Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Evaluation of Anti-Stripping Additives Mixing in Road Surface Pavement MaterialsTienfuan Kerh, Yu-Min Wang, Yulern LinMost road surfaces in Taiwan are paved with asphalt concrete but the phenomena of rutting, cracking and stripping of the pavement are frequently occurring due to the effects of traffic flow, thermal variation and water erosion caused by rain. In this study, a series of experiments were performed to examine the effectiveness of anti-stripping fillers, which include; rock flour, rock … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,911 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEOS: Evolutionary Overlay Service in Peer-to-Peer SystemsL. I. Zhijun, Liao MinghongThe peer-to-peer (P2P) systems nowadays can be mainly classified into two categories: structured and structure-less systems based on their overlay organization. The structured systems can achieve determinate efficiency due to their rigorous structure with the cost of losing robustness and vice versa. We provide a semi-structured overlay based on the separation of routing structures and overlay organizations in this paper … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,349 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCreating Improved Models of Business Processes Through Statistical Analysis of Customer Orders with Multiple Types of ComplexityRaschid Ijioui, Heike Emmerich, Jürgen Hubert, Frank SchillerTo gain a better understanding of the internal work processes in service-oriented supply chains, it is very important to design models that are able to realistically describe the components of the supply chain. To meet this goal, it is necessary to find suitable statistical distributions of the processing times for the orders passing the chain. In this article we examine … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIdentification, Characterization and Quantification of Elastomeric/Plastomeric Waste for Sustainable Waste MinimizationKajal Yadav, Sangita, A. ChandraThe present study focuses on the importance of characterization of waste/post consumer polymers. In recent years sophisticated instrumental techniques played an important role in identification and characterization of polymers. Advances in computer techniques have been combined with analytical instruments to give analytical speed, resolution and minimal sample requirements unimagined a few years ago. The present study deals with the development … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,056 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Environmental Decision Support System Based on a Multidimensional PrototypeGeorgakellos Dimitrios, Macris AristomenisThe present study utilizes the principles and data provided by the Environmental Priority Strategies (EPS) methodology in order to create a multidimensional prototype, which intends to assist the damage assessment process in this kind of projects. The EPS system, based on Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) methodology, is developed to help designers and product developers in finding which one of two … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,620 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntroducing Song Form Intelligence into Streaming AudioKevin CurranWhen receiving streaming media over a low bandwidth wireless connection, users can experience not only packet losses but also extended service interruptions. These dropouts can last for as long as 15 sec. During this time no packets are received and if not addressed, these dropped packets cause unacceptable interruptions in the audio stream. A long dropout of this kind may … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,572 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccessing Applications from Multiple File Servers in a Computer NetworkJ. S.J. Daka, J. S. IsaacThis study proposes a technique of accessing applications from multiple file servers in a computer network that caters for a large user community. The technique is a step towards creating a computer network system that is simple to implement, scalable, easy to manage, transparent to the user and suitable for a university-type environment. The proposed technique has some features of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,765 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Evaluation of Aqueous and Freeze Dried Antigen for Sero-diagnosis of VL and PKDL Cases by DATSanjiva Bimal, Shubhankar K. Singh, P. K. Sinha et al.The efficacy of aqueous and freeze dried (FD) antigen was evaluated by direct agglutination test (DAT) for sero-diagnosis of visceral leishmaniasis. A total of 16 samples collected from 5 confirmed Kala-azar (KA) cases, 6 cases 2 each of filariasis, malaria, leprosy and 5 non-endemic healthy subjects were used in determination of cut off titre of both the antigens in DAT. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,834 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of RNA-DNA Duplex Base Triplets to Antisense DrugsJie Yang, Yao Leng, Ju BaoSixty-four sets of three-dimensional models of RNA-DNA duplex base triplets were constructed based on codons by homology modeling method using software InsightII on Indigo workstation, which should be helpful for the study of RNA-DNA annealing, the basis of nucleic acids interactions and some peculiar motifs for design antisense oligonucleotides. Our research result reveal that the energies (such as E, Ec, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,531 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Geo-Information Technology in the Study of Soil and Nutrients Loss by Water Erosion for three Different Land CoverMushtak T. Jabbar, C. A.I. Chong-Fa, Wang Tian-Wei, Shi Zhi-HuaThis research integrated the Revised Universal Soil Loss Equation (RUSLE) and the soil statistical analysis with RS and GIS techniques to quantify soil and nutrient loss risk. The Letianxi watershed, located in the southwest part of Hubei Province of China was taken as a case. A system was established for rating soil erodibility, slope length/gradient, rainfall erosivity and conservation practices. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,790 accessesView PDFCite
