Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPREDICTING GROUNDWATER LEVEL USING FOURIER SERIES INTEGRATED WITH LEAST SQUARE ESTIMATION METHODManoj K. JhaGroundwater level data is an important indicator of the availability and distribution of groundwater resources of the region. However, it is difficult to understand the continuous and discrete fluctuations of the groundwater level which is controlled by various factors. This study demonstrated the use of Fourier series integrated with the least square estimation method to predict the groundwater level especially … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 26 Mar 2014 · 7,782 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDEVELOPMENT OF A PROXIMAL MACHINE VISION SYSTEM FOR OFF-SEASON WEED MAPPING IN BROADACRE NO-TILLAGE FALLOWSH. Liu, C. Saunders, S. H. LeeWeeds are among the most significant and costly environmental threats in Australian agriculture. Weeds compete with crop plants for moisture, nutrients and sunlight and can have a detrimental impact on crop yields and quality if uncontrolled. The distribution, size, density and species of the weeds are often heterogeneous in the cropping land. Instead of uniformly spray the same type of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 26 Nov 2013 · 7,233 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetention Pond Sediment Accumulation Prediction using Monte Carlo SimulationSupiah Shamsudin, Abd Rashid Mohd Darom, Irma Norazurah Mohamad, Azmi Ab RahmanProblem statement: A study in Malaysia had been carried out to predict the sediment accumulation in urban detention ponds. Suspended sediment is pollutant of primary concern to the river that results in adverse environmental effect. Detention pond becomes a practical approach to this problem. Suspended sediment that settled in stormwater detention pond, can bring effect to the detention pond functions. … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2012 · 7,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNitrogen Fixing Legumes in the Plant CommunitiesMohammed A.A. Al-FredanProblems statement: Numerous authors have used energetic to explain the ecological success of N-fixing plants. Legume biodiversity assessment, species dynamics, nitrogen fixation monitoring and environment impact assessment of these ecological events in Al-Hassa Oasis, Saudi Arabia are rare and need to be continuous and more frequent. Approach: Thus the objectives of this study were to analyze legume abundance within and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 7,400 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTopological Decoupled Group Key Management for Cellular NetworksJorge Estudillo Ramirez, Saul Eduardo Pomares Hernandez, Gustavo Rodriguez Gomez, Jose Roberto Perez CruzProblem statement: The continuous increasing capacity of the cellular networks motivates the development of multiparty applications, such as interactive mobile TV and mobile social networks. For these environments, security group services are required. A practical way to provide security services is by using cryptographic methods. However, the key management needed for these methods, which considers a dynamic group membership, introduces … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 9 Mar 2011 · 6,866 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Importance of Maintaining a Proper Database on Forest Restoration Program for Orangutans in BorneoRaymond Alfred, Koh Pei Hue, Lee Shan Khee, Rayner AlfredProblem statement: The lowland forest of Sabah is the most important habitat for orangutans and pygmy elephants. This is shown in the WWF-Malaysia’s elephant tracking programme in which satellite-based Global Position System (GPS) collar devices are used to monitor their movement and the range of their habitats, as well as an aerial survey on orangutan’s nest is performed to determine … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 30 Apr 2010 · 7,910 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Bidding Strategies for a Small Generation Company in a Day-Ahead Electricity Market with Bilateral Contracts Taken into AccountAzmi Saleh, Takao Tsuji, Tsutomu OyamaProblem Statement: Deregulation power systems have been force to change their structures, from vertically integrated to open market systems. Each generation company (Genco) is required to compete with rivals through bidding in a pool market and making a bilateral contract with a distribution company (Disco) or consumers to maximize its own profits. A unit commitment becomes responsible for each Genco … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,708 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCorrelation Between Dispersion and Mean Toassess Healthcare Servicee FficiencyRamalingam ShanmugamMotivation for this research work started while helping a hospital administrator to assess whether patient oriented activity duration, X≥0 is reflecting the service’s efficiency? Higher value of the sample mean duration, X implies lesser productivity in the hospital and more healthcare cost. Likewise, larger value of sample dispersion, sx2 in the service durations is an indicator of lesser reliability and … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Aug 2012 · 6,873 accessesView PDFCite
