Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating Plant Species Suitability for a Substrate-Free Tropical Green RoofBruno R. Silva, André Mantovani, Dulce G. Mantuano et al.Greenroofs reduce building exterior-interior thermal flux and mitigate high internal air temperatures, especially in tropical climates. Tropical greenroofs are given little attention and their use remains restricted to a very low percentage of roofs due to high costs compared to traditional roofs, weight overload (mainly due to the chosen substrate) and potential waterproofing problems. We here present an alternative greenroof … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 18, Issue 4 · 11 Oct 2018 · 7,523 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMULTI SCALE TIME SERIES PREDICTION FOR INTRUSION DETECTIONG. Palanivel, K. DuraiswamyWe propose an anomaly-based network intrusion detection system, which analyzes traffic features to detect anomalies. The proposed system can be used both in online as well as off-line mode for detecting deviations from the expected behavior. Although our approach uses network packet or flow data, it is general enough to be adaptable for use with any other network variable, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 27 Jun 2014 · 6,776 accessesView PDFCite
