudio Comoglio, Alberto Viglione, Maurizio RossoProblem statement: For the purpose of low flows regionalization, relevant issue for water resources management like environmental flows requirements definition, this study focused on the controls on the seasonal and spatial variability of q95 (i.e., the specific discharge that was exceeded on 95% of all the time) with particular reference to the role of soil characteristics, that, like soil infiltration … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Power Phase Locked Loop Frequency Synthesizer for 2.4 GHz Band ZigbeeNesreen Mahmoud Hammam Ismail, Masuri OthmanProblem statement: Wireless communication systems are required for many applications. There are different standards for these systems. IEEE 802.15.4 defines the communication system standard for zigbee. This study discussed designing one of the blocks of zigbee transceiver which is the Phase Locked Loop (PLL). A major target for any communication systems is saving battery power, especially for zigbee as it … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,061 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Manufacturing Stresses to Die Attach Film Performance In Quad Flatpack No-Lead Stacked Die PackagesM. F. Rosle, I. Abdullah, S. Abdullah et al.Problem statement: Repeated heat cure during assembly processes affected the Die Attach Film (DAF) material properties and the effectiveness touched area that leads to weak die bonding and delamination. Suitable die attached condition and DAF material selection had been evaluated to achieve required reliability performance in the manufacturing of the 3D Quad Flat No-Lead (QFN) stacked die package. Approach: During … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 8,054 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Higher Sludge Recycling Rate on Anaerobic Treatment of Palm Oil Mill Effluent in a Semi-Commercial Closed Digester for Renewable EnergyAlawi Sulaiman, Zainuri Busu, Meisam Tabatabaei et al.Problem statement: A 500 m3 semi-commercial closed anaerobic digester was constructed for Palm Oil Mill Effluent (POME) treatment and methane gas capture for renewable energy. During the start-up operation period, the Volatile Fatty Acids (VFA) accumulation could not be controlled and caused instability on the system. Approach: A settling tank was installed and sludge was recycled as to provide a … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 9,215 accessesView PDFCite
