Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasuring the Relevance of Trajectory Matching and Profile Matching in the Context of Carpooling Computational SystemsMichael Cruz, Hendrik Macedo, Adolfo GuimarãesCarpooling consists of sharing individual vehicle space among people with comparable trajectories. Although there are some software initiatives to help carpooling practice, none of them really implements features similarly to searching for people with similar trajectories and profile. In this study, we propose an innovative approach to generate clusters of users that share similar trajectories and profile for carpooling purposes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 3 Feb 2018 · 8,133 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPaving the Way for Warehouse Centralization in Healthcare: A Preliminary Assessment ApproachAnna Corinna Cagliano, Sabrina Grimaldi, Carlo RafeleCentralized logistics management is currently one interesting option for healthcare systems facing an increasing need to improve responsiveness and service quality while reducing costs. This work focuses on one aspect of centralized logistics, namely warehouse centralization and proposes a preliminary approach to assess material management in healthcare institutions as a first step towards decisions about the implementation of such a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 5 · 5 May 2016 · 7,919 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeneral Linear Models in a Missing Outcome Environment of Clinical Trials Incorporating with Splines for Time-Invariant Continuous AdjustmentMinjeong Park, Dejian Lai, Xianglin L. Du et al.Missing data is a common occurrence in longitudinal studies of health care research. Although many studies have shown the potential usefulness of current missing analyses, e.g., (1) Complete Case (CC) analysis; (2) imputation methods such as Last Observation Carried Forward (LOCF), multiple imputations, Expectation-Maximization algorithm approach; and (3) methods using all available data such as linear mixed model and generalized … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 18 Aug 2015 · 7,402 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Interconnect Structure for Elmore Delay Model with Resistance-Capacitance-Conductance SchemeUma Ramadass, Krishnappriya, Jebashini Ponnian, P. DhavachelvanIn this brief, we present a simple close-form delay estimate, based on first and second order moments that handle arbitrary voltages and conductance effects for a lumped and distributed line. This proposed model introduces a simple tractable delay formula by incorporating conductance (G) into Resistance, Capacitance (RC) network by preserving the characteristics of the Elmore delay model. The RCG model … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Jul 2013 · 7,054 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Extraction and Classification of Blood Cells Using Artificial Neural NetworkMagudeeswaran Veluchamy, Karthikeyan Perumal, Thirumurugan PonuchamyProblem statement: One method of evaluating the clinical status is counting of cell types based on features that it contains. There is a need for a rapid, reproducible method, superior to human inspection and for the classification of cells. For solving these problems, quantitative digital-image analysis is applied and a novel method for classifications of affected blood cells from normal … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 18 Feb 2012 · 8,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLinear Protection Schemes Analysis in Scattered Placement Fiber-To-The Home-Passive Optical Network Using Customer Access Protection Unit SolutionMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Siti Asma Che Aziz, Kasmiran JumariProblem statement: This study highlights on restoration scheme proposed against failure in working line at the drop region for Fiber-To-The Home (FTTH) with a Passive Optical Network (PON). Whereas PON is a system that brings optical fiber cable and signals all or most of the way to the end user. Approach: Survivability scheme against failure is focused on scattered residence … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 26 Oct 2011 · 7,354 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimation of Non-Residential Building Energy ConsumptionYongzhi Gao, Weijun Gao, Ji Xuan, Yutaka TonookaProblem statement: China’s energy consumption is increasing with a high-speed in recent years. Especially since building energy consumption caught pubic eyes and became a crucial problem of society, it forced the public to make estimation in order to reduce energy consumption efficiently. However, it is very difficult to analyze a non-residential building accurately due to China’s statistical collection system and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Relationship between Credit Market Development and Economic GrowthAntonios AdamopoulosProblem statement: This study investigated the relationship between credit market development and economic growth for Spain for the period 1976-2007 using a Vector Error Correction Model (VECM). Questions were raised whether economic growth spurs credit market development taking into account the negative effect of inflation rate and investments on credit market development. This study aimed to investigate the short-run and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,703 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Approach to Compute Integral TransformsA. Adawi, F. AwawdehIntegral transforms find special applicability within scientific and mathematical disciplines. A powerful and efficient homotopy methodology in evaluating integrals arises in integral transforms was presented. The method depends on solving a related first order linear differential equation by homotopy analysis method HAM. The Laplace transform, Fourier transform and the moment generating function of the standard normal distribution were used as … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,718 accessesView PDFCite
