Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titlePhenomenon of Thrips (Thysanoptera) Attack on Chili Plant (Capsicum annuum L.)Asni Johari, Siti Herlinda, Chandra Irsan, Yulia PujiastutiPhenomenon of Thrips (Thysanoptera) Attacks on Chili Plant (Capsicum annuum L.). Thrips are insects that damage agricultural plants such as chili plants (Capsicum annuum L.). The attacks which was caused by the thrips starting from mild to severe attacks. In Jambi province there was not any report about the attacks phenomenon of thrips on chili plants. The research aimed to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 19 Jul 2016 · 8,065 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA New Innovative Cooling Law for Simulated Annealing AlgorithmsAntonella Certa, Toni Lupo, Gianfranco PassannantiThe present paper proposes an original and innovative cooling law in the field of Simulated Annealing (SA) algorithms. Particularly, such a law is based on the evolution of different initial seeds on which the algorithm works in parallel. The efficiency control of the new proposal, executed on problems of different kind, shows that the convergence quickness by using such a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 6 · 16 Jul 2015 · 6,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleMeasurements of Mitral Annular Displacement in 2D Echocardiography ImagesFaten A. Dawood, Rahmita W. Rahmat, Suhaini B. Kadiman et al.Mitral Annular Displacement (MAD) in echocardiography has been described as a variation in mitral annulus position between the end-diastolic and the end-systolic in a complete cardiac cycle. It could be used as a rapid and reproducible method of determining the LV global systolic function and could be an easily detectable index for wall motion abnormalities. In this study, a computational … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 5 · 4 Jul 2015 · 6,850 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSIMULATED ANNEALING APPROACH TO COST-BASED MULTI- QUALITY OF SERVICE JOB SCHEDULING IN CLOUD COMPUTING ENVIROMENTMonir Abdullah, Mohamed OthmanCloud computing environments facilitate applications by providing visualized resources that can be provisioned dynamically. The advent of cloud computing as a new model of service provisioning in distributed systems, encourages researchers to investigate its benefits and drawbacks in executing scientific applications such as workflows. One of the fundamental issues in this environment is related to task scheduling. Cloud task scheduling … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 18 Mar 2014 · 7,651 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHybridization of Genetic Algorithm with Parallel Implementation of Simulated Annealing for Job Shop SchedulingThamilselvan Rakkiannan, Balasubramanie PalanisamyProblem statement: The Job Shop Scheduling Problem (JSSP) is observed as one of the most difficult NP-hard, combinatorial problem. The problem consists of determining the most efficient schedule for jobs that are processed on several machines. Approach: In this study Genetic Algorithm (GA) is integrated with the parallel version of Simulated Annealing Algorithm (SA) is applied to the job shop … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 25 Aug 2012 · 7,056 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleBilirubin Lowering Potential of Annona muricata (Linn.) In Temporary Jaundiced RatsFareed K.N. Arthur, Eric Woode, Ebenezer O. Terlabi, Christopher LarbieProblem statement: Annona muricata is used in Ghanaian traditional medicine for the treatment of jaundice. Work done has demonstrated A. muricata to be effective in treating carbon tetrachloride-and acetaminophen-induced hepatic damage, hepatic jaundice and toxicologically safe up to 1000 mg kg-1 in animals. Current study evaluated the bilirubin-lowering potential of A. muricata aqueous extract in phenylhydrazine-(40 mg kg-1) induced jaundice … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 23 May 2012 · 12,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleSentence Annotation based Enhanced Semantic Summary Generation from Multiple DocumentsA. Kogilavani, P. BalasubramanieProblem statement: The goal of document summarization is to provide a summary or outline of manifold documents with reduction in time. Sentence extraction could be a technique that is employed to pick out relevant and vital sentences from documents and presented as a summary. So there is a need to develop more meaningful sentence selection strategy so as to extract … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 17 May 2012 · 7,001 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Effect of Rapid Thermal Annealing Towards the Performance of Screen-Printed Si Solar CellShahrul Anizan, Cheow Siu Leong, Khairymaza Lee Yusri et al.Problem statement: Solar cells are used to capture the photons which generate the energy. However the efficiency of the cells to turn the amount of photon to electricity needs to be high and so the cells enhancement is needed. This involved the whole process of the developing of the cells, thus annealing process is one of the important steps that … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,224 accessesView PDFCite
