Mobile agent development is mainly supported by Java-based platforms. However, the weak mobility model they use, added to the inherent complexity of building location-aware software, impose strong limitations for developing mobile agents. In this article we present MoviLog, a platform…

This paper describes the design and implementation of MATLAB*G, a parallel MATLAB on the ALiCE Grid. ALiCE (Adaptive and scaLable internet-based Computing Engine), developed at NUS, is a lightweight grid-computing middleware. Grid applications in ALiCE are written in Java and…

In this article we present a performance comparison of four symmetric block ciphers namely DES, Triple-DES, AES, and Blowfish. Performance evaluation based on CPU execution time is conducted under WinXP and Ubuntu /Linux version 8.10 operating system platforms. The study…

Java has adopted a mechanism to support parameterized types that will be available in the next major release. A draft specification to add generics to the JavaTM Programming Language was published two years ago [1] and a new version of…

Region-based memory management offers several important advantages over garbage-collected heap, including real-time performance, better data locality and efficient use of limited memory. The concept of regions was first introduced for a call-by-value functional language by Tofte and Talpin, and has…

The purpose of this study is to overview the gap between the theory and the existing condition towards Eco Industrial Park in the North Coast Region, East Java Province. We used gap analysis method.  The result shows that industrial area…

The author tries to explain the relationship between relational bonding, customer value, and customer loyalty that mediate the satisfaction and delight on three consumer groups (stayers, dissatisfied switchers, and satisfied switchers) in the Islamic banking industry in East Java, Indonesia.…

Encryption Key Search is a compute-intensive operation that consists of a brute-force search of a particular key in a given key space. Sequential execution time for a 56-bit encryption key search is approximately 200,000 years and therefore it is ideal…

The aim of this research is to formulate a theoretical model that explains causal links among supply chain drivers and operational performance by adding several SCM variables, namely strategy, practices and responsiveness into the links and empirically tests the model…
