Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReliability Evaluation of Distributed Computer Systems Subject to Imperfect Coverage and Dependent Common-Cause FailuresLiudong Xing, Akhilesh ShresthaImperfect coverage (IPC) occurs when a malicious component failure causes extensive damage due to inadequate fault detection, fault location or fault recovery. Common-cause failures (CCF) are multiple dependent component failures within a system due to a shared root cause. Both imperfect coverage and common-cause failures can exist in distributed computer systems and can contribute significantly to the overall system unreliability. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 28 Sep 2006 · 6,838 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinancial Development and Economic Growth in Nepal: New intuitions from a Time Series Causality MethodUttam Paudel, Satish Chandra Bhatta, Umesh KhatriGeneralized empirical evidences about impact and direction of causality between financial development and economic growth ignoring the differences of structure and other factors seem less effective to understand the contributions of financial as well as real sector development to economic growth by country specific factors in Nepal. This paper has established the short run or long run relationship and the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2018 · 8,474 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Artificial Neural Network Point Forecasting Models and Prediction Intervals for Solar Irradiance EstimationAntônio Fabrício Guimarães de Sousa, Helaine Cristina Moraes Furtado, Wilson Negrão Macêdo, Anderson Alvarenga de Moura MenesesAn accurate knowledge on solar irradiance prediction is particularly required for proper development and planning of Photovoltaic (PV) energy systems. The main purpose of the present research is to assess the accuracy of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) short-term forecast of univariate solar irradiance time series, with conventional point prediction and Prediction Intervals (PIs), comparing models. The Lower Upper Bound Estimation … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 17 Jul 2020 · 7,440 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuilding Energy Modeling Using Artificial Neural NetworksMaya Arida, Nabil Nassif, Rand Talib, Taher Abu-LebdehAccurate modeling of total building energy is now vital to reduce energy consumption. This is especially true for buildings since they are considered as the largest energy consumer in the United States. This paper investigates modeling methods for building energy-systems using non-linear auto-regression artificial neural networks. The proposed model can forecast the whole building energy consumptions given the four input … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 6 Jun 2017 · 7,125 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBeyond Accidents: A Back-Analysis on Conveyor Belt Injury for a Better Design for Maintenance OperationsAlberto Martinetti, Leo A.M. van Dongen, Raffaele RomanoThe conveyor belt represents one of the most commonly used methods of transporting bulk materials today. As highlighted multiple times in research, the moving parts are a critical issue causing accidents and injuries and several of these are strictly related to the opportunity to enter in working zones during maintenance activities, considered high-risk activity due to the nature of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 29 Dec 2016 · 8,455 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASCORBIC ACID FOLIIAR SPRAY COUNTERACTING EFFECT OF SALINITY ON GROWTH, NUTRIENTS CONCENTRATIONS, PHOTOSYNTHESIS, ANTIOXIDANT ACTIVITIES AND LIPID PEROXIDATION OF BEAN (PHASEULUS VULGARIS L.) CULTIVARSZeinab A. Salama, El-Zanaty A.A. Abou El-Nour, Mohamed M. El Fouly, Alaa A. GaafarA water culture experiment was carried out in the Department of Fertilization Technology at National Research Centre, Cairo, Egypt, to investigate the effect of Ascorbic Acid (AsA) foliar application and salinity stress (100 ppm and 100 mmoL NaCl) on growth, nutrients concentration and some biochemical parameters of two kidney bean (Phaseulus Vulgaris L.) cultivars. Salinity caused significant reduction in growth … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 16 May 2014 · 7,900 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA USER PROTECTION MODEL FOR THE TRUSTED COMPUTING ENVIRONMENTMarwan Ibrahim Alshar’e, Rossilawati Sulaiman, Mohd Rosmadi Mukhtar, Abdullah Mohd ZinInformation security presents a huge challenge for both individuals and organizations. The Trusted Computing Group (TCG) has introduced the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) as a solution to end-users to ensure their privacy and confidentiality. TPM has the role of being the root of trust for systems and users by providing protected storage that is accessible only within TPM and thus, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 15 Apr 2014 · 7,324 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING PHOSPHORUS NUTRITION OF CORNWalter B. Gordon, Larry Murphy, Pawel WiatrakPhosphorus (P) generally occurs in soils as the anions H2PO4- or HPO4-2 depending on soil pH. These anions readily react with soil cations such as calcium, magnesium, iron and aluminum to produce various phosphate compounds of very limited water solubility. Crop recovery of applied phosphate fertilizer can be quite low during the season of application. In addition, the large amounts … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,446 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractManganese Uptake By Facultative and Obligate Wetland Plants Under Laboratory ConditionsA. E. Ghaly, A. Snow, M. KamalThe effect of initial concentrations of manganese on the overall removal efficiency of Mn by wool grass, soft rush, broad leaved cattail and soft stem bulrush plants was investigated under laboratory conditions. The translocation of Mn in the roots, stems, leaves and flowers of each plant species was determined and the fraction of Mn removed by precipitation was calculated.
