Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Flexible and Reliable Architecture for Mobile Agent SecurityGhossoon M.W. Al-SaadoonProblem statement: Wireless application protocol is a protocol that makes it possible to surf the Internet from a cellular phone or other handheld wireless. Many of us that surf the Internet from home with a 56 kbps modem think that it is slow and a cell phone only uses 9.6 kbps so WAP has to take the lesser bandwidth into … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,324 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPublishing Geospatial Data through Geospatial Web Service and XML Database SystemPouria Amirian, Ali A. AlesheikhTechnically the spatial non-interoperability problem associated with current geospatial processing systems can be categorized as data and access non-interoperability. In GIS community, Open GIS Consortium (OGC) geospatial Web services have been introduced to overcome spatial noninteroperability problem associated with most geospatial processing systems. At the same time, in Information Technology (IT) world, the best solution for providing interoperability among heterogeneous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,836 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHistological Features and ki-67 Index In Cervical Atypical LesionsD. Cabibi, L. Giovannelli, M. Cacciatore et al.One of the most frequent challenges in routine diagnostic assessment of cervical biopsies consists of some lesions in which histological features of HPV infection are either inconsistently present or only mildly/focally evident. We named them Atypical Lesions (AL) because differential diagnosis with metaplastic/reactive lesions and LSIL is difficult. It would be important to identify among them those lesions that are … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,231 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Measurement of Copper (II) Ion Adsorption in Activated Carbon Fixed Bed ColumnsTanokkorn Banjonglaiad, Eric Croiset, Peter Silveston et al.Dynamic experiments were carried out on the adsorption of copper (II) ions in a laboratory packed bed of activated carbon. Both pulse and step change inputs were used. Measurements were reproducible and replicate measurements furnished nearly identical parameters for a heterogeneous model of the activated carbon bed assuming Langmuir adsorption isotherm. The initial concentration of copper (II) ion was 3 … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Aug 2008 · 6,862 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Analysis of Ontology Mediation ToolsRavi Lourdusamy, Gopinath GanapathyOntology mediation is enabled through interoperability of semantic data sources. It helps data sharing between heterogeneous knowledgebase and reuse by semantic applications. Ontology mediation includes operations such as, mapping, alignment, matching, merging and integration. After briefly describing these operations, this study selectively discusses set of methods, tools and data integration systems. It provides the researchers a comprehensive understanding of methods … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Biomechanical Composite Model to Determine Effective Elastic Moduli of the CNS Gray MatterMehdi Khoshgoftar, Siamak Najarian, Farhad Farmanzad et al.Brain tissue is a heterogeneous material with complicated microstructural features. Models based on microstructure can lead to more accurate and physically realistic predictions of mechanical characteristics of brain tissue. A two-step Mori-Tanaka/Voigt homogenization procedure is implemented into a 3D microstructurally-based multi-phase composite model, composed of randomly-oriented elastic axons, dendrites and neuronal cell bodies surrounded by an elastic matrix. The effects … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 7,775 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolicy-Based Security for Wireless Components in High Assurance Computer SystemsLuay A. Wahsheh, Jim Alves-FossTo enable the growth of wireless networks in high assurance computer systems, it is essential to establish a security engineering methodology that provides system security managers with a procedural engineering process to develop computer security policies. Our research demonstrates how wireless communication technology is deployed using the Multiple Independent Levels of Security (MILS) architecture for high assurance computer system design … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,329 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBeta-2-Microglobulin in Autism Spectrum DisordersPaula Goines, Joseph Schauer, Luke Heuer et al.Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are heterogeneous neurodevelopmental diseases of unknown etiology. There are no biological markers for ASD and current diagnosis is based on behavioral criteria. Recent data has shown that MHC I, a compound involved in adaptive immune function, is also involved in neurodevelopment, synaptic plasticity and behavior. It has been suggested that altered MHC I expression could play … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,560 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards an Exclusion Mutual Tolerant Algorithm to FailuresM. Senouci, A. Liazid, D. BenhamamouchThe distributed algorithmic is widely used in various economic and industrial fields as finance, medical, industry, telecommunication. New technologies are increasing rapidly. From now on, applications must associate two conditions: auto-execution on heterogeneous grid computers, on the one hand and on the other hand, satisfaction of the temporal and safety constraints. Hence this paper deals with performing an algorithm based … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 6,726 accessesView PDFCite
