Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRelationship Between Blood Fibrinogen Concentration and Pathological Features of Cancer Patients: A 139-case Clinical StudyDa-Yong Lu, Xue-Liang Chen, Min Huang et al.Angiogenesis and coagulation are among the most consistent host responses to the presence of a malignant tissue. Pathological angiogenesis and coagulation are often occurred in patients with solid tumors, especially in the occurrence of neoplasm metastasis and as targets for anti-metastatic drugs such as antiangiogenesis agents, coagulation-mediated agents and anticancer drugs. Since fibrinogen (Fib) is the most abundant and key … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 1 · 4 Sep 2010 · 7,859 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLeveraging Appreciative Intelligence for Positive Enactment in Times of Uncertainty: A Case Study of a Small Investment FirmSusan Schick Case, Tojo ThatchenkeryProblem statement: How do we develop a complex understanding of markets and environments? Are markets and environments concrete entities that exist “out there” or are they socially constructed by human imagination and intentional language use? Approach: Using a case study approach, the interactions in a small investment firm were analyzed to bring to surface the complex relationship among markets, enactment … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,555 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Schiff Bases with Pyridine Core: Spectral, Thermal and Optical CharacterizationsSie-Tiong Ha, Lay-Khoon Ong, Yip-Foo Win et al.Problem statement: Numerous studies have been conducted on the Schiff base's alkyl and alkyloxy possessing aromatic core. However, the thermo tropic properties of Schiff base's ester (or alkanoyloxy) with pyridine core was rare studied. Approach: To study spectral, thermal and optical behaviors of Schiff base ester possessing heterocyclic (pyridine) terminal core. A series of 4-[(pyridin-3-ylmethylene) amino] phenylalkanoates were prepared and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 7,464 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResponse of Root Properties to Tripartite Symbiosis between Lucerne (Medicago sativa L.), Rhizobia and Mycorrhiza Under Dry Organic Farming ConditionsM. R. Ardakani, G. Pietsch, A. Moghaddam et al.Problem statement: It is generally considered that root turnover is a major contributor to organic matter and mineral nutrient cycles in organic managed agroecosystems. Approach: This study designed to investigate whether microbial activity could affect on root properties of Lucerne in an organically managed field under dry weather conditions. The trial was laid out as a factorial experiment in the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 8,504 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAccelerated Search for Gaussian Generator Based on Triple Prime IntegersBoris S. Verkhovsky, Md Shiblee SadikProblem statement: Modern cryptographic algorithms are based on complexity of two problems: Integer factorization of real integers and a Discrete Logarithm Problem (DLP). Approach: The latter problem is even more complicated in the domain of complex integers, where Public Key Cryptosystems (PKC) had an advantage over analogous encryption-decryption protocols in arithmetic of real integers modulo p: The former PKC have … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2009 · 6,517 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimization of Test Scheduling and Test Access for ITC-02 SOC Benchmark CircuitsP. Sakthivel, R. Delhi Babu, P. NarayanasamyProblem statement: This study presented the optimized test scheduling and test access for ITC-02 SOC benchmark circuits using genetic algorithm. In the scheduling procedure of SOC, scheduling problem was formulated as a sequence of two problems and solved. Approach: Test access mechanism width was partitioned into two and three partitions and the applications of test vectors and test vector assignments … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,315 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Study of Fatigue Data Editing using the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT)S. Abdullah, C. K.E. Nizwan, M. Z. NuawiThis study presents the development of the STFT-based fatigue data editing technique that will be used as a tool to accelerate for accelerating fatigue testing. This technique was performed by removing low amplitude cycles contained in the original signal in order to produce a shortened signal using the Short-Time Fourier Transform (STFT) parameter. The effectiveness of STFT power spectrum was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 8,422 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHeuristic Algorithm in Optimal Discrete Structural DesignsAlongkorn Lamom, Thaksin Thepchatri, Wanchai RivepiboonThis study proposes a Heuristic Algorithm for Material Size Selection (HAMSS). It is developed to handle discrete structural optimization problems. The proposed algorithm (HAMSS), Simulated Annealing Algorithm (SA) and the conventional design algorithm obtained from a structural steel design software are studied with three selected examples. The HAMSS, in fact, is the adaptation from the traditional SA. Although the SA … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2008 · 7,345 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImplementation of Low-Memory Reference FFT on Digital Signal ProcessorYi-Pin Hsu, Shin-Yu LinProblem statement: In order to improve and implement Fast Fourier Transform (FFT), in general, an efficient parallel form in digital signal processor is necessary. The butterfly structure is an important role in FFT, because its symmetry form is suitable for hardware implementation. Although it can perform a symmetric structure, the performance will be reduced under the data-dependent flow characteristic. Even … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2008 · 7,142 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGeo-Seismic Environmental Aspects Affecting Tailings Dams FailuresJuan M. Mayoral, Miguel P. RomoSeismic performance evaluations of tailings dams are essential for characterizing the geo-environmental risks posed by these earthen structures, which should include the geotechnical hazards implied by slope instability failure, free board loss and the potential release of contaminants. The observed damage is more important when liquefaction occurs on the dam body and foundation, which often leads to cracking, settlements, tilting … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,086 accessesView PDFCite
