Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleOptimizing Empty Containers Distribution among PortsMohammed A. Hajeeh, Weam BehbehaniProblem statement: Empty containers are an essential part of the logistics of the movement, repositioning and distribution of containers. Optimizing the allocation and transportation of empty containers contributes significantly in reducing cost. Approach: A mathematical model is formulated with the objective of finding an optimal sequence of ships movement among ports in order to satisfy demands at the ports with … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 18 Jul 2011 · 7,371 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMarketing Strategies in Port Industry: An Exploratory Study and a Research AgendaAngelos M. Pantouvakis, C.I. Chlomoudis, Athanasios G. DimasProblem statement: Market globalization increases demand and the competition between firms. Ports as basic figurative nodes cannot remain separate from this change. Technological improvements, the increased demand of marine transports, the demand for new, bigger and more specialized vessels, has increased the competition among ports. Approach: In this competitive environment business mistakes may be proved fatal and marketing strategies arise … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,730 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Mathematical Model of Power System with Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor in Long Transmission LinePrechanon KumkratugProblem statement: It is becoming increasingly important to fully utilize the existing transmission system assets due to environmental legislation, rights-of-way issues and costs of construction and deregulation policies that introduced in recent years. The Thyristor Controlled Series Capacitor (TCSC) has been proposed for the better control power flow and dynamic performance. The exact long transmission line model consists of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 27 Feb 2012 · 6,833 accessesView PDF Cite

Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating Common Reconnaissance Tools and Techniques for Information GatheringIsaac Odun-Ayo, Emmanuel Owoka, Otavie Okuoyo et al.A reconnaissance attack is a commonly overlooked step in penetration testing but a critical step that could help increase the effectiveness of an attack on a target. However, it is a common attack faced by companies and institutions, among others. It enables the attacker or penetration tester to gain valuable information on the target and select the best tools and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 2 · 16 Mar 2022 · 7,805 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of a Developed Dispersion Model to Port of BrisbaneSanaz Jahangiri, Natalia Nikolova, Kiril TenekedjievThe emissions from vessels utilising heavy fuel oil include large amounts of nitrogen oxides, sulphur dioxide and particulate matter, presenting significant health risks to people living near ports. To determine the effect of these emissions on human health, complex atmospheric dispersion modelling using CALPUFF assesses ground-level concentrations at receptors surrounding the sources. This paper demonstrates the application of the methodology … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 4 · 12 Oct 2018 · 8,359 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Six-Port Reflectometer Calibration Using Wilkinson Power DividerTraii Moubarek, Ali GharsallahA new calibration method for a six-port reflectometer which minimizes the effect of power measurement errors is presented. It is based on the power divider correlator to obtain estimates of the six-port calibration constants. The calibration procedure is to determine the constants that govern the operation of the six-port from the measurement of power or output ports tensions by placing … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 17 Mar 2016 · 7,798 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA COMBINED LOW LATENCY AND WEIGHTED FAIR QUEUING BASED SCHEDULING OF AN INPUT-QUEUED SWITCHK. Bommanna Raja, D. RaghupathikumarInput queuing has become dominant and popular building blocks for high speed crossbar switches with many ports and fast line rates because they require minimum speed-up of memory bandwidth. Input Queued switches with finite Virtual Output Queues guarantees QoS performance in terms of throughput and average delay. A switch performs two functions Queuing and Scheduling. Queue Management algorithm manages the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 25 Mar 2014 · 7,226 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResearch Proposal: An Intrusion Detection System Alert Reduction and Assessment Framework Based on Data MiningKarim Al-Saedi, Selvakumar Manickam, Sureswaran Ramadass et al.The Intrusion Detection System (IDS) generates huge amounts of alerts that are mostly false positives. The abundance of false positive alerts makes it difficult for the security analyst to identify successful attacks and to take remedial actions. Such alerts to have not been classified in accordance with their degree of threats. They further need to be processed to ascertain the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 8 May 2013 · 7,709 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Spring Design as Return Cycle of Two Stroke Spark Ignition Linear Engine on the Combustion Process and PerformanceA. Z.M. Fathallah, R. A. BakarProblem statements: The effects of optimization on spring design of the linear engine with spring mechanism in its performance and combustion process have been examined. However, at certain conditions the engine can not work properly as predicted. This can happen because displacement of engine stroke is depending on thrust forces of combustion process in cylinder of the engine. For that, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,512 accessesView PDF Cite
