Bayesian Approach for Detection Classification
(North Dakota State University, 2011)The objective of this paper is to develop and test a software system that uses incomplete information from a collection of sensors to classify different objects present in a particular area with a pre-specified probability. ... -
Maximizing Sensor Coverage using Displacement to Remove Overlaps
(North Dakota State University, 2011)Sensor networks are wireless networks with small, low-cost sensors which collect and disseminate environmental data. They are used for monitoring and controlling physical environments from remote locations with better ... -
Genetic Search for Multi School Routing
(North Dakota State University, 2011)In genetic search for multi school routing, a set of commonly shared school buses and vans with capacity, travel speed and travel time limitations are used to service students from their pick up locations to their ... -
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 ... -
Document Management System
(North Dakota State University, 2012)The debate of using paper documents over computer documents has been a long topic of interest, there has been a lot of research done on the topic. Also, experiments have been done to evaluate the performance of users working ... -
Modeling of Consumer Responses to Dynamic Pricing in a Smart Grid
(North Dakota State University, 2012)This paper models the responses of three different types of consumers based on their sensitivity to dynamic price. Simulated household demand data is used to model the dynamic price of electricity. These prices are then ... -
Application of the Kusumoto Cost-Metric to Evaluate the Cost-Effectiveness of Software Inspections
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Inspection and testing are two widely recommended techniques for software quality improvement with a common goal of defect detection and removal in software products. While testing cannot be conducted until software is ... -
Comparison of Particle Swarm Optimization Variants
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Particle swarm optimization (PSO) is a heuristic global optimization method, which is based on swarm intelligence. It is inspired by the research on the bird and fish flock movement behavior. The algorithm is widely used ... -
Deterministic Greedy Algorithms for Optimal Sensor Placement
(North Dakota State University, 2012)A sensor is a device which can be sensitive to any physical stimulus, such as light, heat, or a particular motion, and responds with a respective impulse. A graph is an abstract representation for a set of objects of any ... -
Capacitated Transshipment Models for Predicting Signaling Pathways
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Signal transduction is a process of transmitting signals for controlling biological responses. The protein-protein interaction (PPI) data, containing signal transduction proteins, can be considered as a bi-directional, ... -
Assessment and Recommendation of Requirement Management Tool Based on User Needs
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Over recent years, requirement management has played a very vital role in materializing IT projects. Whether it is the healthcare sector, finance sector, banking sector, or any other industrial sector, requirement management ... -
A Package Tracking Application Based On Software Agents
(North Dakota State University, 2012)JADE (Java Agent Development Framework) is a software environment, which is fully developed in the Java language. It supports multi-agent systems using an extensible agent model and predefined program classes. This software ... -
Software Inspection Team Formation Based on the Learning Style of Individual Inspectors
(North Dakota State University, 2012)To improve the software quality, researchers have focused their effort on developing and validating effective methods of finding and fixing defects early in the development process. Software inspections are most widely ... -
Energy Data Analyzer System
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Analyzing the electrical energy load and pricing data is important to make informed decisions about energy needs and regulations. Data from over a decade are publicly available online for many Independent System Operators ... -
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 ... -
Mining Association Rules in Cloud
(North Dakota State University, 2012)The association rule mining was implemented in Hadoop. An association rule mining helps in finding relation between the items or item sets in the given data. The performance of the algorithm was evaluated by testing it in ... -
Social and Ethical Dimensions of Electronic Medical Records
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Electronic Medical Records are a digital or computerized medical record created in an organization which delivers care as part of a health information system that allows the storage, retrieval, and modification of records. ... -
Semantics-Enhanced Privacy Recommendation for Social Networking Sites
(North Dakota State University, 2012)Privacy protection is a vital issue for safe social interactions within social networking sites (SNS). Although SNSs such as MySpace and Facebook allow users to configure their privacy settings, the task is difficult ... -
