Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotted Plants on Flat Roof as a Strategy to Reduce Indoor Temperature in Malaysian ClimateAsmat Ismail, Muna Hanim Abdul Samad, Abdul Malek Abdul RahmanProblem statement: The phenomenon of global warming or climate change has led to many environmental issues including higher atmospheric temperatures, intensive precipitation, increase greenhouse gaseous emission and of course increase indoor discomfort condition. Researchers worldwide collectively agreed that one way of reducing the impact of global warming is by implementing green roof technology which integrates vegetation, growing medium and water … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractControl of a Step Walking Combined to Arms Swinging for a Three Dimensional Humanoid PrototypeAmira Aloulou, Olfa BoubakerProblem statement: Present researches focus to make humanoid robots more and more autonomous so they can assist human in daily works like taking care of children, aged or disabled persons. In such social activities, the contemporary humanoid robots are expected to have human like morphology and gait. Studies on bipedal locomotion for humanoid robots are then part of the hottest … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 7,423 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUML Diagrams Generator: A New CASE Tool to Construct the Use-Case and Class Diagrams from an Event TableMohammad I. Muhairat, Rafa E. Al-Qutaish, Akram A. AbdelqaderProblem statement: Building UML diagrams is a very important and time consuming task for both requirements and design phases. However, some of these diagrams, such as use-case and class diagrams can be considered as a transition between the two phases. Approach: Through this study, the event table will be used to derive the use-case and class diagrams. Results: A new … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,045 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBluetooth Wireless Monitoring, Managing and Control for Inter Vehicle in Vehicular Ad-Hoc NetworksHelia Mamdouhi, Sabira Khatun, Javad ZarrinProblem statement: The car users expect more and more accessories available in their cars, but the accessories available needed manage by driver manually and not properly manage by smart system. All these accessories are able to control by user manually using different and standalone controllers. Besides, the controller itself uses RF technology which is not existed in mobile devices. So … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,982 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeneralization Aspect of Neural Networks on Upgrading Assimilation Structure into Accommodating SchemeWaleed, A. J. Rasheed, Hamza A. AliProblem statement: Generalization feature enhancement of neural networks, especially feed forward structural model has limited progress. The major reason behind such limitation is attributed to the principal definition and the inability to interpret it into convenient structure. Traditional schemes, unfortunately have regarded generalization as an innate outcome of the simple association, referred to by Pavlov and had been modeled by … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,152 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment and Early Score Validation of the Malaysian Educator’s Information Technology Attitude Scale (MEITAS)Wong Su LuanThe purpose of this study was to develop and provide initial validation evidence for an instrument to measure educators’ attitudes toward IT. Data were collected from 817 participants comprising both pre and in-service teachers in four phases. Two separate factor analyses were conducted for the pre-service teacher data and in-service teacher data. Principle component analysis, with varimax rotation, suggested three … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 7,205 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Genotoxic Activity of Para-nitrophenol in Higher Plant Using Arbitrarily Primed- polymerase Chain Reaction (AP-PCR)Mohamed R. EnanParanitrophenol is a common toxic environmental pollutant; the aim of this study was to evaluate the potential of the DNA fingerprinting by AP-PCR assay to detect the DNA damage in the common bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) exposed to different concentrations of paranitrophenol (4.0-720 nM). The changes occurring in the fingerprint patterns were likely to be the result of paranitrophenol-induced DNA damage. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,069 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Development of A New, Rapid, Amperometric Immunosensor for the Detection of Low Concentrations of Bacteria Part I: Design of the Detection System and ApplicationsEric Carnes, Ebtisam WilkinsA portable, flow-through amperometric immunoassay system utilizing a newly designed immunosensor has been developed for the detection of bacteria. A sandwich scheme of immunoassay involving two stages of immunoreaction was employed using Escherichia coli as a model. E. coli antibodies were immobilized on Toray carbon paper to create a disposable immunofiltration membrane. Detection of the bacteria was achieved through the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,365 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Compressing Ultrasonic Data Algorithm Based on WaveletsMounir Hergli, Jamel Baili, Faouzi Bouslama, Kamel BesbesIn this paper, we propose a novel and effective algorithm for compressing large volumes of data recorded in underwater applications, using a laboratory designed experimental setup. This data represents samples of ultrasonic signals acquired at different geometric positions of a water tank. The proposed algorithm was based on Wavelets and consists of two processing phases including a prefiltering stage using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,002 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Model for Bioaccumulation of Metals in Crassostrea virginica from Apalachicola Bay, FloridaDennis A. Apeti, Elijah Johnson, Larry RobinsonKinetics of bioaccumulation of the trace metals (Cd and Zn) by C. virginica were investigated in this study. A computer program, Oyster Bioaccumulation Model (OBM), was developed to simulate the accumulation of the metals from both dissolved (water column) and particulate (food) phases by C. virginica. The model is based on two main attributes: (1) the oyster biological characteristics such … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,478 accessesView PDFCite
