Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHistory Based Probabilistic Backoff AlgorithmNarendran Rajagopalan, C. MalaPerformance of Wireless LAN can be improved at each layer of the protocol stack with respect to energy efficiency. The Media Access Control layer is responsible for the key functions like access control and flow control. During contention, Backoff algorithm is used to gain access to the medium with minimum probability of collision. After studying different variations of back off … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 29 Aug 2012 · 7,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleThe Diatom Stratigraphy of Rawapening Lake, Implying Eutrophication HistoryTri Retnaningsih Soeprobowati, Suwarno Hadisusanto, Peter Gell, Atun ZawadskiProblem statement: The use of diatoms to reconstruct past ecological conditions in lakes is well established. Diatoms are microscopic algae that forms siliceous frustules which allow them to preserve well in sediments. Rawapening Lake is one of 15 Indonesian lakes identified as 2010-2014 National Priority Lakes. Naturally, Rawapening is a tectono-volcanic lake.

Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHistory Based Contention Window Control in IEEE 802.11 MAC Protocol in Error Prone ChannelAli Balador, Ali Movaghar, Sam JabbehdariProblem statement: IEEE 802.11 Medium Access Control (MAC) protocol is one of the most implemented protocols in this network. The IEEE 802.11 controls the access to the share wireless channel within competing stations. The IEEE 802.11 DCF doubles the Contention Window (CW) size for decreasing the collision within contending stations and to improve the network performances but it is not … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Jul 2010 · 7,662 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleFollowing the Heart: The History of the J-Curve in Stroke RiskShoshana Reshef, Daniel ReshefReports of a J-shaped relationship between blood pressure and ischemic stroke are rare. The purpose of this study was to trace the published history of the J-curve theory as it relates to blood pressure, ischemic heart disease and eventually ischemic stroke. The J-curve publications on the relationship between Diastolic Blood Pressure (DBP) and ischemic stroke suggest that in certain populations, … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,356 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleNonlinear Models and Experimental Investigation of Lifetime History of HSC Flexural BeamsK. Masti, A.A. Maghsoudi, R. RahgozarThe nature of fracture in high strength concrete is brittle and therefore, the investigation behavior of flexural high strength concrete (HSC) members is important. This paper describes the deflection, strain and energy ductility and the lifetime history of experimental and theoretical analysis of six caste reinforced HSC beams with different percentage of ρ and ρρ'. The beams were loaded incrementally … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 6,755 accessesView PDFCite
