The amount of information available today is extremely large. The increasing need for easier and faster information discovery demands optimal information retrieval techniques. A measure of performance of any ...

The artificial intelligence (AI) domain grows every day with new algorithms and architectures. Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs), a branch of AI has become a very interesting domain since the eighties when the back-propagation ...

There has been tremendous growth in the amount of user generated content on the Internet. This is due to rise in social networks and the embrace of web 2.0 or technologies. The Internet is no longer a place for consumption ...

Research in computer vision and machine learning is a significant part of research in computer science departments of many leading institutions resulting in ideas and products that have direct applications in different ...

Internet connectivity is one of the fundamental requirements for a successful mobile learning environment. However, within the context of Africa, availability and access, let alone cost, still pose a great challenge in ...

In this thesis, we implemented Point Distribution Model and basic Active Shape Model algorithm and contributed this to the AUST Computer Vision and Machine Learning code library. We applied the Active Shape Model to ...

We attempt the design and development of an educational game based on the Input-Process-Outcome model. This tool helps students and other professionals to learn and appreciate the decision-making processes carried out by ...

We propose a framework for formal analysis of DEVS Driven Modeling Language (DDML) models in order to assess and evaluate the properties of DDML models. This framework semantically maps the hierarchical levels of DDML: ...

DEVS models are implemented in various programming languages using various strategies. There is a scientific need to couple these models for larger simulations. Therefore there is a need for interoperability between these ...

A Hybrid Cloud refers to a cloud computing environment that provides pay-as-you-go services to users using the integration of public and private clouds resources. Cloud computing is one of the latest areas in the field of ...

In different parts of the world especially African and Asian continents, students attend classes and taught in groups using the same method of teaching applied to all students irrespective of whether or not they have the ...

C-DEVS is a formalism for modeling and analysis of discrete event systems. It refers to the original formalism defined by Zeigler in 1976. While the simulation algorithms are well defined, their implementation is a challenge ...

The usage of computers in Physics Instruction began in the seventies and ever since then, lots of research efforts have been devoted to studying various emerging technologies and their impact on the learning process. ...

We present Automated Code Synthesis for Modeling and Simulation, a MDA [1] approach to Modeling and Simulation with DEVS [2] formalism. The DEVS-Driven Modeling Language (DDML) [3] has been defined to ease simulation ...

We propose DEVS-Driven Modeling Language (DDML), a graphical notation for DEVS [1] modeling and an Eclipse-based graphical editor, Eclipse-DDML. DDML attempts to bridge the gap between expert modelers and domain experts ...

The hoist scheduling problem is a critical issue in the design and control of many manufacturing processes. When the hoist number and tank numbers are very large, finding an optimal schedule is very hard. As a result of ...
