Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultivariable Proportional Integral Controllers for Multi-Inputs-Multi-Outputs Desalination System Fed by a Photovoltaic GeneratorAbderrahmen Ben Chaabene, Anis SellamiProcess control is an essential part of the desalination industry that requires for driving at the optimum operating conditions an increase in the life time of the plant and reduction of the unit product cost. The desalination is a highly complex process, so that the majority of dynamic models are of the form of Multi-Inputs-Multi-Outputs (MIMO) systems. Problem statement: Driving … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExterior Differential Systems for Higher Order Partial Differential EquationsPaul BrackenThe theory of exterior differential systems is applied to study integrability of a set of related partial differential equations expressed in the terms of differential forms using Cartan's method. The Camassa-Holm equation and the Degasperis-Procesi equations are special cases that are described by these exterior differential systems. Some conservation laws are obtained in the cases of the more relevant equations. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 6,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLand Cover Change Detection Using Texture AnalysisXiaofeng Wu, Fen Yang, Roly LishmanProblem statement: It is an important task to detect land cover changes from remotely sensed data for environmental monitoring. Although there are some applications of visual textures to the land use, they are limited to a few land cover categories with the application of one texture measure. Since land cover types are complex and often the integration of various objects, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,203 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAre There Smaller Leverage Effects in Less-Developed Markets? Evidence from an Oil Exporting CountryMosayeb Phalavani, Parinaz EzzatiProblem statement: This study uses daily data from the Tehran Stock Market (TSM) to illustrate the nature of stock market volatility in an undeveloped and young stock market. Although most studies suggest that a negative shock to stock prices will generate more volatility than a positive shock of equal magnitude but there is no evidence of asymmetric effect in TSM. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 7,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTowards the Decline and fall of Radical and Educational Constructivism (Mark I)James Carifio, Rocco J. PerlaProblem statement: In 1974, McKeachie published a brief article in The Educational Researcher called, &#34The Decline and Fall of the Laws of Learning&#34. Approach: This article was primarily about the decline and fall of the behaviorist laws of learning and radical behaviorism, both of which were never quite the same in psychology or education after this article as before it … …Current Research in Psychology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 1 Jan 2010 · 8,074 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEcological Capability Assessment for Multiple-Use in Forest Areas Using GIS- Based Multiple Criteria Decision Making ApproachSasan Babaie-Kafaky, Asadollah Mataji, Naser Ahmadi SaniProblem statement: A valuable Source of plant and animal various species in the west of Iran is Zagros forests that, misuses by foresters and local societies has caused severe degradation. In this study, forest areas ecological assessment was carried out with a (GIS)-based MCDM approach for multiple-use planning in order to reduce degradation and improving sustainability. Approach: All of possible … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,892 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQuantum Key Distribution Using Decoy State ProtocolSellami Ali, Shuhairi Saharudin, M. R.B. WahiddinProblem statement: Quantum key distribution provides unconditional security guaranteed by the fundamental laws of quantum physics. Unfortunately, for real-life experimental set-ups, which mainly based on faint laser pulses, the occasional production of multi-photons and channel loss make it possible for sophisticated eavesdroppers to launch various subtle eavesdropping attacks including the Photon Number Splitting (PNS) attack. The decoy state protocols recently … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,441 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractChemical Composition of Propolis from Different Regions in Java and their Cytotoxic ActivitySyamsudin, Sudjaswadi Wiryowidagdo, Partomuan Simanjuntak, Wan Lelly HeffenProblem statement: Propolis samples from tropical zones, such as Java (Indonesia) with its vast biodiversity, have become a subject of increasing scientific and economic attention. The association of the chemical composition of propolis from different geographic regions with cytotoxic activities lead to the identification of active principles, a fundamental tool to achieve standardization of this bee product. Approach: The purpose … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,273 accessesView PDFCite
