Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeciation and Availability of Cr, Ni and Co IN Serpentine Soils of Ranau, SabahMahsa Tashakor, Wan Zuhairi Wan Yaacob, Hamzah MohamadProblem statement: Serpentine soils are known as a geogenic source of heavy metal pollution because they are anomalously rich in chromium, nickel and cobalt. Approach: However, only that portion of these metals which is available in the ecosystem and incorporates in the bio-transformation processes, is dangerous for the environment. Availability of Cr, Ni and Co depends on their speciation into … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 20 Mar 2013 · 13,558 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Algorithm for Mining Spatially Co-located Moving ObjectsG. Manikandan, S. SrinivasanMining co-location patterns from spatial databases may disclose the types of spatial features which are likely located as neighbors’ in space. Accordingly, we present an algorithm previously for mining spatially co-located moving objects using spatial data mining techniques and Prim’s Algorithm. In the previous technique, the scanning of database to mine the spatial co-location patterns took much computational cost. In … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 2 Mar 2013 · 6,654 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimized Local Ternary Patterns: A New Texture Model with Set of Optimal Patterns for Texture AnalysisG. Madasamy Raja, V. SadasivamTexture analysis is one of the important as well as useful tasks in image processing applications. Many texture models have been developed over the past few years and Local Binary Patterns (LBP) is one of the simple and efficient approach among them. A number of extensions to the LBP method have been also presented but the problem remains challenging in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2013 · 6,955 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Method for the Development of Platform Models in the Model Driven Architecture ContextInali Wisniewski Soares, Luciane Telinski Wiedermann Agner, Paulo Cezar Stadzisz, Jean Marcelo SimaoThe application of the Model Driven Architecture (MDA) approach to the design of embedded software based on Real-Time Operating Systems (RTOS) is encouraged by the fact that such software has a wide variety of platforms. In this way, the creation of methods for the development of platform models that meet such diversity of platforms is necessary. This study proposes a … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 11 · 7 Nov 2012 · 6,463 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibiotic Resistance and Chromium Reduction Pattern Among ActinomycetesPreeti Jain, Alina Amatullah, Samiul Alam Rajib, Hasan Mahmud RezaActinomycetes, one of the most important groups of microbes, exhibit many interesting activities such as degradation and transformation of organic and metal substrates together with production of antibiotics. With these bioactivities, actinomycetes would play an important role in the webs of the marine environment. The present study was designed to evaluate the antibiotic resistance pattern, antibiotic producing potential and chromium … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Jun 2012 · 8,908 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparison of the Business Environments of Two Emerging EconomiesCelina Garcia, Zaida L. MartinezProblem statement: Brazil and Mexico, the two largest emerging economies of Latin America, have undergone significant transformation in the past decades providing unique business opportunities to international entrepreneurs. To take advantage of the business opportunities in these emerging markets, however, entrepreneurs need a basic understanding of the economic and regulatory developmental patterns that have characterized each country. Conclusion/Recommendations: This study … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 14 Feb 2012 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Time Series: An Application to Tourism Demand ForecastingMuhammad Hisyam Lee, Maria Elena Nor, Suhartono et al.Problem statement: Forecasting is very important in many types of organizations since predictions of future events must be incorporated into the decision-making process. In the case of tourism demand, better forecast would help directors and investors make operational, tactical and strategic decisions. Besides that, government bodies need accurate tourism demand forecasts to plan required tourism infrastructures, such as accommodation site … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 24 Nov 2011 · 8,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCommon Modeling Language for Model CheckersPathiah Abdul Samat, Abdullah Mohd ZinProblem statement: There are many different model checkers that have been developed. Each of the model checkers is based on different input languages and they are suitable for model checking different types of systems. Thus it is important for us to choose the right model checker or modeling and verifying a given system. However, moving from one model checker to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 1 Nov 2011 · 8,350 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Implementation of Weighted Fuzzy Fisherface Algorithm for Face Recognition Using Wavelet TransformEsther Annlin Kala James, S. AnnaduraiProblem statement: The paper addresses the face recognition problem by proposing Weighted Fuzzy Fisherface (WFF) technique using biorthogonal transformation. The weighted fuzzy fisherface technique was an extension of Fisher Face technique by introducing fuzzy class membership to each training sample in calculating the scatter matrices. Approach: In weighted fuzzy fisherface method, weight emphasizes classes that were close together and deemphasizes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 26 Oct 2011 · 7,351 accessesView PDFCite
