Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Priority Oriented Scheduling Method to Increase the Reliability of Manufacturing SystemsSeyedehfarzaneh Nojabaei, Z. Leman, S. H. Tang, S. SulaimanScheduling occurs in every organization without considering the nature of its activities. In this regard, numerous scholars have attempted to schedule via divergent methods including classical scheduling, genetic algorithm, neural network and fuzzy logic and so on. Studies in manufacturing scheduling mostly deal with priority rules without any consideration of the system states. An appropriate scheduling leads to significant enhancement … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 31 Jul 2012 · 7,021 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutrition in Tertiary Education: Biological and Social ApproachesG. A. Fragkiadakis, C. Papandreou, K. GkouskouProblem statement: Human Nutrition, a necessary component of health-education, studies the food-depended growth/maintenance of the human body. To approach what nutritionists will need to apply in the 21st century, we searched the literature for new syllabus-fields. Approach: We detected fields likely to play a significant and innovative role in university teaching of Human Nutrition; then tried a synthesis of biological … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 18 Feb 2012 · 8,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Simple Algorithm to Assess the Speed Stability of Induction GeneratorsAlexandre de Assis Mota, Lia Toledo Moreira MotaProblem statement: The speed stability if Induction Generators (IG) can be defined as its ability to remain connected to the electric network, operating at a mechanical speed close to the speed associated to the actual system frequency, after being subjected to a perturbation. This IG behavior is normally studied using dynamical methods that are determined through time-consuming simulations and are … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 13 Jun 2011 · 6,554 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPredicting Insurance Investment: A Factor Analytic ApproachSamuel Obi-Nnamdi Agwuegbo, Adetunji Philip Adewole, A. N. MaduegbunaProblem statement: In the last decade growing attention has been paid to the pattern of investments by the insurance industry and the question of how to evaluate such investments. In an economy where the capital market is huge and active, mathematical considerations come into play in the selection of investments to ensure yield maximisation. Approach: This study examined the use … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Derivative-Free Optimization Method for Solving Classification ProblemParvaneh Shabanzadeh, Malik Abu Hassan, Wah June LeongProblem statement: The aim of data classification is to establish rules for the classification of some observations assuming that we have a database, which includes of at least two classes. There is a training set for each class. Those problems occur in a wide range of human activity. One of the most promising ways to data classification is based on … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,510 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSoft Computing in Optimizing Assembly Lines BalancingMuhammad Zaini Matondang, Muhammad Ikhwan JambakAs part of manufacturing systems, the assembly line has become one of the most valuable researches to accomplish the real world problems related to them. Many efforts have been made to seek the best techniques in optimizing assembly lines. Problem statement: Since it was published by Salveson in 1955, some methods and techniques have been developed based on mathematical modeling. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,472 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAttack of Against Simplified Data Encryption Standard Cipher System Using Neural NetworksKhaled M. Alallayah, Waiel F. Abd El-Wahed, Mohamed Amin, Alaa H. AlhamamiProblem statement: The problem in cryptanalysis can be described as an unknown and the neural networks are ideal tools for black-box system identification. In this study, a mathematical black-box model is developed and system identification techniques are combined with adaptive system techniques, to construct the Neuro-Identifier. Approach: The Neuro-Identifier was discussed as a black-box model to attack the target cipher … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,945 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGroundwater in the Urban Environment: Management Needs and Planning StrategiesStefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaProblem statement: Over the past thirty years urban transformations, such as urbanization, suburbanization, dis-urbanization and re-urbanization processes, have modified the subsurface conditions of Torino (NW Italy). In order to contribute to the solution of the problems concerning groundwater the conceptual model for the groundwater flow system, the schematization of the aquifers boundaries and the estimation of basic hydrogeological parameters are … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
