Machine Learning-Based Adaptive Load Balancing Framework for Distributed Object Computing by Helmy, Tarek

“…In this paper, we address the issue of judicious load balancing in distributed object computing systems. In order to decrease response time and to utilize services effectively, we have proposed and implemented a new technique based on machine learning for adaptive and flexible load balancing mechanism within the framework of distributed middleware. …”

Operation optimization of propane pre-cooled mixed refrigerant LNG Process: A novel integration of knowledge-based and constrained Bayesian optimization approaches by Roba Shady (22048043)

“…However, the liquefaction process is the highest energy-intensive stage within its supply chain as it consumes about 8 % of the LNG energy content. Thus, for the first time, this study proposes systematic knowledge-based and constrained Bayesian optimization approaches to identify the optimal operation of the C3MR process. …”

A comprehensive design and rating study of evaporative coolers and condensers. Part I. Performance evaluation by QURESHI, BILAL AHMED

“…It is demonstrated that thermal effectiveness of the evaporative heat exchangers degrades significantly with time indicating that, for a low risk level (pZ0.01), there is about 66.7% decrease in effectiveness for the given fouling model. …”

1,2,4-Trimethylbenzene Transformation Reaction Compared With Its Transalkylation Reaction With Toluene Over USY Zeolite by Al-Khattaf, H

“…Kinetic parameters for the 1,2,4-TMB disappearance during the transalkylation reaction and in its conversion into isomerization and disproportionation products were calculated using the catalyst activity decay function based on time on stream (TOS). The apparent activation energies were found to decrease as follows: E-transalkylation > E-isomerization > E-disproportionation.…”

A Comprehensive Method of Ion Exchange Resins Regeneration and Its Optimization for Water Treatment by Al-Asheh, Sameer

“…Water conductivity, as an indicator of regeneration efficiency, was monitored over time at the different conditions and scenario. In general, it was observed that the conductivity decreases with time until one point is reached and then starts to increase as a result of resin saturation. …”

Catalytic Transformation Of C-7-C9 Methyl Benzenes Over USY-Based FCC Zeolite Catalyst by Al-Khattaf, S

“…The sequence of reactivity of the three alkyl benzenes was found to decrease as the number of methyl group per benzene ring decreases, as follows: 1,2,4-trimethylbenzene > m-xylene > toluene. …”

The role of objectively recorded smartphone usage and personality traits in sleep quality by Aftab Alam (5158601)

“…The usage data of smartphone apps were processed to calculate smartphone usage amounts and sleep variables, including sleep duration, sleep distraction, sleeping time, and wake-up time. The data were analyzed using the correlation coefficient and regression analyses.…”

Postprandial lipaemia 10 and 34 hours after playing football: Does playing frequency affect the response? by Darren J. Paul (6905450)

“…<p dir="ltr">Elevated postprandial triglyceride (TG) is associated with increased risk of cardiovascular disease. The time window for the last bout beneficial effect on postprandial lipaemia after football play is unknown. …”

EEG-Based Semantic Vigilance Level Classification Using Directed Connectivity Patterns and Graph Theory Analysis by Yahya, Fares

“…Behaviorally, all subjects demonstrated vigilance decrement as reflected by the significant increase in response time and reduced accuracy. The strength and directionality of information flow in the connectivity network by RWTE/PDC and the GTA measures significantly decrease with vigilance decrement, p<0.05. …”

Teachers’ Job Satisfaction in Instructional Delivery Modalities, and the Role of School Leaders: a Study among Selected Private Schools in Abu Dhabi. by YAHYA, AHMAD

“…The primary teaching modalities that are of the research interest are the face-to-face modular, which represents the traditional teaching module that was commonly applied before the COVID-19 pandemic; the online delivery method which suggests the use of fully distance learning solutions for instruction; and the hybrid learning model, which is a mixture of both the online and face-to-face modules as some students receive instructions from home and at the same time some of their peers are attending the class physically at school. …”

Tabu search based circuit optimization by Sait, Sadiq M.

“…Such a strategy leads to sizable circuit speed improvement with minimum increase in the overall circuit capacitance. Compared to earlier approaches, the presented technique produces circuits with remarkable increase in speed (greater than 20%) for very small increase in overall circuit capacitance (less than 3%)…”

Internet Searches for Medical Symptoms Before Seeking Information on 12-Step Addiction Treatment Programs: A Web-Search Log Analysis by George Nitzburg (18614989)

“…Second, we examined symptom queries preceding queries on the 12-step program at time lags of 0-7 days, 7-14 days, and 14-30 days, where the probability of asking about a medical symptom was greater in the 30-day time window preceding 12-step program information-seeking as compared to all previous times that the symptom was queried.…”
