Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Analysis of Resource Selection Algorithms in Grid Computing EnvironmentMalarvizhi Nandagopal, Rhymend UthariarajProblem statement: Meta- scheduling has become important due to increased number of jobs and resources in the area of grid computing to achieve the objectives of grid users and grid resources. Approach: A variety of factors need to be considered for effective scheduling of resources in such environments such as total time job spend in the grid system, global and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 6,902 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Capacitated Vehicle Routing Problem by Nested Particle Swarm OptimizationKaruppusamy Kanthavel, Paruchuri PrasadProblem statement: Vehicle routing problem determines the optimum route for each vehicle as a sequence of visiting cities. The problem has been defined as NP-hard and exact solution is relatively difficult to achieve for real time large scale models. Though several attempts to solve the problem were made in the literature, new approaches may be tried to solve the problem … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2011 · 7,987 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation of Computer Aided Diagnosis System Based on Parallel Approach of Ant Based Medical Image SegmentationJayabalan Jaya, Keppanagowder ThanushkodiProblem statement: The aim of this study is to develop Computer Aided Diagnosis (CAD) system for the detection of brain tumor by using parallel implementation of ACO system for medical image segmentation applications due to the rapid execution for obtaining and extracting the Region of Interest (ROI) from the images for diagnostic purposes in medical field. Approach: For ROI segmentation, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 8,134 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Robust Byzantine Fault-Tolerant Replication Technique for Peer-to-Peer Content DistributionAyyasamy Sellappan, Sivanandam NatarajanProblem statement: In peer-to-peer networks, Byzantine fault tolerance refers to the capability of a system to tolerate Byzantine faults. It can be achieved by replicating the server and by ensuring all server replicas reach an agreement on the input despite Byzantine faulty replicas and clients. Since malicious attacks and software errors can cause faulty nodes to exhibit Byzantine behavior, Byzantine-fault-tolerant … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2011 · 7,059 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComposition-Explicit Distillation Curves of Waste Lubricant Oils and Resourced Crude Oil: A Diagnostic for Re-Refining and EvaluationLisa Starkey Ott, Beverly L. Smith, Thomas J. BrunoProblem statement: We have recently introduced several important improvements in the measurement of distillation curves for complex fluids. The modifications include a composition-explicit data channel for each distillate fraction and temperature measurements that are true thermodynamic state points that can be modeled with an equation of state. The composition-explicit information is achieved with a sampling approach that allows precise qualitative … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 31 Dec 2010 · 8,106 accessesView PDFCite

The aim of this research note is to evaluate the nascent development of ecotourism in Lagong Hill, Malaysia based on the common core precepts of ecotourism. Approach: The research methods comprise of secondary data collection and field survey via an in-depth interview with selected key informants. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2010 · 7,647 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Race Distance on Physical, Hematological and Biochemical Parameters of Endurance HorsesLawan Adamu, Noraniza Mohd Adzahan, Rasedee Abdullah, Bashir AhmadProblem statement: Endurance horses are generally exposed to severe stress during endurance competitions. These horses are however conditioned to cover the long distances of the competitions at moderate speeds. Approach: This study was conducted in Malaysia to determine the post-race hematological, blood electrolyte and biochemical and physical parameters of horses of 40, 80 and 120 km endurance race categories and … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 27 Dec 2010 · 9,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPattern Based Communication System and Its Performance Characteristics Compared to the Matched FilteringOzgur Orcay, Berk UstundagProblem Statement: Pattern Based Communication System (PBCS) aims to handle two prominent restrictions in communication lines. These are the inefficient utilization of the bandwidth under the spectrum limitations and sensitivity of the data transmission rate to the variation of Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR). Approach: The key point of PBCS is to construct the optimal communication signals, which consist of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 16 Dec 2010 · 7,290 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPesticide-Tolerant Bacteria Isolated from Agricultural Canals in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of South TexasSandra Puente Aguirre, Kristine L. LoweAtrazine and oxamyl are commonly-used pesticides in the Lower Rio Grande Valley of South Texas. Problem statement: Pesticides may become environmental contaminants due to overuse, runoff and other mechanisms and may impact non-target organisms and ecosystems. Pesticides may be degraded by indigenous microorganisms or by abiotic means. In this study, waterborne bacteria from agricultural canals were examined to assess potential … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 7,611 accessesView PDFCite
