Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePressure-sensitivity Effects on Toughness Measurements of Compact Tension Specimens for Strain-hardening SolidsAbdulhamid A. Al-AbduljabbarThe path-independent J-integral is used as a fracture prediction criterion for loading beyond the elastic limit as Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM) cannot be applied. While J was originally defined from an energy perspective, it was demonstrated that it could be inferred from load-displacement diagrams. Therefore, the Compact Tension (CT) specimen testing is used to compute J for materials. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,660 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTrace Metals Co-Toxicity in Hard Body Structures of Liza klunzingeri (Mugilidae: Perciformes) Mullet FishA.H. Bu-Olayan, B.V. Thomas, S.M.H. Al-HusainiThe possibility of inorganic pollutants causing stress to the marine ecosystem instigated us to conduct eco-toxicological tests on the predominant trace metals (Cu, Zn, Pb and V) in commercial important fish. Among the four metals, V had the lowest observed effect concentration (LOEC: LC15) at 6.3 µg L-1. Toxicity tests (96 h) using Multi factor Probit analysis revealed V (6.3 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,515 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Secure Key Authentication Scheme Based on the Hardness of Solving Elliptic Curve Discrete Logarithm ProblemIzzmier Izzuddin Zulkepli, Eddie Shahril IsmailA key authentication scheme is a scheme that protects a user’s public key from modification and counterfeiting by an adversary. The new development and improvement of key authentication schemes should be made continuously so that the systems are safe and practical to be used. To the best of our knowledge, there is no key authentication using the elliptic curve so … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 5 · 15 May 2020 · 7,438 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImpacts of Application Usage and Local Hardware on the Throughput of Computer Networks with Desktop VirtualizationVitor Chaves De Oliveira, Alexandre De Assis Mota, Lia Toledo Moreira MotaCurrently, virtualization solutions are employed in the vast majority of organizations around the world. The reasons for this are the benefits gained by the approach, focusing on increases in security, availability and data integrity. These privileges are also present in a new technique, which emerges from this same concept and is called desktop virtualization. This method, compelled by these advantages, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 28 Jan 2013 · 7,122 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleVerifying Complex Interaction between Hardware ProcessesKiran Ramineni, Shireesh Verma, Ian G. HarrisProblem statement: Verification of correct functionality of semiconductor devices has been a challenging problem. Given the device fabrication cost, it is critical to verify the expected functionality using simulations of executable device models before a device manufactured. However, typical industrial scale devices today involve large number of interactions between their components. Complexity of verifying all interactions becomes almost intractable even … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 6,956 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleLow Power Hardware Implementation of High Speed FFT CoreM. Kannan, S. K. SrivatsaApplications based on Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) such as signal and image processing require high computational power. This paper proposes the implementation of radix-4 based parallel-pipelined Fast Fourier Transform processor which incorporates a low power commutator, butter-fly with multiplier-less architecture. The proposed parallel pipelined architectures have the advantages of high throughput and low power consumption. The multiplier-less architecture uses shift … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,231 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHardware Design of Wireless Physical Token Ring System for Mobile and Cell CommunicationNidal F. Shilbayeh, Mahmoud Z. IskandaraniA wireless network system based on an infrared and Laser scanning Physical Token Ring architecture (W-PTRS) was designed, built and tested successfully. The network provides a different way of utilizing the concept of a token ring network but with a higher efficiency related to the speed of data transfer and the ability to parallel process client-server requests leading to a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2004 · 6,792 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEfficient Simulator Based on Meta-Heuristic for FMS and AGV Systems Design and ControlSlim Ben Saoud, Amel Jaoua, Narjès Bellamine-Ben SaoudFlexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) based on Automated Guided Vehicles (AGV) have emerged as highly competitive manufacturing technologies of the last decade. However, their design and control are complex tasks since the decision problems related to the different system parameters such as sizing and scheduling are usually shown as NP-hard. Nowadays, computer simulation is one of the most commonly used methods … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 1 Dec 2020 · 5,954 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsAn Adaptive Machine Learning Algorithm for Resilient Higher-Order Mutant GenerationSubhasish Mohanty, Jyotirmaya Mishra, Sudhir Kumar Mohapatra et al.In the field of software engineering, ensuring the reliability androbustness of software is paramount, and software testing plays a criticalrole in this process. Mutation testing, a fault-based technique, evaluates theeffectiveness of test suites by introducing artificial defects, known asmutants, into programs. This research presents a novel method forgenerating higher-order mutants (HOMs) using the Chemical ReactionOptimization (CRO) algorithm, which enhances the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 5 · 20 May 2025 · 8,255 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSegmentation of Exudates via Color-based K-means Clustering and Statistical-based ThresholdingAtef Zaki Ghalwash, Aliaa Abdel-Halim Youssif, Ali Mohamed Nabil AllamThis paper provides a novel approach for the problem of detecting the yellowish lesions in the eye fundus images, such as hard and soft exudates, in a fully-automated manner. To solve this problem of segmenting exudates automatically, the fundus image was first converted into the L*a*b* color space to decouple the chromaticity information of the image. Next, the fundus image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 14 Oct 2017 · 7,729 accessesView PDFCite
