Purposes: To examine the background of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 20 Apr 2011 · 8,276 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Effective Queue Management Scheme for Data CommunicationSheela Thavasi, Nityanandam NatarajanProblem statement: The growth in the needs of Internet applications that transmit massive amount of data has led to the emergence of Effective Queue Management. Approach: Queues were used to smooth spikes in incoming packet rates and to allow the router sufficient time for packet processing. When the waiting time is less a better queue management is ensured thereby resulting … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2011 · 7,762 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonks' Health: Holistic Health Care Model by Community ParticipationDecha Buates, Songkoon Chantachon, Kosit Paengsoi, Anongrit KangrangProblem statement: Monks’ health tended to be a continuous increased problem. They were groups who had limitations to access health services due to their monastic disciplines and their most importance for Buddhist institution. Without urgent solution, their normal way of life would have been affected. Approach: This research aimed to study current conditions and to develop monks’ holistic health care … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,593 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Methodology for Designing Radix-2n Serial-Serial MultipliersAbdurazzag Sulaiman AlmiladiProblem statement: The fast growth and increase in complexity of digital and image processing systems necessitate the migration from ad hoc design methods to methodological ones. Methodologies will certainly ease the trade off selection for those systems and shortens the design time. To increase those gained values and expand the searching space more appropriate methodologies need to be developed. Approach: … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2010 · 6,926 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUltrasonic Dental Scaler Performance Assessment with an Innovative CavitometerAntonio Henrique Alves Pereira, Camila Tirapelli, Lucimar Antonio RodolphoProblem statement: There is no specific instrument to test ultrasonic dental scalers used in dentistry. Approach: The aim of this research was to develop and test an innovative cavitometer for quantitative and automatic performance assessments of Ultrasonic Dental Scalers (UDS) through the acoustic emission produced by cavitation induced by the tip of the UDS ultrasonic transducer when immersed in aqueous … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,538 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRanking of Simultaneous Equation Techniques to Small Sample Properties and Correlated Random DeviatesA. A. Adepoju, J. O. OlaomiProblem statement: All simultaneous equation estimation methods have some desirable asymptotic properties and these properties become effective in large samples. This study is relevant since samples available to researchers are mostly small in practice and are often plagued with the problem of mutual correlation between pairs of random deviates which is a violation of the assumption of mutual independence between … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 6,598 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTwo-Step Robust Diagnostic Method for Identification of Multiple High Leverage PointsArezoo Bagheri, Habshah Midi, A.H.M. Rahmatullah ImonProblem statement: High leverage points are extreme outliers in the X-direction. In regression analysis, the detection of these leverage points becomes important due to their arbitrary large effects on the estimations as well as multicollinearity problems. Mahalanobis Distance (MD) has been used as a diagnostic tool for identification of outliers in multivariate analysis where it finds the distance between normal … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,308 accessesView PDFCite
