Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCharacterization of Aluminum Alloy-Based Nanocomposites Produced by the Addition of AL-TI5-B1 to the Matrix MeltHashem F. El-Labban, M. Abdelaziz, Essam R.I. MahmoudThe present study is an attempt to produce aluminum matrix nanocomposites using a certain aluminum alloy (which its melt has high fluidity) as a matrix material and reinforced with hard and stable fine (nano-sized) precipitates. Therefore, Al-Ti5-B1 master alloy and Al-Si alloy of high silicon content were proposed for preparation of such nanocomposites. Three nanocomposites were prepared by adding Al-Ti5-B1 … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 9 Jan 2014 · 7,123 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIDENTIFICATION AND CHARACTERIZATION OF EXTREME RAINFALLS DISTRIBUTION IN MALANG RESIDENCEAmran, Iriawan Nur, Subiono, IrhamahExtreme rainfalls often occur everywhere just in a moment, very difficult to be anticipated and produce very detrimental impact to the environment and human society. Floods and landslides are influenced by high variability of extreme rainfalls, especially in the watershed area for floods and the hills as well as mountains for landslides, such as in Malang Residence, East Java, Indonesia … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 30 Nov 2013 · 6,768 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF A PROXIMAL MACHINE VISION SYSTEM FOR OFF-SEASON WEED MAPPING IN BROADACRE NO-TILLAGE FALLOWSH. Liu, C. Saunders, S. H. LeeWeeds are among the most significant and costly environmental threats in Australian agriculture. Weeds compete with crop plants for moisture, nutrients and sunlight and can have a detrimental impact on crop yields and quality if uncontrolled. The distribution, size, density and species of the weeds are often heterogeneous in the cropping land. Instead of uniformly spray the same type of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 26 Nov 2013 · 7,233 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA SURVEY: PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION-BASED ALGORITHMS FOR GRID COMPUTING SCHEDULING SYSTEMSFaruku Umar Ambursa, Rohaya LatipBio-inspired heuristics have been promising in solving complex scheduling optimization problems. Several researches have been conducted to tackle the problems of task scheduling for the heterogeneous and dynamic grid systems using different bio-inspired mechanisms such as Genetic Algorithm (GA), Ant Colony Optimization (ACO), Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). PSO has been proven to have a relatively more promissing performance in dealing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 25 Nov 2013 · 6,656 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractENERGY EFFICIENT AND INTERFERENCE AWARE PROVISIONING IN VIRTUALIZED SERVER CLUSTER ENVIRONMENTMohan Raj Velayudhan Kumar, Shriram RaghunathanIT service providers, employ server virtualization as a main building block to improve system utilization, improve system manageability, reduce operational costs which includes energy consumption driving economies of scale with shared resources. Virtualization enables co-locating and efficient assignments of virtual servers within the bounds of limited number of heterogeneous physical servers, with Virtual Machines (VM) sharing the limited physical server … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 12 Nov 2013 · 6,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy on Follicle Stimulating Hormone Receptor Gene Polymorphisms in South Indian Women with Polycystic Ovarian SyndromeHimavanth Reddy Kambalachenu, Solomon Franklin Durairaj Paul, Sanjeeva Reddy Nellepalli, Perumal VenkatachalamPolycystic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) is the most common endocrine disorder of women in their reproductive ages. Though PCOS is a complex, heterogeneous disorder, but there is strong evidence for its genetic predisposition. The aim was to study the association of Follicle Stimulating Hormone Receptor (FSHR) gene polymorphisms rs1394205, rs6165 and rs6166 in south Indian women with PCOS. The present case … …Current Research in Medicine, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 4 Sep 2013 · 12,695 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTherapeutic Effects of Highly Purified De-Glycosylated Gcmaf in the Immunotherapy of Patients with Chronic DiseasesLynda Thyer, Emma Ward, Rodney Smith et al.The de-Glycosylated vitamin D binding protein is a powerful Macrophage Activating Factor (GcMAF) that shows multiple biological effects that could be exploited in the immunotherapy of tumours, viral infections and autism. Here we report the observation of a series of clinical cases describing the results obtained administering highly purified GcMAF to patients with diverse types of chronic diseases. These are … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 20 Aug 2013 · 11,858 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNON-COOPERATIVE IRIS RECOGNITION: A NOVEL APPROACH FOR SEGMENTATION AND FAKE IDENTIFICATIONM. Rajeev Kumar, M. Dilsath Fathima, K. Kiruthika, M. S. SaravananIris recognition, the ability to recognize and distinguish individuals by their pattern, is the most reliable biometric in terms of recognition and identification performance. However, performance of these systems is affected by the heterogeneous images (regarding focus, contrast, or brightness) and with several noise factors (iris obstruction and reflection) when the cooperation is not expectable from the subject. Current Iris … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 6 Aug 2013 · 6,744 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Souple Wireless Grid Applications for Horde of Jobs by Sensible Centrality Scheduling with RediteP. Vijaya Karthick, V. VasudevanThe Grid Computing has emerged as a thorny platform to tackle numerous large-scale issues, particularly in science and engineering domains. One of the primary issues related to the economical and effective utilization of heterogeneous resources in a Grid scheduling. It is mainly due to the dynamic nature of grid. Grid scheduling could be subtle higher cognitive process that operates at … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 28 May 2013 · 6,730 accessesView PDFCite
