Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Perturbative Approach in Nonlinear Singularity AnalysisTat-Leung YeeProblem statement: The study is devoted to the “mirror” method which enables one to study the integrability of nonlinear differential equations. Approach: A perturbative extension of the mirror method is introduced. Results: The mirror system and its first perturbation are then utilized to gain insights into certain nonlinear equations possessing negative Fuchs indices, which were poorly understood in the literatures. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 3 · 29 Jul 2011 · 7,331 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Public User's Role in Breast Self-Examination Teleconsultation System Development: Modified User-Created Content ApproachNorayu A. Talib, Nasriah Zakaria, Sureswaran Ramadass, Faten DamanhooriProblem statement: Teleconsultation services had been introduced in Malaysia for almost 10 years yet it has not been optimally adopted even though it was found that teleconsultation in Malaysia is cost saving, efficient in allocating resources, enhances diagnostic options and better health outcomes. At present, the underutilized service is due to its failure to satisfy the user’s demands on various … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 16 Jul 2011 · 6,384 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Unified K-Means Clustering Technique for Microarray Gene Expression DataP. Valarmathie, K. Dinakaran, T. RavichandranProblem statement: Using microarray techniques one could monitor the expressions levels of thousands of genes simultaneously. One challenge was how to derive meaningful insights into expressed data. This might be carried out by clustering techniques such as hierarchical and k-means, but most of the clustering techniques were largely heuristic in nature and are associated with some unresolved issues like how … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 6,912 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConservatism and Value Relevance: Evidence from the European Financial SectorPanayotis Manganaris, Jordan Floropoulos, Irini SmaragdiProblem statement: We examine the levels of conservatism and value relevance existent in the financial sectors of three code-law European countries (Germany, France and Greece) and one common-law European country (UK). We investigate (a) whether conservatism exists during the last decade (1999-2008), (b) whether its level has changed over this period and (c) the impact of conservatism on the value … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 7 Apr 2011 · 6,604 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeat-Modeling of Microwave Assisted Epoxidation of Palm Acid OilN. Saifuddin, L. Wei Zhan, K. Xin NingProblem statement: While microwave chemistry could well be the most convenient, rapid and energy-saving way to initiate a chemical reaction, the issues of thermal versus microwave specific effect remain unaddressed. Approach: A three-dimensional Finite Element Model (FEM) was developed to predict temperature profile during the enzymatic epoxidation of palm acid oil using microwave heating. Three-dimensional partial differential equations are formulated … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTime Series Forecasting by using Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average: Subset, Multiplicative or Additive ModelSuhartonoProblem statement: Most of Seasonal Autoregressive Integrated Moving Average (SARIMA) models that used for forecasting seasonal time series are multiplicative SARIMA models. These models assume that there is a significant parameter as a result of multiplication between nonseasonal and seasonal parameters without testing by certain statistical test. Moreover, most popular statistical software such as MINITAB and SPSS only has facility … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 29 Jan 2011 · 18,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBio-Technology International Strategic Alliances: The Managerial Perspectives of Malaysian FirmsAhmad Bashawir Abdul Ghani, Muhammad SubhanProblem statement: Biotechnology is becoming one of the major concerns among large emerging economies including Malaysia. International strategic alliances may be one way to integrate emerging economies in their development with developed economies. The use of various forms of cooperation between firms of emerging economies and firms of developed countries can accelerate the process of transfer and adaptation of advances … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 7 Jan 2011 · 7,597 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTime Series Analysis of Rainfall and Temperature Interactions in Coastal CatchmentsGurudeo Anand Tularam, Mahbub IlaheeProblem statement: As a result of climate change more work is now being done on climate indices such as SOI, rainfall, temperature and so on. The research concerning rainfall and temperature variations in coastal tropical and subtropical catchments as noted by the dated references in this study shows a lack of attention. The authors examined long term data from coastal … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 15,823 accessesView PDFCite
