Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPrediction of a Putative Functional Region in the Human Bax Protein by Computational AnalysisMaría Sánchez-Aguilar, Laurence A. Marchat, Absalom ZamoranoStructural domains are relevant elements for interactions between Bcl-2 family members to regulate apoptosis and cell survival. Although BH1-BH4 domains can be identified by their sequence and selective occurrence in Bcl-2-family members, structural regions have not been entirely determined yet. The functional residues of Bax, the most representative pro-apoptotic protein of the human Bcl-2 family, remain almost unknown. Here, we … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,230 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemoval and Recovery of Uranium using Microorganisms Isolated from North American Uranium DepositsTakehiko TsurutaSome attempts were made to remove and recover uranium that may be present in nuclear fuel effluents and mine tailings using microorganisms isolated from North American uranium deposits. To establish which microorganisms accumulate the most uranium, hundreds strains of microorganisms were screened. Of these strains of microorganisms tested, extremely high uranium accumulating ability was found in some bacteria isolated from … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,285 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTreatment of Landfill Leachate using Limestone/Sandstone Filters Under Aerobic Batch ConditionsAbdel E. Ghaly, M.A. Kamal, N.S. Mahmoud, R. CoteThe suitability of a passive technology, consisting of filters composed of a mixture of limestone and sandstone rocks, for the treatment of landfill leachates containing 6.6 mg Lˉ1 iron and 1.8 mg Lˉ1 manganese were investigated. The limestone and the limestone/sandstone filters successfully removed iron from the prepared solutions. The filters removed on average a minimum of 97.60% of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,066 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStudy and Realization of the Basic Methods of the Calibration in Stereopsis For Augmented RealityFezani Mustapha, Batouche Chaouki, Benhocine AbdelhamidAugmented reality (RA) is aimed at ameliorating our perception of the real world by addition of elements which are not a priori observable by the human eye. RA is define as a system able of combining real and virtual pictures, in 3D and real-time. The virtual objects must be cast in a consistent manner in real pictures. In practice, objects … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,743 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasuring the Costs of Production Based on Sizes of Farm Operation: A Study on Rice Farmers in Jessore District of BangladeshShaikh Moksadur Rahman, Jun TakedaThe quantity of rice production has increased regardless of the land operation size in recent years, but small and medium farmers still have a serious problem especially regarding the increasing cost involved in the production. As rice is the main crop, the condition of production, cost incurred in different inputs, purchasing nature of inputs and the source of production elements … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Pulsewidth Analysis in the Presence of PMD and PDL in Optical Fibers Using Neural Network AlgorithmA. Sivasubramanian, V. C. RavichandranIn long haul networks, the random birefringence induced in the optical fiber leads to a considerable Polarization Mode Dispersion (PMD). Polarization Dependent Loss (PDL) mainly occurs in optical components and depends on the state of polarization of optical signals. The presence of PMD and PDL causes pulsewidth narrowing and the pulsewidth reduction depends on states of polarization at which the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,053 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPacked Forest Chart ParserQi Haoliang, Li Sheng, Yang Muyun, Zhao TiejunPacked forest chart parser, like the traditional chart parsing algorithm, uses charts to store all the information produced while parsing to avoid redundant works. Its advantage over the traditional chart parser was the packed forest representation. The algorithm not only shares the non-terminal categories as what was done in the shared parse forest, but also shares the leftmost common elements. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 6,556 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuilding an e-Government e-Trust InfrastructureHussein Al- Omari, Ahmed Al- OmariThis paper presents a Trust Model for e-Government implementation. In the first part of the paper, the trust definition from different points of view (psychology, philosophy, linguistic, sociology, and mathematics) was presented. Most people think that to build trust between the government and its customers or citizens, one must start by implementing IT Security and some kinds of Customer Relationship … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractScenarios Analysis of Tourism DestinationsAnastasios Michailidis, Fotis ChatzitheodoridisThis study describes a multi-criteria decision-making framework employed to evaluate and rank three tourism destinations, located in the northern and central Greece. Additionally, innovatory elements are the incorporation of differing levels of socioeconomic data (destination image and destination personality) within the decision framework and the direct determination of the PROMETHEE II preference thresholds. The developed methodology provides a user-friendly approach, … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,490 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Solution Code for Structural Analysis upon Joint ElementS. A. Sadrnejad, M. LabibzadehThe analysis of large structures mostly requires a complete three dimensional finite element discretization. Stability of such structures includes not only the stability of structure itself but also that of foundation as well as interconnection elements. The general instability of a structure may be affected by two aspects, firstly, an inappropriate preliminary classical design of the structure and inadequate control … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 6,442 accessesView PDFCite
