Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordProgressive Content-Sensitive Data Retrieval in Sensor NetworksBo Yang, Manohar MareboyanaProblem statement: For a sensor network comprising autonomous and self-organizing data sources, efficient similarity-based search for semantic-rich resources (such as video data) has been considered as a challenging task due to the lack of infrastructures and the multiple limitations (such as band-width, storage and energy). While the past research discussed much on routing protocols for sensor networks, few works have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,849 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDetermining Potential Sites for Runoff Water Harvesting using Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems-Based Modeling in SinaiHossam H. Elewa, Atef A. Qaddah, Ayman A. El-FeelProblem statement: Sinai is increasingly suffering from an overwhelming water crisis. Runoff Water Harvesting (RWH) could be a solution for this problem. The determined promising drainage basins for RWH could be used by the decision makers to propose appropriate controlling systems to overcome the problem of water scarcity and for implementing runoff farming and rain-fed agriculture. Approach: Remote sensing, geographic … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 15 Feb 2012 · 8,488 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordHybrid Algorithm for Optimal Load Sharing in Grid ComputingD. Ramesh, A. KrishnanProblem statement: Grid Computing is the fast growing industry, which shares the resources in the organization in an effective manner. Resource sharing requires more optimized algorithmic structure, otherwise the waiting time and response time are increased and the resource utilization is reduced. Approach: In order to avoid such reduction in the performances of the grid system, an optimal resource sharing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 5 Nov 2011 · 7,524 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordField Assessment of Anthracnose Disease Response for the Sorghum Germplasm Collection from the Mopti RegionJ. E. ErpeldingProblem statement: Sorghum anthracnose (Colletotrichum sublineolum) is a highly variable pathogen and new sources of host plant resistance are required for the development of resistant sorghum varieties. Germplasm collections are an important source of host plant resistance and screening germplasm will be essential to identify new sources of resistance. Approach: The sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) collection from the Mopti region of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,217 accessesView PDF Cite
