Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Conceptual Model for Risk Allocation in the Construction IndustryChipozya Kosta Tembo-Silungwe, Nthatisi KhatleliAppropriate risk allocation influences positive project delivery on construction projects while inappropriate allocation results in disputes, quality shortfalls, time and cost overruns. The existing body of knowledge provides guides on how risks should be allocated between the contracting parties. Nevertheless, the full appreciation of risks allocation is rarely given as risk allocation is more than just which party should bear … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 7 · 26 Jun 2017 · 8,945 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractWhere the Future is Being Made TodayMark A. Brown, Joachim Storsberg, Christian SchmidtGrowing up, I was fascinated by The Muppet Show and the adventures of Dr. Bunsen Honeydew and his assistant Beaker. Apparently, my feelings were not unique because Muppet characters are used to ease tensions associated with education about clinical interventions (Ramsay, 2014; Rohn, 2007). Yet the opening phrase 'Where the future is being made today' has, in my opinion, summed … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 28 Jun 2016 · 7,425 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClosing the Gaps in Rat Cytomegalovirus ALL-03 (Malaysian Strain) Genomic ScaffoldKrishnan Nair Balakrishnan, Ashwaq Ahmed Abdullah, Yusuf Abba et al.Next generation sequencing technologies has revolutionized genomic research by producing a large volume of sequence data and lowest per base cost compared to the traditional sanger method. Although this technology offers many advantages, gap occurrences are commonly found in draft assemblies. The same problem was observed with Rat Cytomegalovirus (RCMV) ALL-03 (Malaysia strain), where a complete genome sequence could not … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 8 Jun 2015 · 7,578 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSING SOIL RESPIRATION AS AN INDICATOR OF SOIL MICROBIAL ACTIVITY IN RECLAIMED METAL CONTAMINATED LANDSKassandre Goupil, Kabwe NkongoloMining, roasting as well as smelting of these elements have caused sulphur dioxide fumigations and metal particulate depositions which have led to various detrimental effects on the overall environmental quality of the Greater Sudbury region. Soil amendment and revegetation within the Greater Sudbury Region were initiated to restore the damage land. Several methods have been used to assess the progress … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 11 Jul 2014 · 8,099 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClamshell vs. Backhoe Excavation of Permeable Reactive BarriersRajandrea Sethi, Steve Day, Antonio Di MolfettaProblem statement: Permeable Reactive Barriers (PRBs) were one of the most widespread solutions for the remediation of contaminated aquifers. Although, a variety of excavation methods had been developed, backhoe (hydraulic excavators) were commonly used for the construction of PRBs in North America. Approach: In Europe, the most common method of slurry excavation was with a hydraulic grab and crane. The … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 4 Nov 2011 · 7,238 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObservations on the Relationship between Opioid Medications, Illicit Drugs and Heroin Use in Pain PatientsDavid AlanYee, Michelle Marie Hughes, Rabia Samady Atayee et al.Problem statement: Patients on chronic opioid therapy are monitored to detect illicit drug use in order to deter diversion of their prescription opioids and to ensure medication adherence. The addictive potential of opioid drugs and their similar binding sites in the brain may make them potential gateway drugs for each other. Recent reports indicate that oxycodone has a high probability … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 7 Jun 2011 · 7,957 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReliable and Efficient Broadcasting in Asymmetric Mobile Ad Hoc Networks Using Minimized Forward Node List AlgorithmMarimuthu Murugesan, Ammasai KrishnanProblem statement: Network wide broadcasting is a fundamental operation in ad hoc networks. In broadcasting, a source node sends a message to all the other nodes in the network. Unlike in a wired network, a packet transmitted by a node in ad hoc wireless network can reach all neighbors. Therefore, the total number of transmissions (Forwarding nodes) used as the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 27 Dec 2010 · 7,577 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHardware Implementation of Truncated Multipliers Using Spartan-3AN, Virtex-4 and Virtex-5 FPGA DevicesMuhammad H. RaisProblem statement: The development cost for Application Specific Integrated Circuits (ASICs) are high, algorithms should be verified and optimized before implementation. The Digital Signal Processing (DSP), image processing and multimedia requires extensive use of multiplication. The truncated multipliers can easily be implemented using Field Programmable Gate Array (FPGA) devices. Approach: This research presented the comparative study of Spartan-3AN, Virtex-4 and … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 8,334 accessesView PDFCite
