Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdhoc on Demand Multipath Reliable and Energy Aware Quality of Service Routing for Mobile Adhoc NetworksV. Thilagavathe, K. DuraiswamyProblem statement: In a mobile adhoc network, there are a number of challenges for providing quality of service routing for multimedia applications and real time applications like voice transmission. The QoS parameters considered in this study are link reliability and energy consumption. Existing studies estimate the link reliability constraint between two nodes using exponentially distributed epoch lengths. The major problem … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 7 Nov 2011 · 7,842 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractParticle Swarm Optimization Approach for Optimal Design of Switched Reluctance MachineMahadevan Balaji, Vijayarajan KamarajProblem statement: Switched Reluctance Motors (SRMs) are widely used in various applications due to their inherent simplicity and rugged construction In SRM, torque output and torque ripple are sensitive to stator and rotor pole arcs and their selection is a vital part of SRM design process. In this study Particle Swarm Optimization technique is proposed for determining optimum pole arc … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Apr 2011 · 7,328 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestment, Taxes and the Cost of Capital: An Euler Equation Specification TestHuntley SchallerProblem statement: Previous studies (primarily employing goodness-of-fit tests) have found it difficult to provide clear and direct evidence that taxes and the interest rate have a strong influence on investment. Approach: The objective of this study was to test whether the cost of capital, which includes taxes and the interest rate, affects investment. This study used the Euler equation for … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,616 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe So-Called Moderate Justices on the Rehnquist Court: The Role of Stare Decisis in Salient and Closely-Divided CasesPaul Douglas FooteProblem statement: A major question that has puzzled political scientists is what factors influence the decisions of US Supreme Court justices. Despite 20th Century statutory reforms that have led to a fundamental weakening of institutional cohesion on the Supreme Court, the norm of stare decisis continues to serve as a constraint to moderate decision-makers under certain external conditions. Evaluate voting … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,147 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConvergence Ratio Profile for Optimal Control Problems Governed by Ordinary Differential Equations with Matrix CoefficientsO. Olotu, S.A. OlorunsolaThe geometric convergence ratio, the main focus of a discretized scheme for constrained quadratic control problem was examined. In order to allow for the numerical applications of the developed scheme, discretizing the time interval and using Euler’s scheme for its differential constraint obtained a finite dimensional approximation. Applying the penalty function method, an unconstrained problem was obtained on function minimization … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2008 · 7,108 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring Strategies for Parallel Computing of RS Data Assimilation with SWAP-GAShamim Akhter, Kiyoshi Honda, Yann Chemin, Putchong UthayopasAn agro-hydrological simulation model is useful for agriculture monitoring. One issue in running such model is parameter identification, especially when the target area is large such as provincial or country level. Remote Sensing (RS) provides us with useful information over large area. RS cannot observe input parameters of agro-hydrological models directly. However, a method to estimate input parameters of such … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 7,209 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssessing the Environmental and Socio-Economic Risk Factors of Climate Vulnerability in Low-Income Settlements of Kitwe City in ZambiaGeorge Kasali, Julius Kanyembo, Mapenzi Phiri, Mainza SibajeneRecent findings of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change have clearly shown that climate change represents an urgent and irreversible threat to human societies and the planet and especially to the social and economic development of Africa.Therefore, the purpose of this study was to determine and identify the risk factors associated with climate vulnerability in selected slum settlements of Kitwe … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 25 Mar 2017 · 8,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMixed Species Grazing of Cattle and Goats on Gastrointestinal Infections of Haemonchus ContortusRenita Marshall, Sebhatu Gebrelul, Lisa Gray, Yemane GhebreiyessusAt the present time, the meat of goat is the fastest growing class of livestock in the U.S.A. Due to the sub-tropical climate in the South Eastern region of the US, internal parasites pose a major constraint to the industry. The blood-feeding nematode, Haemonchus contortus results in production losses and even death in untreated animals. The control of H. contortus … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 4 Jul 2012 · 8,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Hybrid Approach for Heterogeneous Radio Access Technology SelectionJ. Preethi, S. PalaniswamiProblem statement: The Next generation wireless networks are heterogeneous in nature where different Radio Access Technologies (RAT) coexists in the same coverage area. The user terminal should be able to pick the best access technology such as Wireless Local Area Network (WLAN), Wireless Wide Area Networks (WWAN), the Universal Mobile Telecommunication Systems (UMTS) and the Global System for Mobile Telecommunication … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 2 Mar 2012 · 7,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordCattle Raising Practices in North-West CambodiaSophany Morm, Koemseang Nhuong, Vibol Peuo et al.We aimed to assess current cattle farming practices in northwest Cambodia in terms of economy, practical management, productivity, and sustainability. The study sites were selected in four provinces (Pursat, Battambang, Pailin, and Banteay Meanchey) with 316 cattle livestock farmers interviewed as representative samples using systematic sampling. A stratified sampling method was utilized. Data were analyzed and descriptive statistics was used … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 19, Issue 4 · 7 Dec 2024 · 6,320 accessesView PDFCite
