Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLand Cover Changes from Forest Fires Using CA-Markov in Pelalawan, IndonesiaApri Zulmi Hardi, Abdulkader Ali MuradForest and land fires pose significant risks to ecosystems, particularly in Pelalawan Regency, Indonesia, where slash-and-burn practices during the dry season exacerbate peatland degradation. This study integrates Cellular Automata (CA) and Markov-chain analysis to model and predict land cover changes and carbon stock dynamics over the next 20 years. The model projects spatial patterns of land cover changes from 2002-2033 … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 2 · 31 Dec 2024 · 4,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSCUTMA: Selecting Components for Unit Testing in Mobile ApplicationsJosias Gomes, Isabel K. Villanes, Silvia M. Ascate et al.Context The source code of a mobile application has several components (i.e., code units) and they have a cost (e.g., test creation and execution) and benefit (e.g., find bug) value for performing unit testing. Problem Choosing in which components unit tests should be done, in order to increase the benefit (effectiveness) and decrease the cost of this activity. Proposal This … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 10 · 15 Oct 2020 · 7,015 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTransformative Effects of Big Data on Advanced Data Analytics: Open Issues and Critical ChallengesShabnam Kumari, P. MuthulakshmiWe are living in the period of the information era (i.e., where data/information is the new oil for companies/industries). The term big data had been authored to depict this age. This study characterizes a lot on the idea of big data and its progress over the previous decade to till date. This study presents the meaning of this new idea … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 6 · 14 Jun 2022 · 6,349 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeismic and Thermal Retrofitting of Masonry Buildings with Fiber Reinforced Composite Systems: A State of the Art ReviewArnas Majumder, Flavio Stochino, Fernando Fraternali, Enzo MartinelliOld masonry buildings represent the largest part of traditional constructions. Generally, they are both seismically vulnerable and thermally dispersive. Therefore, the need for seismic and thermal retrofitting aimed at reducing their vulnerability and environmental impact has motivated research efforts towards sustainable retrofitting solutions. This study presents a literature review of the approaches currently available for masonry retrofitting. Specifically, it highlights … …International Journal of Structural Glass and Advanced Materials Research, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2021 · 11,961 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLandslide Susceptibility Analysis Using Numerical and Neural Network, Near Kedarnath, Uttarakhand, IndiaVinay Kumar Singh, Tariq Anwar Ansari, Vikram Vishal, T.N. SinghThe major concern in hilly regions is the stability of those slopes, which have been proclaimed due to unplanned excavation and uneven blasting during road widening and development activity. These slopes again become more vulnerable under dynamic loading and/or various types of human involvement, heavy rainfall and seismic activity. Failure of these slopes leads to loss of property and human … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 16, Issue 1 · 9 Mar 2020 · 7,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasuring the Resiliency of the Manhattan Points of Entry in the Face of Severe DisruptionMayada Omer, Ali Mostashari, Roshanak NilchianiProblem statement: Resilient infrastructure systems are able to continue to provide the expected service levels following disruptive events. Implementing resiliency in infrastructure systems requires knowledge of the current resiliency of the system and a methodology by which different resiliency strategies can be evaluated. In the transportation infrastructure in particular, disruptions cause delays, which will in turn incur substantial economic losses … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 15 Mar 2011 · 9,671 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Groundwater Resources of the Morainic Amphitheatre: A Case Study in PiedmontMassimo Vincenzo Civita, Marina De Maio, Adriano FiorucciProblem statement: The risk of groundwater pollution and preservation of groundwater quality of these resources are extremely important topics, particularly at the present time in which water is becoming a limitative factor for land development. In this context the main objective of this study was the evaluation of the pollution vulnerability of groundwater in the Ivrea Morainic Amphitheatre (IMA), situated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,193 accessesView PDFCite
