Development of Awarding System for Construction Contractors in Gaza Strip Using Artificial Neural Network (ANN)
(Korean Institute of Construction Engineering and Management, 2016-09-01)The purpose of this paper is to develop a model for selecting the best contractor in the Gaza Strip using the Artificial Neural Network (ANN). The contractor’s selection methods and criteria were identified using a field ... -
Identification of Factors Affecting Special Hardship Cases Shelters’ Interventions at Gaza Strip – UNRWA
(The Islamic University of Gaza, 2018-12)The sheltering and housing for special hardship cases families is one of main objectives of UNRWA. It contributes to alleviating the suffering of poor refugee families. There are many problems beyond noninterference in ... -
Towards lean and green thinking in construction projects at Gaza Strip
(Walter de Gruyter GmbH, 2018-11-01)Background and problem: Integrating lean and green principles while implementing construction project has become an important aspect of modern construction. Lean construction and green building are used to maximize the ... -
Factors Affecting Cost Escalation in Construction Projects in Gaza Strip
(Vandana Publications, 2018-12)Cost escalation is one of serious difficulties that facing the construction industry. The construction sector suffers from ever-increasing cost of raw materials, construction inputs and inflation in domestic and international ... -
Space-time transmission scheme for asynchronous cooperative communications networks
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-03)In this paper, an effective transmission scheme is proposed for asynchronous cooperative networks with two relays. The need for synchronization is obviated by allowing a single relay to be active in each time-slot of the ... -
On Using Quadrature Spatial Modulation in Multi-User Networks
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-03)Quadrature spatial modulation (QSM) has been recently proposed for MIMO communication systems. It comes to enhance the overall throughput over conventional spatial modulation (SM) techniques. This article investigates the ... -
Smart Traffic Lights using Image Processing Algorithms
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-03)Conventional methods of traffic light systems are unable to deal with the ongoing issues surrounding congestion. The current traffic light models are not suited to tackle problems such as traffic jams, ease of access for ... -
Investigation of Non-Overlapping Time-Domain Windowing for OOB Radiation Reduction of OFDM System
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE), 2019-03)Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) systems suffer from significant out-of-band (OOB) radiation. All existing techniques have several drawbacks as wasting spectral or time resources. Time domain windowing is ... -
Assessment of Road Safety Audit Status in Gaza Strip, Palestine
(Science Publishing Group, 2019-05-23)Local statistics in the last ten years indicate that the number of road accidents in both Gaza Strip and the West Bank is continuously increasing. Recent statistics by the Traffic Accidents Investigation Office of the ... -
Ldpc Code Construction using Randomly Permutated Copies of Parity Check Matrix
(2017-10-08)A construction technique is proposed for low-density parity check (LDPC) codes. It uses a base parity check matrix designed from a ran-dom or constructed construction method as Gallager or Quasi-Cyclic LDPC (QC-LDPC) codes ... -
Modified Advanced Encryption Standard Algorithm for Reliable Real-Time Communications
(2018-09)Ensuring the security of data while being transmitted or stored is a very important issue for companies and end users. Cryptography is used to transfer the data in a form that is not understood by anyone apart from the ... -
Comparative Study for the Performance of VBLAST, QOSTBC and Hybrid BLAST-STBC MIMO System under Transmit Link Deep Fading
(2018-09)This paper studies the effect of transmit antenna multipath channel deep fading on the effective received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), bit error rate (BER), capacity and throughput of 4 × 4 MIMO system for several transmit ... -
School furniture match to students' anthropometry in the Gaza Strip
(Routledge, 2010)This study aimed at comparing primary school students' anthropometry to the dimensions of school furniture and determining whether the furniture used matches the students' anthropometry. A sample of 600 male students, whose ... -
Evaluating and benchmarking non-governmental training programs: an analytic hierarchy approach
(2008)This study uses Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) as a multi-criteria decision making technique for evaluating training programs. Critical factors characterizing successful training programs are first identified using ... -
Goal Programming for Academic Plans Design
(Elsevier, 2010)This article describes a project undertaken at the Islamic University in Gaza. The project aims at designing a general academic departmental plan of study using binary goal programming. The design process includes balancing ... -
Use of goal programming and integer programming for water quality management—A case study of Gaza Strip
(North-Holland, 2006)This paper describes a project dealing with achieving an optimum mix of water from different underground wells, each having different amounts of nitrates and chlorides. The amounts of chlorides and nitrates in each of the ... -
Fatigue performance of superfinish hard turned surfaces in rolling contact
(2000)The purpose of this research is to study and model the performance of superfinish hard turned surfaces in rolling contact fatigue. The rolling contact fatigue is first modeled by taking into account the residual stresses ... -
Determining expected fatigue life of hard machined components
(2006)A method of determining expected fatigue life of machined bearing races or other components wherein a hardened surface of each bearing race is machined to provide a machined surface including the steps of determining ... -
A multi-criteria multi-stakeholder industrial projects prioritization in Gaza Strip
(Springer-Verlag, 2013)This research presents a decision support methodology for selection decisions in which Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) model is used to prioritize main industries in Gaza Strip not only from the view point of a single ...
