Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFPGA Implementation of Power Aware FIR Filter Using Reduced Transition Pipelined Variable Precision GatingA. Senthilkumar, A. M. NatarajanWith the emergence of portable computing and communication system, power awareness is one of the major objectives of VLSI Design. This is its ability to scale power consumption based on the time-varying nature of inputs. Even though the system is not designed for being power aware, systems display variations in power consumption as conditions change. This implies, by the definition … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,317 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGamma Radiosensitivity Study on Chili (Capsicum annuum)Shairul Rizdiyandi Omar, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Shaharudin Saamin, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidInduced mutation by gamma irradiation has been found to be a very useful technique for crop improvement. Apart from this, the proper use of induced mutation in plant breeding has become a profitable approach. This investigation was carried out to determine the LD50 and effect of gamma rays on germination, plant height, survival percentage, root length, root dry weight and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 9,039 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Head Cluster Election Algorithm for Clustered Ad-Hoc NetworksArwa Zabian, Ahmed Ibrahim, Fadi Al-KalaniIn distributed system, the concept of clustering consists on dividing the geographical area covered by a set of nodes into small zones. In mobile network, the clustering mechanism varied due to the mobility of the nodes any time in any direction. That causes the partitioning of the network or the joining of nodes. Several existing centralized or globalized algorithm have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2008 · 7,437 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSome P-RAM Algorithms for Sparse Linear SystemsRakesh Kumar Katare, N.S. ChaudhariPRAM algorithms for Symmetric Gaussian elimination is presented. We showed actual testing operations that will be performed during Symmetric Gaussian elimination, which caused symbolic factorization to occur for sparse linear systems. The array pattern of processing elements (PE) in row major order for the specialized sparse matrix in formulated. We showed that the access function in2+jn+k contains topological properties. We … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,974 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSubacute Toxicity of Crocus Sativus L. (Saffron) Stigma Ethanolic Extract in RatsDaryoush Mohajeri, Ghafour Mousavi, Mehran Mesgari et al.The medicinal properties attributed to Crocus sativus L. (saffron) are extensive. The safety of saffron is important in relation to its medicinal applications. This study was performed to elucidate the possible toxic effects of ethanolic extract of Crocus sativus L. stigma on liver, kidney and some hematological parameters in rats. Wistar rats were randomly assigned into four groups of eight … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,565 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTherapeutic Effects of Phyllanthus Species: Induction of TNF-α-mediated Apoptosis in HepG2 Hepatocellular Carcinoma CellsSripathi M. Sureban, Dharmalingam Subramaniam, Paramasivam Rajendran et al.Phyllanthus species, especially P. amarus is a medicinal plant with hepatoprotective activity, believed to occur in part by inhibiting hepatitis B virus function. The pathogenesis mechanism of viral hepatitis is closely related to hepatocyte necrosis apoptosis. The aim of our study was to investigate the in vitro effects of extracts from three Phyllanthus species, P. urinaria, P. amarus and P. … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 9,009 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutritional control of HIV-AIDS-A case for SeleniumParisa Kalantari, Hema Vunta, Umamaheswari D. Palempalli et al.Selenium (Se) is a micronutrient that is incorporated into proteins. Some of the selenoenzymes such as GPXs and thioredoxin reductases exhibit glutathione peroxidase-dependent activities towards organic and inorganic peroxides. Thus, selenoenzymes play a pivotal role in mitigating oxidative stress caused by accumulation of peroxides. In this respect, selenoproteins may interfere with the transcription-driven by oxidative stress-dependent signaling mechanisms to influence … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,346 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCollapsibility and Volume Change Behavior of Unsaturated Residual SoilAzlan A. Aziz, Faisal H. Ali, chioong F. heng et al.Residual soils occur in most countries of the world but the greater areas and depths are normally found in tropical humid areas. In these places, the soil forming processes are still very active and the weathering development is much faster than the erosive factor. Most residual soil exhibit high suctions for most of the year. The absence of positive pore … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,127 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGamma Radiosensitivity Study on Long Bean (Vigna sesquipedalis)Ellyfa Kon, Osumanu Haruna Ahmed, Shaharudin Saamin, Nik Muhamad Ab. MajidThis study was conducted to determine the LD50 and effect of gamma ray on germination percentage, plant height, survival percentage, root length, root dry weight and shoot dry weight of seedlings derived from seeds of long bean (Vigna sesquipedalis). Seeds of this crop were treated with 300, 400, 500, 600 and 800 Gy gamma rays at Malaysian Institute of Nuclear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 8,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Sliding Mode Speed Control of an Induction MotorKais Jamoussi, Mohamed Ouali, Hassen CharradiField-oriented control was combined to robust sliding mode for motor speed control. A smooth continuous function was added in order to overcome chattering caused by Sliding Mode Controller (SMC). Simulation results showed that improvement made by our approach compared to classical PID control. …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,554 accessesView PDFCite
