Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultivariable Proportional Integral Controllers for Multi-Inputs-Multi-Outputs Desalination System Fed by a Photovoltaic GeneratorAbderrahmen Ben Chaabene, Anis SellamiProcess control is an essential part of the desalination industry that requires for driving at the optimum operating conditions an increase in the life time of the plant and reduction of the unit product cost. The desalination is a highly complex process, so that the majority of dynamic models are of the form of Multi-Inputs-Multi-Outputs (MIMO) systems. Problem statement: Driving … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Adaptive Updating Topic Specific Web Search System Using T-GraphAhmed PatelProblem statement: The main goal of a Web crawler is to collect documents that are relevant to a given topic in which the search engine specializes. These topic specific search systems typically take the whole document's content in predicting the importance of an unvisited link. But current research had proven that the document's content pointed to by an unvisited link … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 6,597 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAsymmetry Effect of Inflation on Inflation Uncertainty in Iran: Using from EGARCH Model, 1959-2009Dahmardeh Nazar, Pourshahabi Farshid, Khani Zade Amiri MojtabaProblem statement: In this study, we tried to examine the relationship between inflation and inflation uncertainty in Iran, because of considerable variation in its inflation rate. Approach: Inflation uncertainty is the major cost of high inflation that can influence the decision making of economic agents. Results: This study constructed a time series of seasonally inflation uncertainty in Iran from 1959-2009 … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,684 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Binary Method for Scalar Multiplication in Elliptic Curve CryptographyM. A. Mohamed, M.R. Md Said, K.A. Mohd Atan, Z. Ahmad ZulkarnainProblem statement: Until recently, many addition chain techniques constructed to support scalar multiplication operation have been proposed tailored to limited computational resources. In securing the efficiency of ECC point operation, the combinations of the two basic operations, point addition and doubling are mostly implemented. Using binary method, the operation of doubling depends solely on the length of binary representation itself, … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,712 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Control Technique Applied in Dynamic Voltage Restorer for Voltage Sag MitigationRosli Omar, Nasrudin Abd Rahim, Marizan SulaimanThe Dynamic Voltage Restorer (DVR) was a power electronics device that was able to compensate voltage sags on critical loads dynamically. The DVR consists of VSC, injection transformers, passive filters and energy storage (lead acid battery). By injecting an appropriate voltage, the DVR restores a voltage waveform and ensures constant load voltage. There were so many types of the control … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,141 accessesView PDFCite
