Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Proposed Framework for Reducing Electricity Consumption in Smart Homes using Big Data AnalyticsMira Tamer Shaker, Ayman E. Khedr, Sherif KholeifSmart homes with smart technologies can provide better insights into saving energy and improving the quality of our life. All connected appliances are Internet of Things (IoT) devices that support applications inside a smart home which produce an amount of data that shows what households are doing during their daily life. IoT and Big Data Analytics (BDA) became the most … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 26 Apr 2019 · 8,100 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeveloping an Integrated Method for Optimal Design of Chilled Water Plants in HVAC SystemsNabil Nassif, Nihal Al Raees, Fouad Al Rifaie, Taher Abu-LebdehBuildings account for a large portion of energy use in the US. Many those buildings have equipped with central plants to produce chilled water supplied to central air handling units. The chilled water plant design can have a significant impact on building energy uses and costs. In this paper, an integrated method for optimal design of chilled water plants is … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 6 Feb 2019 · 6,586 accessesView PDFCite
InvestigationOpen accessIn the abstractDeveloping a System of Organic Farming Technologies to Obtain Environmentally Clean Agricultural Products (Organic Food) in the Steppe Zone of the Kostanai RegionAlmabek Batyrzhanovich Nugmanov, Yuriy Valerievich Tulayev, Saniya Abiltaevna Tulkubayeva, Svetlana Vladimirovna SomovaThe goal of the research is to study the opportunity to produce environmentally clean agricultural products (organic food) under the conditions of the Kostanai Region. The researches were made in two crop rotations: cereal laying fallow, two-field crop rotation (1 – biologized fallow – mustard, 2 – wheat) and cereal laying fallow, two-field crop rotation (1 – biologized fallow – … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 23 Dec 2017 · 7,391 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of a Moving Car Based on Invariant MomentsAbdul Monem Rahma, Nabaa Basil AbdThis paper presents a proposed technique based on Invariant Moments to detect moving cars in front of Autonomous Cars in order to increase safety and reduce road accidents, thus saving lives, which are one of the most important matters in the context of Autonomous Cars. Object detection from a sequence of images is preparatory step but a crucial mission for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 3 · 20 Nov 2017 · 7,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeighted Integration Route to Stiffness Matrix of Quadrilaterals for Speed, Accuracy and Functionally Graded Material ApplicationSubramanian G., P.V. JeyakarthikeyanA weighted integration route with robust one-point integration (hourglass-controlled) is proposed as efficient, time saving alternative to Gauss quadrature for stiffness matrix of bilinear quadrilaterals. One-point rule relies on sampling at the center of the element to linearize the geometric transformation and average the material property over it. This enables, for a given element, explicit integration of stiffness matrix yielding … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 4 · 27 Sep 2017 · 8,050 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost-Effective Energy Refurbishment of Health Care Facilities in Heating Dominated Climates of Italian Backcountry. The Case Study of the Hospital Veneziale of IserniaRosa Francesca De Masi, Fabrizio Ascione, Gennaro Sosto, Giuseppe Peter VanoliMaximizing energy efficiency within hospitals and healthcare facilities is a major challenge for sustainable development and energy saving objectives. In this study, the case study of the public hospital of Isernia (Italian backcountry city) is proposed, being typical of the hospital building stock developed in reinforced concrete all around Italy in the last 40 years. Starting from deep on-site investigations, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 25 Sep 2017 · 8,352 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDPSA: Deterministic Parallel Search Algorithm in Large DatabaseSami Qawasmeh, Arwa ZabianThe main goal of parallel processing is to reduce the complexity of finding a solution for a problem. In this study, we consider the problem of searching for multiple items at the same time in a large database. We propose a parallel search algorithm that reduces the searching time in comparison to binary search algorithm saving in that the time … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 6 Sep 2017 · 7,190 accessesView PDFCite
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 PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Implementation of Security in Healthcare Cloud ComputingMolamoganyi Gorata, Adamu Murtala Zungeru, Mmoloki Mangwala, Joseph ChumaAs technology keeps on evolving, different organisations make use of the recent trends in technology and the health sector is no exception. As the cost of healthcare services is increasing, healthcare professionals are becoming scarce. Healthcare organisations have also adopted the latest technology of cloud computing. The introduction of cloud computing has proved to be a feasible idea on the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 11 Apr 2017 · 7,893 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects. Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
