Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Robust Recognition System for Pecan Weevil using Artificial Neural NetworksSaleh Mufleh Al-SaqerProblem statement: Pecan Weevil is a widely found pest among pecan trees and these pests are known to cause significant damage to the pecan trees resulting in enormous annual losses to pecan growers. Traditional identification techniques for pecan weevil include traps with pheromones to detect the infestation of these pests. However, these traditional methods require expensive labor hours to set-up … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 14 Jul 2012 · 6,831 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Multipath Energy Efficient Congestion Control Scheme for Wireless Sensor NetworkB. Chellaprabha, S. Chenthur PandianProblem statement: In most of the existing works either detection of congestion or scheme for congestion control in wireless sensor networks are presented. A very few works have been done, taken in to account of both congestion detection and congestion control. In most of the congestion detection works they have not achieved accuracy in detecting congestion and have resulted with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 20 Mar 2012 · 6,857 accessesView PDF Cite
