Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesNON-INVASIVE OPTICAL METHOD FOR EPIDERMAL THICKNESS ESTIMATIONAdrian Pena, Miguel Arronte, Eduardo De Posada et al.A non-invasive method to determine epidermal thickness from the intensity of transmitted visible light is proposed. A simple model for passing light through the epidermis layers, then measuring what is transmitted back out of the surface, is implemented by using the Montecarlo method. Simulations revealed that the transmittance is linearly dependent on the thickness of the epidermis and so demonstrated … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 25 Jun 2014 · 7,484 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesWIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKS FOR MEASURING THE CONSUMPTION OF SAVE WATER TAPSInacio Henrique Yano, Vitor Chaves de Oliveira, Eduardo Veiga de Araujo et al.Currently, water consumption is on the agenda of most organizations around the world. Beyond the environmental benefits for a better use of natural resources there is also a financial motivation to continuously reduce operation costs. This study reports a cost-effective solution using a Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) for measuring the consumption of different types of save water taps, in a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 1 Apr 2014 · 6,858 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCOMPARISON USING PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION AND GENETIC ALGORITHM FOR TIMETABLE SCHEDULINGDennise AdriantoLecturer timetable scheduling is an important part in the resource allocation planning. Due to the large amount of transactions and various related constraints have to be taken into account in timetable scheduling process, resource manager team shall need a lot of time to the solve the problem. This research is aimed to discuss the application of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 20 Nov 2013 · 7,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesAN APPROACH TO MITIGATE DENIAL OF SERVICE ATTACKS IN IEEE 802.11 NETWORKSAdriano Cesar Ribeiro, Alex Roschildt Pinto, Geraldo Francisco Donega Zafalon et al.Wireless networks are widely deployed and have many uses, for example in critical embedded systems. The applications of this kind of network meets the common needs of most embedded systems and addressing the particularities of each scenario, such as limitations of computing resources and energy supply. Problems such as denial of service attacks are common place and cause great inconvenience. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 12 Nov 2013 · 8,624 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesIsolation of the Antimicrobial Cyclic Peptide Subtilosin a from a Gut-Associated Bacillus subtilis StrainGhislain Schyns, Claudia R. Serra, Adriano O. Henriques et al.The endospore-forming Bacillus subtilis has been used as probiotics over the last 50 years. However, little is known on how Bacillus spp act in the gut compared to other well-characterized probiotics such as lactic acid bacteria. It is believed that the competitive exclusion of pathogens results from different mode of action notably the production of antimicrobial compounds such as bacteriocins. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 21 Sep 2013 · 7,682 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesGENETIC ALGORITHM AND NEURAL NETWORK FOR OPTICAL CHARACTER RECOGNITIONHendy Yeremia, Niko Adrianus Yuwono, Pius Raymond, Widodo BudihartoComputer system has been able to recognize writing as human brain does. The method mostly used for character recognition is the backpropagation network. Backpropagation network has been known for its accuracy because it allows itself to learn and improving itself thus it can achieve higher accuracy. On the other hand, backpropagation was less to be used because of its time … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 19 Sep 2013 · 7,650 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesLAG SELECTION OF THE AUGMENTED KAPETANIOS-SHIN-SNELL NONLINEAR UNIT ROOT TESTJen-Je Su, Adrian Wai-Kong Cheung, Eduardo RocaWe provide simulation evidence that shed light on several size and power issues in relation to lag selection of the augmented (nonlinear) KSS test. Two lag selection approaches are considered-the Modified AIC (MAIC) approach and a sequential General to Specific (GS) testing approach Either one of these approaches can be used to select the optimal lag based on either the … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 4 May 2013 · 7,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesCell-Based Therapies in the Prevention of Solid Organ Transplant RejectionAdrian E. Morelli, Sherrie J. DivitoProblem statement: Organ transplantation is a life-saving and increasingly common procedure, as it often serves as the only treatment available for end-stage organ disease. Although the constant development of new and more effective immunosuppressive drugs has revolutionized the prevention and treatment of acute graft rejection, these drugs have significant toxicity, greatly increase patient susceptibility to neoplasms and infection and exert … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 26 Jul 2012 · 7,418 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the author namesGroundwater Dynamics and Quality Assessment in an Agricultural AreaStefano Lo Russo, Adriano Fiorucci, Bartolomeo VignaProblem statement: The analysis of the relationships among the different hydrogeological Units and the assessment of groundwater quality are fundamental to adopt suitable territorial planning measures aimed to reduce the potential groundwater pollution especially in agricultural regions. In this study, the characteristics of groundwater dynamics and the assessment of its quality in the Cuneo Plain (NW Italy) were examined. Approach: … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 29 Sep 2011 · 7,373 accessesView PDFCite
