Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVarying Overhead Ad Hoc on Demand Vector Routing in Highly Mobile Ad Hoc NetworkV. Balaji, V. DuraisamyProblem statement: An inherent feature of mobile ad hoc networks is the frequent change of network topology leading to stability and reliability problems of the network. Highly dynamic and dense network have to maintain acceptable level of service to data packets and limit the network control overheads. This capability is closely related as how quickly the network protocol control overhead … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 7 May 2011 · 6,997 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling of Multi-Level Capacitated Lot-Size Scheduling ProblemZuhaimy Ismail, Diyana Abd Mahad, Tan Siew ChingProblem statement: Lot-size is the clustering of items for transportation or manufacturing processes occurring at the same time. The issue in lot-size problem is to design production processes so that the feasible production quantities are equal to customer demand quantities and the timing of production is such that inventory positions are almost zero. Approach: In this study, we explore the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2011 · 7,319 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of a "Programmable Logic Controller Circuitry" For Optimal Power Distribution in a Manufacturing IndustriesK. SelvarajProblem statement: In industries the powder demand/consumption is fixed by the power supply agency. However, at times, the demand/Consumption may exceed the fixed level and will result in, the industry paying heavy penalties to the supply agency. In most of the large and medium scale industries, controlling of power consumption is done by monitoring the powder demand indicator unit activated … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,276 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalyzing the Effects of Water and Agriculture Policy Strategies: An Iranian experienceReza Moghaddasi, Ali Bakhshi, Mahmood Daneshvar KakhkiProblem statement: Because of growing demand for water resources, increasing cost of supplying water and overdraft of underground waters, economists suggest water pricing policy to improve water allocation efficiency in Iran.

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProduct Quality and Effective Demand under StagnationWataru JohdoProblem statement: Recent neoclassical theoretical study, particularly in the endogenous growth literature, has studied the nature of the relationship between economic growth and product quality. However, little attention has been given to the impact of a rise in product quality on effective demand under stagnation. This is because previous models have assumed that demand is always met with supply in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2009 · 6,888 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBridging from Cells to Cognition in Autism Pathophysiology: Biological Pathways to Defective Brain Function and PlasticityMatthew P. Anderson, Brian S. Hooker, Martha R. HerbertWe review evidence to support a model where the disease process underlying autism may begin when an in utero or early postnatal environmental, infectious, seizure, or autoimmune insult triggers an immune response that increases reactive oxygen species (ROS) production in the brain that leads to DNA damage (nuclear and mitochondrial) and metabolic enzyme blockade and that these inflammatory and oxidative … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2008 · 17,455 accessesView PDFCite
