Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHiding a Large Amount of Data with High Security Using Steganography AlgorithmNameer N. EL-EmamThis study deals with constructing and implementing new algorithm based on hiding a large amount of data (image, audio, text) file into color BMP image. We have been used adaptive image filtering and adaptive image segmentation with bits replacement on the appropriate pixels. These pixels are selected randomly rather than sequentially by using new concept defined by main cases with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 8,625 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuery Pattern-based Relational Data to XML Data Translation AlgorithmJinhyung Kim, Dongwon Jeong, Doo-Kwon BaikThis paper proposes a new query pattern-based relational schema-to-XML schema translation (QP-T) algorithm to resolve implicit referential integrity issue. Various translation methods have been introduced on structural aspects and/or semantic aspects. However, most of conventional methods consider only explicit referential integrities specified by relational schema. It causes several problems such as incorrect transformation, abnormal relational model transition and so on. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,192 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponsibilities of Graduate Student: The Review of Research Student PoliciesNorhasni Zainal Abiddin, Mel WestThe researcher’s previous study had found that most research students did not fully used their graduate research student policy as point of reference. Objective was to review the contents of the research student policy and the benefits of having systematic policies for the supervision of research students. Total of 40 graduate research student policies had been studied from 40 well … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,044 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSimulation, Design and Construction of High Voltage DC Power Supply at 15 kV Output Using Voltage Multiplier CircuitsN. Mariun, D. Ismail, K. Anayet et al.This study describes the details of high voltage DC power supply whose output voltage is 15 kV. In this study, we review the major aspects of the design of voltage multiplier circuits and constructed a prototype power supply based on simulation, design and implementation of the hardware works in the laboratory. Its simulation works done by using EMTDC PSCAD and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,210 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMesoscopic Damage Based Model for Plane Concrete under Static and Dynamic LoadingsM. Labibzadeh, S. A. SadrnejadThe constitutive equations for the mechanical behavior of concrete capable of seeing damage effects or crack growth procedure under loading/unloading/reloading was developed upon microplane framework. The proposed damage formulation has been built on the basis of five fundamental types of stress/strain combinations, which essentially may occur on any of microplanes. Model verification under different loading/unloading/reloading stress/strain paths has been examined. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,046 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Solution Code for Structural Analysis upon Joint ElementS. A. Sadrnejad, M. LabibzadehThe analysis of large structures mostly requires a complete three dimensional finite element discretization. Stability of such structures includes not only the stability of structure itself but also that of foundation as well as interconnection elements. The general instability of a structure may be affected by two aspects, firstly, an inappropriate preliminary classical design of the structure and inadequate control … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 6,446 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHepatitis, Meningitis and Hydrocephalus Caused by Herpes Simplex Virus Type IMiguel A. Pina, Pedro J. Modrego, F. GalveHerpes simplex virus type is the most frequent cause of sporadic and severe encephalitis in western countries. We report the exceptional case of an immunocompetent man aged 51 and who presented with hepatitis and meningitis by herpes simplex virus. Encephalitis responded to acyclovir but hepatitis did not. The patient developed diffuse hydrocephalus that required the appropriate shunt 20 days after … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,157 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effects of North America Free Trade Agreement on Mexican Environmental Policy (1994-2004)Ningu J. Kenneth, Jorge Torres Jácome, Sonia E.S. Gomez, Pérez ÁvilesThe scope of this study was to analyze the implementation of the environmental policy and the way Mexico has integrated the environmental aspects into a North America Free Trade Agreement (NAFTA). We are aware of the fact that many environmental costs do not necessarily reflect the environmental damage. Environmental costs are often defined by determining either the willingness of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,363 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRedundancy Schemes for High Availability Computer ClustersChristian K. Bassek, Samuel Pierre, Alejandro QuinteroThe primary goal of computer clusters is to improve computing performances by taking advantage of the parallelism they intrinsically provide. Moreover, their use of redundant hardware components enables them to offer high availability services. In this paper, we present an analytical model for analyzing redundancy schemes and their impact on the cluster’s overall performance. Furthermore, several cluster redundancy techniques are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,236 accessesView PDFCite
