    • Using Message Queuing to Drive Polyglot Identity and Access Management Development 

      Frovarp, Richard Ernest Orvin (North Dakota State University, 2017)
      This paper describes a method of using an Advanced Message Queuing Protocol (AMQP) broker, RabbitMQ in particular, to facilitate the management of accounts across a variety of systems. Higher education poses a unique ...

    • Implementation of Weighted Centroid Neural Network for Edge Preserving Image Compression 

      Depa, Amarender Reddy (North Dakota State University, 2017)
      Image compression is a type of data compression applied to images. The objective of image compression is to reduce the cost for storage or transmission. Image compression is associated with removing redundant information ...

    • A Java Class Analysis Program Development By ASM Library 

      Qiu, Chengxiang (North Dakota State University, 2017)
      Class analysis is useful technique that can be used in many situations, from the syntaxes parsing, potential bugs finding, and unused code detecting to reverse engineer coding. In this paper, I write a small program classasm ...

    • Chemical Compound Classification Ensemble 

      Zhu, Ya (North Dakota State University, 2013)
      In the research of health science, scientists often need to screen numerous chemical compounds to find drugs that can treat a disease. The process of testing the functionality of these compounds in the laboratory is very ...

    • Injecting Safety-Critical Certification Into Agile Software Methods 

      Minot, Scott James (North Dakota State University, 2013)
      Agility offers an adaptable and changeable environment within software development. The benefits that agile methods provide for software development are becoming an even greater possibility in safety-critical software ...

    • Vector-Vector Patterns for Agricultural Data 

      Momsen, Eric (North Dakota State University, 2013)
      Agriculture is increasingly driven by massive data, and some challenges are not covered by existing statistics, machine learning, or data mining techniques. Many crops are characterized not only by yield but also by quality ...

    • Usability Construct for Mobile Applications: A Clustering based Approach 

      Kotala, Pratap (North Dakota State University, 2015)
      The growth of mobile applications that run on cell phones and other handheld devices has introduced a broad range of usability challenges that were not faced by the web and standalone PC environments. The current usability ...
