Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe International Multimodal Transport of Hazardous Goods and WasteGiancarlo Carosso, Cesare Luceri, Pierpaolo OresteThe international multimodal transport of hazardous goods and waste is a sector of remarkable economic importance. This transport activity is connected to several productive sectors and it can have considerable repercussions on the environment and health as well as on the safety of the workers and third parties that study in the same field. A certain part of the transport … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 10 Jul 2012 · 7,123 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating Public Participation Process in Development Projects in Thailand: A Case Study of the Hin Krut Power Plant ProjectChutarat Chompunth, Suphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: Public participation has become a vital element of environmental decision-making. Although public participation has grown tremendously in Thailand due to a rising pressure from the public, this practice often fails to solve environmental problems and conflicts. There is a keen for a systematic evaluation of the public participation process to investigate whether the participation process is effective and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 16 Mar 2012 · 7,642 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSteel Plates Faults Diagnosis with Data Mining ModelsMahmoud Fakhr, Alaa M. ElsayadProblem statement: Over the last two decades, Fault Diagnosis (FD) has a major importance to enhance the quality of manufacturing and to lessen the cost of product testing. Actually, quick and correct FD system helps to keep away from product quality problems and facilitates precautionary maintenance. FD may be considered as a pattern recognition problem. It has been gaining more … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 31 Jan 2012 · 11,383 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Optimal Path Management Strategy in Mobile Ad Hoc Network Using Fuzzy and Rough Set TheoryP. Seethalakshmi, M. Joseph Auxilius Jude, G. RajendranProblem statement: Mobile Ad Hoc Network (MANET) is a collection of wireless mobile nodes that dynamically forms a network. Most of the existing ad-hoc routing algorithms select the shortest path using various resources. However the selected path may not consider all the network parameters and this would result in link instability in the network. The problems with existing methods are … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 15 Oct 2011 · 7,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Metadata Analysis and Base Analysis Techniques in Data Qualities Framework for Data WarehousesAzwa Abdul Aziz, Md Yazid Mohd Saman, Mohd Pouzi HamzahInformation provided by any applications systems in organization is vital in order to obtain a decision. Due to this factor, the quality of data provided by Data Warehouse (DW) is really important for organization to produce the best solution for their company to move forwards. DW is complex systems that have to deliver highly-aggregated, high quality data from heterogeneous sources … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,532 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Laboratory Study of Curiosity Behavior in Feedback-Based DecisionsTakemi FujikawaProblem statement: This study adopts an interdisciplinary approach in conducting the study on "curiosity" with a toolset of experimental economics. Approach: I hypothesized that the Decision Makers (DMs) tended to exhibit curiosity behavior when two conditions were met: (1) The DMs faced "small feedback-based" decision problems; (2) The DMs bore tangible costs of their curiosity behavior. Results: This study was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,463 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAlgorithm Development for Measurement and Prediction the Traffic in Broad Band Integrated Service NetworksMohammad Al Rawajbeh, Ibrahim Mansi, Majed HussienProblem statement: In this study an effort had been made to develop an algorithm for traffic prediction and measurement for a wide use networks such as B-ISDN. Such algorithm should base on valuable parameters during the various stages of data elements transmission. The offered algorithm was expected to enforce the main sources of congestion problem in network. With this technique … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 10 Aug 2010 · 7,485 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Solution Methodology of Bi-Level Linear Programming Based on Genetic AlgorithmM. S. Osman, W.F. Abd El-Wahed, Mervat M.K. El Shafei, Hanaa B. Abd El WahabProblem statement: We deal with the bi-level linear programming problem. A bi-level programming problem is formulated for a problem in which two Decision-Makers (DMs) make decisions successively. Approach: In this research we studied and designs a Genetic Algorithm (GA) of Bi-Level Linear Programming Problems (BLPP) by constructing the fitness function of the upper-level programming problems based on the definition of … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,187 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplying Simulated Annealing For Optimal Operation of Multi-Reservoir SystemsF. Khodabakhshi, A. R. Ghirian, N. KhakzadThe need to optimize the operation of water reservoirs is an issue that is becoming increasingly a concern for water resources planners in developing countries. This issue particularly becomes more significant in large systems with multiple reservoirs where operation of one reservoir has an impact on the others. In other word, the set of reservoirs in these systems act like … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,626 accessesView PDFCite
