Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordIMPLEMENTATION AND EVALUATION OF IMAGE PROCESSING TECHNIQUES ON A VISION NAVIGATION LINE FOLLOWER ROBOTWalaa E. Elhady, Heba A. Elnemr, Gamal SelimIn a fast growing industrial world, carriers are required to carry products from one manufacturing plant to another which are usually in different buildings or separate blocks. This study intends to automate this sector using vision controlled mobile robots instead of laying railway tracks which are both expensive and inconvenient. To achieve this purpose an autonomous robot with computer vision … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 1 Feb 2014 · 7,746 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordQUANTITATIVE EVALUATION OF JOB AND RESOURCES FOR BETTER SELECTION TO IMPROVE MAKESPAN IN GRID SCHEDULINGKrishnamoorthy Natarajan, Asokan Ramasamy, Sangeetha SubramanianThis study presents the Priority based ranking of jobs and resources to improve the Makespan in the grid scheduling problem. Grid environment’s effectiveness largely depends on scheduler’s effectiveness/efficiency as they act as local resource brokers. The scheduler is responsible to select resources/scheduling jobs so that users/application requirements are met regarding overall execution time (throughput) and the resources use cost. The … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 4 Jan 2014 · 6,554 accessesView PDFCite
