Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTopology Discovering and Power saving Mechanism for Routing in a Tree of Ad-hoc Wireless NetworksArwa ZabianPower management in mobile network is an open challenges where the power level in the network influences the network life time. However, there are a trade off between the power consumption and the connectivity in mobile networks. We present a topology control mechanism and a routing protocol for Ad-Hoc wireless networks that chooses the shortest path given the lower power … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 6,555 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Web-based Interactive Real Laboratory for Process Engineering EducationMaher Chaabene, Kamel Mkaouar, Mohamed OualiAn online supervision and control of a laboratory designed for process engineering education was conceived. The principal aim was to minimise the time access of an operator when manipulating laboratory features. Hence, the Time delay due to Internet traffic was overcome by using a Web Embedded Server (WES). A human-computer interactive interface using JAVA Script was developed so as to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,729 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAFLPs in Warmblood Sporting Horses: Genetic Correlation with Height at the WithersV. Sanchez, C. Lemus, A. Inchaustegui et al.The Mexican army produces Warmblood horses for jumping proposes. However, breeding is based on phenotype and stallions are selected stepwise until the end of growth, representing a high care and maintenance cost. In this work using 64 selective primer combinations and AFLP technology we identified specific molecular markers related with height at the withers measurements of Warmblood horses. AFLPs generated … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,755 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSurface Properties of Cell-treated Polyethylene TerephthalateBing Shi, Hong Liang, Thomas B. Kuhn, Lawrence K. DuffyThe materials used in artificial joints undergo degradation through fatigue and corrosive wear in human body. The lifetime for well-designed artificial joints like hip joints is at most 12 years and a patient will usually have two total joint replacements during his/her lifetime. Tissue engineering, an alternative to total joint implantation, is the replacement of damaged tissue with the tissue … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLaboratory Diameteral Fatigue Performance of Stone Matrix Asphalt with Cellulose Oil Palm FiberRatnasamy Muniandy, Bujang B.K. HuatStone Matrix Asphalt (SMA) is a gap-graded mix that is gaining popularity worldwide. Generally, gap graded mixes are thought to be weak in fatigue resistance. In this study, cellulose fibers were pre-blended in PG64-22 binder with fiber proportions of 0.2%, 0.4%, 0.6%, 0.8% and 1.0% by weight of aggregates. The fiber-modified binder showed improved rheological properties and showed that the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,984 accessesView PDFCite
