Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordTheoretical Context of the Nuclear Posture ReviewTimothy Sands, Richard Mihalik, Harold CamachoThe very recently published 2018 American Nuclear Posture Review hails the revived emphasis on deployed, low-yield nuclear options to reserve credible deterrence against countries that have transmitted beliefs the U.S. would not respond to employment of non-strategic nuclear weapons, since there is a mistaken perception that the U.S. could only respond with high-yield strategic weapons, which would be deemed unacceptable. … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 30 Mar 2018 · 8,076 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDesign and Development of an Ergonomic Milling Machine Control Knob using TRIZ PrinciplesPoh Kiat Ng, Kian Siong JeeTRIZ, a Russian abbreviation known as the Theory of Inventive Problem Solving, refers to a methodology for problem-solving rooted in logic and data rather than intuition. It promotes the ability to solve problems creatively. Using TRIZ tools for problem-solving such as the cause-effect-chain analysis and engineering contradiction, a new ergonomic milling machine control knob was developed for improved musculoskeletal comfort. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 28 Apr 2016 · 7,787 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordGraph Representation for Secondary System of Pressurized Water Reactor with Autocatalytic Set ApproachAzmirul Ashaari, Tahir Ahmad, Mustaffa Shamsuddin et al.The pace of nuclear reactor development in increasing and this is caused by the high authoritative ordinance of electricity from the end users. Furthermore, maintaining and controlling nuclear reactor operation are high priorities due to safety reasons. The aim of this paper is to describe the secondary system of Pressurized Water Reactor (PWR) system by using graph. Furthermore, fuzzy graph … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 30 Dec 2015 · 7,062 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDevelopment of a New Elliptic Curve Cryptosystem with Factoring ProblemE. S. Ismail, M. S. HijaziProblem statement: The security of elliptic curve cryptosystems are based on elliptic curve discrete logarithm problem (ECDLP). However, if an attacker finds a solution to ECDLP, the elliptic curve-based systems will no longer be secure. Approach: To improve this, we develop a new elliptic curve cryptosystem using one of the old/novel problem in computational number theory; factoring problem (FAC). Specifically, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 2 Aug 2012 · 6,788 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordPractitioner and Faculty Perspectives on the Career Preparation Of Entry-Level Public AccountantsKathryn Simms, Enrique ZapateroEntry-level public accountants in the U.S. must satisfy a litany of historically unparalleled requirements and demands. This unique set of challenges calls forth new questions about how effectively entry-level accountants are navigating the divide between their conceptual educations and the practical rigors of public practice. To examine these questions, we relied on qualitative analysis predicated on a theoretical framework of … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 18 Jun 2012 · 7,606 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordModeling Tourist Arrivals in Destination Countries: An Application to Australian TourismS. A.H. Shobeiri Nejad, Gurudeo Anand TularamProblem statement: Little study is evident of mathematical modeling regarding tourist arrivals in South East Queensland of Australia. In this study the Bulter conceptual destination life cycle and product life cycle frameworks are used to develop an overall determinant mathematical model of Australian tourist arrivals. The model will be calibrated using real Australian data. A more complex dynamic is also … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,915 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDesign and Development of Decision Making System Using Fuzzy Analytic Hierarchy ProcessChin Wen Cheong, Lee Hua Jie, Mak Chee Meng, Amy Lim Hui LanThis article aims to develop a fuzzy Multicriteria Decision Making (MCDM) tool that equips with Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) framework to help users in semi-structured and unstructured decision making tasks. The tool provides portability and adaptability features by deploying the software on web platform. In addition, this system provides an integrated domain reference channel via a database connection to assist … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,197 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordThe Voice of Exit - Towards a Theory of Democratic InconsistencyMarco GoliThe international armed conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan are only the most apparent manifestation of the dilemmas that challenge the European liberal democracy. A much more crucial paradox, as far as certain European countries are concerned, is produced by the inertia of the democratic game it self. That is the construction of religious and ethnic affiliation as the very entrance … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,742 accessesView PDFCite
