Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Treatment Effects on the Thermoelectric Properties of Ni/Si/Si + Sb/Si/Si + Ge/Ni Multilayer Thin FilmsSatilmis Budak, Zhigang Xiao, Shujun YangThe multilayer thermoelectric devices including Ni/200 layers of Si/Si + Sb/200 layers of Si/Si + Ge/Ni thin films were fabricated using electron beam and DC/RF magnetron sputtering deposition systems. The thickness measurements have been performed using Filmetrics UV thickness measurement system. The Au contacts at the bottom and top of the fabricated thermoelectric devices were measured as 100 nm for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 4 · 14 Nov 2020 · 6,710 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCut-Set Based Method to Determine the Maximum Demand Accommodated by a Multi-State NetworkMoatamad Hassan, Hani AbdouThe reliability of a multi-state network is defined as the probability that the network can successfully send d (demand) units of data from the source to the sink. To predict the value of maximum demand (dmax) that could be accommodated by a network, a cut-set based approach is presented in this study. The presented approach is simple and easy to … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 28 Aug 2020 · 6,927 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMinimizing Transmission Time under Required System Capacity Constraint in Stochastic-Flow NetworksMoatamad Refaat HassanIn the case of an existing limited capacity of the system called required system capacity, in this study a new method is presented to determine the disjoint paths to send data from the source to the sink. System reliability is evaluated as the probability that a specified amount of data can be transmitted from a source to a sink through … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 5 · 5 May 2018 · 7,672 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSFAD2H: Selective Forwarding or Dropping Attack Detection with 2-Hop Acknowledgment Support in Wireless Sensor NetworksPrathap Uppara, Kiran Krishnappa, Deepa Shenoy Punjalkatte, Venugopal Kuppanna RajukSecurity in wireless sensor networks is critical due to its way of open communication. In this study we have proposed a technique based on a sensor node having alternate path knowledge and 2-hop acknowledgement mechanism to detect adversary nodes which perform selective forwarding and dropping attacks. In selective forwarding attack nodes on the forwarding path refuses to transfer packets selectively. … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2017 · 7,457 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Routing Optimization Based on Cross-Layer Design for Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs)Emansa Hasri Putra, Risanuri Hidayat, Widyawan, Wayan MustikaMultimedia applications are routed from source nodes via neighboring nodes to a sink in Wireless Multimedia Sensor Networks (WMSNs). However, the existing routing protocols in the WMSNs do not fulfill the quality of service (QoS) constraint yet for multimedia transmission. The WMSNs have specific characteristics such as multi-hop way, limited node capability and varying bandwidth, which can affect the quality … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 13, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2017 · 7,396 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis of Threshold Based Compressive Sensing Algorithm in Wireless Sensor NetworkParnasree Chakraborty, C. ThariniWireless Sensor Networks (WSN) are comprised of spatially distributed sensor nodes, where each node contains sensors, processors and transceivers for communicating data. Regardless of the application in which the sensor network is serving, the data generated in the network eventually must be delivered to the sink. However the limited network bandwidth, frequent node/link failure along with the unreliable communication medium … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 3 Feb 2017 · 7,507 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractProtecting crop species from biotic and abiotic constraints in the era of Global Change: are we ready for this challenge?Marco Landi, Giovanni BenelliReliable and affordable supply of food is of crucial importance to the progress and stability of human societies. During the last century, we have assisted to an extraordinary increase of crop yields, especially for the most widespread and consumed crop species, such as rice, wheat, corn and soybean. The Broadbalk experiment, one of the oldest continuous agronomic experiments in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 4 Jun 2016 · 8,399 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermodynamic Model of Calcium Carbonate System of Soil SolutionAbdulmalik A. Batukaev, Anatoliy P. Endovitsky, Andrey G. Andreev et al.Carbonate system determines the basic processes of soil formation and evolution. The aim of research was to show the importance of chemical Carbonate Calcium Equilibrium (CCE) in soil solutions. CCE causes a degree of soil solution’s saturation with CaCO3 as a factor of carbonate geochemical cycle. CCE depends on chemical composition, pH, Eh, buffering properties of liquid phase, dissolution, migration, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 18 May 2016 · 7,978 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA PARTICLE SWARM OPTIMIZATION APPROACH FOR LOW POWER VERY LARGE SCALE INTEGRATION ROUTINGG. Nallathambi, S. RajaramThis study deals with the particle swarm optimization approach for optimal power dissipation in VLSI interconnect driven routing technique.
