Application of Simulation and Optimization Approaches in Supply-Constrained Innovation Diffusion

Negahban, Ashkan (2016-05-06)

When introducing a new product, firms face a hierarchy of decisions at the strategic and operational levels including capacity sizing, time to market or starting sales, initial inventory required by the product's release ...

Assessment of Multiple MapReduce Strategies for Fast Analytics of Small Files

Zhou, Fang (2015-05-05)

Hadoop, an open-source implementation of MapReduce, is used widely because of its ease of programming, scalability, and availability. Hadoop distributed file system (HDFS) and Hadoop MapReduce are two important components ...

Business Rules Discovery in Web Application through Process Mining

Alkofahi, Hamza (2020-07-20)

Advances in information technologies have allowed businesses to deliver their services to new markets that did not exist before, especially in fields such as e-commerce, healthcare, e-education, and cloud services. Web ...

Cogent: A Coherence-Driven Cognitive Agent Modeling and Simulation Framework

Sivaraj, Sunit (2018-04-16)

Agent based modeling is an effective methodology for understanding complex cognitive systems through generative mechanisms that explain emergent behavior. However, most agent modeling languages use general-purpose imperative ...

Collective Creativity in Scientific Communities

Zou, Guangyu (2009-06-11)

Innovation is the driving force of personal growth, national wealth and social progress. Significant attention has been given to advancing cyber infrastructures, but little is known about their factors, as well as their ...

ColorScape: A Creative Artificial Ecosystem Model of Communication and Collective Creativity in Global Participatory Science

Zou, Guangyu (2012-01-31)

With the increasing use of cyberinfrastructure and popularity of e-Science initiatives, science is becoming truly globalized, reducing barriers to entry and enabling formation of open and global networked innovation ...

Comparative Study of Sentiment Detection Techniques for Business Analytics

Avery, Heather (2015-12-14)

As the amount of data proliferates, businesses are faced with a plethora of decision support opportunities and often times lack a prescribed set of techniques to speed up or even handle analysis opportunities. The primary ...

Dynamic Task Scheduling onto Heterogeneous Machines Using Support Vector Machine

Park, Yong (2008-05-15)

Distributed computing has been used to overcome the limitations of single computer use. However, the benefit of parallelizing computations may substantially reduce, if there is no well constructed mechanism to coordinate ...

Energy Aware Task Scheduling on Heterogeneous Systems

Farouk Abdel Kader, Rabab (2007-12-15)

We consider the problem of scheduling directed a-cyclic task graphs (DAG) on heterogeneous distributed processor systems with the twin objectives of minimizing finish time and energy consumption. Previous scheduling ...

Enhancing Host Based Intrusion Detection Systems with Danger Theory of Artificial Immune Systems

Amer, Suhair (2008-05-15)

Rather than discriminating activity by belonging to self or non-self, danger theory extends its discrimination to be between non-self but harmless and self but harmful. The danger theory states that the system does not ...

Exploring the Impact of Socio-technical Communication Styles on the Robustness and Innovation Potential of Global Participatory Science

Ozmen, Ozgur (2013-04-15)

Emerging cyber-infrastructure tools are enabling scientists to transparently codevelop, share, and communicate in real-time diverse forms of knowledge artifacts. In this research, these collaborative environments are ...
