Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArtificial Neural System for Packet FilteringM. I. Buhari, M. H. Habaebi, B. M. AliIn this study, we analyzed the use of neural network for packet filtering. The neural network system was designed in eight ways with input to the neural network in the form of either access rules or optimized access rules or binary form of access rules or representing wildcards as 0 and 255, or combination of them. These trained neural networks … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,992 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigating Text Input Methods for Mobile PhonesBarry O, Kevin Curran, Derek WoodsHuman Computer Interaction is a primary factor in the success or failure of any device but if an objective view is taken of the current mobile phone market you would be forgiven for thinking usability was secondary to aesthetics. Many phone manufacturers modify the design of phones to be different than the competition and to target fashion trends, usually at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,958 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Model for the CD4 Cell Counts in an HIV/AIDS Patient and its Application in Treatment InterventionsRichard O. Simwa, Joseph Y.T. MugishaThe number of CD4 white blood cells has been established as an important clinical marker of disease progression to acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS) for persons infected with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). The number of CD4 cells per unit volume is expected to decrease with time since infection by the virus. However on introduction of treatment interventions, the process is expected … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,842 accessesView PDFCite
