Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Hyper Clustering Algorithms in Mobile Network PlanningLamiaa Fattouh Ibrahim, Hesham A. SalmanProblem statement: As a large amount of data stored in spatial databases, people may like to find groups of data which share similar features. Thus cluster analysis becomes an important area of research in data mining. Applications of clustering analysis have been utilized in many fields, such as when we search to construct a cluster served by base station in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 30 Aug 2011 · 7,508 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetection of Extended-Spectrum β Lactamases and AmpC β-Lactamase Production in Escherichia coli Causing Urinary Tract Infection among HIV and Non-HIV PatientsPadmavathy Kesavaram, Padma Krishnan, Rajasekaran SikhamaniProblem statement: Opportunistic infections have been documented as a leading cause of morbidity among HIV patients. Gram negative pathogens that elaborate beta-lactamases have been reported to be associated with increased morbidity and mortality, especially amongst immunocompromised patients on intensive care and high-dependency units. The most common mechanism of β-lactam drug resistance in Escherichia coli include ESBL, AmpC production. Approach: In … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 18 Aug 2011 · 7,837 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) System Capacity with Spatial CorrelationsT. Gunasekaran, K. R. Shankar KumarProblem statement: Today’s wireless technologies just won’t get us to the hyper connectivity of uninterrupted access from any mobile device with unlimited bandwidth at real-time speeds. This is due to the low data throughput and scarcity in spectrum. Approach: Under the condition of uncorrelated antenna elements, capacity of the Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) system can be increased linearly with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 4 Aug 2011 · 8,117 accessesView PDFCite

R. Babu, P. V.S. SrinivasProblem statement: Electromagnetic Radiation from mobile hand set is identified as one of the side effects for increasing rate of brain tumor. Due to this reason, Mobile phone industries are attentive towards safety issues of human health. Specific Absorption Rate is one of the important parameter while modeling the radiation effect on human head. Brain material with homogeneity is treated … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 16 Jul 2011 · 6,701 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGPS Ionospheric Total Electron Content and Scintillation Measurements during the October 2003 Magnetic StormMohammad Awad Momani, Takialddin A. Al Smadi, Farouq M. Al Taweel, Khaldoon A. GhaidanProblem Statement: Ionospheric scintillations, cause significant effects on satellite signals for communication and navigation in equatorial region and polar regions mainly during sever magnetic storms periods. This phenomenon is not fully understood due to few studies performed. The study investigates variability of Total Electron Content (TEC) and ionospheric scintillation during October 2003 magnetic storm over Antarctica using ground based GPS … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 13 Jul 2011 · 8,514 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Conceptual Model of Knowledge Sharing and Market Orientation in the Tourism SectorChien Mu Yeh, Han Ning Hu, Shu Hsien TsaiProblem statement: Marketing scholars have emphasized the importance of market orientation. While a number of studies discover the positive influence of market orientation on a variety of organizations phenomena, the understanding of factors that facilitate market orientation is limited. This study develops a conceptual model in which knowledge sharing is proposed to be the antecedent to three perspectives of market … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPAPR Reduction Using BPSO/PTS and STBC in MIMO OFDM SystemKarima El Mouhib, Ahmed Oquour, Younes Jabrane et al.Problem statement: The Multiple Input Multiple Output (MIMO) Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) system has been receiving a great attention, as one of solutions for achieving high speed, efficient and high-quality service for the wireless communications.
