Closed Loop Supply Chain Under Consignment Stock Partnership
(2015-05)The emerging field of reverse logistics or closed loop supply chain management seeks to efficiently handle all the activities pertaining to the retrieval of products from end customers along with the proper reuse or disposal ... -
Closed-form Exact and Asymptotic Expressions for the Symbol Error Rate and Channel Capacity of the H-function Fading Channel
(IEEE Vehicular Technology Society, 2016-04)In this paper, we derive closed-form exact and asymptotic expressions for the symbol error rate (SER) as well as channel capacity when communicating over the Fox's H-function fading channel. The SER expressions are obtained ... -
Closing the Loop: An Empirical Investigation of Causality in IT Business Value
(Elsevier, 2017-06)Researchers have established that information technology (IT) can improve firms' productivity. Whether improved productivity leads to additional investment in IT, however, remains largely uninvestigated. In this paper, we ... -
CNN and HEVC Video Coding Features for Static Video Summarization
(IEEE, 2022)This study proposes a novel solution for the detection of keyframes for static video summarization. We preprocessed the well-known video datasets by coding them using the HEVC video coding standard. During coding, 64 ... -
CO2 capture with a novel solid fluidizable sorbent: Thermodynamics and Temperature Programmed Carbonation-Decarbonation
(2013)Temperature Programmed Carbonation developed using a temperature programmed fixed bed unit. Sorbents are kept in contact with a gas stream containing a 10% CO2 mole fraction, and are subjected to a 5 C/min temperature ramp. ... -
Coexistence and extinction in a competitive exclusion Leslie/Gower model with harvesting and stocking
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2009)The principle of competitive exclusion states that when the competition between species is sufficiently strong, only the dominant species survives. In this paper, we examine the strategies of using stocking and harvesting ... -
Cognitive Vigilance Enhancement using Audio Stimulation of Pure Tone at 250 Hz
(IEEE Access, 2021)In this paper, we propose a novel vigilance enhancement method based on audio stimulation of pure tone at 250 Hz. We induced two different levels of vigilance state; vigilance decrement (VD) and vigilance enhancement (VE). ... -
Coherence in the Translation of Al-Ghazali's: Al-Munqidh Min Ad-Dalal
(2011-06)This thesis discusses translators' sensitivity towards argumentative classical texts. One major assumption this research intends to question is the ongoing debate of "translation as a cohesive string of words" vs. "translation ... -
