Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractManagement of Data for Health Performance Measurement in the Industrialized Dairy HerdMogens Agerbo Krogh, Carsten EnevoldsenOne part of dairy herd management is to handle disease occurrence by means of health promotion, disease prevention, timely medical treatments, or eradication of disease. Supporting this part of herd management is an essential task for the cattle veterinarian. The study objective was to identify principles and tools for analysis of herd health data in industrialized dairy herds. The analysis … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 23 Nov 2012 · 8,253 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRectangular Storm Sewer Design Under Equal Sediment MobilityJaber AlmedeijRectangular storm sewers are conduits delivering water to outfall locations and have sizes that are typically larger than standard pipes, by which they become subject to more sediment deposits during operation and thus require higher flow strengths to maintain the bed clean. This study suggests a design procedure of self-cleansing rectangular sewers based on maintaining a lower limit of Shields … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 19 Jun 2012 · 7,752 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutism Worldwide: Prevalence, Perceptions, Acceptance, ActionPatricia B. Kopetz, E. Desmond Lee EndowedThis metanalysis scrutinizes the growth of the neurodevelopment condition known as “autism” as a modern-day phenomenon. Over the past decade and worldwide, estimates of increases between 50% to over 2000% in cases of Autistic Disorder diagnoses have been charted, studied and discussed. The rise in diagnoses of autism impacts us all. The world seeks greater awareness and understanding of the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 22 Feb 2012 · 11,665 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of an Algorithm for Fiber-to-the-Home Passive Optical Network Automatic Self-restoration Scheme Using Access Control SystemMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Siti Raihan Ahmad MahirProblem statement: Cables that are installed outdoors are subjected to harsh environmental conditions which make break down inevitable. When this happen it will disrupt the services and cause trouble to the users. To overcome this is to provide a means of restoring the network in case of failure. We introduced the Access Control System (ACS) and Customer Access Protection Unit … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 19 Oct 2011 · 6,899 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProgrammable System on Chip Distributed Communication and Control Approach for Human Adaptive Mechanical SystemAhmad ‘Athif Mohd Faudzi, Koichi SuzumoriProblem statement: Communication and control are two main components in any Mechatronics system. They can be designed either by centralized or decentralized approach. Both approaches can be chosen based on application designed and specific requirements of the designer. In this study, decentralized or normally called distributed approach was selected to solved communication and control of a human adaptive mechanical system … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2010 · 6,733 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow-Birth Weight and Pre-Term Delivery in Relation to Lopinavir/Ritonavir Use in PregnancyJorge Senise, Reisson Cruz, Ricardo Palacios et al.The toxic potential of nevirapine in pregnant women with CD4 count over 250 cells mm-3 and the unsatisfactory efficacy of nelfinavir in patients with baseline Viral Load (VL) over 100,000 copies mL-1 has prompted the use of Lopinavir/ritonavir (LPV/r) in selected situations. This study aims to assess safety of LPV/r in pregnancy. Medical records from pregnant women receiving LPV/r were … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,954 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCost Elasticities of Reliability and MTTF for k-out-of-n SystemsAli Muhammad Rushdi, Abdulaziz Efain AlsulamiThe application of the concept of cost elasticity of reliability was extended from the parallel system to the partially redundant or k-out-of-n:G(F) system (or k-out-of-n system, for short). An expression for the cost elasticity of reliability was derived for a general k-out-of-n system. The expression yielded acceptable results for a wide range of values for k, n, and component reliability. … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,295 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractData Quality and IndicatorsJorge Matute, A.P. GuptaThis study highlights the importance of collecting good quality data from multidisciplinary studies. Bias in data may be the result of instrument inaccuracies, imprecise data recording techniques, inaccurate data entry to computers or inappropriate statistical analysis and presentation. Recommendations for good data quality control are given. Different types of data are discussed: raw data, simple indicators and complex indicators. It … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractObserved Abrupt Changes in Minimum and Maximum Temperatures in Jordan in the 20th CenturyMahmoud M. SmadiThis study examines changes in annual and seasonal mean (minimum and maximum) temperatures variations in Jordan during the 20th century. The analyses focus on the time series records at the Amman Airport Meteorological (AAM) station. The occurrence of abrupt changes and trends were examined using cumulative sum charts (CUSUM) and bootstrapping and the Mann-Kendall rank test. Statistically significant abrupt changes … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,925 accessesView PDFCite
