Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Main Object-oriented Projective Invariant Image Watermarking ApproachMalik F. AlamairehDigital Watermarking is a technology that enables to protect distributed digital content from unauthorized reuse. Robust watermarks must be able to survive a range of geometrical "attacks," such as image resizing, cropping, translation, rotation, scaling, smoothing, filtering, and simplification. In the current paper we extend existing approaches that are based partially on image invariant features; by introducing new image invariant … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,741 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study of Clinker's Transformation at Different Temperature Zone During Cement ProductionMohd Sobri Idris, Khairul Nizar Ismail, Shamsul Baharin Jamaludin et al.Chemical composition analysis using x-ray fluorescence is one of the important quality analysis for examining of cement and widely used in cement industries for a long time as a tool to estimate phase composition. X-ray diffraction is one of the established techniques as a qualitative tool to identify phase existing in the sample. This study will discuss about the correlation … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,176 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResource Leveling Using Petrinet and Memetic ApproachK. Raja, S. KumananThe problem of scheduling activities dynamic for a project, within the available resources and adhering to precedence relationships is NP hard combinatorial. Traditional approaches and their extensions are limited in application for simultaneous scheduling of resources with leveling. Considering the need for improved modeling and scheduling techniques, this paper proposes the use of Petrinet based approach aided by memetic algorithm. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Thermal Explosion of Sensitized Reaction with Variable Heat LossK.S. Adegbie, F.I. AlaoThis study discusses the influence of heat loss on the critical ignition temperature and Frank-Kamenetskii parameter of a non-linear ordinary differential equation arising in thermal sensitized reaction. The reaction obeys the Arrhenius expression with temperature dependent pre-exponential factor, taking heat exchange between the reacting material and its surrounding into account. The consequences of heat loss are explored within the framework … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 6,929 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRoundup of Graphical Navigation Helpers on the WebChabane Khentout, Mahieddine Djoudi, Lamri DouidiDespite the recent research, the Web remains mainly constituted of an ever-growing network of documents. As it becomes easier to publish documents, as the number of users and thus publishers, increases and as the number of documents grows, searching for information is turning into a cumbersome and time-consuming operation. Because of the loose interconnection between documents, people have difficulty remembering … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 6,843 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Temperature and pH on the Stability and Colorimetric Measurement of Textile DyesA.S. Mahmoud, A.E. Ghaly, S.L. BrooksMost of the textile dye removal techniques operate within temperature and pH ranges of 20-60°C and 2-12, respectively. Both the pH and temperature have been reported to have significant effects on the efficiencies of the dye removal techniques. In this study, the effects of pH and temperature on the stability and color measurement (absorbance) of the textile dye remazol brilliant … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 10,751 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractData Quality and IndicatorsJorge Matute, A.P. GuptaThis study highlights the importance of collecting good quality data from multidisciplinary studies. Bias in data may be the result of instrument inaccuracies, imprecise data recording techniques, inaccurate data entry to computers or inappropriate statistical analysis and presentation. Recommendations for good data quality control are given. Different types of data are discussed: raw data, simple indicators and complex indicators. It … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,861 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorpho-physiological Differences of the Spermatheca of Attini Ants (Hymenoptera: Myrmicinae)Gabriela Ortiz, Maria Izabel Camargo-MathiasThe insect's spermatheca store the spermatozoa from the time of copulation until the fertilization of the eggs and consists of a sac, usually associated to glands. The ant species Atta laevigata, Atta sexdens sexdens, Atta sexdens piriventris, Acromyrmex coronatus and Cyphomyrmex muelleri are considered pests, as they cause economics losses to several crops. The spermatheca of these species were examined … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Enhancement on Voice using VAD Algorithm and Cepstral AnalysisT. Ravichandran, K. D. SamyThe Transport of Voice Over Network has been existing for a long time. Due to the bad quality of speech and absence of useful service, it has not yet been widely spread. The benefits of reduced cost and bandwidth savings of carrying voice over data network is associated with Quality of Service (QoS). Many different techniques and protocols are used … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 6,587 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractContributions To The Study Of Heavy Metals Concentration Variation In Sedimentable Dusts According To The Distance From The Pollution SourceMariana DOBRA, Vasile VIMAN, Gheorghe VÂTCĂThe environment in areas where geological and mining activities, such as the extraction of ores containing heavy metals, take place, is heavily polluted with dusts resulting from these activities, as well as with residual waters from the mines. Depending on the meteorological conditions, as well as on the conditions under which sedimentable dusts or dusts in suspension are emitted into … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,970 accessesView PDFCite
