Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Burr X Nadarajah Haghighi Distribution: Statistical Properties and Application to the Exceedances of Flood Peaks DataHisham A.H. Elsayed, Haitham M. YousofIn this study, new version from the Nadarajah Haghighi model is proposed. The introduced model has a failure rate function that may change in different directions. Statistical properties of the new density function are derived along with the analysis of variance, Skewness and Kurtosis. Parameter estimates are obtained by the method of maximum likelihood. Illustration of real data set was … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 14 Jul 2019 · 7,132 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Dual Exponentiated Weibull ModelMona Mustafa ElbielyA new lifetime model with various shapes of the hazard rate function for modeling uni-modal and bimodal data sets is introduced and studied along with its statistical properties. Before using the maximum likelihood method for estimating the unknown model parameters, we assessed its performance via a simulation study. The flexibility of the new model is illustrated via plots of the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 29 Jun 2019 · 6,511 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNovel Scheme for Enhancing Storage Management and Performance and Saving Energy of Mobile Cloud ComputingAli A. Yassin, Abdulla J. Yassin, Abdullah Mohammed Rashid, Ahmed A. AlkadhmaweeModern industries for smart mobile devices, such as smartphones, provide end users with interactive features that consider network accessibility, computation performance, storage usage, energy saving and limited battery resources. The combination of cloud and mobile computing capabilities has introduced a new technology called Mobile Cloud Computing (MCC), which has extended smartphones and modern mobile devices beyond their core capacities. Many … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 5 · 9 May 2019 · 7,871 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMetaheuristic Algorithms for Independent Task Scheduling in Symmetric and Asymmetric Cloud Computing EnvironmentNagwan M. Abdel Samee, Sara Sayed Ahmed, Rania Ahmed Abdel Azeem Abul SeoudCloud Computing (CC) is a recent technology in the Information and Communication Technology (ICT) field. It provides an on-demand access to the shared pool of resources via virtualization. Large enterprises move toward CC due to its flexibility and scalability driven from its elastic pay-per-use model. To provide ensured efficient performance to users, tasks should be efficiently mapped to available resources. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 3 May 2019 · 7,649 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Extension of the Lomax Distribution with Statistical Properties and Applications to Failure and Service Times Data SetsMohamed K.A. RefaieIn this work, we introduce and study a new alternative Lomax model. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the unknown model parameters. We show empirically the importance and wide flexibility of the new model in modeling two types of failure times data sets. The new model is much better than the gamma Lomax, exponentiated Lomax, beta Lomax and … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 2 Feb 2019 · 7,570 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Extension of the Burr Type XII DistributionMohamed K.A. RefaieIn this study, a new Burr XII distribution is defined and studied. Various structural mathematical properties of the proposed model are investigated. The maximum likelihood method is used to estimate the model parameters. We assess the performance of the MLEs of the new distribution with respect to sample size n. The assessment was based on a simulation study. The new … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 3 Jan 2019 · 6,744 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReal Time Object Tracking and Protection: Hybrid Logistics Architecture in Ubiquitous Environments (HLAiUE)Abdul Jawwad Patel, Abeer Alsadoon, P.W.C. Prasad, A. ElchouemiRealtime object security and vehicle tracking have not been successfully implemented in commercial vehicles due to limitations in processing large amount of data and hardware capabilities. This paper aimed to improve the object security, processing power and data storage in a distributed environment. The proposed system (HLAiUE) consists of a three-layer architecture, first layer is used to collect data, second … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 8 · 17 Oct 2018 · 7,520 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractResearch Ethics and Overseas Fieldwork: Are Ethics Committees Oblivious of Cultural Differences?Jones Adu-GyamfiResearch ethics committees have come under increasing criticisms either for been toothless or too fierce. This has mainly come about as a result of the gap in theoretical expectations of research ethics and the experienced realities during fieldwork. In particular, ethics committees incur the displeasure of international students who undertake studies in their own sociocultural contexts. This paper presents a … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 16 Mar 2018 · 7,551 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model of the Relationship between BGP Convergence Delay and Network TopologiesYahia Hasan JazyahBGP is a distant vector inters Autonomous System (AS) routing protocol that comes up after EGP to eliminate the inefficiency of EGP with respect to flexibility and scalability and to give support of an actual routing protocol. BGP handles the scalability problem using Classless Inter-Domain Routing (CIDR) and solves the inefficiency of EGP by accumulating all the possible route information … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 1 Jan 2018 · 9,248 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrison Perimeter Surveillance System Using WSNShereen Ismail, Eman Alkhader, Amal AhmadThe aim of this paper is to introduce a prison hybrid surveillance system using two main technologies; Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs). The system consists of three tiers; Wireless Underground Sensor Network (WUSN) in tier 0, Wireless Ground Sensor Network (WGSN) in tier 1 and Wireless Vision Sensor Network (WVSN) in tier 2 that consists of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 4 Dec 2017 · 7,586 accessesView PDFCite
