Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA New Software Quality Model for Evaluating COTS ComponentsAdnan Rawashdeh, Bassem MatalkahStudies show that COTS-based (Commercial off the shelf) systems that are being built recently are exceeding 40% of the total developed software systems. Therefore, a model that ensures quality characteristics of such systems becomes a necessity. Among the most critical processes in COTS-based systems are the evaluation and selection of the COTS components. There are several existing quality models used … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 11,421 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Plant Leaf Diseases Using K‒mean++ Intermeans Thresholding AlgorithmKittipol Wisaeng, Worawat Sa–NgiamviboolIn the field of agricultural information, the plant leaf disease detection is highly important for both farmer life and environment. To improve the accuracy of plant leaf disease detection and reduce the image processing time, the improved K‒mean++ clustering and intermeans thresholding method are proposed in this study. The proposed algorithms are used for training and testing diseases in plant … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 16, Issue 9 · 21 Sep 2020 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Total Ionizing Dose on Bipolar Junction TransistorChee Fuei Pien, Haider F. Abdul Amir, Saafie Salleh, Azali MuhammadProblem statement: The amount of ionizing radiation that Bipolar Junction Transistor (BJT) devices encounter during their lifecycle degrades both of their functional and electrical parameter performances. The different radiation environments either in space, high energy physics experiments, nuclear environment or fabrication process as well as for standard terrestrial operation possess an impact on the devices. Approach: In this research, analytical … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,311 accessesView PDFCite
