Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Petri Net Based Agent Behavioral TestingZina Houhamdi, Belkacem AthamenaIn Multi-Agent System (MAS), developers concentrate on creating design models and evolving them, from higher level models to lower level models, in several steps. Considerable part of MAS implementations is automatically produced from the design models. If a design model contains faults, they are passed to the generated implementations. Practical model validation techniques are required to discover and delete faults … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 10 Sep 2012 · 6,682 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOpen Source Programmers' Information Seeking During Software MaintenanceKhaironi Yatim Sharif, Mohd Rosmadi Mokhtar, Jim BuckleyProblem statement: Several authors have proposed information seeking as an appropriate case study for studying software maintenance and evolution that have provided empirical classifications of information seeking in commercial software evolution settings. Approach: However, there is minimal research in the literature describing the information seeking behavior of Open Source programmers, even though Open Source contexts would seem to exacerbate the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 30 Jun 2011 · 8,146 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorpus-Based Analysis on Cross-Domain Experiments in Classification-and-Ranking GenerationAida Mustapha, Md. Nasir Sulaiman, Ramlan Mahmod, Mohd. Hasan SelamatProblem statement: Overgeneration-and-ranking architecture works well in written language where sentence is the basic unit. However, in spoken language where utterance is the basic unit, the disadvantage becomes critical as spoken language also render intentions, hence short strings may be of equivalent impact. Approach: In classification-and-ranking, response was deliberately chosen from dialogue corpus rather than wholly generated, such that it … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 11 · 23 Oct 2010 · 7,097 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGuerrilla Marketing Communication Tools and Ethical Problems in Guerilla AdvertisingCanan Ay, Pinar Aytekin, Sinan NardaliProblem statement: Companies attempt to reach private worlds of consumers and give them memorable experience with their brands by using guerrilla marketing tools. Guerrilla advertising, which is one of the guerrilla marketing tools, usually attracts the attention of consumers but sometimes irritates and annoys the consumers and even breaks the law. Approach: The study determined these ethical aspects by evaluating … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 22,513 accessesView PDFCite

Ahmad et al.Problem statement: Development of mathematical models based on set of observed data plays a crucial role to describe and predict any phenomena in science, engineering and economics. Therefore, the main purpose of this study was to compare the efficiency of Arithmetic Mean (AM), Geometric Mean (GM) and Explicit Group (EG) iterative methods to solve system of linear equations via estimation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 8,138 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReducing Broadcast Overhead Using Clustering Based Broadcast Mechanism in Mobile Ad Hoc NetworkN. Karthikeyan, V. Palanisamy, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: Network wide broadcasting is an important function in Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANET), which attempts to deliver packets from a source node to all other nodes in the network. Broadcasting is often very useful for route discovery, naming, addressing and helping multicast operations in all kinds of networks. For designing broadcast protocols for ad hoc networks, one of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 7,031 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Relationship between Exclusive-Or and the Unique Existential QuantifierM. A. Nabulsi, A. M. AbdallaProblem Statement: The efficiency of computer architecture design is affected by the components used. Establishing a relationship between exclusive-or (XOR) and the unique existential quantifier provides alternative system implementations. Approach: Applications of XOR and the unique existential quantifier were explained. Then, prepositional logic was used to establish the relationship between them. Results: Different quantified assertions with two variables that use … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,471 accessesView PDFCite
