Global technological advancements drive daily energy consumption, generating additional carbon-induced climate challenges. Modifying process parameters, optimizing design, and employing high-performance working fluids are among the techniques offered by researchers for improving the thermal efficiency of heating and cooling systems. This study investigates the heat transfer enhancement of hybrid “Al2O3-Cu/water” nanofluids flowing in a two-dimensional channel with semicircle ribs. The novelty of this research is in employing semicircle ribs combined with hybrid nanofluids in turbulent flow regimes. A computer modeling approach using a finite volume approach with k-ω shear stress transport turbulence model was used in these simu

The Internet is providing vital communications between millions of individuals. It is also more and more utilized as one of the commerce tools; thus, security is of high importance for securing communications and protecting vital information. Cryptography algorithms are essential in the field of security. Brute force attacks are the major Data Encryption Standard attacks. This is the main reason that warranted the need to use the improved structure of the Data Encryption Standard algorithm. This paper proposes a new, improved structure for Data Encryption Standard to make it secure and immune to attacks. The improved structure of Data Encryption Standard was accomplished using standard Data Encryption Standard with a new way of two key gene

The effectiveness of detecting and matching of image features using multiple views of a specified scene using dynamic scene analysis is considered to be a critical first step for many applications in computer vision image processing. The Scale invariant feature transform (SIFT) can be applied very successfully of typical images captured by a digital camera.
In this paper, firstly the SIFT and its variants are systematically analyzed. Then, the performances are evaluated in many situations: change in rotation, change in blurs, change in scale and change in illumination. The outcome results show that each algorithm has its advantages when compared with other algorithms

Association rules mining (ARM) is a fundamental and widely used data mining technique to achieve useful information about data. The traditional ARM algorithms are degrading computation efficiency by mining too many association rules which are not appropriate for a given user. Recent research in (ARM) is investigating the use of metaheuristic algorithms which are looking for only a subset of high-quality rules. In this paper, a modified discrete cuckoo search algorithm for association rules mining DCS-ARM is proposed for this purpose. The effectiveness of our algorithm is tested against a set of well-known transactional databases. Results indicate that the proposed algorithm outperforms the existing metaheuristic methods.

Most heuristic search method's performances are dependent on parameter choices. These parameter settings govern how new candidate solutions are generated and then applied by the algorithm. They essentially play a key role in determining the quality of the solution obtained and the efficiency of the search. Their fine-tuning techniques are still an on-going research area. Differential Evolution (DE) algorithm is a very powerful optimization method and has become popular in many fields. Based on the prolonged research work on DE, it is now arguably one of the most outstanding stochastic optimization algorithms for real-parameter optimization. One reason for its popularity is its widely appreciated property of having only a small number of par

      Bioinformatics is one of the computer science and biology sub-subjects concerned with the processes applied to biological data, such as gathering, processing, storing, and analyzing it. Biological data (ribonucleic acid (RNA), deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), and protein sequences) has many applications and uses in many fields (data security, data segmentation, feature extraction, etc.). DNA sequences are used in the cryptography field, using the properties of biomolecules as the carriers of the data. Messenger RNA (mRNA) is a single strand used to make proteins containing genetic information. The information recorded from DNA also carries messages from DNA to ribosomes in the cytosol. In this paper, a new encryption technique bas
