Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving Protein Folding Problem using Elitism-Based Compact Genetic AlgorithmAmr Badr, Ibtehal M. Aref, Basma M. Hussien, Yosr EmanProteins are vital components of living cells. A number of diseases such as Alzheimer's, Cystic fibrosis and Mad Cow diseases are shown to result from misfunctioning of proteins. Problem statement: Protein folding problem is the process of predicting the optimal 3D molecular structure of a protein, or tertiary structure, which is an indication of its proper function. Approach: An enhancement … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,861 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Traffic Light Sequence Algorithm Using RFIDKhalid A.S. Al-Khateeb, Jaiz A.Y. Johari, Wajdi F. Al-KhateebProblem statement: Traffic congestion and tidal flow management were recognized as major problems in modern urban areas, which have caused much frustration and loss of man hours. Approach: In order to solve the problem an intelligent RFID traffic control has been developed. It has circumvented or avoided the problems that usually arise with systems such as those, which use image … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 21,778 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved Handwritten Tamil Character Recognition System using Octal GraphR. J. Kannan, R. PrabhakarProblem Statement: Handwriting recognition has attracted voluminous research in recent times. The segmentation and recognition of the characters from handwritten scripts incorporates considerable overhead. Almost all the existing handwritten character recognition techniques use neural network approach, which requires lot of preprocessing and hence accomplishing these problems using neural network is a tedious task. Approach: In this study we propose a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,408 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnimation of Natural Language Specifications of Authentication ProtocolsMabroka A. Mayouf, Zarina ShukurProblem Statement: A few visualization tools have been created for protocol design and analysis. Although these tools provide an environment for designing security protocols, each one has its own protocol definition language (its also called informal specification language). The problem is that the user should understand the language which related to the used tool in order to define an exist … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,736 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Biodiversity Screening for Metal Accumulators from Mineral Ore Rich Site in Andhra Pradesh, IndiaAditya Kumar Sarkar, Susmita Roy, Ananya Pal et al.Problem statement: Since the site selected for screening was a source of magnetite, the objective of this study was to isolate some groups of magnetotactic bacteria and microbes with potential of metal accumulation. Approach: The culture based approach was used for the study. Pure isolates obtained were characterized on the basis of morphology, biochemical tests, physiology as well as at … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,553 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Design of ADAT: A Tool for Assessing Automata-Based AssignmentsZarina Shukur, Nurul Fatihah MohamedThis study describes the design of an automatic assessment system for assessing an automata-based assignment. Automata concept is taught in several undergraduate computing courses such as Theory of Computation, Automata and Formal Languages and Compilers. We take two elements into consideration when assessing the student's answers; static element and dynamic element. The static element involves the number of states (initial … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 7,013 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSNL2Z: Tool for Translating an Informal Structured Software Specification into Formal SpecificationMohamed A. Sullabi, Zarina ShukurIn the area of software engineering there have been very few efforts to automate the translation from specifications written in natural language to the formal specification languages. Writing of the specifications in natural language is always depending on context and it is commonly vagueness; this represents the major reasons of the challenge. This paper discusses the design of a tool … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 7,145 accessesView PDFCite
