A Business process architecture (BPA) is one of the significant assets in educational systems as it helps to understand and optimize educational processes by focusing on the key processes rather than the organizational specific details. The semantic, Riva-based business process architecture (srBPA) ontology is an abstract ontology that semantically...

Background: Few ontological attempts have been reported for conceptualizing the bioethics domain. In addition to limited scope representativeness and lack of robust methodological approaches in driving research design and evaluation of bioethics ontologies, no bioethics ontologies exist for pandemics and COVID-19. This research attempted to investi...

People use social media to create and share information, interests and ideas through the global network. In recent years, many social networks such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and others have become very famous. The use of social networks has occupied a significant part of the daily life of millions of people all around the world. In this paper...

The rapid changes and increased complexity in today's world present new challenges and put new demands on the education system. There has been generally a growing awareness of the necessity to change and improve the existing system towards online learning. Jordan is one of the distin-guished countries in the Middle East with rapid progress in educa...

This paper aims to design and implement an automatic heart disease diagnosis system using MATLAB. The Cleveland data set for heart diseases was used as the main database for training and testing the developed system. In order to train and test the Cleveland data set, two systems were developed. The first system is based on the Multilayer Perceptron...

Class diagrams and use case models are system models that are used to analyze, design and model object oriented systems. In this era of agile computing, service-oriented architecture has become increasingly popular for achieving efficient and agile business solutions that can maintain changes demanded by the business world. This paper proposes a me...

This paper presents the development of a new mobile phone dialler application which is designed to help blind and visually impaired people make phone calls. The new mobile phone dialler application is developed as a windows phone application to facilitate entering information to touch screen mobile phones by blind people. This application is advant...

This paper describes the development of the srBPA ontology, which is a formal ontology that conceptualizes the elements of the Riva-based business process architecture and the relationships between them. This ontology was instantiated using the UWE's CEMS faculty administration case study in an attempt to assess the correctness and the usefulness o...

Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) is becoming the architectural style of choice in many enterprises that adopt the notion of business process architecture. This suggests the need for a systematic and unifi ed approach to generate a service model from a given organizational business process architecture. This paper presents a generic framework cal...

Modelling business processes using BPMN has been emerging as the preferred choice for organisations seeking to enact their business processes in service-oriented environments. However, a number of organisations have their business processes modelled using role activity diagramming, RAD. In this research, we introduce a new approach to translating R...

The behavior of Radial Basis Function (RBF) Networks greatly depends on how the center points of the basis functions are selected. In this work we investigate the use of instance reduction techniques, originally developed to reduce the storage requirements of instance based learners, for this purpose. Five Instance-Based Reduction Techniques were u...
