The lived experiences of foreign women: Influences on their international working lives
(Wiley, 2017)We explored the lived experiences of foreign-born women to discover influences on their international working lives. Life history narratives were collected in interviews with a sample group of participants (#12) in the ... -
Load Partitioning for Matrix-Matrix Multiplication on a Cluster of CPUGPU Nodes Using the Divisible Load Paradigm
(2016-11)Matrix-matrix multiplication is a component of many numerical algorithms; however, it is a time consuming operation. Sometimes, when the matrix size is huge, the processing of the matrix-matrix multiplication on a single ... -
Local site effects on seismic ground response of major cities in UAE
(2015)This paper investigates the influence of local geotechnical and geological soil conditions on the intensity of ground shaking of major cities in United Arab Emirates (UAE) including Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Sharjah, and their ... -
A localized navigation algorithm for Radiation Evasion for nuclear facilities. Part II: Optimizing the "Nearest Exit" Criterion
(2013-06)In this extension from part I ( Khasawneh et al., in press), we modify the navigation algorithm which was presented with the objective of optimizing the “Radiation Evasion” Criterion so that navigation would optimize the ... -
A localized navigation algorithm for radiation evasion for nuclear facilities: Optimizing the "Radiation Evasion" criterion: Part I
(2013-06)In this paper, we introduce a navigation algorithm having general utility for occupational workers at nuclear facilities and places where radiation poses serious health hazards. This novel algorithm leverages the use of ... -
Localizing-ground Transmitters Using Airborne Antenna Array
(2020-12)A radio direction finder (RDF) estimates the direction of arrival (DOA) of a radio signal. It receives multiple copies of the signal by a multiple-element antenna array, making use of the characteristics of the received ... -
