Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Study of Iranian Consumers' Versus Extension Experts' Attitudes towards Agricultural Organic Products (AOP)Morteza Akbari, Ali AsadiThe main purpose of this study was to asses the attitudes of consumers and extension experts towards Agricultural Organic Products (AOP) in Iran. The statistical population included all of the consumers and extension experts (1000). A sample of 416 consumers and 289 extension experts were selected by the use of proportional random sampling methods. Questionnaires were used to collect data. … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2008 · 7,850 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetermination of Ibuprofen and Paracetamol in Binary Mixture Using Chemometric-Assisted Spectrophotometric MethodsWafaa S. HassanThree methods are presented for simultaneous determination of ibuprofen and paracetamol without previous separation. The first method depends on first derivative UV spectrophotometry, with zero-crossing measurement. The first derivative amplitudes at 230 and 290 nm were selected for the assay of ibuprofen and paracetamol, respectively. The second method depends on first derivative of the ratio-spectra by measurements of the amplitudes … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 8,199 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProposal for the Development of Adverse Drug Reaction Prediction ModelMuaed J. Alomar, Anas A. Hourani, Syed A. SulaimanInformation technology, which uses the computer for data processing and decision-making, has invaded all kinds of sciences. Health informatics is one of these important areas. The Objective of this study is to develop a mathematical model that calculates the percentage of ADR occurrence using the data available from primary literature for a specific medication. A mathematical model was developed to … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,394 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHardware Implementation of Higher Throughput Anti-Collision Algorithm for Radio Frequency Identification SystemJahariah Sampe, Masuri OthmanThis paper presents a proposed hardware implementation of Higher Throughput Anti-Collision Algorithm (HTACA) for Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) system. Our proposed HTACA combines a pipeline and a deterministic anti-collision technique in order to enhance its performances. These downlink and uplink operations are concurrently executed during the identification process. The downlink operation is purposely pre-selected a group of tags base on … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Microscopic Study of Language-Related Cortex in AutismEdith López-Hurtado, Jorge J. PrietoImpaired language function is a principle criterion for the diagnosis of autism. The present study of brain from age-matched autistic and control subjects compared brain regions associated with the production and processing of speech. Wernicke's area (Brodmann 22, speech recognition), Broca's area (Brodmann 44, speech production) andthe gyrus angularis (Brodmann 39, reading) from autistic subjects (7-44 years of age) and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 8,544 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Advantages of PID Fuzzy Controllers Over The Conventional TypesAbdullah I. Al-Odienat, Ayman A. Al-LawamaFuzzy logic controllers (FLC's) have the following advantages over the conventional controllers: they are cheaper to develop, they cover a wider range of operating conditions, and they are more readily customizable in natural language terms. A self-organizing fuzzy controller can automatically refine an initial approximate set of fuzzy rules. Application of PI-type fuzzy controller increases the quality factor. In this … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 18,036 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Fault Tolerant Reversible Gate For Nanotechnology Based SystemsMajid Haghparast, Keivan NaviThis paper proposes a novel reversible logic gate, NFT. It is a parity preserving reversible logic gate, that is, the parity of the outputs matches that of the inputs. We demonstrate that the NFT gate can implement all Boolean functions. It renders a wide class of circuit faults readily detectable at the circuit's outputs. The proposed parity preserving reversible gate, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 7,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) on Non-Industrial Countries-Digital Divide ModelMahmoud Z. IskandaraniThe influence of information and communication technology on the collective activities and interests of a broad range of people was discussed and analyzed. The important consequence of ICT called digital divide was mathematically modeled and the results analyzed. The closed loop feedback model proved the need for a society to be educationally, culturally, economically and politically ready to integrate and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2008 · 6,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHow Prepared are Trainee Teachers of University Putra Malaysia (UPM) to Integrate Computer Technology in Classroom Teaching?Shamsiah Mohamed, Ab. Rahim BakarThis research is a presentation of a study on trainee teachers' preparedness to integrate computer technology in teaching. One-hundred and thirty-nine trainee teachers participated in the study. They comprised 12.2% male students and 87.8% female.

Their academic achievements were between 2.00 and 3.74 (Mean = 2.91, … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,799 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStrength and Ductility of Randomly Distributed Palm Fibers Reinforced Silty-Sand SoilsS.M. Marandi, M.H. Bagheripour, R. Rahgozar, H. ZareThis paper investigates the resultant strength and ductility behavior when randomly distributed palm fibers are used to reinforce silty-sand soils. The composite soils were tested under laboratory conditions and examined for unconfined compression strength (UCS), California Bearing Ratio (CBR) and compaction test. The results indicated that; the maximum and residual strengths, orientation of surface failures, ductility and the stress-strain relationship … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2008 · 8,857 accessesView PDFCite
