Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPACT OF DEREGULATION OF THE JAMAICA MOBILE PHONE MARKET ON CALLING RATESAbdullahi O. AbdulkadriDeregulation of the telecommunications industry has led to a phenomenal growth in mobile phone service subscription in Jamaica with penetration rate reaching more than 100% within a decade of the start of deregulation. Consumers have benefited with significant cuts in rates for mobile phone service following the entry of new service providers. This study models the competition among old and … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 26 Aug 2014 · 7,697 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSTRUCTURAL AND OPTICAL STUDIES OF CONDUCTING PANI/CuS NANOCOMPOSITES ON NANOCRYSTALLINE ZINC-OXIDE THIN FILMM. A. Sangamesha, K. Pushpalatha, G. L. ShekarIn this article, a p-n heterostructure diode was developed by incorporating the synthesised nanocomposite of CuS/PANI into the hallow network of ZnO thin film deposited on the glass substrate, which hitherto not reported. Analyses of the obtained heterostructure were carried out using XRD, FT-IR, UV-Visible and SEM. The penetration, bonding and the interaction of the nanocomposite with ZnO was investigated … …Current Research in Nanotechnology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 15 Aug 2014 · 7,047 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHEURISTIC DISCRETIZATION METHOD FOR BAYESIAN NETWORKSMariana D.C. Lima, Silvia M. Nassar, Pedro Ivo R.B.G. Rodrigues et al.Bayesian Network (BN) is a classification technique widely used in Artificial Intelligence. Its structure is a Direct Acyclic Graph (DAG) used to model the association of categorical variables. However, in cases where the variables are numerical, a previous discretization is necessary. Discretization methods are usually based on a statistical approach using the data distribution, such as division by quartiles. In … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 18 Jan 2014 · 7,059 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION OF A PRIVACY PRESERVED OFF-PREMISES CLOUD STORAGESarfraz Nawaz Brohi, Mervat Adib Bamiah, Suriayati Chuprat, Jamalul-lail Ab MananDespite several cost-effective and flexible characteristics of cloud computing, some clients are reluctant to adopt this paradigm due to emerging security and privacy concerns. Organization such as Healthcare and Payment Card Industry where confidentiality of information is a vital act, are not assertive to trust the security techniques and privacy policies offered by cloud service providers. Malicious attackers have violated … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 13 Nov 2013 · 7,758 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSuppression of Salicylic Acid-Mediated Plant Defense Responses During Initial Infection of Dyer's Woad by Puccinia thlaspeosBradley R. Kropp, Elizabeth ThomasProblem statement: Puccinia thlaspeos is a microcyclic rust pathogen that is being investigated as a potential biocontrol agent of the noxious weed, dyer’s woad (Isatis tinctoria). Although, the initial events in the colonization of dyer’s woad by the rust pathogen has been elucidated using scanning electron microscopy and PCR, little is known regarding the susceptibility response of this plant to … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 3 · 4 Aug 2011 · 8,035 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy of Electromagnetic Radiation and Specific Absorption Rate of Mobile Phones with Fractional Human Head Models via Green's FunctionsNookala Srinivasa Rao, G. R. Babu, P. V.S. SrinivasProblem statement: Electromagnetic Radiation from mobile hand set is identified as one of the side effects for increasing rate of brain tumor. Due to this reason, Mobile phone industries are attentive towards safety issues of human health. Specific Absorption Rate is one of the important parameter while modeling the radiation effect on human head. Brain material with homogeneity is treated … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 16 Jul 2011 · 6,701 accessesView PDFCite
