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 abstractFace Biometrics Based on Principal Component Analysis and Linear Discriminant AnalysisLih-Heng Chan, Sh-Hussain Salleh, Chee-Ming TingProblem statement: In facial biometrics, face features are used as the required human traits for automatic recognition. Feature extracted from face images are significant for face biometrics system performance. Approach: In this thesis, a framework of facial biometric was designed based on two subspace methods i.e., Principal Component Analysis (PCA) and Linear Discriminant Analysis (LDA). First, PCA is used for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Distance Measurement Between Stereo Vision and Ultrasonic SensorSurachai PanichProblem statement: The traditional approaches in mobile robot research are the use of stereo vision systems to extract range information from pairs of images. One of the difficulties of techniques in navigation is that the intrinsic computational expense of extracting three dimensional information from stereo pairs of images. Approach: To compare performance sensor readings from environment between stereo vision and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 30 Jul 2010 · 7,248 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPullout Characterizations of Various Steel Fibers Embedded in Very High-Strength ConcreteSameer Hamoush, Taher Abu-Lebdeh, Toney Cummins, Brian ZornigProblem statement: There is a real need for a fundamental understanding of bond and bond mechanisms in the newly developed Very-High-Strength-Concrete (VHSC) materials. The interfacial steel fiber/VHSC matrix bond tests are needed to characterize VHSC and to aid in the development of analytical models that describe bond behavior of this new material. Approach: This research investigated bond-slip characteristics of four … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimenting the Simulation Strategy of Membrane Computing with Gillespie Algorithm by Using Two Biological Case StudiesRavie Chandren Muniyandi, Abdullah Mohd ZinProblem statement: The evolution rules of membrane computing have been applied in a nondeterministic and maximally parallel way. In order to capture these characteristics, Gillespie’s algorithm has been used as simulation strategy of membrane computing in simulating biological systems. Approach: This study was carried to discuss the simulation strategy of membrane computing with Gillespie algorithm in comparison to the simulation … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 6,943 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUninterruptible Power Supply Using Solar Rechargeable BatteryJ.C. Osuwa, E.C. IgwiroProblem statement: A 600 watts Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) that consists of an inverter operated with solar rechargeable battery has been constructed and characterized. Approach: An inverter of high switching frequency and high power handling, a sensor, an oscillator and other electronic devices were employed in the circuitry. Performance tests involved measurements of supply currents and voltages from the battery … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpiral Wound Reverse Osmosis Membranes for the Recovery of Phenol Compounds-Experimental and Parameter Estimation StudiesG. Srinivasan, S. Sundaramoorthy, D.V.R. MurthyProblem statement: Reverse osmosis is increasingly used as a separation technique in chemical and environmental engineering for the removal of organics and organic pollutants present in waste water. The removal of an organic compound, namely phenol, using a polyamide membrane was investigated in this study. Waste water containing phenol present a serious environmental problem and increasing attention is being given … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,310 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMyocardial-Infraction Based on Intelligent TechniquesIbrahim Abdulrab AhmedProblem statement: Heart disease is the leading cause of death in the world. One of the most common types of heart diseases is Myocardial-Infraction. The ability to automatically identify Myocardial-Infraction from cardiac profiles test is important for clinical diagnosis and treatment.
