The research aims to identify the degree of the availability of
sentimental goals in the developed curriculum for kindergarten in
Syria. To achieve the aim, the descriptive approach and a list of
sentimental goals by the researcher Ruba Aldrgla we
re adopted.
Therefore, an analytical content form prepared by the researcher
was used to verify the veracity and persistence of the analysis,
which both are achieved. The list includes 86 sentimental sub-goals
classified into 12 major goals.
This study aims to verify the factors affecting Pharmacists’ loyality towards ASIA’s agent in Lattakia. It aims to determine the effects of quality of service dimensions (reliability, responsiveness, assurance, empathy and tangibility), service avail
ability, service completion, service professionalism on pharmacists’ satisfaction, and to determine the effect of pharmacists’ satisfaction on their loyality to ASIA’s agent in Lattakia. It also aims to determine whether there are significant differences in pharmacists’ satisfaction due to demographic factors.
This research includes evaluating the work of maintenance of themachines through
their own key performance indicators (KPI), and approved byindustrial and service
companies, We mention reliability, readiness ,average time between failures, average
Repair time ,average time of periodic maintenance of their production and
serviceequipment.
After the data processing of emergency failures and periodic maintenanceof
machines , we extracted values for maintenance performanceindicators, we measured
their performance and correlation to evaluateits compatibility with global indicators.
The research aim to assess the current situation through the use ofquantitative
methods pattern which is used to access the values of theprevious mentioned performance
indicators and their interdependence tobe used in support of maintenance decisionsin the
container terminal later.
We noticed a strong inverse association between periodic maintenance TPMtime and
breakdown TBD, and reached a value rERS = -0.99, and thereforewe must focus on
increasing periodic maintenance to reduce breakdowntime, and replace parts that cause
recurringproblems which caused about intensive breakdowns, thus reducing
periodicmaintenance time.
Also we were able to classify the quality of maintenance and machinesthrough the
readiness and reliability indicators and the mean timebetween failures.
A lot of research directed its concern to the reliability of Wireless Sensor Networks
(WSNs) used in various applications, especially in early detection of forest fires to ensure
the reliability of warning alarms sent by sensors and reduce the aver
age of false warnings.
In this research we have tried to evaluate the reliability of WSN used in early
detection of fires in Fir and cedar preserve, mainly. By designing hybrid WSN network,
similar to the terrains of the preserve and modeling it using program Opnet14.5. We have
studied several scenarios, to allow increasing malfunction of the network resulting from
fire break out and spreading: starting in allowance of 0% and comparing its results the
results of mathematical equations of reliability according to the same scenarios. In
addition, we have calculated the final availability through suggesting a mechanism to
improve WSN reliability using the redundancy, i.e add sensitive spare nodes, which
replace the damaged ones as the result of fire. The results have proved the remarkable
increasing of reliability. Also, it has been predicted of the reliability of the network
designed according to reliability of different values of the nodes used by using one of the
reliability devices "the Block Diagram".
Distributed Denial of Service attack (DDOS) on Vehicular Ad Hoc Networks
(VANETs) is considered to be one of the most serious types of attacks that can be targeted
to those networks. The danger of this attack is in the difficulty of detection becau
se of the
cooperation of several attacking nodes in the network, and its impact on the availability
requirement that is one of the most important security requirements in a network offering
real-time applications .In our research, we study the effect of this attack on VANET
network in the city, taking into consideration two cases. In the first case the target of the
attack is the nodes, while in the second one, the target is the road side units (RSU).
Simulation results have shown that this attack has a significant impact on both cases, by
comparing the basic parameters of the network, such as throughput in/out and the number
of dropped packets, before and after the attack.
The study aimed to look at the reality of the application of
information and communication technology in small and medium
enterprises in Syria, and stand on the most important requirements
for effective use of this technology is effective. The stu
dy sample
included an administrative 96 in a number of small and medium
enterprises in the cities of Latakia and Tartous during the first half
of 2015 represented. the most prominent results of the study that the
most important requirements for activating the use of technology in
institutions under consideration is the availability of qualified
trained and reduce the cost of the use of technology and the
development of the necessary infrastructure, In addition to the type
of activity, which plays an important role in the extent of the use of
technology.
This research aims to identify the reality of food security in Syria between the years 2006- 2010. The most important crops in Syria are grain crops, occupying 64.18% of the area of cultivated land. Wheat is the most important grain; it had product
ion growth rate of 2.24% between the years 2000- 2010. This is higher than wheat production growth rate not only in the Arab world but in the whole world. This production rate allowed Syria to achieve self-sufficiency in wheat 119.4%, potatoes 110.5%, legumes 168%, fruits 102.7, vegetables 146.9%, in addition to other products. The average per capita in Syria is 345.16 kg of grain per person which is greater than that in the Arab world by 36.17 kg. The value of food gap in Syria increased from 42.5 million dollars in 2006 to 1412.23 million dollars in 2010. This was due to the increase of grain food gap which reached 976.32 million dollars. It was still, however, within reasonable limits. The indicators of access to food in Syria were positive as the index of average individual share of local production per capita was higher than the index of food prices in 2007, 2008, and 2010. The true growth of individual share of local products per capita was positive in 2006 reaching 9.18%, but it shrank to 3.7% in 2010.
Advanced Reservation (AR) is used to guarantee resource provisioning for many different types of
applications including workflows. This technique is still under a huge controversy in both Business and
Research communities because of its potentialit
y of reducing resource utilization. Most of the works
proposed in this domain suggest reservation for the whole workflow schedule, and on all available
resources at the same time, which worsen the problem of resource utilization.
Many solutions are introduced to improve resource utilization under advanced reservation through
generating relaxed and elastic reservation plans that local scheduling systems could modify to improve
utilization and decrease internal fragmentation. These solutions depend mainly on changing rigid AR,
which considered to be the most difficult kind of reservation, into relaxed and elastic ones through adding
extra time on the resulted schedule and then distributing it on all tasks of the workflow.
This paper presents a new autonomic algorithm (EWARP) for producing elastic reservation plans for
workflow applications which doesn’t add extra times. Instead, it depends on exploiting the timing gaps
produced by the different scheduling algorithms. The new algorithm use the technique of discovering
timing gaps, but modifies it, and adds to it to be used for producing an elastic reservation plan for
workflows. The results presented in this paper demonstrate how the proposed algorithm outperforms
existing works in the fields by a lower bound approximating 25%.This shows that (EWARP) algorithm
offer efficient and practical solutions for the problem of scheduling workflow applications under QoS
constrains.
