Author:	ADIL YOUSIF, 1ABDUL HANAN ABDULLAH, SULAIMAN MOHD NOR, ADIL ALI ABDELAZIZ
Source:	Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology pp 155 - 164 Vol 33. No. 2 -- 2011
Abstract	Scheduling jobs on computational grids is identified as NP-complete problem due to the heterogeneity of resources; the resources belong to different administrative domains and apply different management policies. This paper presents a novel metaheuristics method based on Firefly Algorithm (FA) for scheduling jobs on grid computing. The proposed method is to dynamically create an optimal schedule to complete the jobs within minimum makespan. The proposed method is compared with other heuristic methods using simple and different simulation scenarios. The results show that, the firefly scheduling mechanism is more efficient than Min-Min and Max-Min heuristics in many scheduling scenarios.

Source:	Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology pp 177 - 183 Vol 33. No. 2 -- 2011
Abstract	Energy efficiency in the wireless sensor networks is the major factor which determines its usability in applications like military surveillance, environmental monitoring, and health care monitoring. Improving Energy efficiency through evolutionary computing algorithms is the latest research phenomena for wireless groups all around the world. Mostly, due to the dense deployment of sensor motes in a monitoring area redundant data will be given to the sink nodes. In the recent works done in this NP-hard problem routing activity is only concentrated much to conserve the energy within the network. Here in our proposed work genetics operators are applied in such a way to reduce the redundant information to the sink station and conserve its energy reserves.

Author:	A.B. MUTIARA, R.REFIANTI, RACHMANSYAH
Source:	Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology pp 184 - 192 Vol 33. No. 2 -- 2011
Abstract	The paper presents a broadband micro-strip patch antenna for wireless communication. In its most basic form, a micro-strip patch antenna consists of a radiating patch on one side of a dielectric substrate which has a ground plane on the other side. The patch is generally made of conducting material such as copper or gold and can take any possible shape. A rectangular patch is used as the main radiator. There are several advantages of this type of broadband antenna, such as planar, small in size, simple in structure, low in cost, and easy to be fabricated, thus attractive for practical applications. This rectangular micro-strip patch antenna is designed for wireless communication application that works at 2.4 GHz with gain 11 dB for outdoor place. It also has a wide angle of beam in its radiation pattern. The results obtain that micro-strip patch antenna can be used as client antenna in computer and workable antenna for wireless fidelity.

Title:	IMPROVING EFFICIENCY OF TEXTUAL STATIC WEB CONTENT MINING USING CLUSTERING TECHNIQUES
Author:	R. MANIKANDAN
Source:	Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology pp 193 - 196 Vol 33. No. 2 -- 2011
Abstract	There are several efficient methods for the discovery or mining of various types of data, methods devised for mining textual static web content have always been proved less efficient due to the data's ambiguous , unclassified, unstructured or un-clustered nature. Various association rule mining algorithms like Generalized pattern algorithm are being implemented to mine the web content but again due to the above setbacks the efficiency expected from the algorithm is not obtained. Since the dip in the efficiency of these algorithms is amounted to the nature of the textual web content, an algorithm which may deal with , if not all the anomalies at least the un-clustered nature of the content may increase the efficiency drastically. This paper emphasizes the same point, making the assumptions that the web content is static and there is at least one common pattern found in the given datasets.

Title:	MAMMOGRAM CLASSIFICATION USING MAXIMUM DIFFERENCE FEATURE SELECTION METHOD
Author:	R.NITHYA, B.SANTHI
Source:	Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology pp 197 - 204 Vol 33. No. 2 -- 2011
Abstract	This paper developed a CAD (Computer Aided Diagnosis) system based on neural network and a proposed feature selection method. The proposed feature selection method is Maximum Difference Feature Selection (MDFS). Digital mammography is reliable method for early detection of breast cancer. The most important step in breast cancer diagnosis is feature selection. Computer automated feature selection is reliable and also it helps to improve the classification accuracy. GLCM (Gray Level Co-occurrence Matrix) features are extracted from the mammogram. The extracted features are selected based on a proposed MDFS method. Experiments have been conducted on datasets from DDSM (Digital database for Screening Mammography) database. Several feature selection methods are available. The accuracy of the model depends on the relevant feature selection. The proposed MDFS method selects only essential features and eliminates the irrelevant features. The experiment results show that neural network based model with proposed feature selection method improved the classification accuracy.

Source:	Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology pp 227 - 238 Vol 33. No. 2 -- 2011
Abstract	The design of this new power supply uses a HV single phase leakage flux transformer supplying two cells, composed each one of a capacitor and a diode, which multiplies the voltage and stabilizes the current. Each cell supplies in turn a single magnetron. This paper treats firstly, a new modeling of this transformer with shunts of HV power for N=2 magnetrons. This model is based on the determination of analytical expressions of nonlinear storable inductances, from the fitting of the magnetization curve B(H) of the material used. The resulting model will be implemented for the first time under MATLAB-SIMULINK® tool where we compare the results from this model to those obtained from the old model validated by EMTP. In a second step, using the programming tool MATLAB, we discussed an optimization strategy of this new HV power supply for the microwave generators with N=2 magnetrons, to envisage the possibility of obtaining gains in section, space, and weight, and to reduce the transformer cost, and therefore that of all the installation, while respecting the conditions recommended by the constructor: Ipeak < 1.2 A, Imean ≈ 300 mA.

Abstract	In ad hoc networks, each node is connected instantaneously, wireless without a central control. Its challenge lies with dynamic topology and limited battery energy. Its instant infrastructure poses a greater dispute in routing. Since the medium is wireless and no central control, there are lots of chances of attack by intruders. The impact of hackers attack and the process to overcome from those attacks have been discussed. The consequence made by the hackers is analyzed in terms of packet loss, throughput and delay. At the same time, the performance is also measured after overcoming from the attack process. The analysis and performance are done using ns2 tool.

Title:	SELECTING THE RIGHT STAKEHOLDERS FOR REQUIREMENTS ELICITATION: A SYSTEMATIC APPROACH
Author:	ROZILAWATI RAZALI, FARES ANWAR
Source:	Journal of Theoretical and Applied Information Technology pp 250 - 257 Vol 33. No. 2 -- 2011
Abstract	Requirements elicitation is the most critical phase in software development as it captures the required functionality of a software system. The elicitation process is indeed resource intensive. It involves a number of dedicated stakeholders who are deliberately gathered to confer and stipulate software requirements. The effectiveness of the process is greatly influenced by the credibility and suitability of the stakeholders involved. Correct and complete requirements could only be achieved if they are gathered from the right stakeholders. Therefore, there is a need of systematic approach that could help in identifying and choosing the appropriate stakeholders. As stakeholder participation can be enormous, the approach should also embrace prioritization. This study addresses this issue by collating important elements that contribute to an effective selection of stakeholders for requirement elicitation purposes. The elements were identified through reviews of related work, which were analyzed by using content analysis. The elements were then integrated as a conceptual framework that consists of a step-by-step procedure. The framework can be used by practitioners to execute the selection process. To researchers, the study proposes several mechanisms to support the approach as a guide for future research.

Abstract	Increase in demand of electricity for entire applications in any country, need to produce consistently with advanced protection system. Many special protection systems are available based on volume of power distributed and often the load changes without prediction required an advanced and special communication based systems to control the electrical parameters of the generation. Most of the existing systems are reliable on various applications but not perfect for electrical applications. Electrical environment will have lots of disturbance in nature, Due to natural disasters like storms, cyclones or heavy rains transmission and distribution lines may lead to damage. The electrical wire may cut and fall on ground, this leads to very harmful for human beings and may become fatal. So, a rigid, reliable and robust communications like GSM technology instead of many communication techniques used earlier. This enhances speed of communication with distance independency. This technology saves human life from this electrical danger by providing the fault detection and automatically stops the electricity to the damaged line and also conveys the message to the electricity board to clear the fault. An Embedded based hardware design is developed and must acquire data from electrical sensing system. A powerful GSM networking is designed to send data from a network to other network. Any change in parameters of transmission is sensed to protect the entire transmission and distribution.
