Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDistillation and Microdiffusion Modifications for total Nh4f Quantification and 15N RecoveryGaius D. Eudoxie, Gregory A. GouveiaProblem statement: Applying 15N techniques to accurately determine the fate of fixed ammonium (NH4f) in the strongly and weakly held pools require modifications to existing methodologies. Modifications are necessary for measurement of total NH4f in soils by direct digestion with 5 M HF: 1 M HCl, excluding alkali pretreatment, followed by distillation and quantification of NH4. Quantification by distillation was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,593 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Meta Node Fuzzy Metagraph and its Cluster AnalysisD. Gaur, A. Shastri, R. BiswasProblem statement: In this study researchers propose a new fuzzy graph theoretic construct called fuzzy metagraph and a new method of clustering finding the similar fuzzy nodes in a fuzzy metagraph. Approach: We adopted T-norms (Triangular Norms) functions and join two or more T-norms to cluster the fuzzy nodes. Fuzzy metagraph is the fuzzyfication of the crisp Metagraphs using fuzzy … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 6,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPoverty Alleviation and Sustainable Development: The Role of Social CapitalAli Asadi, Morteza Akbari, Hossain Shabanali Fami et al.Developing countries are facing dilemmas such as un-sustainability, and poverty, (especially rural poverty). Poor people are often seen as compelled to exploit their surrounding for short-term survival and are assumed to be the ones most exposed to natural resources degradation. In order that at the first; we review the extensive theoretical literature on social capital, poverty and sustainability and demonstrate … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 9,027 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of Certain Tetracyclines and Oxytetracyclines through Charge Transfer ComplexationKhairi M.S. FahelelbomProblem statement: Several studies were carried out to develop and validate a simple, rapid and accurate spectrophotometric method for the analysis of tetracycline (TC) and oxytetracycline (OTC) in the pure form and in pharmaceutical dosage forms, despite the varieties of these analytical techniques, the literature revealed that no spectrophotometric method for determination of tetracycline and oxytetracycline using charge transfer complexation … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 8,541 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Betaine Supplementation to Methionine Deficient Diet on Growth Performance and Carcass Characteristics of BroilersH. Sun, W.R. Yang, Z.B. Yang et al.Problem Statement: The efficacy of Methionine (Met) sparing effect of Betaine (BET) has been shown to be associated with dietary compositions, animal physiological stage and living conditions. This study was to determine the extent to which dietary Met could be replaced by BET in broiler chickens under the feeding conditions specific to Chinese poultry industry.Approach: A total of 900 day-old … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 14,162 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBrucellosis in Camels (Camelus dromedorius) in the south province of JordanHawari Azmi DawoodA study of the prevalence of camel brucellosis has been carried out in the south province of Jordan during the years 2006 and 2007. Six hundred forty camel sera from 44 herds were randomly collected and analyzed. Rose Bengal plate test was used to screen all serum samples. The positive samples were subjected to confirmation by complement fixation test. The … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 9,244 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGraph Based Segmentation in Content Based Image RetrievalP. S. Suhasini, K. S.R. Krishna, I. V.M. KrishnaProblem statement: Traditional image retrieval systems are content based image retrieval systems which rely on low-level features for indexing and retrieval of images. CBIR systems fail to meet user expectations because of the gap between the low level features used by such systems and the high level perception of images by humans. To meet the requirement as a preprocessing step … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,585 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating E-learning Programs: An Adaptation of Kirkpatrick's Model to Accommodate E-learning EnvironmentsThair M. HamtiniProblem Statement: Kirkpatrick's model for the evaluation of training programs has been a staple in institutional learning since 1959 and is easily applicable to any training program. Approach: This model, however, was developed for traditional learning environments and has been regarded as antiquated, especially when one took into consideration the fact that institutional learning has increasingly taken on the form … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,959 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Improved TCP Connection Protocol over Wireless Mobile Networks with Mobile Nodes HandoffMaen M. Al AssafProblem Statement: This study proposes a TCP layer protocol (Div-TCP) that aims to give a solution for communication over wireless mobile networks that have the occurrence of handoff at anytime. It describes a topology of wireless mobile network and the handoff process as an ordinary process in that type of networks which may cause segments losses. Approach: Wireless mobile networks … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,678 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Unequal Error Protection Using Maximum A- posteriori Probability Algorithm and Modified MAP in Additive White Gaussian Noise and Fading ChannelT. Gnanasekaran, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: In this study we propose a method to improve the performance of Maximum A-Posteriori Probability Algorithm, which is used in turbo decoder. Previously the performance of turbo decoder is improved by means of scaling the channel reliability value. Approach: A modification in MAP algorithm proposed in this study, which achieves further improvement in forward error correction by means … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 6,689 accessesView PDFCite
