Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Method for Testing Digital to Analog Converter in Static RangeK. Hariharan, S. Gouthamraj, B. Subramaniam et al.Problem statement: Linearity testing methods for DAC usually involves usage of non-linear analog components, which are indeed prone to various errors. Few other testing methodologies involve complex circuitry for measuring exactitude of DAC. Practically, it is difficult to build those as Built In Self Test (BIST) due to complexity of calculation, which demands more usage of ALU (or core of … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,458 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Neighbors Atomic Coordinate Tables and Plot-Graphical Representation for Tertiary Structure in ProteinsHamed Fawareh, Jehad Q. Odeh, Nawal Al-OmoushProblem statement: Contact map prediction is an interesting method for its application in fold recognition and protein tertiary structure determination. Approach: This study developed a method to predict a protein tertiary structure from the amino acid sequence using contact map. The method showed prediction a protein in a binary space of exposure states. The approach produced several procedures to finds … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 6,892 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Intracerebroventricular Administration of W-7, A Calmodulin Inhibitor, Attenuate the Development of Morphine Tolerance in RatsGholamreza Sepehri, Vahid Sheibani, Afrooz Azarang et al.Problem statement: The present study was performed to determine the effect of Intracerebroventricular (ICV) administration of W-7, a specific calmodulin inhibitor, on the analgesic effect and development of tolerance to antinociceptive effect of acute and chronic morphine administration respectively. Approach: This study was carried out on male wistar rats, weighing 200-250 g. For acute experimental protocol, Morphine was injected intraperitonealy … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,752 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUninterruptible Power Supply Using Solar Rechargeable BatteryJ.C. Osuwa, E.C. IgwiroProblem statement: A 600 watts Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS) that consists of an inverter operated with solar rechargeable battery has been constructed and characterized. Approach: An inverter of high switching frequency and high power handling, a sensor, an oscillator and other electronic devices were employed in the circuitry. Performance tests involved measurements of supply currents and voltages from the battery … …Physics International, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,412 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDropping down the Maximum Item Set: Improving the Stylometric Authorship Attribution Algorithm in the Text Mining for Authorship InvestigationTareef Kamil Mustafa, Norwati Mustapha, Masrah Azrifah Azmi, Nasir B. SulaimanProblem statement: Stylometric authorship attribution is an approach concerned about analyzing texts in text mining, e.g., novels and plays that famous authors wrote, trying to measure the authors style, by choosing some attributes that shows the author style of writing, assuming that these writers have a special way of writing that no other writer has; thus, authorship attribution is the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,533 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Extraction for Characterization of Breast Lesions in Ultrasound Echography and ElastographyShirley Selvan, M. Kavitha, S. Shenbagadevi, S. SureshProblem statement: Elastography is developed as a quantitative approach to imaging linear elastic properties of tissues to detect suspicious tumors. We propose an automatic feature extraction method in ultrasound elastography and echography for characterization of breast lesions. Approach: The proposed algorithm was tested on 40 pairs of biopsy proven ultrasound elastography and echography images of which 11 are cystic, 16 … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,315 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Policy-Based Admission Control Scheme for Voice over IP NetworksSami Alwakeel, Agung PrasetijoProblem statement: In Voice Over IP (VOIP) network, when more calls are admitted to the network, more voice packet traffic is created. Since bandwidth is always limited, this may result network congestion and/or may affect voice quality. Thus, we needed a mechanism for improving the Quality of Service (QoS) by controlling VOIP calls admission. Approach: Given a specified bandwidth and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2009 · 6,609 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPersonal Computer Based Clinical Programming Software for Auditory ProsthesesK. Rajakumar, P. Seetha RamaiahAuditory Prostheses (AP) are widely used electronic devices for patients suffering with severe to profound senosorineural deafness by electrically stimulating the auditory nerve using an electrode array surgically placed in the inner ear. AP mainly contains external Body Worn Speech Processor (BWSP) and internal Implantable Receiver Stimulator (IRS). BWSP receives an external sound or speech and generates encoded speech data … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2009 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHydraulic Characteristics and Pore Water Flow Rule in Constant Rate of Strain ConsolidationA. Ahmadi, A. H. Hoorfar, H. Rahimi, A. SoroushProblem statement: At present study Constant Rate of Strain (CRS) consolidation under Non-Darcy condition was investigated. Approach: In this study a governing conditions on pore water flow were investigated using proposed equation and experimental tests.

Results: Results of these experiments and there comparison with proposed equation showed … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 7,206 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSolving the Near-Far Problem in Dynamic Frequency Hopping-Optical Code Division Multiple Access using Power ControlW. J.M. Al-galbi, M. Mokhtar, A. F. Abas et al.Problem statement: In this study, a distributed power control algorithm is proposed for Dynamic Frequency Hopping Optical-CDMA (DFH-OCDMA) system. Approach: In general, the DFH-OCDMA can support higher number of simultaneous users compared to other OCDMA techniques. However, the performance of such system degrades significantly as the received power does lower than its minimum threshold. Results: This may obviously occur in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,521 accessesView PDFCite
