Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTechnical Efficiency of Chili ProductionA. S.M. Anwarul Huq, Fatimah Mohamed ArshadProblem statement: Scarcity of resources has led to production economists to think about the reallocation of existing resources to produce a prescribed level of output with the minimum cost without changing the production technology. But there is a lack of information about the efficient use of inputs in chili production. Except for a few descriptive studies, econometric analysis has yet … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,596 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNew Directions in Cryptanalysis of Block CiphersDavood RezaeiPour, Mohamad Rushdan Md SaidProblem statement: The algebraic expression of the Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) RIJNDAEL S-box involved only 9 terms. The selected mapping for RIJNDAEL S-box has a simple algebraic expression. This enables algebraic manipulations which can be used to mount interpolation attack. Approach: The interpolation attack was introduced as a cryptanalytic attack against block ciphers. This attack is useful for cryptanalysis using … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2009 · 7,026 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach of Adaptive Network-Based Fuzzy Inference System Modeling in Laser Processing-A Graphical User Interface (GUI) BasedSivarao, Peter Brevern, N. S.M. El-TayebProblem statement: The power of Artificial Intelligent (AI) becomes more authoritative when the system is programmed to cater the need of complex applications. MATLAB 2007B, integrating artificial intelligent system and Graphical User Interface (GUI) has reduced researchers' fear-to-model factor due to unfamiliarity and phobia to produce program codes. Approach: In this study, how GUI was developed on Matlab to model … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,004 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDetecting Hornbeam Trees Phenological Characteristics of Mountain ForestSasan Babaei Kafaki, Asadollah Mataji, Seyed Armin HashemiProblem statement: Phenology is the study of the seasonal occurrence of developmental or life cycle events, such as bud break, flowering, or autumn leaf drop. The proposed study attempted to quantify changes in Carpinus betulus L. phenology of deciduous broad leaf forest between the years 2003-2006. Approach: Phenological studies were fulfilled during four years as from January 2003-December 2006 by … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 7,273 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMonitoring Growing Season Length of Deciduous Broad Leaf Forest Derived From Satellite Data in IranSasan Babaei Kafaki, Asadollah Mataji, Seyed Armin HashemiProblem statement: Leaf phenology describes the seasonal cycle of leaf functioning and is essential for understanding the interactions between the biosphere, the climate and biogeochemical cycles. This study aimed to quantify changes in plant phenology of deciduous broadleaf forests between the years 1982-1999 and investigate the relationships between the onset dates of phenology and climatic factors. Approach: We studied the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,557 accessesView PDFCite
