FrezzaThe healthcare industry, nonexistent a century ago, is now a huge fraction of the U.S. economy and an intricate business with a multitude of legislative problems. This review article will summarize the recent history of the healthcare industry, evaluate how hospitals today make and lose money, and provide a few projections about the future of healthcare in America. The hope … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,610 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Evaluation of a QoS-Aware Mechanism for Polling-Based High-Speed Network InterfacesSalman Al-Qahtani, Tarek Helmy, Khaled SalahThe explosive growth of the high-speed multimedia networks and the widespread use of web-based related applications place new demands on the network servers. The network end systems such as PC-Router, network server and host connected to high speed links must satisfy QoS requirements for multimedia traffics such as delay and loss ratio. Most works on operating systems support for high-speed … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,565 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPublicly Funded Education and Human Capital in the Presence of a Convex-Concave Education FunctionBinh Tran-Nam, Công Nghê TruongThis study investigates an aggregative optimal growth model in which short-lived individuals obtain their labour skill through education. The process of human capital formation is described by an increasing, convex-concave education function relating the success rate to the educational expenditure per student. The cost of education is publicly funded by an income tax imposed on adult workers. Despite the apparent … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 13 · 7 Dec 2005 · 7,869 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHarmonic Elimination of Inverters using Blind Signal SeparationB. Justus Rabi, R. ArumugamHarmonics cause major problems in power system due to non linear loads. With the rapid growth in the utilization of the rectifier for critical loads, e.g. In computer or medical equipment the need for high quality uninterruptible power is increasing. The non-linear current drawn by the rectifier loads distort the output of UPS system. Mainly because of output filter impedance … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2005 · 6,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Model for Bioaccumulation of Metals in Crassostrea virginica from Apalachicola Bay, FloridaDennis A. Apeti, Elijah Johnson, Larry RobinsonKinetics of bioaccumulation of the trace metals (Cd and Zn) by C. virginica were investigated in this study. A computer program, Oyster Bioaccumulation Model (OBM), was developed to simulate the accumulation of the metals from both dissolved (water column) and particulate (food) phases by C. virginica. The model is based on two main attributes: (1) the oyster biological characteristics such … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,474 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEarly Cellular Responses of Purine Nucleoside-mediated Protection of Hypoxia-induced Injuries of Neuronal PC12 CellsBettina Tomaselli, Valerie Podhraski, Günther Böck, Gabriele Baier-BitterlichHypoxia in brain may lead to cell death by apoptosis and necrosis. In parallel adenosine, a powerful endogenous neuroprotectant is formed. We wanted to investigate the effect of adenosine and its purine nucleoside relatives, inosine and guanosine on early cellular responses to hypoxia. O2-sensitive neuronal PC12-cells were subjected to chemical hypoxia induced with rotenone, an inhibitor of mitochondrial complex I. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,853 accessesView PDFCite
