Speed Optimized Implementation of Ant Colony Optimization Algorithm for Image Edge Detection
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Ant Colony algorithm (ACO) is an approach used to provide a solution to an optimization problem. ACO follows the mechanism adapted by Ants to search for optimal paths by performing combined activity of all ants in the ... -
SPIN Model Checker for MACT
(North Dakota State University, 2013)The SPIN (Simple PROMELA Interpreter) model checker is a verification system used to check high-level models of concurrent systems and improve the overall system’s performance. The SPIN model checker takes the PROMELA model ... -
Stock Price Prediction Using Recurrent Neural Networks
(North Dakota State University, 2018)The stock market is generally very unpredictable in nature. There are many factors that might be responsible to determine the price of a particular stock such as the market trend, supply and demand ratio, global economy, ... -
Study of Similarity Coefficients Using MapReduce Programming Model
(North Dakota State University, 2013)MapReduce is a programming model for processing and generating large data sets. Users specify a map function that processes a key/value pair to generate a set of intermediate key/value pairs, and a reduce function that ... -
A Survey on Trust Management in Cloud Computing
(North Dakota State University, 2016)Nowadays the number of people that outsource their data to the cloud increases dramatically. Cloud computing offer cost-effective dynamic, scalable and shared services for enterprises from remote data centre. However, the ... -
Taxonomy of Gestures in Human Computer Interaction
(North Dakota State University, 2013)Classification of gestures is important in the area of gestural interaction given the diversity, the complexity and the spontaneity of the gestures in different HCI application domains. Gesture designers for interactive ... -
Teaching Encryption: A Learning Theory Approach
(North Dakota State University, 2010)Bloom's taxonomy for cognitive domain is an effective taxonomy for structured learning. The six levels in Bloom's taxonomy for cognitive domain are based on the levels of difficulty. This paper focuses on teaching ... -
Teaching Software Testing Concepts Using Learning Objects
(North Dakota State University, 2017)The ubiquitous nature of software, it is very important to prepare students for jobs in the software industry. There is a profound deficiency in testing skills in graduating students when beginning jobs in Information ... -
A Technique to Detect a Black Hole in Ad Hoc Networks
(North Dakota State University, 2010)Mobile Ad Hoc Networks (MANETs) are important because they are widely used in war zones, rescue missions and other civilian applications where it is almost impossible to use any other networks. MANETs are temporary ... -
Text Mail - On Demand Email to SMS Service
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Short Messaging Service (SMS)-based mobile information services have become increasingly common around the world, especially among users with low-end mobile devices. This paper presents the design and implementation of ... -
Threat Identification from Access Logs Using Elastic Stack
(North Dakota State University, 2020)Access log management is an essential part of cybersecurity. Lack of insight into user authentication patterns can hinder readiness and reaction to the growing threat of cyberattacks. Central Authentication Service (CAS) ... -
Towards Providing Test Case Meta-Data to Assist Dynamic Regression Test Scheduling
(North Dakota State University, 2013)Autonomic software is typically characterized by dynamic adaptation, a self-management process in which the system adds, removes, and replaces its own components at runtime. At the end of maintenance, the modified software ... -
A Tutorial Approach for Teaching Database Concepts
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Experts in the education and psychology fields have undertaken immense research in order to find better learning approaches. Educators, teachers, cognitive psychologists, and researchers eventually accepted and developed ... -
Tutorial on Negative Selection Algorithm
(North Dakota State University, 2013)The primary aim of this paper is to incorporate the educational objectives of the revised Bloom’s taxonomy in the creation of educational material and assessments for teaching the concepts of the Negative Selection Algorithm. ... -
Understanding Human Errors to Improve Requirements Quality
(North Dakota State University, 2018)Requirements engineering is the first and perhaps the most important phase of software life cycle. Software faults committed during the requirements development, if left undetected can affect downstream activities. While ... -
An Unmanned Air Vehicle Simulator in C#
(North Dakota State University, 2013)Simian is an agent based legacy simulator developed in Java used to develop scenarios involving unmanned air vehicles. The goal of this paper is to host the Simian simulator on a C# platform and also to extend the currently ... -
A User Interface Prototype of Test Support As-A-Service
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Cloud computing provides software as a service over the internet. With the increasing popularity of cloud applications, the development of error-free cloud-based applications that function reliably is necessary. Software ... -
Using Learning Styles of Software Professionals to Improve Their Inspection Performance: An Empirical Study
(North Dakota State University, 2016)In the IT industry, good requirements specification plays a vital role in software projects success. Researches revealed that early detection of faults in a requirements document saves significant amount of rework. To ... -
