This quantitative study examined the frequency of usage and teacher perception of educational technology by K-12 public school teachers in three geographic settings: urban, rural, and suburban. The objective aimed to uncover any significant relationship between variables in an effort to better understand trends in the professional environment. A…

This article describes how every learner is a unique creative individual responsible for paving his/her own way of learning in a preclusion of external restraints. Learners apply a bunch of idiosyncratic means to segue the information into knowledge. The various implications of such manipulated formulation by the learners implies strategic…

E-learning is of increasing importance in delivering flexible and distributed programmes for workforce skill development such as induction, product knowledge, systems compliance, and customer service. This research consists of a desktop exploratory review of e-learning concepts, policies, surveys, and a set of proposals and recommendations from…

Steganography is a widely-used technique for digital data hiding. Image steganography is the most popular among all other kinds of steganography. In this article, a novel key-based blind method for RGB image steganography where multiple images can be hidden simultaneously is described. The proposed method is based on Discrete Cosine Transformation…

In secure web application development, the role of web services will not continue if it is not trustworthy. Retaining customers with applications is one of the major challenges if the services are not reliable and trustworthy. This article proposes a trust evaluation and decision model where the authors have defined indirect attribute, trust,…

Automatic recognition of instrument types from an audio signal is a challenging and a promising research topic. It is challenging as there has been work performed in this domain and because of its applications in the music industry. Different broad categories of instruments like strings, woodwinds, etc., have already been identified. Very few…

Virtual resources team up to create a computational grid, which is used in computation-intensive problem solving. A majority of these problems require high performance resources to compute and generate results, making grid computation another type of high performance computing. The optimization in computational grids relates to resource…

Demand planning plays a very strategic role in improving the performance of every business, as the planning for a whole lot of other activities depends on the accuracy and validity of this exercise. The field of agriculture is not an exception; demand forecasting plays an important role in this area also, where a farmer can plan for the crop…

This paper illustrates the cloud-based telemonitoring framework that implements healthcare automation system for myocardial infarction (MI) disease classification. For this purpose, the pathological feature of ECG signal such as elevated ST segment, inverted T wave, and pathological Q wave are extracted, and MI disease is detected by the…

Social media data (SMD) is driven by statistical and analytical technologies to obtain information for various decisions. SMD is vast and evolutionary in nature which makes traditional data warehouses ill suited. The research aims to propose and implement novel framework that analyze tweets data from online social networking site (OSN; i.e.,…

A multi-label variant of email classification named ML-EC[superscript 2] (multi-label email classification using clustering) has been proposed in this work. ML-EC[superscript 2] is a hybrid algorithm based on text clustering, text classification, frequent-term calculation (based on latent dirichlet allocation), and taxonomic term-mapping…

Learning management systems (LMSs) provide possibilities to facilitate online teaching and learning; to create communities of inquiry, support dialogue and collaborative learning; and reduce students' sense of disconnectedness in distance learning. Nevertheless, studies show that LMSs are often under-utilized. This article reports on lecturers'…

The use of social media has become ubiquitous in many industries, including higher education. Emerging research shows that incorporating various social media platforms into course instruction can increase student interest, participation, and engagement as well as provide instructors and students with multiple platforms for communication and…

Nowadays, students are becoming familiar with the computer technology at a very early age. Moreover, the wide availability of the internet gives a new perspective to distance education making e-learning environments crucial to the future of education. Intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs) provide sophisticated tutoring systems using artificial…

Information integration is great for military operations because the range of pertinent information sources is significantly distinct and dynamic. This article develops an intelligent knowledge treasure comprised of military resource ontology and procedures, as a learning model for better interoperability of heterogeneous resources of the Indian…
