Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE IMPACT OF THE POLYMER COATING NUTRISPHERE™ IN INCREASING NITROGEN USE EFFICIENCY AND CORN YIELDTimothy A. Smith, Ronnie W. Heiniger, Pawel WiatrakCurrently, it is estimated that 50 to 60% of the N applied fertilizer is actually utilized by the crop with the remaining N lost through leaching or denitrification. A three year study was conducted at eight locations in North Carolina to examine the impact of Nutrisphere™ on corn yield, optimum N rate, maximum yield, tissue N concentration, plant biomass and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2013 · 8,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUsing Worldview-2 Satellite Imagery to Support Geoscience Studies on Phlegraean AreaPasquale Maglione, Claudio Parente, Andrea VallarioWorldView-2 satellite imagery includes half-meter panchromatic resolution and 2 m multispectral resolution. Because of the reduced dimensions of pixels and articulated spectral acquisition these images supply detailed information that can be used for geoscience applications, above all to investigate areas, identify land cover, bound vegetated zones, outline transformations (change detection). The aim of this study is to remark possibilities to … …Current Research in Geoscience, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2013 · 7,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Chaotic Block Cipher for Real-Time MultimediaN. Radha, M. VenkatesuluProblem statement: The widespread use of image, audio and video data makes media content protection increasingly necessary and important. We propose a naive approach which treats the multimedia signal to be protected as a text and use proposed encryption design to encrypt the whole data stream. Upon reception, the entire cipher text data stream would be decrypted and playback can … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 27 Apr 2012 · 7,306 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Algorithm for Fractal Coding Using Self Organizing MapS. Bhavani, k. ThanushkodiProblem statement: In medical imaging, lossy compression schemes are generally not used due to possible loss of useful clinical information and also degradations may result in lossy compression owing to operations like enhancement. As the medical images are huge in size a good lossy compression technology is required to store them in medical archives in an economical manner. There is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 15 Mar 2012 · 7,583 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScientific Legitimation of the European Union’s Competence Development PolicyRosario Sergio ManiscalcoThis study provides an accessible account of the policy making process of the European Union in the arena of adult skills and competence development. In particular, the way skill standards for adult learners is designed in the EU official statements is investigated, analyzing the developments in the European Union’s adult education policies since the Lisbon process was launched in order … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 18 Feb 2012 · 8,425 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFramework for Managing the Very Large Scale Integration Design ProcessSabah Al-Fedaghi, Eman Al-DwaisanProblem statement: The VLSI design cycle was described in terms of successive states and substages; it starts with system specification and ends with packaging. At the next descriptive level, currently known methodologies (e.g., flowchart based, object-oriented based) lack a global conceptual representation suitable for managing the VLSI design process. Technical details were intermixed with tool-dependent and implementation issues such as … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 Dec 2011 · 7,491 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractViscous Dissipation Effect on Steady free Convection and Mass Transfer Flow past a Semi-Infinite Flat PlatePalanisamy Geetha, Muthamperumal Bhavathikannu Krishna MoorthyProblem statement: A steady two-dimensional free convection and mass transfer flow past a continuously moving semi-infinite flat plate is studied theoretically, by taking into account the viscous dissipation effect. Approach: The governing equations are transformed into a set of simultaneous ordinary differential equation by using suitable similarity transformations. The coupled differential equations are integrated using the Runge-Kutta Gill method together … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 30 Jun 2011 · 6,503 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonitoring Educational Organizations' Culture of Sustainable Consumption: Initiating and Evaluating Cultural Change in Schools and UniversitiesDaniel FischerProblem Statement: Patterns of consumption are considered as a main driver of unsustainable development. In the debate, education and educational organizations are unisonous considered as a key player to contribute to a more sustainable socialization of young consumers. Both schools and universities are challenged to become places and life-worlds in which sustainable consumption can be learned and experienced. The objective … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 18 Dec 2010 · 8,853 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Novel Fidelity Digital Watermarking Based on Adaptively Pixel-Most-Significant-Bit-6 in Spatial Domain Gray Scale Images and RobustMehemed Bashir Aliwa, Tarek El-Ahmady El-Tobely, Mahmood M. Fahmy et al.The digital watermarking technology is a way to apply digital information hiding techniques and prevent malicious and non-malicious attacks to detect hidden information. Problem statement: The problems in digital watermarking is that the three requirements of imperceptibility, capacity and robustness that are must be satisfied but they almost conflict with each other, accordingly there are tradeoff between fidelity and robustness. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2010 · 7,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBlock Cipher Involving Key Based Random Interlacing and Key Based Random DecompositionK. Anup Kumar, V. U.K. SastryProblem statement: The strength of the block ciphers depend on the degree of confusion and diffusion induced in the cipher. Most of the transformations used for this purpose are well known to every one and can be broken by a crypt analyzer. Therefore, in order to counter attack the crypt analyzer, there is a need for better transformations in addition … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,004 accessesView PDFCite
