Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWeb-based Digital Video Sequencing SystemKhalid A. KaabnehIn order to access and retrieve Internet shared videos, there is a clear need for structuring to decrease search and loading time. Video segmentation is the process of dividing a video clip into segments of similar characteristics. Based on our segmentation research, this study proposes a complete Digital Video Sequencing and retrieval tool, aimed for the Internet users. This ongoing … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Variable Neighborhood Search Algorithm for Assigning Cells to Switches in Wireless NetworksMatthieu Andr, Gilles Pesant, Samuel PierreThe problem of assigning cells to switches in wireless networks consists of minimizing the total operating cost, that is, the cost of linking cells to switches and the cost of handover from one cell to another, by taking into account factors such as network topology, switch capacity and traffic load in the entire network. Such a problem is well known … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,753 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Design and Implementation of Parallel Digital Library Management SystemYang Yan, Li Jianzhong, Kan ZhongliangAs the number of documents in digital library grows, it becomes increasingly difficult to store, manage the large amount of documents and finding requested relevant documents by users. Parallel Digital Library management System (PDLS) is used for this purpose. PDLS is a general tool for building and managing digital libraries of all kinds of documents to meet user needs. It … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,286 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSearching of Main Cause Leading to Severe Influenza A Virus Mutations and Consequently to Influenza Pandemics/EpidemicsGuang Wu, Shaomin YanThe unpredictable mutations in the proteins from influenza A virus lead to the great difficulty in prevention of possible outbreak of bird flu and pandemic/epidemic of influenza. This unpredictability is due to the fact that we know little about the causes that lead to the mutations. In three of our recent studies on the hemagglutinins from influenza A virus, we … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 9,975 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExperimental Study of Parameters Influencing the Purity of Potassium Sulfate Fertilizer Produced from Jordanian Raw MaterialsMousa GougazehThe general objective of the present investigation was to make a contribution towards improving the purity of the produced potassium sulfate from (KCl, Arab Potash Company-Dead Sea) and (H2SO4, Jordanian Phosphate Company). The process parameters influencing the contamination of the poisoning chlorine within the product were experimentally investigated. The experiments were performed in a small-scale batch reactor equipped with a … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,046 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduction, Yield and Derivatives of Volatile Oils from Eastern Redcedar (Juniperus Virginiana L.)Elif Semen, Salim HizirogluEastern redcedar (Juniperus virginiana L.) is one of the most widely distributed indigenous conifers in southern states including Oklahoma, Arkansas and Texas. Eastern redcedar is also an important source of the volatile oils. This specie adversely influences the environment resulting in degrading grassland, displacement of native plant population and increasing wildlife hazard. Range-grown eastern redcedar has a poor quality. However, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,760 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImatinib Mesylate Inhibits Glucose Uptake in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumor Cells by Downregulation of the Glucose Transporters Recruitment to the Plasma MembraneHans Prenen, Cristiana Stefan, Bart Landuyt et al.Imatinib mesylate, the inhibitor of the KIT protein tyrosine kinase that is constitutively activated in Gastrointestinal Stromal Tumors (GISTs), has been established as the first highly effective drug in the treatment of patients with advanced GISTs. Recent studies suggest that changes in the glucose metabolism could be an additional mechanism of the anti-proliferative action of imatinib. The aim of this … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,248 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Reversible Method of Epiphysiodesis-An Experimental Study in RabbitsMahmood Karimi-Mobarakeh, Reza Malekpour-Afshar, Nozar Nakhaee et al.Lower limb discrepancy and angular deformities are among the most common orthopedic problems in pediatrics. All methods for correction of these deformities are irreversible and the epiphyseal growth plate is arrested. Current study describes a new reversible method of epiphysiodesis. At the first step, we decided to examine angular deformity of the knee.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIncreasing the Strength of Standard Involute Gear Teeth with Novel Circular Root Fillet DesignV. Spitas, Th. Costopoulos, C. SpitasIn this study the idea of spur gear teeth with circular instead of the standard trochoidal root fillet is introduced and investigated numerically using BEM. The strength of these new teeth is studied in comparison with the standard design by discretizing the tooth boundary using isoparametric Boundary Elements. In order to facilitate the analysis the teeth are treated as non-dimensional … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2005 · 7,592 accessesView PDFCite
