Fuzzy prediction for failed back surgery syndrome
(
Taylor and Francis Ltd.
, 2010 , Article)
In this article a new strategy is presented that can be used by neurophysicians, neurosurgeons, and orthopedic surgeons to predict patients' health after an operative procedure on the vertebral column just by analyzing the ...
Performance analysis of best relay selection scheme for amplify-and-forward cooperative networks in identical Nakagami-m channels
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
In cooperative communication networks, the use of multiple relays between the source and the destination was proposed to increase the diversity gain. Since the source and all the relays must transmit on orthogonal channels, ...
Inhibiting corrosion of n-GaAs by cetylpyridinium chloride for stabilised photoelectochemical cell
(
Maney Publishing
, 2010 , Article)
The cationic surfactant cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) provides photocorrosion inhibition to the GaAs surface when CPC is chemisorbed on the GaAs surface from aqueous acidic electrolytes at concentrations of CPC lower than ...
Adsorption and desorption equilibria of nitrogen, methane, ethane, and ethylene on date-pit activated carbon
(
American Chemical Society
, 2010 , Article)
Date pits were used to produce a highly porous activated carbon. The resulting date-pit activated carbon was used in a volumetric adsorption apparatus to measure the vapor-phase adsorption and desorption of nitrogen, ...
Interest-determining web browser
(2010 , Conference Paper)
This paper investigates the application of data-mining techniques on a user's browsing history for the purpose of determining the user's interests. More specifically, a system is outlined that attempts to determine certain ...
Investigation of the use of TiO2 doped with metal ions in water disinfection
(
IWA Publishing
, 2010 , Article)
This research was conducted to improve titanium dioxide by transition metal doping using cooper. Sol gel method was used to prepare metal doped TiO 2. Titanium isopropoxide and commercial TiO2 P25 were employed as catalyst ...
A signal combining technique based on channel shortening for cooperative sensor networks
(
IEEE
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
The cooperative relaying process needs proper coordination among the communicating and the relaying nodes. This coordination and the required capabilities may not be available in some wireless systems, e.g. wireless sensor ...
Preparing and educating the Arab Qatari engineer of 2030
(
American Society for Engineering Education
, 2010 , Conference Paper)
This paper addresses the issue of adapting Engineering Education to a changing situation in Qatar, a small country that is part of the Arab Gulf Cooperation Council. It presents the framework for a national project planned ...
A hybridized genetic algorithm for cost estimation in bridge maintenance systems
(2010 , Conference Paper)
A hybridized genetic algorithm is proposed to determine a repair schedule for a network of bridges. The schedule aims for the lowest overall cost while maintaining each bridge at satisfactory quality conditions. Appreciation, ...
Security-aware service composition for end users of small enterprises
(
IOS Press
, 2010 , Article)
This paper focuses on the service composition based on security properties of services from an end user perspective. End users are usually not expert in computer security, but expert users of computer software. They typically ...
