Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Complexity Performance Effective Task Scheduling Algorithm for Heterogeneous Computing EnvironmentsE. Ilavarasan, P. ThambiduraiA heterogeneous computing environment is a suite of heterogeneous processors interconnected by high-speed networks, thereby promising high speed processing of computationally intensive applications with diverse computing needs. Scheduling of an application modeled by Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) is a key issue when aiming at high performance in this kind of environment. The problem is generally addressed in terms of task … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2007 · 9,668 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeterministic Timed AFA: A New Class of Timed Alternating Finite AutomataAbdelaziz Fellah, Zachary Friggstad, Soufiane NoureddineTimed Alternating Finite Automata (TAFA), a natural generalization of Timed Finite Automata (TFA), are synchronous and powerful models for real-time computations. They become an effective and expressive model for developing embedded systems with real-time constraint computations which are required in many applications. We introduce Deterministic Timed Alternating Finite Automata (DTAFA), a new class of timed alternating finite automata, extended with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 7,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAssociation of DNA Polymorphism at the Apolipoprotein B-100 Gene Locus with Plasma Lipid Concentration and Coronary Artery Disease among North IndiansVivek Pratap Singh, V. Ramesh, Sonal Somvanshi et al.The aim of this study was to investigate the association between apolipoprotein B gene polymorphisms and coronary artery disease and lipid levels in north Indians. Two hundred patients of angiographically proven atherosclerotic CAD and two hundred age and sex matched control subjects were included in the study. Serum lipids including cholesterol, triglycerides, HDL, LDL, VLDL and ApoB were analyzed. PCR … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,896 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 abstractMorpho-physiological Differences of the Spermatheca of Attini Ants (Hymenoptera: Myrmicinae)Gabriela Ortiz, Maria Izabel Camargo-MathiasThe insect's spermatheca store the spermatozoa from the time of copulation until the fertilization of the eggs and consists of a sac, usually associated to glands. The ant species Atta laevigata, Atta sexdens sexdens, Atta sexdens piriventris, Acromyrmex coronatus and Cyphomyrmex muelleri are considered pests, as they cause economics losses to several crops. The spermatheca of these species were examined … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 7,588 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLQ-Moments: Application to the Log-Normal distributionAni Shabri, Abdul A. JemainMudolkar and Hutson (1998) extended L-moments to new moment like entitles called LQmoments (LQMOM). The LQMOM are constructed by using functional defining the quick estimators, where the parameters of quick estimator take the values p = 0, α = 1 for the median, p = 1/4, α = 1/4 for the trimean and p = 0.3, α = 1/3 for … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 7,000 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMetabolic Abnormalities Associated with the Use of Protease Inhibitors and Non-nucleoside Reverse Transcriptase InhibitorsMadhu N. Rao, Grace A. Lee, Carl GrunfeldThe use of protease inhibitors and non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors for the treatment of HIV infection and AIDS has been associated with multiple abnormalities in glucose and lipid metabolism. Specifically, these abnormalities include insulin resistance, increased triglycerides and increased LDL cholesterol levels. The metabolic disturbances are due to a combination of factors, including the direct effect of medications, restoration to … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2006 · 6,941 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOpiates Upregulate Adhesion Molecule Expression in Brain MicroVascular Endothelial Cells (BMVEC): Implications for Altered Blood Brain Barrier (BBB) PermeabilityMadhavan P.N. Nair, Supriya D. Mahajan, Jessica L. ReynoldsThe blood-brain barrier (BBB) is an intricate cellular system composed of vascular endothelial cells and perivascular astrocytes that restrict the passage of immunocompetent cells into the central nervous system (CNS). Expression of the adhesion molecules, intercellular adhesion molecule 1 (ICAM-1) and vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) on brain microvascular endothelial cells (BMVEC) and their interaction with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV-1) … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,614 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Changing Pathology of NeuroAIDS Associated with Drug Abuse in the Era of HAARTE Bell Jeanne, C. Anthony Iain, Simmonds PeterCompliance with highly active antiretroviral therapy (HAART) arrests HIV induced immune collapse and reduces the prevalence of severe central nervous system (CNS) complications, including HIV associated dementia and encephalitis. However minor cognitive disorders remain common and recent autopsy studies have demonstrated the presence of subtle neuropathological abnormalities in HAART treated individuals, including persistent neuroinflammation and enhanced deposition in the brain … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 6,874 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBioceramics for Tissue Engineering Applications-A ReviewSunho Oh, Namsik Oh, Mark Appleford, Joo L. OngThree dimensional (3-D) scaffolds have been explored in an attempt to persuade the body to heal or repair tissues that do not do so spontaneously. Considerable advances in tissue engineering and regeneration have been accomplished over the last decade. However, the material and 3-D scaffolds ideal for optimal regeneration of missing or lost tissues has not been identified.
