Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Integer Programming Formulations of the Generalized Travelling Salesman ProblemPetrica C. PopThe Generalized Travelling Salesman Problem, denoted by GTSP, is a variant of the classical travelling salesman problem (TSP), in which the nodes of an undirected graph are partitioned into node sets (clusters) and the salesman has to visit exactly one node from every cluster. In this paper we described six distinct formulations of the GTSP as an integer programming. Apart … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGenetic Variation and Relationship Between Turkish Flint Maize Landraces by RAPD MarkersA. OkumusA comparative characterization of 17 flint maize landraces (Zea mays L.) was carried out using RAPD markers. Fourteen primers giving reliable and consistent polymorphic bands amplified 125 fragments (89%) with an average of 8.90 fragment per primer. Genetic variation in 17 maize landraces was characterized based on dissimilarity matrix by UPGMA dendogram which has no association into distinct grouping with … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,977 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApproaches for Categorization of Reusable Software ComponentsParvinder Singh Sandhu, Janpreet Singh, Hardeep SinghReuse repositories manager manages the reusable software components in different categories and needs to find the category of reusable software components. In this paper, we have used different pure and hybrid approaches to find the domain relevancy of the component to a particular domain. Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (PLSA) approach, LSA, Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) technique, LSA Semi-Discrete Matrix Decomposition … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMobile Agents in Heterogeneous Networks: A Look on PerformanceR. B. Patel, Neeraj GoelMobile agents can be seen as a new paradigm for distributed computing. One characteristic of mobile agents is their autonomy and pro-activity. This article present a framework designed on top of PMADE (Platform for Mobile Agent Distribution and Execution) to support our research in this domain. Our framework consists of three modules. The Map Module collects information on the available … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 6,490 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOperation of an SLA-aware Grid FabricMatthias HovestadtResearch on Grid Computing started under purely technical questions of how to realize the virtualization of distributed resources. Now, the commercial user should be attracted to use the Grid. Future applications of the Next Generation Grid will demand for flexible negotiation mechanisms supporting various ways of Quality-of-Service (QoS) guarantees. In this context a Service Level Agreement (SLA) is a powerful … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,659 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSplitting Technique Initialization in Local PCAAlok Sharma, Kuldip K. Paliwal, Godfrey C. OnwuboluThe local Principal Component Analysis (PCA) reduces linearly redundant components that may present in higher dimensional space. It deploys an initial guess technique which can be utilized when the distribution of a given multivariate data is known to the user. The problem in initialization arises when the distribution is not known. This study explores a technique that can be easily … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 7,719 accessesView PDFCite
