Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstablishment and Evaluation of the Vegetative Community in A Surface Flow Constructed Wetland Treating Industrial Park ContaminantsC.C. Galbrand, A.M. Snow, A.E. Ghaly, R. CôtéA surface flow constructed wetland, designed to curve in a kidney shape in order to increase the length to width ratio to 5:1 was used to treat runoff from an industrial park. A natural wetland system located approximately 200 m downstream of the constructed wetland was selected to act as the vegetative community model for the constructed wetland. The selected … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlastic Solid Waste Assessment in the State of Kuwait and Proposed Methods of RecyclingS. Al-Salem, M. Al-SamhanA proper assessment of Solid Plastic Waste (SPW) in Kuwait will provide a greater understanding to the industry of plastic manufacturing and manufacturers as well as direct the strategic future plans proposed into execution. This research show the results obtained after a years survey and study of plastic solid waste in the state of Kuwait and the surrounding region in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,420 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractpmonpp: Pthread Monitor PreprocessorJinhua GuoMonitors have become an exceedingly important synchronization mechanism because they are a natural generalization of the object-oriented programming. A monitor construct encapsulates private data with public methods to operate on that data. Although the Pthread library contains dozens of functions for threading and synchronization, it does not provide direct support for the monitor. Students must explicitly provide mutual exclusion around … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2006 · 6,750 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScenarios Analysis of Tourism DestinationsAnastasios Michailidis, Fotis ChatzitheodoridisThis study describes a multi-criteria decision-making framework employed to evaluate and rank three tourism destinations, located in the northern and central Greece. Additionally, innovatory elements are the incorporation of differing levels of socioeconomic data (destination image and destination personality) within the decision framework and the direct determination of the PROMETHEE II preference thresholds. The developed methodology provides a user-friendly approach, … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,493 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimating the Optimal Farm Size under Uncertainty: an Application of Real Options MethodologyAnastasios Ch. Michailidis, Konstadinos A. MattasFarm structure and optimal farm size have always attracted the interest of research as they constitute some of the intense problems of farm efficiency and farm income. Although several approached have been employed to handle with this problem a real options approach can significantly contribute on this matter. This article provides an empirical example of applying real options approach in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDatComNet: Designing an Intelligent Visual Tool for Teaching Data Communication and Network Information SystemsAbdel B. Salem, Ibrahiem M.M. El Emary, Hussain F. SindiDatComNet is a tutorial tool designed to assist students in understanding the concepts of designing, implementing and managing the data communication networks. It is particularly useful for computer science and computer engineering students in computer communication network courses. The DatComNet interface is written in C++ and clips. The use of Java as the language of implementation provides platform independent access … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2006 · 6,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordA Derivative-Free Optimization Method for Solving Classification ProblemParvaneh Shabanzadeh, Malik Abu Hassan, Wah June LeongProblem statement: The aim of data classification is to establish rules for the classification of some observations assuming that we have a database, which includes of at least two classes. There is a training set for each class. Those problems occur in a wide range of human activity. One of the most promising ways to data classification is based on … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,510 accessesView PDFCite
