Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Analysis of Hybrid Tool Estimator: An Integration of Risk with Software EstimationJ. Frank Vijay, C. ManoharanProblem statement: One important problem with software development projects is to get an early and nevertheless accurate estimation of the effort needed to complete the project within the schedule. In the literature various methods have been developed for this purpose. The most popular examples are Boehm’s COCOMO, Albrecht’s Function Point Method or Sneed’s object-point method. The two last named methods … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 11 · 25 Aug 2011 · 6,752 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Approach based on Winter's Model and Weighted Fuzzy Time Series for Forecasting Trend and Seasonal DataSuhartono, Muhammad Hisyam LeeProblem statement: In the literature, the most studied of fuzzy time series for the purpose of forecasting is the first order fuzzy time series model. In this model, only the first lagged variable is used when constructing the first order fuzzy time series model. Therefore, such approaches fail to analyze accurately trend and seasonal time series which is an important … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2011 · 7,942 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoconut Oil Based Hybrid Fuels as Alternative Fuel for Diesel EnginesPranil Singh, Jagjit Khurma, Anirudh SinghProblem statement: The use of vegetable oils as a fuel in diesel engines causes some problems due to their high viscosity compared with diesel. Various techniques and methods are used to solve the problems resulting from high viscosity. Approach: One of the techniques is the preparation of a microemulsion fuel, called a hybrid fuel. In this study, hybrid fuels consisting … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,714 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInformation Hiding: A Generic ApproachRiad jabri, Boran Ibrahim, Hadi Al-ZoubiProblem statement: Privacy and security over communication channels are of primary concerns. Due to their complexity and diversity, there is a need for continuous improvements of the adopted solutions. In this study, we consider two of the adopted ones, namely, steganogrphy and cryptography and propose a new information hiding system. Approach: The proposed system was based on a generic approach … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,833 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInitial Hybrid Method for Analyzing Software Estimation, Benchmarking and Risk Assessment Using Design of SoftwareJ. Frank Vijay, C. ManoharanProblem statement: Estimation models in software engineering are used to predict some important attributes of future entities such as development effort, software reliability and programmers productivity. Among these models, those estimating software effort have motivated considerable research in recent years. Approach: In this study we discussed an available work on the effort estimation methods and also proposed a hybrid method … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 6,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNematic and Smectic Mesophase from Calamitic Bisazobenzene Liquid Crystal: Synthesis and Characterization of 1- Methoxyhexyloxy-4'-(4-Phenylazo) Azobenzene Hybrid MoleculeSidik Silong, Abdulsalam Abubakar Salisu, Muhamad Zaki Ab Rahman et al.A new hybrid calamitic liquid crystal material with rod-shape bisazobenzene moieties as a core has been synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic methods. The mesomorphic properties were investigated by differential scanning colorimetry, polarizing optical microscopy and X-Ray diffraction. The rod-shaped molecule 1- methoxyhexyloxy-4`-(4-phenylazo)azobenzene was prepared by diazotization of 4-phenylazoaniline, coupling with phenol and subsequent etherification of 1-Bromohexyloxy-4`-(4-phenylazo)azobenzene in methanol. The presence … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,980 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAerodynamic Noise Prediction Using stochastic Turbulence ModelingArash Ahmadzadegan, Mehran TadjfarAmongst many approaches to determine the sound propagated from turbulent flows, hybrid methods, in which the turbulent noise source field is computed or modeled separately from the far field calculation, are frequently used. For basic estimation of sound propagation, less computationally intensive methods can be developed using stochastic models of the turbulent fluctuations (turbulent noise source field). A simple and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,223 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Decentralized Load Frequency Control Using HPSO Algorithms in Deregulated Power SystemsSeyed Abbas Taher, Reza Hematti, Ali Abdolalipour, Seyed Hadi TabeiLoad Frequency Control (LFC) is one the most important issues in electrical power system design/operation and is becoming much more significant recently with increasing size, changing structure and complexity in interconnected power systems. In practice LFC systems use simple Proportional-Integral (PI) or Integral (I) controllers. However, since the PI or I control parameters are usually tuned based on classical or … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSugarcane Phenological Date Estimation Using Broad-Band Digital CamerasMobasheri, M. Chahardoli, J. Jokar, M. FarajzadehIn the agricultural industry, precision farming is the most important task that attracts lots of attentions. The health of the plant depends mostly on the amount of water in its access that can be estimated through vegetation indices. These indices can be extracted from satellite images through Image processing algorithms. The objective of this research was to provide an equation … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,959 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApproaches for Categorization of Reusable Software ComponentsParvinder Singh Sandhu, Janpreet Singh, Hardeep SinghReuse repositories manager manages the reusable software components in different categories and needs to find the category of reusable software components.
