Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Comparison of Two On-demand Routing Protocols for Ad-hoc Networks based on Random Way Point Mobility ModelGeetha Jayakumar, G. GopinathAd hoc networks are characterized by multihop wireless connectivity, frequently changing network topology and the need for efficient dynamic routing protocols plays an important role. We compare the performance of two prominent on-demand routing protocols for mobile ad hoc networks: Dynamic Source Routing (DSR), Ad Hoc On-demand distance Vector Routing (AODV). A detailed simulation model with MAC and physical layer … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,692 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolymer in Agriculture: a ReviewFrancesco Puoci, Francesca Iemma, Umile Gianfranco Spizzirri et al.In agricultural field, polymers are widely used for many applications. Although they were used, in the first time, just as structural materials (inhert polymers), in the last decades functionalized polymers revolutionized the agricultural and food industry with new tools for several applications. Smart polymeric materials and smart delivery systems helped the agricultural industry to combat viruses and other crop pathogens, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 21,407 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnomalies in a Fetus Exposed to Methotrexate in the First TrimesterLandon B. Lorenz, Eric J. KnudtsonThe increasing use of methotrexate for multiple indications in reproductive age women will likely lead to more frequent incidence of fetal exposure. Methotrexate is sometimes used for medical termination of first trimester pregnancy in combination with misoprostol. Teratogenesis in women exposed to low-dose methotrexate used for treatment of rheumatic conditions has been reported, but it has also been suggested that … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 7,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Swarm-based Distance Vector Routing to Support Multiple Quality of Service (QoS) Metrics in Mobile Adhoc NetworksR. Asokan, A. M. Natarajan, A. NivethaQuality of Service support for Mobile Ad-hoc Networks is a challenging task due to dynamic topology and limited resource. The main purpose of QoS routing is to find a feasible path that has sufficient resources to satisfy the constraints. A fundamental problem in QoS routing is to find a path between a source and destination that satisfies two or more … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 6,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProximity Aware Routing in Ad Hoc NetworksValerie Alandzi, Alejandro QuinteroMost of the existing routing protocols for ad hoc networks are designed to scale in networks of a few hundred nodes. They rely on state concerning all links of the network or links on the route between a source and a destination. This may result in poor scaling properties in larger mobile networks or when node mobility is high. Using … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,733 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessment of Canadian Regulations and Remediation Methods for Diesel Oil Contaminated SoilsD. G. Rushton, A E. Ghaly, K. MartinellDiesel fuel released into the environment can contaminate ground water, degrade potable water supplies and cause the collapse of fisheries. They are toxic to both animals and humans and can affect the liver, lungs, kidneys, and nervous system leading to cancer as well as immunological and reproductive effects. The objectives of this study were to review current Canadian regulations pertaining … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 8,758 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeamless Handoff Using Mailbox ApproachManpreet Singh, Rajneesh GujralMobile IP is used to keep track of location information and make the data available to the mobile devices anytime, anywhere. Mobile IP has been widely accepted but lacks in providing seamless handoff. We have proposed a framework for wireless network that uses a flexible and adaptive mailbox-based scheme. In this scheme a mailbox associated with each mobile node while … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,008 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUtilization of AODV in Wireless Ad Hoc NetworksZeyad M. Alfawaer, GuiWei Hua, Nidal A. HamdehAODV is a mature and widely accepted routing protocol for Mobile Ad hoc Networks (MANET), it has low processing and memory overhead and low network utilization, and works well even in high mobility situation. We modified AODV to use these dominating sets, resulting in the AODV-DS protocol. Our contribution in addressing the fragility of a minimum connected dominating set in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,160 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPreparation and Properties of Copolyanhydrides Based on 2-Hexadecylsuccinic Acid and Sebacic AcidYousef Hamdan, Xiangmei Jiang, Kaixun Huang, Kaichao YuPoly(2-hexadecylsuccinic acid-sebacic acid) (P(HSA-SA)) copolymers have been prepared by melt polycondensation. The copolymers were characterized by FT-IR, 1HNMR, gel permeation chromatography (GPC), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal gravimetric analysis (TGA). In vitro studies showed that all our prepared copolymers are degradable in phosphate buffer at 37°C. The release profiles of hydrophilic model drug, ciprofloxcin hydrochloride, from the copolymers, follow … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,427 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Network on Chip resources allocation for QoS ManagementAbdelhamid HELALI, Adel SOUDANI, Jamila BHAR, Salem NASRIThe increasing complexity of integrated circuits and application requirements drive the research of new on-chip interconnection architectures. A network on chip draws on concepts inherited from distributed systems and computer networks subject areas to interconnect IP cores in a structured and scalable way. The main goal pursued is to achieve superior bandwidth when compared to conventional on-chip bus architectures.
