Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Network Design for Efficient Energy Utilization in Wireless Sensor NetworksChutima Prommak, Sujitra ModhirunProblem statement: This research presents a study of the optimal network design for efficient energy utilization in continuous data-gathering Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs). We first examine the problem of minimizing the network cost through the minimum number of relay-station installation. Then we further investigate the problem of minimizing the energy consumption of the sensor nodes. Approach: We model the network … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 3 Nov 2011 · 7,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Object Oriented Analysis and Design ApproachSunil Kr Pandey, G. P. Singh, Dr. Vineet KansalProblem statement: Object and component technologies, rapidly maturing branches of information technology, have been becoming pervasive elements of systems development, especially the recently popular Internet applications and thus leading to increased complexity and at the same time broader range of applications. Approach: This needs to be understood in order to maximize its benefits and applications with consistent results. However, mainstream … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 9,920 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomating the Mapping Process of Traditional Malay Textile Knowledge Model with the Core OntologySyerina Azlin Md Nasir, Nor Laila Md NoorProblem statement: The wave of ontology has spread drastically in the cultural heritage domain. The impact can be seen from the growing number of cultural heritage web information systems, available textile ontology and harmonization works with the core ontology, CIDOC CRM. The aim of this study is to provide a base for common views in automating the process of mapping … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2011 · 7,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Useful Life of Lubricants Using Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) and Vector Projection Approach (VPA)Surachai Bovornsethanant, Somchai WongwisesProblem statement: In general, engine oil is usually changed as defined by car or lubricant manufacturers, which is according to mileage. However, it was found from past researches that, at the predefined mileage or timeframe, most lubricant is still acceptably usable and efficient. Approach: This research aimed to calculate useful life of lubricant in order to reach its maximum usefulness. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,647 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPRESY: A Context Based Query Reformulation Tool for Information Retrieval on the WebAbdelkrim Bouramoul, Mohamed-Khireddine Kholladi, Bich-Lien DoanProblem statement: The huge number of information on the web as well as the growth of new inexperienced users creates new challenges for information retrieval. It has become increasingly difficult for these users to find relevant documents that satisfy their individual needs. Certainly the current search engines (such as Google, Bing and Yahoo) offer an efficient way to browse the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRepairing and Strengthening of an Existing Reinforced Concrete Building: A North Cyprus PerspectiveHakan Yalciner, Amir A. HedayatProblem statement: Inadequate attention during design and construction of some of Reinforced Concrete (RC) buildings in North Cyprus has raised questions about the performance level of these existing buildings under future earthquakes. Approach: Column jacketing, adding steel braces and new shear walls to an existing building are common strengthening methods used by practical engineers in North Cyprus to increase the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 9,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCalculation of Total Cost, Tolerance Based on Taguchi's, Asymmetric Quality Loss Function ApproachR. Sampath Kumar, N. Alagumurthi, R. RameshProblem statement: Current world market force the manufacturing sectors to develop high quality product and process design with minimum possible cost. About 80% of problems in production units may be attributed to 20% of design tolerance causes. While design typically represents the smallest actual cost elements in products (around 5%), it leverages the largest cost influence (around 70%). So design … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,052 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of the Behavior of Tailings Earthen Dam Under Seismic ConditionsDebarghya Chakraborty, Deepankar ChoudhuryProblem statement: A number of tailings earthen dams have failed during past earthquakes. The failure of tailings dam ultimately results into the release of the stored tailings waste deposit in the surrounding locality. To reduce such damage of tailings earthen dam, a detail method of seismic analysis is very much essential which can be used reliably for the design and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 8,563 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPoverty Alleviation and Sustainable Development: The Role of Social CapitalAli Asadi, Morteza Akbari, Hossain Shabanali Fami et al.Developing countries are facing dilemmas such as un-sustainability, and poverty, (especially rural poverty). Poor people are often seen as compelled to exploit their surrounding for short-term survival and are assumed to be the ones most exposed to natural resources degradation. In order that at the first; we review the extensive theoretical literature on social capital, poverty and sustainability and demonstrate … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 9,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHardware Implementation of Higher Throughput Anti-Collision Algorithm for Radio Frequency Identification SystemJahariah Sampe, Masuri OthmanThis paper presents a proposed hardware implementation of Higher Throughput Anti-Collision Algorithm (HTACA) for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system. Our proposed HTACA combines a pipeline and a deterministic anti-collision technique in order to enhance its performances. These downlink and uplink operations are concurrently executed during the identification process. The downlink operation is purposely pre-selected a group of tags base on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,447 accessesView PDFCite
