In our paper, we examine the case of intelligent language tutoring system (ILTS), which has helped increase productivity and reduce overhead costs by automating teaching processes. However, current ILTSs are restrictive when it comes to integrating functionalities such as context-based understanding, and allowing text input from user. This paper proposes a framework, incorporated into an intelligent language tutoring system, based on a string search algorithm that extracts only vital word patterns from a pre-defined 'items bank'. This ensures that only required Basic English patterns are acquired, thereby facilitating the system to deliver accurate context based results and handle advanced structures with ease. Comprehensive evaluation of the system's performance indicates the system has proven to be efficient and robust structure, providing favorable alternatives to Natural Language Processing (NLP) systems.","PeriodicalId":146712,"journal":{"name":"2011 First International Conference on Informatics and Computational Intelligence","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131546406","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

These methods do not work well because each specific query generates a large amount of network traffic, and network is quickly saturated by the query messages. This study is proposed a genetic algorithm to find the required resources in peer to peer grid. This method prevents the massive flooding of the network traffic and decreasing query messages by using the restricted and optimized flooding. We compare our method with traditional approaches. Obtained results show that proposed method decreases the network traffic.","PeriodicalId":146712,"journal":{"name":"2011 First International Conference on Informatics and Computational Intelligence","volume":"59 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"122181510","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The objective of this work is the selection of the most discriminating parameters for cancer cells. A new approach aiming to detect and classify colon cancer cells is presented. Our detection approach was derived from the \"Snake\" method but using a progressive division of the dimensions of the image to achieve faster segmentation. The time consumed during segmentation decrease to more than 50%. The efficiency of this method resides in its ability to segment Carcinoma (Ca) type cells that was difficult through other segmentation procedures. Classification of three cell types was based on five Haralicks features, only three Haralicks features were used to assess the efficiency classifications models, including Benign Hyperplasia (BH), Intraepithelial Neoplasia (IN) that is a precursor state for cancer, and Ca that corresponds to abnormal tissue proliferation (cancer). The analysis results show that three parameters (correlation, entropy and contrast) were found to be effective to discriminate between the three types of cells. The results obtained show the efficacy of the method.","PeriodicalId":146712,"journal":{"name":"2011 First International Conference on Informatics and Computational Intelligence","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128403391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper is focused on developing a computer based system applying Fuzzy Logic in order to identify and estimate the condition of an induction motor. Based on the vibration analysis characteristics of the motor, an unusual increase in the vibration could be an indicator of faulty condition. An inference system of the Fuzzy Logic was created and was able to classify the motor as 'acceptable' of the vibration ranges from 1.8mm/s to 4.5 mm/s or 'monitor closely' of the vibration ranges from 4.5 mm/s to 7.1 mm/s respectively. Early detection of unusual vibration increase of the motor is an important part of predictive maintenance (PdM).","PeriodicalId":146712,"journal":{"name":"2011 First International Conference on Informatics and Computational Intelligence","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2011-12-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131968770","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For the transactions held up by one or more locks, a prioritizing mechanism is used to manage the conflicting among them. Some transaction does not need to participate in all the phases, if they don't have any assignment to perform. Details of such transactions are updated in an early notification log file and processing time is saving during each phases of transactions.
