Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Investigation of the Relationship among Analyst Following, Managerial Ownership and Firm Valuation: From the Perspective of Agency TheoryI. J. ChenIn this study, the relationship among analyst following, managerial ownership and firm valuation is investigated from the perspective of agency theory by using a nonlinear simultaneous equation model. The data from the Taiwan stock market verify the proposed hypotheses with a nonlinear three-stage least-square procedure. The empirical results show that managerial ownership (serving an internal monitoring function) and number of … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,039 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInterest-based Recommendation in Digital LibraryYan Yang, Jian Zhong LiWith the huge amount and large variety of information available in a digital library, it’s becoming harder and harder for users to identify and get hold of their interested documents. To alleviate the difficulty, personalized recommendation techniques have been developed. Current recommendation techniques rely on similarity between documents. In our work, recommendations are made based on three factors: similarity between … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Reconfiguration of IP Domain Middleware Stacks to Support Multicast Multimedia Distribution in a Heterogeneous EnvironmentKevin Curran, Gerard ParrSeamless connectivity to multiple wireless networks independently of a fixed point is becoming increasingly important for mobile devices however wireless networks differ in bandwidth, size and access costs each requiring protocol functions to enable devices to communicate efficiently. In addition, due to the divergence of users and applications, traditional stacks are frequently enriched with additional functionality such as transport protocol … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,786 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInteraction of a C-terminal Truncated Hepatitis C Virus Core Protein with Plasmid DNA Vaccine Leads to in vitro Assembly of Heterogeneous Virus-like ParticlesNelson Acosta-Rivero, Joanna Poutou, Alexis Mussachio et al.Recently, it has been shown that HCV core proteins (HCcAg) with C-terminal deletions assemble in vitro into virus-like particles (VLPs) in the presence of structured RNA molecules. Results presented in this work showed that a truncated HCcAg variant covering the first 120 aa (HCcAg.120) with a 32 aa N-terminal fusion peptide (6xHistag-XpressTMepitope) interacts with plasmid DNA vaccine. Interestingly, the buoyant … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,756 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFactors Associated with Syringe Sharing Among Users of a Medically Supervised Safer Injecting FacilityEvan Wood, Mark W. Tyndall, Jo-Anne Stoltz et al.Vancouver, Canada recently opened a medically supervised safer injecting facility (SIF) in an effort to reduce HIV and overdose risk and public injection drug use. We sought to examine factors associated with syringe sharing among SIF users. SIF users were randomly recruited into a prospective cohort of SIF users known as the Scientific Evaluation of Supervised Injecting (SEOSI) cohort. We … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 10,764 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBinding of the scutellarin to albumin using tryptophan fluorescence quenching, CD and FT-IR spectraJianniao Tian, Jiaqin Liu, Zhide Hu, Xingguo ChenThe binding of scutellarin with bovine serum albumin (BSA) was investigated at three temperatures, 296k, 310K, and 318K, by the fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) and fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) at pH 7.40. The binding parameters were determined by Stern-Volmer equation. The thermodynamic parameters were calculated according to the dependence of enthalpy change on the temperature as follows:ΔH0 and ΔS0 … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 13,649 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Rainfall-runoff Models to Zard River Catchment'sM. B. Rahnama, G. A. BaraniRainfall-runoff models are nonlinear processes according to the sequential and spatial distribution of the rainfall. So, it is difficult to explain the response of catchments systems with the simple models. In the present work simulation of the rainfall-runoff processes have been carried out by the Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) and the HEC-HMS models. The ANN models of Multi Layer Perceptron … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,535 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractStatistical Verification of Folk Medicinal Potentiality of Wild Dicot Aquatic Plants in JordanS. Al-Qura'nThis study describes a floristic study of Jordan with its environs. The study was carried out during 2001-2003 and 287 aquatic dicot samples were collected and photographed in the field. After the identification of the specimens, the total wild aquatic dicot species have been determined as 87 species belonging to 59 genera and 33 plant families were presented in investigated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 6,483 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInfluence of Geosta Addition on Cement-stabilised Chicoco Mud of the Niger DeltaOlujide OmotoshoChicoco is a very soft and extremely compressible organic marine mud found extensively and to considerable depths within the saline tidal flat or mangrove swamp of the Niger delta in southern Nigeria. Natural chicoco is highly undesirable, barely able to support a human of average weight but air-dried chicoco has been used successfully by the indigeneous people for shore protection, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2005 · 7,587 accessesView PDFCite
