Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffectiveness of Agricultural Extension ActivitiesAli AL-Sharafat, Mohammad Altarawneh, Ebraheem AltahatProblem statement: Jordan’s agricultural extension service is seriously under-staffed and its effectiveness is consequently compromised. Reservations are being expressed about the performance and capability of the agricultural extension system in Jordan. The performance of this sector has been disappointing and has failed to transfer agricultural technology to the farmers. The main objective of this study is to assess the effectiveness … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 5 Apr 2012 · 9,470 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Approach to Defend Against Distributed Denial of Service Attacks Using an Adaptive Spin Lock Rate Control MechanismR. Anurekha, K. Duraiswamy, A. Viswanathan et al.Problem statement: The last decade has seen many prominent Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks on high profile webservers. In this study, we deal with DDoS attacks by proposing a dynamic reactive defense system using an adaptive Spin Lock Rate control (D3SLR). D3SLR identifies malicious traffic flow towards a target system based on the volume of traffic flowing towards the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 17 Feb 2012 · 7,062 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Stringent Authorization using Principles and Policy for Grid ComputingA. R. Jayasudha, T. PurusothamanProblem statement: The current information security mechanisms are insufficient to address authorization issues. The access control models today are mostly static and they are not wellsuited for the service-oriented environments where information access is dynamic in nature. Traditional authorization security techniques do not directly address these concerns as they primarily use access control lists for authorization, where the user whose … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 8 Aug 2011 · 6,634 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSecurity Extensible Access Control Markup Language Policy Integration Based on Role-Based Access Control Model in Healthcare Collaborative EnvironmentsTeo Poh Kuang, Hamidah Ibrahim, Nur Izura Udzir, Fatimah SidiRecently research is focused on security policy integration and conflict reconciliation among various healthcare organizations. Problem statement: However, challenging security and privacy risk issues still arisen during sharing sensitive patient data in different large distributed organizations. Though eXtensible Access Control Markup Language (XACML) has a powerful capacity of expression, it does not support all the elements character of RBAC. Thus, … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2011 · 9,067 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Causal Protocol with Forward Error Correction for Mobile Distributed SystemsEduardo Lopez Dominguez, Saul E. Pomares Hernandez, Gustavo Rodriguez Gomez et al.Problem statement: Causal ordering is used in Mobile Distributed Systems (MDS) to reduce the non-determinism induced by four main aspects: host mobility, asynchronous execution, unpredictable communication delays and unreliable communication channels. Some causal protocols have been proposed for MDS. All of these protocols in order to ensure the causal order in unreliable channels use the method of Automatic Repeat Request … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 8,239 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractData Replication Using Read-One-Write-All Monitoring Synchronization Transaction System in Distributed EnvironmentNoraziah Ahmad, Ahmed N. Abdalla, Roslina Mohd SidekNowadays, the demand of transmitted information over networks increase rapidly and the demand for steady bandwidth seems to be out of control. Particularly organizations need to provide updated data to users that might be geographically remote and handling a vast amount of requested data distributed in multiple sites. Problem statement: Replication in distributed environment has become increasingly popular due to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 30 Jul 2010 · 7,048 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCamel's Milk Protects Against Cadmium Chloride Induced Toxicity in White Albino RatsFahaid Al-Hashem, Mohammad Dallak, Nabil Bashir et al.Problem statement: Cadmium is one of the most dangerous occupational and environmental toxins. It is found in drinking water, atmospheric air and even in food. Cadmium is reported to be very toxic to biological systems. Until now in treating intoxication with this metal, chelating Compounds have been used, burdened with numerous undesirable symptoms. For this reason, many researches are carried … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 9,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving the Near-Far Problem in Dynamic Frequency Hopping-Optical Code Division Multiple Access using Power ControlW. J.M. Al-galbi, M. Mokhtar, A. F. Abas et al.Problem statement: In this study, a distributed power control algorithm is proposed for Dynamic Frequency Hopping Optical-CDMA (DFH-OCDMA) system. Approach: In general, the DFH-OCDMA can support higher number of simultaneous users compared to other OCDMA techniques. However, the performance of such system degrades significantly as the received power does lower than its minimum threshold. Results: This may obviously occur in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling, Simulation and Group Control of Distributed Static Series CompensatorsPoria Fajri, Saeed Afsharnia, Daryoush Nazarpour, Mohammad Ali TavallaeiThis study investigates the new concept of Distributed Static Series Compensator (DSSC); a small, light weight cylinder that clamps directly onto the transmission line conductor and has the ability to alter the impedance of the power lines in order to increase power transfer capability and maximize economic value of the transmission system. A graphic-based simulation model of the DSSC is … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 19 Dec 2008 · 7,658 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhancing Wireless Medium Access Control Layer Misbehavior Detection System in IEEE 802.11 NetworkA. M. Alsahag, M. OthmanWireless Medium Access Control (MAC) protocols such as IEEE 802.11 use distributed contention resolution mechanisms for sharing the wireless channel. In this environment, selfish hosts that fail to adhere to the MAC protocol may obtain an unfair throughput share. For example, IEEE 802.11 requires hosts competing for access to the channel to wait for a "back-off" interval, randomly selected from … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,963 accessesView PDFCite
