Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Firefly-Inspired Scheme for Energy-Efficient Transmission Scheduling Using a Self-Organizing Method in a Wireless Sensor NetworksZeyad Ghaleb Al-Mekhlafi, Zurina Mohd Hanapi, Mohamed Othman, Zuriati Ahmad ZukarnainVarious types of natural phenomena are regarded as primary sources of information for artificial occurrences that involve spontaneous synchronization. Among the artificial occurrences that mimic natural phenomena are Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) and the Pulse Coupled Oscillator (PCO), which utilizes firefly synchronization for attracting mating partners. However, the PCO model was not appropriate for wireless sensor networks because sensor nodes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 10 · 11 Dec 2016 · 7,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study on Energy Efficient in Traveling Wave Pulse Coupled Oscillator for Wireless Sensor NetworksZeyad Ghaleb Al-Mekhlafi, Zurina Mohd Hanapi, Mohamed Othman, Zuriati Ahmad ZukarnainWSNs are unable to afford simultaneous transmission and reception of data and for most scenarios, the battery replacement is impossible upon the exhaustion of a node's battery energy. Thus, energy efficient protocols constitute vital design requirements for the WSN as a whole in order to increase the lifetime and ensure successful transmission of data from sensor node source to target, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 11 · 21 Nov 2016 · 7,358 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArchitecture of Low Power Energy Harvester Using Hybrid Input of Solar and Thermal for Laptop or Notebook: A ReviewHanani Mohamed Nadzirin, Jahariah Sampe, Muhammad Shabiul Islam, Noorfazila KamalThis paper aims to develop and design the architecture of Low Power Hybrid Energy Harvester (LPHEH) using the hybrid input of solar and thermal that can be harvested for self-powered laptop or notebook. This research will focus on the development of the high performance boost power converter to power up any laptop or notebook and design power management system of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 11 Sep 2016 · 7,642 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractArchitecture of an Ultra-Low-Power Fully Autonomous Universal Power Conditioner of Energy Harvester for Wireless Sensor Networks: A ReviewYeo Kim Heng, Md. Shabiul Islam, Susthitha Menon et al.A fully autonomous Universal Power Conditioner (UPC) that can accept energy from any micro-energy harvester (e.g., photovoltaic, thermoelectric, electromagnetic, piezoelectric etc.) is proposed. Generally, UPC removes the need of multiple optimized source specific converters. But, the proposed UPC architecture will be Ultra-Low-Power (ULP) with maximized efficiency to support the low energy levels generated by harvesting sources. This UPC uses a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 28 Mar 2016 · 7,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGOVERNMENTAL CONTROL OF THE FORMATION EFFICIENCY OF EDUCATIONAL CLUSTERS AT THE REGIONAL LEVELNina Ivanovna Larionova, Tatiana Valerievna Yalyalieva, Dmitry Leonidovich Napolskikh, Victor Evgenevich ShebashevStudying the cluster institutionalization processes in the modern practices of the social development allows determining the formation trends of an efficient governmental control system at the subfederal level. The efficiency parameters suggested by the author for the cluster policy implementation for the governmental control purposes, such as density, integrity, complementarity and institutional sphere conductivity will allow controlling the development efficiency … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 10 · 1 Dec 2014 · 5,636 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE EFFECT OF AGRICULTURAL EXTENSION SERVICE ON THE TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF TEFF (ERAGROSTISTEF) PRODUCERS IN ETHIOPIAAsres Elias, Makoto Nohmi, Kumi Yasunobu et al.Teff (Eragrostistef) is a major staple food crop in Ethiopia, but smallholder teff production is characterized by persistently low average yield. A major government effort aimed at raising the productivity and competitiveness of smallholder agriculture in Ethiopia involved reforming and implementing agricultural extension service known as Participatory Demonstration and Training Extension System (PADETES). Therefore, this study investigates the effect of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 21 Dec 2013 · 9,529 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Hybrid Approach for Node Co-Operation Based Clustering in Mobile Ad Hoc NetworksC. Sathiyakumar, K. DuraiswamyA Mobile Ad-Hoc Network (MANET) is termed as a set of wireless nodes which could be built with infrastructure less environment where network services are afforded by the nodes themselves. In such a situation, if a node refuses to co-operate with other nodes, then it will lead to a considerable diminution in throughput and the network operation decreases to low … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 26 Mar 2013 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
