Measuring medical students' professional competencies in a problem-based curriculum: A reliability study
(
BioMed Central Ltd.
, 2019 , Article)
Identification and assessment of professional competencies for medical students is challenging. We have recently developed an instrument for assessing the essential professional competencies for medical students in ...
An asymmetrical six phase induction machine for flywheel energy storage drive systems
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2014 , Conference Paper)
Energy storage systems have become an essential part of power utilities due to their capability of providing high level of power quality and stability. Flywheel energy storage systems (FESSs) are now employed with numerous ...
Confidence intervals for the two-parameter exponential reliability with type II censored data
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2016 , Article)
We consider interval estimation of the reliability of the two-parameter exponential distribution.We consider asymptotic intervals, Bayesian, as well as intervals based on the generalized pivot variable. Transformations to ...
The relationship between evidence characteristics and audit efficiency and effectiveness: Evidence from Middle Eastern countries
(
Inderscience Enterprises Ltd.
, 2019 , Article)
This paper investigates the relationship between three evidence characteristics (namely, sufficiency, reliability, relevance) and audit quality. We employ a multi-method approach that is broken down into two tools; ...
A Reliability-Aware Network Service Chain Provisioning with Delay Guarantees in NFV-Enabled Enterprise Datacenter Networks
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2017 , Article)
Traditionally, service-specific network functions (NFs) (e.g., Firewall, intrusion detection system, etc.) are executed by installation-and maintenance-costly hardware middleboxes that are deployed within a datacenter ...
Switchless power decoupling and switchless leakage current elimination in grid-tied inverters
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2018 , Conference Paper)
This paper presents a grid-tied single-phase transformerless inverter that eliminates simultaneously the leakage current issue and the double grid frequency power pulsation without additional active circuitry. The control ...
Random number of units for K-out-of-n systems
(
Elsevier
, 2017 , Article)
This paper takes up the reliability and preventive replacement problems for a K-out-of-n system, where K is a stochastic parameter provided. Firstly, we consider the case when K is predefined as constant numbers as is done ...
Channel Aware and Queue Aware Scheduling in LTE Uplink
(
SpringerLink
, 2012 , Conference Paper)
Long Term Evolution (LTE) uses single carrier frequency division multiple access (SCFDMA) technique as the multiple access scheme in the uplink, due to its low peak to average power ratio (PAPR) compared to orthogonal ...
Achieving energy efficiency in data centers with a performance-guaranteed power aware routing
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2017 , Article)
Nowadays, data centers are designed to offer the highest performance in case of high traffic load and peak utilisation of the network. However, in a realistic data center environment, the peak capacity of the network is ...
Efficient collaborative spectrum sensing under the smart primary user emulation attacker network
(
Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc.
, 2015 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, collaborative spectrum sensing to detect random signals corrupted by Gaussian noise in the presence of Primary User Emulation Attackers (PUEAs) is studied. We consider smart PUEAs which aims at increasing ...
