Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAntibacterial and Antioxidant Activities of Typhonium Flagelliforme (Lodd.) Blume TuberSyam Mohan, Ahmad Bustamam Abdul, Siddig Ibrahim Abdel Wahab et al.Problem Statement: Multiple drug resistance in human pathogenic micro organisms has developed due to indiscriminate use of modern antimicrobial drugs generally used in the management of infectious diseases. This increases the importance of exploiting the natural sources instead modern drugs. Approach: The antibacterial and antioxidant activity of different extracts from of Typhonium flagelliforme (L.) Blume tuber (family: Araceae) commonly called … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2008 · 10,420 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDNA Sequence Optimization Based on Continuous Particle Swarm Optimization for Reliable DNA Computing and DNA NanotechnologyN. K. Khalid, Z. Ibrahim, T. B. Kurniawan et al.Problem statement: In DNA based computation and DNA nanotechnology, the design of good DNA sequences has turned out to be an essential problem and one of the most practical and important research topics. Basically, the DNA sequence design problem is a multi-objective problem and it can be evaluated using four objective functions, namely, Hmeasure, similarity, continuity and hairpin. Approach: There … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2008 · 7,046 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Digital Signature Scheme Based on Mandelbrot and Julia Fractal SetsMohammad Ahmad Alia, Azman Bin SamsudinThis paper describes a new cryptographic digital signature scheme based on Mandelbrot and Julia fractal sets. Having fractal based digital signature scheme is possible due to the strong connection between the Mandelbrot and Julia fractal sets. The link between the two fractal sets used for the conversion of the private key to the public key. Mandelbrot fractal function takes the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2007 · 6,962 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMeasuring the Costs of Production Based on Sizes of Farm Operation: A Study on Rice Farmers in Jessore District of BangladeshShaikh Moksadur Rahman, Jun TakedaThe quantity of rice production has increased regardless of the land operation size in recent years, but small and medium farmers still have a serious problem especially regarding the increasing cost involved in the production. As rice is the main crop, the condition of production, cost incurred in different inputs, purchasing nature of inputs and the source of production elements … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 7,289 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Hot Strip Rolling Force Prediction using a Bayesian Trained Artificial Neural Network and Analytical ModelsAbdelkrim Moussaoui, Yacine Selaimia, Hadj A. AbbassiThe authors discuss the combination of an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) with analytical models to improve the performance of the prediction model of finishing rolling force in hot strip rolling mill process. The suggested model was implemented using Bayesian Evidence based training algorithm. It was found that the Bayesian Evidence based approach provided a superior and smoother fit to the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,135 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMicrobial Population In Decompsing Legume Litter Of Differing QualityM. B. Oyun, F. C. Akharayi, F. C. AdetuyiThe influence of litter quality on microbial population during decomposition of fresh pruning of Acacia auriculiformis; Gliricidia sepium and Acacia mixed with Gliricidia (50 : 50) is reported. Acacia (soluble C, 46.6%; N, 3.9%; Phenolic, 2.3%) was rated as low quality litter while Gliricidia (soluble C, 45.2%; N, 4.8%; Phenolic, 2.3%) was rated as high quality litter. Acacia mixed with … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,653 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMultiple Antibiotic Resistances of Vibrio Isolates from Coastal and Brackish Water AreasS. Manjusha, G. B. Sarita, K. K. Elyas, M. ChandrasekaranAn experiment was designed to assess the occurrence of multiple antibiotic resistances in Vibrio spp. from different (brackish and marine) environments. Water samples from nine marine landing sites and two coastal inland aquaculture farms were screened for the Vibrio spp. and assessed their resistance to twenty-two different antibiotics, which are commonly encountered in the aquatic ecosystem. Tissue samples (shrimp, mussel … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,077 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConstruction of an Integrated Object Oriented System for Temporal GISSouheil Khaddaj, Abdul Adamu, Munir MoradThe development of temporal GIS systems capable of dealing with the evolution of geographical objects is still a challenging task. Although many successful GIS systems have been implemented, comparatively little has been done on how to determine and analyze the patterns of continuous changes of geographical objects. The aim of this paper is to construct a GIS system using an … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,727 accessesView PDFCite
