Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGas Turbine Ontology for the Industrial ProcessesF. Z. Laallam, M. SellamiThe activity of supervision and control of the industrial processes is a very complex spot and require a great experiment because of the dynamic characteristics of the process. This experiment was acquired with the passing of years. What makes departure of an expert in retirement a great loss of the know-how. The problem thus consists to capture this know-how and … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 7,301 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRetinoids Chemosensitize Ovarian Cancer Cell Lines to Cisplatin Independent of Nuclear Receptors and p53Suresh Guruswamy, Doris M. BenbrookTreatment of ovarian cancer with cisplatin-based chemotherapy is highly toxic and is often followed by cancer recurrence. Repeated treatments with cisplatin frequently result in the development of resistance to this drug. Drugs with low toxicity that could enhance the tumor cell killing effects of cisplatin could potentially reduce the toxicity and enhance the efficacy of cisplatin. The mechanism of cell … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,962 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiochemical Effects of Recombinant Porcine Somatotropin on Pig Fetal Growth and Metabolism: A ReviewD. Villanueva-García, S. A. Olmos-Hernández, D. Mota-Rojas et al.Prenatal development is mainly dependent on a close interrelation between nutritional supply use and regulation by hormones and growth factors. Mechanisms during early embryonic development are sensitive to manipulation through selected management strategies of the sow and modifications of this strategy may serve as a model for the examination of molecular and cellular events controlling early embryonic growth. The administration … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,626 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeparation of the Control Plane and Forwarding Plane in Next-Generation RoutersRachid N. Takourout, Samuel Pierre, Laurent MarchandEver since the Internet appeared, network elements, such as routers, have been enhanced with much functionality. They tend to increasingly integrate more services, such as support and security mechanisms, which ensure Quality of Service. Similarly, processor performance continues to increase rapidly. Thus, these two types of evolution trigger the concept of separating the Control plane and the Forwarding plane in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 6,580 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of AP-1 Antagonism in Growth Inhibition of Cervical Cancer Cell Lines by RetinoidsShennan Lu, Doris M. BenbrookRetinoid compounds induce multiple molecular effects that need to be taken into consideration in the development of theses agents as pharmaceuticals for cancer chemoprevention. Inhibition of cancer cell growth by retinoids is thought to occur through at least two mechanisms of transcriptional regulation resulting from direct binding of retinoids to nuclear retinoid receptors (RARs and RXR’s). First, the nuclear receptors … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,481 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNutritional Alterations in Drug Abusers With and Without HIVJanet E. ForresterMany studies have found that drug abusers have nutritional deficits, including weight deficits. The most plausible explanation for these deficits is dietary insufficiency. However, studies using objective measures of the dietary intake of drug abusers have failed to provide evidence of dietary insufficiency. Other mechanisms have rarely been examined. This article reviews the published literature on the nutritional status of … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,450 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Assessment of Mirex Concentrations along the Southern Shorelines of the Great Lakes, USADennis A. Apeti, Gunnar G. lauensteinMirex is a persistent and toxic polychlorinated pesticide that has compromised environmental quality in the Great Lakes region since the 1960s. As a bioaccumulative and carcinogenic compound, mirex at its current levels in Lake Ontario is a concern because of the potential for trophic level transfer and biomagnification in top predators. As a part of the NOAA’s National Status and … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,938 accessesView PDFCite

How banking sector finds itself before a new fact imposed by technology revolution and digits to change their work mechanisms from traditional means to electronic means and the challenges banks face as a result. Furthermore, this study investigates the reasons behinds providing electronic banking services … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2006 · 8,772 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHuman-Robot Interface over the Web Based Intelligent SystemDesa Hazry, Masanori Sugisaka, Taki YujiThis research extends the capability for the new technology platform by Remote Data Inspection System (RDIS) server from Furukawa Co., Ltd. enabling the integration of standard Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) programming and RDIS tag programming to create a user-friendly “point-and-click” web-based control mechanism. The integration allows the users to send commands to mobile robot over the Internet. Web-based control enables … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Aug 2006 · 6,961 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOperation of an SLA-aware Grid FabricMatthias HovestadtResearch on Grid Computing started under purely technical questions of how to realize the virtualization of distributed resources. Now, the commercial user should be attracted to use the Grid. Future applications of the Next Generation Grid will demand for flexible negotiation mechanisms supporting various ways of Quality-of-Service (QoS) guarantees. In this context a Service Level Agreement (SLA) is a powerful … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,663 accessesView PDFCite
