Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Scheduling of Packets in Wireless Sensor Networks Using Priority Based Scheduling ApproachB. Booba, T.V. GopalThe packet scheduling is essential and plays an important role to sense the element nodes with resource constraints in Wireless Networks. The packet scheduling scheme also scale the energy consumption and end-to-end information transmission delay in time period and non-real-time information packets during wireless transmission. The proposed Priority based Packet Scheduling (PPS) technique has a tendency to overcome the issues … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 9 Aug 2014 · 7,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA STOCHASTIC FRONTIER APPROACH FOR MEASURING TECHNICAL EFFICIENCY OF SMALL-SCALE IMPROVED SALT PRODUCTION IN GUINEABoubacar Siddighi Balde, Hajime Kobayashi, Makoto Nohmi et al.Salt production is a major driving force behind the loss of mangrove in Guinea. As the traditional salt production causes increasing deforestation, the intensive exploitation of mangrove resources has now reached a critical threshold. Therefore, improved techniques using sunlight as the source of energy has been introduced as an alternative to the traditional salt production techniques which consumes a significant … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 14 May 2014 · 7,641 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAUTOMATIC TEXT EXTRACTION FROM COMPLEX COLORED IMAGES USING GAMMA CORRECTION METHODG. Gayathri Devi, C. P. SumathiThe aim of this study is to propose a new methodology for text region extraction and non text region removal from complex background colored images. This study presents a new approach based on Gamma correction by determining a gamma value for enhancing the foreground details in an image. The approach also uses gray level co-occurrence matrices, texture measures, threshold concepts. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 24 Dec 2013 · 6,679 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractResource Selection in Grid Environment Based on Trust Evaluation Using Feedback and PerformancePrakash Mohan, Ravichandran ThangavelA grid computing is a collection of distributed computing resources owned by many organizations across boundaries and not dedicated for a single user available in the Virtual Organization. Grid computing environment provides more computational capabilities to increase the scalability and efficiency of the infra-structure. Resource selection in computational grid is the open issue for executing complex jobs. Trust is the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 24 Jul 2013 · 7,169 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Beneficial Effect of Asiaticoside on Experimental Neuropathy in Diabetic RatsChonlathip Thipkaew, Jintanaporn Wattanathorn, Supaporn MuchimapuraThough diabetic neuropathy produces high impact on quality of life, annual cost and morbidities, the therapeutic efficacy is still not in a satisfaction level. Based on the crucial role of oxidative stress on the pathophysiology of diabetic neuropathy and the improvement of this condition induced by antioxidant, we hypothesized that asiaticoside, a substance possessing antioxidant activity, could provide beneficial effect. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 31 Aug 2012 · 7,051 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Evaluation of Adaptive Filter and Neuro-Fuzzy Filter in Artifacts Removal From Electroencephalogram SignalPaulchamy Balaiah, IlavennilaProblem statement: This study presents an effective method for removing mixed artifacts (EOG-Electro-ocular gram, ECG-Electrocardiogram, EMG-Electromyogram) from the EEG-Electroencephalogram records. The noise sources increases the difficulty in analyzing the EEG and obtaining clinical information. EEG signals are multidimensional, non-stationary (i.e., statistical properties are not invariant in time), time domain biological signals, which are not reproducible. It is supposed to contain … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 10 · 15 Aug 2012 · 7,087 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach for 3D Range Image Segmentation using Gradient MethodDina A. Hafiz, Walaa M. Sheta, Sahar Bayoumi, Bayumy A.B. YoussefProblem statement: Segmentation of 3D range images is widely used in computer vision as an essential pre-processing step before the methods of high-level vision can be applied. Segmentation aims to study and recognize the features of range image such as 3D edges, connected surfaces and smooth regions. Approach: This study presents new improvements in segmentation of terrestrial 3D range images … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 19,592 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractUse of Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction for Determining Copy Numbers of Transgenes in Lesquerella fendleriGrace Qianhong Chen, Jiann-Tsyh LinProblem statement: In transgenic plants, the number of transgene copies could greatly influence the level of expression and genetic stability of the target gene, thus it is important to develop an efficient method for accurate estimation of transgene copies. The quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (qPCR) technique is becoming more efficient nowadays to determine copy numbers of transgenes in transgenic plants, … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2010 · 8,191 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeature Extraction for Characterization of Breast Lesions in Ultrasound Echography and ElastographyShirley Selvan, M. Kavitha, S. Shenbagadevi, S. SureshProblem statement: Elastography is developed as a quantitative approach to imaging linear elastic properties of tissues to detect suspicious tumors. We propose an automatic feature extraction method in ultrasound elastography and echography for characterization of breast lesions. Approach: The proposed algorithm was tested on 40 pairs of biopsy proven ultrasound elastography and echography images of which 11 are cystic, 16 … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2010 · 8,315 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractElectromagnetic Assessment on Human Safety of Mobile Communication Base Stations at University of MacauK.H. Chiang, K.W. TamAssessment of the electromagnetic exposure due to the mobile communication base station at University of Macau is presented by two testing scenarios. The first scenario about 20 in-situ measurements and the maximum E-field strength was 2.46 V/m that well below the threshold and compliant to the safety guideline. The second scenario investigates on the distance effect of exposure due to … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2008 · 6,752 accessesView PDFCite
