Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of Quantitative Plant Activity Relationship (QPAR) for Diabetics II Using Genetic AlgorithmSimanta Kumar Nayak, Bikram Kesari Ratha, Payodhar Padhi et al.The present study demonstrates a novel computational approach for Indian Traditional Medicine (ITM) for the effective antidiabetic drug. Indian traditional practitioners are using many natural Herbals for the cure of diabetes. Though many diabetes patients are getting temporarily cured still its cause and effects are unknown due to lack of proper scientific investigation. Individual plant bioactivities have been already investigated … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 1 Apr 2015 · 6,715 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Price Hedging Model in Dynamic MarketKuo-Wei Lin, Kuang-Jung Tseng, Szu-Cheng ChengProblem statement: Pricing is a problem when a firm has to set a price for the first time. This happens when the firm develops or acquires a new product, introduces its regular product into a new distribution or geographical area, or enters bids on the new contract work. Many companies try to set the price to maximize current profits. They … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 7 · 3 Aug 2012 · 6,941 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling A Multi-Compartments Biological System with Membrane ComputingRavie Chandren Muniyandi, Abdullah Mohd. ZinProblem statement: Most of the biological systems have been hierarchical in structure with processes interacting between different compartments. Membrane computing formalism has provided modeling capabilities in representing the structure of biological systems. Approach: This study was carried to investigate the modeling of a multi-compartment biological system by using membrane computing formalism. The hormone-induced calcium oscillations in liver cells which was … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 10 Aug 2010 · 7,258 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSpeedup of Particle Transport Problems with a Beowulf ClusterZhongxiang Zhao, G. Ivan MaldonadoThe MCNP code is a general Monte Carlo N-Particle Transport program that is widely used in health physics, medical physics and nuclear engineering for problems involving neutron, photon and electron transport[1]. However, due to the stochastic nature of the algorithms employed to solve the Boltzmann transport equation, MCNP generally exhibits a slow rate of convergence. In fact, engineers and scientists … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,923 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMULTI-STATE MODELS OF HIV/AIDS BY HOMOGENEOUS SEMI-MARKOV PROCESSZelalem Getahun DessieMulti-state stochastic models are useful tools for studying complex dynamics such as chronic diseases. The purpose of this study is to determine factors associated with the progression between different stages of the disease and to model the progression of HIV/AIDS disease of an individual patient under ART follow-up using semi-Markov processes. A sample of 1456 patients has been taken from … …Current Research in Biostatistics, Vol. 4, Issue 2 · 11 Aug 2014 · 8,210 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE ADVERSE EFFECT OF STEEL PARTICLE CONTAMINANTS ON FATIGUE LIFE OF GREASE LUBRICATED BALL BEARINGSA. Stathis, Th. Costopoulos, D. Koulocheris, K. RaptisThe rating life of ball bearings is reduced when hard particle contaminants are present in the lubricant. Usually, this life reduction is taken into account in the calculation of modified rating life by using the contamination factor through a general characterization of the lubrication conditions. However, the impact of contaminant’s variables such as size, hardness and concentration level has to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 9 · 14 Jul 2014 · 6,995 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Human Immune Deficiency Virus and Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome on Farm HouseholdsOkezie Chukwukere Austin, Athenesius Onyekanma, Amir Hussin BaharuddinProblem statement: The impact of HIV/AIDS in Africa cut across all sectors of human development and it poses serious challenge to the survival of several vulnerable poor, whose livelihood depends solely on agriculture. This study is an attempt to contribute to the understanding of HIV/AIDS by investigating household vulnerablity and its impact on production variability in farm households. Approach: A … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 17 Sep 2011 · 8,003 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Markov Chains to Stock TrendsKevin J. Doubleday, Julius N. EsungeProblem statement: Modeling of the Dow Jones Industrial Average is frequently attempted in order to determine trading strategies with maximum payoff. Changes in the DJIA are important since movements may affect both individuals and corporations profoundly. Previous work showed that modeling a market as a random walk was valid and that a market may be viewed as having the Markov … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 18 May 2011 · 8,564 accessesView PDFCite
