Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordAn Empirical Study of Efficiency Evaluation with Dynamic Strategy Trajectory Based on DEA Algorithm and BCG Model: A Case Study of Securities IndustryCheng-Shian Lin, Chun-Yueh LinThe U.S. Subprime Mortgage Crisis in 2008 led many financial institutions, including those in the securities industry, to the verge of bankruptcy. As the securities industry has a pivotal position in financial markets, this study aims to use Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) to discuss the efficiency of the securities industry after the Financial Tsunami. In addition, this paper integrates the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 4 Apr 2018 · 8,166 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordComparative Study of Visual Odometry Performance Based on Road ClassificationsDayang Nur Salmi Dharmiza, Awang Salleh, Kuryati KipliAccuracyand robustness are among the main concerns in vehicle positioning systems andautonomous applications. These concerns are crucial in GNSS-deniedenvironments; thus, we need an alternative technology to overcome this problem.In recent years, vision-based localization known as visual odometry has gainedconsiderable attention among researchers. Visual odometry is a vision-basedpose estimation and it has been developed for mobile object localization suchas robots and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 18, Issue 11 · 26 Oct 2022 · 5,899 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordManaging Internal Parasites of Small Ruminants using Medicinal Plants a Review on Alternative Remedies, Efficacy Evaluation Techniques and Conservational StrategiesWandile Nikelo, Maliviwe Mpayipheli, Lyndy McGawThroughout the world, internal parasites are a majorhindrance to small ruminant production. The most common internal parasites ingrazing small ruminants are likely to be gastrointestinal nematodes. They causea reduction in live-weight gain, wool growth, poor reproductive performance,and increased production costs and thus hamper global food security.Pharmaceutical control continues to be the main measure used to manage orcontrol internal parasites, however … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 17, Issue 4 · 6 Oct 2022 · 6,847 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordDesign, Fabrication and Operational Evaluation of a Co-Pyrolysis System for Waste-Plastics Derived Fuels: A Study of Edo NorthKevin Otoikhian, Ubani Oluwaseun Amune, Kennedy Edogamhe et al.This research work designed, developed and assessed the performance of a co-pyrolysis system generating waste-plastic extract fuels from mixed Municipal Waste Plastics (MWP) while evaluating High-Density Polyethylene (HDPE), Polypropylene (PP) and Polystyrene (PS) as the main municipal waste plastic sources. The materials selected for the reactor were carefully studied to meet the pyrolysis system's strength, operability and safety requirements.

Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEvaluation of Various Compiler Optimization Techniques Related to Mibench Benchmark ApplicationsJeyaraj Andrews, Thangappan SasikalaTuning compiler optimization for a given application of particular computer architecture is not an easy task, because modern computer architecture reaches higher levels of compiler optimization. These modern compilers usually provide a larger number of optimization techniques. By applying all these techniques to a given application degrade the program performance as well as more time consuming. The performance of the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 6 · 6 Jun 2013 · 7,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEvaluation of Metarhizium anisopliae var. anisopliae (Deuteromycotina: Hyphomycete) Isolates and their Effects on Subterranean Termite Coptotermes curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae)Pik-Kheng Hoe, Choon-Fah J. Bong, Kadir Jugah, Amartalingam RajanProblem statement: Coptotermes curvignathus (Isoptera: Rhinotermitidae) is a common termite pest found in oil palm plantation planted on peat. Currently, the control methods focus on using insecticides that lead to high cost and adverse effect to the environment. Approach: Biological control like the use of entomopathogens provides an alternative control method for termite infestation problem. However, several factors need to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2009 · 10,542 accessesView PDFCite
