Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Effluent from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka Wastewater Treatment Plant for Irrigation PurposesEmmanuel Amagu Echiegu, Ogochukwu Ruth Eya, Samson Nnaemeka Ugwu, Boniface UgwuishiwuThis study was carried out to determine the suitability of effluents from the University of Nigeria, Nsukka (UNN) sewage treatment facility for irrigation purposes. The result shows that, from the point of view of ECw, SAR, solids, organic matter content, ion toxicity and nutrients (except Phosphate), the UNN wastewater treatment plant effluent can be safely used for irrigation, especially under … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 21 Apr 2016 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEMPIRICAL COMPARISON OF TWO METRICS SUITES FOR MAINTAINABILITY PREDICTION IN PACKAGES OF OBJECT-ORIENTED SYSTEMS: A CASE STUDY OF OPEN SOURCE SOFTWAREK.G. MadhwarajSoftware maintainability has been an important external quality attribute that concerns both styles of software development, the proprietary model as well as open source. As lots of open source software are predominantly built using the OO paradigm, there exists a need for empirical validation with respect to certain quality aspects especially maintainability. There are a few studies in the past … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 10 Dec 2014 · 8,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiomarker Quantitation: Analytical Considerations for Ligand Binding Assay Regression Curves and Quality Control SamplesMark DysingerAs biomarkers grow in relevance for both the design and support of therapeutics and the clinical trials associated with them, there is an ever increasing need for accurate quantitation of these biochemical entities in biological matrices. While quantifying many biotherapeutics via ligand binding assay platforms can be fairly straightforward, biomarkers present some unique challenges that must be taken into account … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 25 Aug 2012 · 8,028 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHospital Water Supply as a Potential Source of Opportunistic PathogensH. T. El-Zanfaly, N. A. Hassanean, E. M. Hassan, L. I. El-SeadawyIn Egypt as well as in many other developing countries, there are no specific standards for hospital water. Even water is free from the traditional bacterial indicators, it may represent a source of health hazards especially for elderly, children and patients under dialysis due to the presence of opportunistic pathogenic bacteria. The study was carried out on the bacteriological water … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 18 May 2012 · 7,274 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Shrimp Farm Effluent on Water Quality in Coastal Areas of the World Heritage-Listed Ha Long BayThuyet D. Bui, Jim Luong-Van, Chris M. AustinProblem statement: Shrimp farming has rapidly developed in coastal areas of the World Heritage-listed Ha Long Bay since the last decade. Effluent discharged from shrimp farms with high levels of nutrient waste may cause eutrophication in receiving waterways. Therefore, assessing water quality at tidal creeks receiving shrimp farm effluent in coastal areas of Ha Long Bay supports environmental protection and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 3 Mar 2012 · 11,283 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImproving Diagnostic Viewing of Medical Images using Enhancement AlgorithmsHanan Saleh S. Ahmed, Md Jan NordinProblem statement: Various images are low quality and difficultly to detect and extract information. Therefore, the image has to get under a process called image enhancement which contains an aggregation of techniques that look for improving the visual aspect of an image. Medical images are one of the fundamental images, because they are used in more sensitive field which is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 18 Oct 2011 · 7,991 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Evaluation of Multi-Pulse Based Code Excited Linear Predictive Speech Coder with Bitrate Scalable Tool over Additive White Gaussian Noise and Rayleigh Fading ChannelsSuphattharachai ChomphanProblem statement: In the modern speech communication technology, the speech coding with bitrate scalability was needed. However, various types of noises in the communication channels cause damages in the transmitted information especially speech data. Tonal-language speech was also affected by this situation. Approach: Based on the high pitch delay resolution technique, the MPCELP speech coding was proposed over the environment … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 12 · 6 Nov 2010 · 7,085 accessesView PDFCite
