Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCONGESTION MANAGEMENT BY OPTIMAL ALLOCATION OF FACTS CONTROLLERS USING HYBRID FISH BEE OPTIMIZATIONS. Thangalakshmi, P. ValsalalThe role of Independent System Operator (ISO) in the restructured power industry includes system control, capacity planning, transmission tariff and congestion management; the challenging task being minimizing the congestion. One of the popular techniques used to alleviate congestion is using Flexible AC Transmission Systems (FACTS) devices. The power system generally operates near its rated capacity in deregulated market because of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Apr 2014 · 6,645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsISOLATION AND DETECTION OF HELICOBACTER PYLORI FROM PATIENTS SUFFERING FROM PEPTIC ULCER USING BIOCHEMICAL TESTS AND MOLECULAR TECHNIQUESRuba S. Abu-Sbeih, Azmi D. Hawari, Dhia S. Hassawi, Hala I. Al-DaghistaniHelicobacter pylori is the causative agent of most cases of gastritis. There is no established gold standard for the diagnosis of H. pylori infection. A reliable diagnosis is crucial to confirm that eradication therapy has been successful. Eighty gastric biopsy and blood samples were obtained from fasting Jordanian patients with Esophago-Gastro-Doudenoscopy (EGD). Several diagnosis tests for H. pylori infections were … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 28 Mar 2014 · 8,183 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsGenerator Dynamic Performance Affected by Parameter’s UncertaintyAkbar Beik Khormizi, Mohammad Reza Aghamohammadi, Mina RezaeeThis study investigates the effect of generator parameters inaccuracy on the transient stability performance of generator and power system. Normally, generator parameters are identified either by calculation based on design specification or by measurements. In both approaches the parameters are obtained with some degree of inaccuracy. Inaccuracy and uncertainty in the obtained parameters can affect the dynamic performance and transient … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 6 · 8 Jun 2013 · 6,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsReading Acquisition and Phonological Awareness: Beyond the Segmental LevelCyrille Magne, Melissa BrockProblem statement: Phonological awareness is a major contributor to reading development. While the literature has primarily focused on the segmental aspect of phonology, suprasegmental information, namely prosody, has been largely underexplored in comparison. Approach: This review focuses on recent behavioral and neuroimaging studies on the development of prosody sensitivity during early childhood and the influence of prosody on reading processes. … …Neuroscience International, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 19 Mar 2012 · 13,737 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Decision Making Tool for Hazardous Waste Landfill Site SelectionP. Pandiyan, A. Murugesan, T. Vidhyadevi et al.Problem statement: Continuous global environmental crisis and degradation has been a challenge for the sustainability of living on earth. This threat was posed by industrialization, high products need, urbanization and population growth activities. As a result, the hazardous waste generation has tremendously increased. Approach: Landfill was one of the positive approaches to handle hazardous waste generated in great quantity. The … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 7,416 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsA Study on the Increase of Numerical Stability and Accuracy of the Transfer Matrix MethodIoannis S. Zotos, Theodore N. CostopoulosProblem Statement: The transfer matrix method is a very useful tool for the static and dynamic analysis of structures. There are a number of issues though that worsens the numerical stability and the accuracy of this method. Approach: This study proposed a simple technique that can be used to handle these numerical difficulties and overcome the problems they give. Its … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 7,030 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsOptimal Control of the D-Policy M/G/1 Queueing System with Server BreakdownsKuo-Hsiung Wang, Ching-Chang Kuo, Jau-Chuan KeThis study deals with a single server in the D-policy M/G/1 queueing system in which the server is turned off at the end of each complete period and is activated again only when the cumulative completion times of the customers in the system exceeds a given level D. While the server is working, he is subject to breakdowns according to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,604 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThe Determinants of Urban Household Poverty in MalaysiaT. Y. Mok, C. Gan, A. SanyalSince independence in 1950s Malaysia has been recognized as one of the more successful countries in fighting poverty: head count ratio came down to 5.7% by 2004. However the recent process of rapid urbanization has led to an increase of urban poverty aggravated further by the 1997 Asian financial crisis. It is important to understand the nature and scale of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 9,855 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsTolerances Applied in Combinatorial OptimizationBoris Goldengorin, Gerold Jäger, Paul MolitorIn this paper we deal with sensitivity analysis of combinatorial optimization problems and its fundamental term, the tolerance. For three classes of objective functions (∑, ∏, MAX) we give some basic properties on upper and lower tolerances. We show that the upper tolerance of an element is well defined, how to compute the upper tolerance of an element and give … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 18,423 accessesView PDFCite
