Ecophysiology of Limonium axillare and Avicennia marina from the coastline of Arabian Gulf-Qatar
(
Springer Science + Business Media B.V.
, 2008 , Article)
Attention is being focused on the coastline from Doha to Ras Laffan in Qatar since higher activities in the development of land and establishment of roads, highways and new buildings and houses is not coupled by serious ...
Fuzzy Expert System for Defect Classification for Non-Destructive Evaluation of Petroleum Pipes
(
IEEE
, 2007 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, an expert system has been outlined to classify the defects in metallic petroleum pipelines using acoustic techniques with non-destructive evaluation (NDE) protocols, the proposed system maps the quantitative ...
Stability of membrane fouling particles under perikinetic and orthokinetic flow conditions
(
Elsevier B.V.
, 2004 , Article)
Stability of fouling particles against Brownian motion (perikinetic) and simple shear flow (orthokinetic) was investigated. The effect of the various parameters such as particle radius, Hamaker constant, salt (1-1 type) ...
Using an outcome-based approach to assess computing programs
(
ACM New York, NY, USA
, 2007 , Poster)
In this poster, the author provides a pictorial demonstration of the elements associated with assessment and its relationship to the newly developed requirements by accrediting agencies in various countries. The presentation ...
Performance and stability analysis of multilevel data structures with deferred reorganization
(
IEEE
, 2002 , Article)
We develop a methodology for analyzing the performance and stability of a server that maintains a multilevel data structure to service a set of access operations for (key, value) records. A subset of the operations executed ...
Failed Back Surgery Syndrome (FBSS) Prediction using Fuzzy Inference System (FIS)
(
IEEE
, 2007 , Article)
In this paper a fuzzy inference system (FIS) is presented to predict the level of risk for a class of patients to be needing a repeated surgery for the herniated lumber disc (or more commonly known as slipped disc). The ...
On hybrid-fuzzy classifier design: An empirical modeling scenario for corrosion detection in gas pipelines
(
IEEE
, 2008 , Conference Paper)
In this paper, a customized Fuzzy Inference System is presented to classify the corrosion and distinguish it from the geometric defects or normal state of the steel pipes used in gas/petroleum industry. The presented ...
Distributed turbo coding using log-likelihood thresholding for cooperative communications
(
IEEE
, 2009 , Article)
In cooperative communications, error propagation at relays reduces the diversity order of the system. To combat that effect, we present a novel technique to control error propagation at the relays, which is presented in ...
Knockout mice: Is it just genetics? Effect of enriched housing on fibulin-4+/- mice
(
Public Library of Science
, 2007 , Article)
Background. Fibulin-4 is an extracellular matrix protein expressed by vascular smooth muscle cells that is essential for maintaining arterial integrity. Fibulin-4-/- mice die just before birth due to arterial hemorrhage, ...
The Scientific Contributions of Arab Scientists to the International Research: a Study of the Indicators for Select Arab Countries
(
Blackwell Publishing Ltd
, 2009 , Article)
Using SCOPUS database, the research productivity of Arab researchers in five countries has been investigated. The analysis included subject, geographical and time range indicators. The relationship between the most published ...
