Abstract Designing for maximum usability is the goal of interactive systems design, since users want interactive products to be easy to learn, effective, efficient, safe, memorable and over all; satisfying to use. Achieving this requires the product to be evaluated, but the process of evaluation can be difficult, because different evaluation methodologies require some restriction ―e.g. experienced evaluators‖ and can be more time-consuming. In addition, developers will not be able to kno...
Abstract The Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is becoming increasingly popular as it enables sensor nodes to measure the surrounding environment, communicate and process measured data. WSN has been directed from military applications to various civil applications, especially in hostile areas. Medical, industrial and smart energy applications is still in need for extensive research due to various challenges encountered. Energy consumption is one of the vital challenges that face WSNs research. T...
ABSTRACT The main purpose of this dissertation was to evaluate the performance of Cassandra and HBase NoSQL Databases, that present at Column-oriented category on handling streaming data. The data set used for this evaluation were constructed with the help of the Twitter Streaming API. The environment which used to evaluate the performance of Cassandra and HBase on Streaming Data was Apache Spark with its ability to plot streaming data from source using Spark-R. Several studies have been con...
Abstract Big data refers to large complex structured or unstructured data sets. Big data technologies enable organisations to generate, collect, manage, analyse, and visualise big data sets, and provide insights to inform diagnosis, prediction, or other decision-making tasks. One of the critical concerns in handling big data is the adoption of appropriate big data governance frameworks to (1) curate big data in a required manner to support quality data access for effective machine learning a...
Abstract This study aims to use modern Data Mining techniques to analyze admission data of Sudanese universities. The current methodology contains two data warehouse structures; a star and a snowflake. A star data warehouse structure was used to develop several Association Rules Mining models. The snowflake data warehouse structure was used to create a smart user interface based on OLAP (On Line Analytical Processing) technique as the first system for OLAP in Sudan. However the Association R...

ABSTRACT Voice recognition is considered as one of the most important aspects of machine learning domain. But it still has limited and modest applications in Arabic language. The Holy Quran is the largest container of Arabic language grammar in terms of speaking and utterance as it is considered as a message for all humanity. However, we present within this study a classification model for four different altajweed rules like the Allah name(mofakham, morakaq) and moon and sun L(لام,(as we ...
