Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHigh-Dose Vitamin D3 Intake Is Associated with Decreased Symptoms of Multiple SclerosisMichelle L. Steinwart, David M. DuriancikMultiple sclerosis (MS) is one of the most widespread disabling autoimmune neurological conditions of adults between the ages of 20 and 40 globally. Medical researchers do not completely understand the possible causes of MS, nor have they determined the rate of progression. A limited number of clinical trials conducted in recent years have explored the link between vitamin D deficiency … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2018 · 9,283 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Evaluation of UE Location Techniques in LTE NetworksYahia Zakaria, Lubomir IvanekThe goal of this research is to evaluate the location accuracy of User Equipment (UE) in Long Term Evolution (LTE) networks which depends on the timing advance parameters. The ability to locate the subscribers through the network is considered as a significant factor in wireless communication systems. The main method to geolocation based on specified distances from many base stations … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 5 Jan 2017 · 8,028 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Optimization of Physics Simulations Through Genetic AlgorithmsOksana Shadura, Federico Carminati, Anatoliy PetrenkoThe GeantV R&D approach is revisiting the standard particle transport simulation approach to be able to benefit from “Single Instruction, Multiple Data” (SIMD) computational architectures or extremely parallel systems like coprocessors and GPUs. The goal of this work is to develop a mechanism for optimizing the programs used for High-Energy Physics (HEP) particle transport simulations using a “black-box” optimization approach. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 15, Issue 1 · 8 Jan 2019 · 8,091 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibody Responses to HIV-1 gp120 Hypervariable Regions in Six Long-Term Non-ProgressorsRebecca Rivera, Kyung Hee Kang, Murray B. Gardner et al.Our long-term goal is to discover the combination of host parameters that help some HIV-infected individuals to resist progression to AIDS. In this study, we examined antibody responses using multiple samples obtained from a cohort of Long-Term Non-Progressors (LTNPs). Our hypothesis is that antibody responses to variable regions of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein are involved in reducing the viral load … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 1 Jul 2016 · 7,649 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance of Multiple Linear Regression and Nonlinear Neural Networks and Fuzzy Logic Techniques in Modelling House PricesSiti Amri, Gurudeo Anand TularamHouse price prediction continues to be important for government agencies insurance companies and real estate industry. This study investigates the performance of house sales price models based on linear and non-linear approaches to study the effects of selected variables. Linear stepwise Multiple Regression (MR) and nonlinear models of Neural Network (NN) and Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy (ANFIS) are developed and compared. The … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Dec 2012 · 8,430 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuality of Service Aware Reverse Pathad-Hoc On-Demand Distance Vector ProtocolK. G. Santhiya, N. ArumugamMobile Ad-hoc Network (MANET) is aninfra structureless network that does not require any built-in infra structure and central control. Due to very fast mobility of nodes, there will be drastic changes in the network topology. So an adaptive routing protocol is needed for effective and reliable routing in MANET. Ad-hoc On-demand Distance Vector (AODV) routing protocol is the efficient and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 20 Sep 2012 · 7,061 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulti-Threshold based Scheduling for Multi-User Multiple-Input Multiple-Output SystemsK. Chanthirasekaran, M. A. BhagyaveniProblem statement: Multi-User Multi-Input Multi-Output (MU-MIMO) system had eventually used in 4th generation wireless networks either to achieved diversity gain or multiplexing gain. Many recent scheduling addresses the threshold based resource allocation where in resource were not utilized properly. Approach: In this study a new Multi Threshold Based Channel Aware Scheduling (MTCAS) was proposed for performance improvement and proper resource … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 7 · 21 Jun 2012 · 6,938 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Theories of Complexity and Chaos to Economic MisgovernancePartha Gangopadhyay, Nasser Elkanj, Mustafa A. RahmanProblem statement: In this study we develop a comprehensive model involving local taxes, intergovernmental transfers and bureaucratic corruption to characterize a fiscal equilibrium in order to explain the provision of local (public) expenditure in developing nations. The main goal of the research is to explain economic misgovernance as an equilibrium phenomenon, which is therefore expected to persist over time despite … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 27 Jul 2011 · 7,375 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdaptable User Interface Based on the Ecological Interface Design Concept for Multiple Robots Operating Works with UncertaintyHiroshi FurukawaProblem statement: When supervising a team of semi-autonomous robots, the operator’s task is not only the manipulation of each robot but also achievement of the top goal that is assigned to the entire team of humans and robots. The operators are demanded to comprehend highly complex states and make appropriate decisions in dynamic environment using the limited cognitive resources.
