Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards Growing Bario Rice on Lowland Soils: A Preliminary Nitrogen and Potassium Fertilization TrialMuyang Tawie Sulok Kevin, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Wan Yahaya Wan Asrina et al.A pot study was carried with the following objectives: (i) To investigate N and K uptake of Bario rice on Bekenu series (Tipik Tualemkuts), and (ii) To investigate N and K use efficiency of Bario rice on Bekenu series. Treatments evaluated were: (i) Bario rice under fertilized condition (T1), and (ii) Bario rice under unfertilized condition (T0). The experiment was … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,774 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeaker Identification: A Hybrid Approach Using Neural Networks and Wavelet TransformMuzhir Shaban Al-Ani, Thabit Sultan Mohammed, Karim M. AljeboryIn speaker identification systems, a database is constructed from the speech samples of known speakers. The approach implemented in this paper is hybrid, where the wavelet transform and neural networks are used together to form a system with improved performance. Features are extracted by applying a discrete wavelet transform (DWT), while a neural network (NN) is used for formulating the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,072 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHiding a Large Amount of Data with High Security Using Steganography AlgorithmNameer N. EL-EmamThis study deals with constructing and implementing new algorithm based on hiding a large amount of data (image, audio, text) file into color BMP image. We have been used adaptive image filtering and adaptive image segmentation with bits replacement on the appropriate pixels. These pixels are selected randomly rather than sequentially by using new concept defined by main cases with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 8,617 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Scale to Measure SuperstitionMd. Mahfuzul Huque, Ataharul Huq ChowdhuryThe purpose of the study was to construct a scale to measure superstition in a rural setting. A total of 31 statements or items expressing superstition were collected through reviewing relevant literature, consultation with extension experts, social scientists, progressive farmers and local leaders Statements were carefully examined and edited as per the criteria of Edwards[1]. The statements were employed to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,410 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Exact Algorithm for the Unbounded Knapsack Problem with Minimizing Maximum Processing TimeChanin Srisuwannapa, Peerayuth CharnsethikulWe address a variant of the unbounded knapsack problem (UKP) into which the processing time of each item is also put and considered, referred as MMPTUKP. The MMPTUKP is a decision problem of allocating amount of n items, such that the maximum processing time of the selected items is minimized and the total profit is gained as at least as … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,595 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Omega-3 Fatty Acids on Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) and F-wave Latency in Patients with Diabetic polyneuropathyNaser Zangiabadi, Mohamad N. Ahrari, Nouzar NakhaeeDiabetes mellitus with the prevalence rate of 8.9-12.3% in human population, ultimately leads to the peripheral nervous system involvement in many patients. It causes various types of polyneuropathies, which may manifest abnormalities such as impaired nerve conduction velocity (NCV) and prolonged F-wave latency. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of omega-3 fatty acids on NCV and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 9,272 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Complexity Performance Effective Task Scheduling Algorithm for Heterogeneous Computing EnvironmentsE. Ilavarasan, P. ThambiduraiA heterogeneous computing environment is a suite of heterogeneous processors interconnected by high-speed networks, thereby promising high speed processing of computationally intensive applications with diverse computing needs. Scheduling of an application modeled by Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is a key issue when aiming at high performance in this kind of environment. The problem is generally addressed in terms of task … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 9,663 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnhanced Route Re-Construction Method for Associativity Based Routing Protocol for Mobile Ad hoc NETworks (MANET)Fawaz A.M. Masoud, Said A. Shaar, Ayman Murad, Ghassan KanaanA mobile Ad-hoc NETwork (MANET) is wireless network composed of mobile nodes that are dynamically and randomly located in such a manner that the interconnections between nodes are capable of changing on a continual basis. In order to facilitate communication within the network, a routing protocol is used to discover routes between nodes. The primary goal of such an ad-hoc … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,542 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTopical Cyclosporine A in Corneal Graft RejectionMahmood Nejabat, Jafar Khoshghadam, Masoomeh Eghtedari, Hamid HosseiniCorneal graft rejection is now the most common cause of graft failure after penetrating keratoplasty. This study was designed to determine whether, addition of 2% topical cyclosporine (CSA) to local and systemic steroids in treatment of endothelial corneal allograft rejection, would improve the outcome. A prospective randomized treatment trial was carried out on 40 consecutive corneal graft recipients, presenting with … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,317 accessesView PDFCite
