In this thesis, application of GMDH Algorithm to real life problems is studied. A particular type of GMDH Algorithm namely TMNN is chosen for this purpose. An effort is made to forecast S&P Index Closing Value with the help of the forecaster.

This thesis discusses the implementation of a feed forward NN using time series model to predict the sudden rise or sudden crash of a company's stock prices. The theory behind this prediction system is Pattern recognition. Pattern recognition techniques for time-series prediction are based on...

Network security is an important subject in today's extensively interconnected computer world. The industry, academic institutions, small and large businesses and even residences are now greatly at risk from the increasing onslaught of computer attacks. Such malicious efforts cause damage...

Innovation has flourished at the edge of the Internet; however, the core has experienced a slower pace of innovation. This lag is impacting the pace of innovation at the edge and threatening quality as ad hoc solutions are implemented to overcome core network barriers to innovation. Active...

The last decade has seen a surge in demand for cellular and WLAN networks. With the introduction of Voice Over IP, cellular companies are looking at WLAN-Cellular integrated networks that shall provide users with economical voice and data services. These networks shall be complimentary to the...

At the turn of the new millennium, the focus of Information Technology Management turned to Information and Systems Security, as opposed to competitive advantage investment. In catering to the security needs of various firms and institutions, it is seen that different entities require varying...

This thesis presents a model designed to optimize the allocation of corporate resources required for the success of a product in the marketplace. The product development resources used in the model are: market research, applied research, product design, cost reduction and advertising.

As use of the Internet becomes pervasive, user interface design of web sites becomes increasingly important. Consumers must be able to easily and quickly perform the functions they desire. Travel industry applications have a large market potential on the Internet. Because of the geographical...

Managers of software development need to know which components of a system are fault-prone. If this can be determined early in the development cycle then resources can be more effectively allocated and significant costs can be reduced. Case-Based Reasoning (CBR) is a simple and efficient...

Ensuring quality and reliability in software is important with its growing use in day to day life. Having an estimate of the number of faults in software modules early in their life cycles will enable software project managers to direct testing efforts in those considered risky and reduce the...
