Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordNorm Divergence Opportunity Structure and Utilization of Self-Employed Immigrants' QualificationsShahamak Rezaei, Marco GoliProblem statement: Denmark experienced one of the most successful periods of its economy in 2004-2008, with a tremendous reduction of 77% in unemployment. Due to the structural challenges with regard to the labor market the utilization of immigrants’ qualifications has come up to the surface of political and societal debate in Denmark. The focus of this study was challenges to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2009 · 7,832 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordImproving the Accuracy of Effort Estimation through Fuzzy Set Representation of SizeCh. Satyananda Reddy, KVSVN RajuProblem statement: The precision and reliability of the effort estimation is very important for the competitiveness of software companies. The uncertainty at the input level of the Constructive Cost Model (COCOMO) yields uncertainty at the output, which leads to gross estimation error in the effort estimation. Fuzzy logic-based cost estimation models are more appropriate when vague and imprecise information was … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2009 · 7,085 accessesView PDFCite

This research investigated (i) whether land uses have downgraded the coastal areas (ii) to which degree the determination of land uses can play an important role in the reduction of environmental … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 7,995 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordPassive Transfer of HIV-1 Antibodies and Drug Resistant Virus during a Health Care Worker Accident: Implications for HCW Post-Exposure ManagementCarlos Fernando De Oliveira, Ricardo Sobhie Diaz, Abdallah Harmache et al.Problem statement: We studied in detail a case in which a nurse caring for an HIV-infected child suffered a deep-laceration accident with contaminated blood. Approach: The patient had been treated with zidovudine (ZDV) and the nurse became infected despite prophylactic use of ZDV initiated 2 h after the accident. A reactive anti-HIV-1/2 EIA and an indeterminate western blot (gp120/160 reactivity) … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,872 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordHydropower System Management Considering the Minimum OutflowM. L. Arganis, R. DomínguezThis paper deals with the operating rules of the Grijalva River hydropower serial system obtained by means of stochastic dynamic programming and its subsequent simulation using historical records and synthetic series. Penalties in spills and deficit were considered in optimum policies. During simulation several restrictions were added to the original problem, particularly to ensure minimum outflow so as to guarantee … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 3 · 30 Jun 2008 · 6,540 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordEnergy Aware Optimal Routing for Wireless Sensor NetworksS. Chandramathi, U. Anand, T. Ganesh et al.Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) is a collection of autonomous devices with computational, sensing, and wireless communication capabilities. The sensor nodes are low cost, multi-functional devices that are densely deployed either inside the phenomenon or very close to it and are often powered by independent power sources. The lifetime of such sensor nodes show a strong dependence on lifetime of the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 6,645 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessAll words, across the recordResource Leveling Using Petrinet and Memetic ApproachK. Raja, S. KumananThe problem of scheduling activities dynamic for a project, within the available resources and adhering to precedence relationships is NP hard combinatorial. Traditional approaches and their extensions are limited in application for simultaneous scheduling of resources with leveling. Considering the need for improved modeling and scheduling techniques, this paper proposes the use of Petrinet based approach aided by memetic algorithm. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,085 accessesView PDFCite
