Machine Learning-Based Approach for EV Charging Behavior
(2021-04)As smart city applications are moving from conceptual models to the development phase, smart transportation, of smart cities’ applications, is gaining ground nowadays. Electric vehicles (EVs) are considered to be one of ... -
Machine Translation in Saudi Arabia
(2012-12)Recently, there has been an increasing interest in machine translation technology in the Arab world and the world at large, especially with the growing demand for translation. The aim of this thesis is to investigate how ... -
MAG School Teachers' Attitudes toward Practitioner Research in English Language Classrooms in Sharjah
(2010-05)Teachers' attitudes towards classroom research show differences from teacher to teacher. Some teachers believe that involvement in classroom research can benefit students, teachers, administrators, and the school. Other ... -
Magnetic Fe3O4 Nano-Structured Coatings for Corrosion Protection of Mild Steel
(2014-07)The use of coatings is a prime method in corrosion control of mild steel in the industry. Inorganic coatings have proven potency in corrosion control over organic ones; however, they have always been associated with a ... -
Management and control of air emissions from electronic industries
(2014-01)Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) including acetone, dichloromethane, ethanol, ethylene glycol, iso-propyl alcohol, and several other aromatic compounds are emitted during the manufacturing processes in electronic industries. ... -
Managers and organizational forgetting: a synthesis
(Emerald, 2018)Purpose - This paper evaluated how managers influence accidental and intentional organizational forgetting, i.e., knowledge depreciation, knowledge loss, and unlearning. Design/methodology/approach - The literature was ... -
MANET Cluster Optimization Using ILP/SAT Techniques
(2012-01)In recent years, there have been several improvements in the performance of Integer Linear Programming (ILP) and Boolean Satisfiability (SAT) solvers. These improvements have encouraged the modeling of complex engineering ... -
Manufacturing of Metal Matrix Composites: Optimization of the Powder Metallurgy Process
(2016-11)Metal Matrix Composites (MMC) is a material made up of combination of metal and ceramics which combines both properties of parent materials. MMC have some significant advantages, such as providing better mechanical strength ... -
Mapping of Embedded Functionalized Carbon Nanotubes in Poly(vinyl alcohol)/Nanotube Composite Using Electrostatic Force Microscopy
(Taylor & Francis, 2012)In the present study, electrostatic force microscopy (EFM) was used as a nondestructive tool for mapping individual functionalized single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) incorporated in a poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)/CNT ... -
Marine Sponges, Other Animal Food, and Nonfood Items Found in Digestive Tracts of the Herbivorous Marine Turtle Chelonia mydas in Hawai'i
(2011-07)Although the usual diet of Chelonia mydas comes from algae and sea grasses (plant material), animal material has been found in samples taken over the past 35 yr. The small black-brown protein sponge Chondrosia chucalla ... -
A Market Efficiency Comparison of Islamic and Non-Islamic Stock Indices
(Taylor & Francis Online, 2015)This article examines the martingale difference hypothesis (MDH) and the random walk hypothesis (RWH) for nine conventional and nine Islamic stock indices: Asia-Pacific, Canadian, Developed Country, Emerging, European, ... -
Market Efficiency of Floating Exchange Rate Systems: Some Evidence from Pacific-Asian Countries
(Elsevier, 2011)This paper examines the random walk hypothesis (RWH) and the martingale difference hypothesis (MDH) for the Australian dollar and five Asian emerging currencies relative to three benchmark currencies. We use Wright’s (2000) ... -
Martingale problem for superprocesses with non-classical branching functional
(Elsevier, 2006)The martingale problem for superprocesses with parameters (𝛏, Ф, 𝑘) is studied where 𝑘(𝒹𝑠) may not be absolutely continuous with respect to the Lebesgue measure. This requires a generalization of the concept of ... -

Material Selection and Process Design Optimization Framework under Closed-Loop Supply Chain
(2012-01)With an industrial era characterized by new regulations aiming at protecting costumers and the global environment, manufacturers have to be more effective in delivering products that meet customers requirement but also, ... -
MaterialNature: An Opportunistic Paradigm of Architecture and Landscape Ecology
(CUBE Srl, 2017-11)In this space, small-scale coastal erosion, and natural growth become the vehicle for project based architectural speculation that leverages the resources of local landscapes and creates a new architectural trajectory based ... -
Mathematical Modeling and Experimental Breakthrough Curves of Carbon Dioxide Adsorption on Metal Organic Framework CPM-5
(ACS, 2013-07)It is essential to capture carbon dioxide from flue gas because it is considered one of the main causes of global warming. Several materials and different methods have been reported for CO2 capturing including adsorption ... -
Mathematical modeling of microbubble cavitation at 70 kHz and the importance of the subharmonic in drug delivery from micelles
(Elsevier, 2013)In order to gain insight into the experimental observation of ultrasound-induced release of drugs from micelles, we modeled the dynamic oscillations of a 10-μm-diameter bubble insonated at 70 kHz. The Parlitz modification ... -
Matrix Encoding for Data Hiding Using Multilayer Video Coding and Transcoding Solutions
(Elsevier, 2012)This paper proposes a multitier data hiding solution in MPEG video using matrix encoding. In the first tier of the proposed solution, raw video is encoded into two layers using multilayer Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) encoding. ...
