Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordApplication of Optimal Control to the Epidemiology of Fowl Pox Transmission Dynamics in PoultryUdofia Ekere Sunday, Inyama Simeon ChiomaProblem statement: In this study, we present the mathematical model of the transmission dynamics of fowl pox infection in poultry. Approach: It describes the interaction between the susceptible and the infected birds which results in a system of ordinary differential equation. Introducing the control which represents the effort in applying chemoprophylaxis control u1 and treatment control u2 in birds with … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 13 Jun 2012 · 6,957 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordUnderstand the Role of Natural KillerHan Yuen Lam, Swee Keong Yeap, Noorjahan Banu Alitheen et al.Problem statement: Immunosuppression is a common approach for pathogens or cancer to escape from immune system of the infected host. Some of the antimicrobe or anticancer drugs may also weaken the body immune system. Among various types of immune cell, natural killer cells are the key component of the innate immunity which plays an important role in first line defense … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 5 Aug 2011 · 7,938 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordSolute or Heat Transport in a Flat DuctElijah Johnson, Ayaovi D. Apeti, Sekeenia Haynes, Larry RobinsonSteady state solute and heat transfer for laminar flow in a flat duct has been widely studied[1-4]. The same problem in a circular tube is called the Graetz Problem[5,6]. The transfer rate of solute and heat from fluids is of importance in a number of processes, such as diffusion of drugs in the blood stream and the uptake of environmental … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,395 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Fast Approximate String Searching AlgorithmMahmoud Mhashi, Adnan Rawashdeh, Awni HammouriIn both approximate and exact string searching algorithms, the shift distance at the skipping step plays a major role in the performance of string matching algorithms. A new algorithm called the Modified Character-Weight Algorithm (MWA) has been developed to test the effect of the shift distance on the performance of approximate string matching. An experiment was performed comparing the performance … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,915 accessesView PDF Cite
