Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBenchmarking in the Academic Departments using Data Envelopment AnalysisMohammad Mahallati Rayeni, Faranak Hosseinzadeh SaljooghiProblem statement: The purpose of this study is to analyze efficiency and benchmarking using Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) in departments of University. Benchmarking is a process of defining valid measures of performance comparison among peer decision making units (DMUs), using them to determine the relative positions of the peer DMUs and, ultimately, establishing a standard of excellence. Approach: DEA can … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 8 Nov 2010 · 7,172 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMerging Autopilot/Flight Control and Navigation-Flight Management SystemsKhaleel QutbodinIn this abstract the following commercial aircraft 3 avionics systems will be merged together: (1) Autopilot Flight Director System (APFDS), (2) Flight Control System (FCS) and (3) Flight Management Systems (FMS). Problem statement: These systems perform functions that are dependant and related to each other, also they consists of similar hardware components. Each of these systems consists of at least … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2010 · 8,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNetwork Data Envelopment Analysis Model for Estimating Efficiency and Productivity in UniversitiesMohammad Mahallati Rayeni, Faranak Hosseinzadeh SaljooghiProblem statement: The aim of this study was to compute disaggregate performance measures of universities. The traditional models for Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) type performance measurement are based on thinking about production as a "black box". Inputs are transformed in this box into outputs. One of the drawbacks of these models is the neglect of linking activities. Approach: Network DEA … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 23 Oct 2010 · 7,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConstructing Fuzzy Time Series Model Based on Fuzzy Clustering for a ForecastingAshraf K. Abd Elaal, Hesham A. Hefny, Ashraf H. Abd ElwahabProblem statement: In this study researchers introduced a fuzzy time series model depending on fuzzy clustering to solve the problem in which the membership values are assumed as Song and Chissom model and to increase the performance of fuzzy time series model. Approach: Proposed model employed seven main procedures in time-invariant fuzzy time-series and time-variant fuzzy time series models. In … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 9,748 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Applicability of Landslide Databases for Hazard Management Using Objective and Subjective Models: Australian Geoinformatic CaseM. OwneghProblem statement: In order to assess the applicability of Australian landslide databases as a hazard management support system, current hard and soft literature and data sources were screened. This assessment resulted in the selection of four main data bases including national landslide database (A), Peril Aus ІІ (B), the Cities project (C) and analytical study of Fell (D). Approach: In … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 10,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeavy Metals Analysis and Sediment Quality Values in Urban LakesAboud S. Jumbe, N. NandiniProblem statement: The objective of this research was to evaluate the degree of heavy metal contamination in lakes and the extent to which the sediment quality of the lakes of Bangalore city has deteriorated. Approach: In this study, heavy metals such as Cd, Co, Cu, Cr, Mn, Pb, Ni and Zn in lake bed sediments were analyzed using comparative sediment … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 9,571 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConverting of Matter to Nuclear Energy by AB-GeneratorAlexander BolonkinProblem statement: Researcher offered a new nuclear generator which allowed to convert any matter to nuclear energy in accordance with Einstein equation E = mc2. The method was based upon tapping the energy potential of a Micro Black Hole (MBH) and Hawking radiation created by this MBH. Researcher did not meet the idea and its research in literature to develop … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,626 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBoosting Kernel Discriminative Common Vectors for Face RecognitionC. Lakshmi, M. PonnavaikkoProblem statement: Kernel discriminative common vector (KDCV) was one of the most effective non-linear techniques for feature extraction from high dimensional data including images and text data. Approach: This study presented a new algorithm called Boosting Kernel Discriminative Common Vector (BKDCV) to further improve the overall performance of KDCV by integrating the boosting and KDCV techniques. Results: In BKDCV, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 6,571 accessesView PDFCite
