Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Comparative Analysis of Task Scheduling Algorithms of Virtual Machines in Cloud EnvironmentSaleh Atiewi, Salman Yussof, Mohd EzaneeCloud computing is an interesting and beneficial area in modern distributed computing. It enables millions of users to use the offered services through their own devices or terminals. Cloud computing offers an environment with low cost, ease of use and low power consumption by utilizing server virtualization in its offered services (e.g., Infrastructure as a Service). The pool of Virtual … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 6 · 18 Sep 2015 · 7,642 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA DC-DC Circuit Using Boost Converter for Low Voltage Energy Harvesting ApplicationNurul Arfah Che Mustapha, A.H.M. Zahirul Alam, Sheroz Khan, Amelia Wong AzmanA DC-DC step-up voltage converter is designed to convert a very low voltage supply, 35 mV such as from the thermal energy source from body heat. The converter can generate an output voltage up to 210 mV, approximately six imes its initial input voltage over a frequency of 36 GHz. The effect of switching transistors, inductor current, rise and fall … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 9 Jun 2015 · 6,980 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeasibility Study on Solar Power Plant Utility Grid under Malaysia Feed-in TariffM. Pauzi M. Kassim, Karam M. Al-Obaidi, M. Arkam C. Munaaim, Abd. Mokhti SallehIn Perlis, Northern Malaysia, a solar power plant with an energy capacity of 5 MWp began selling energy to Tenaga Nasional Berhad in January 2013. Upon obtaining Feed-in Tariff approval from the Sustainable Energy Department Authority of Malaysia, the power plant will produce energy with a Feed-in Tariff of RM 0.874 for every kWh for 21 years according to the … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 27 May 2015 · 8,989 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLaser-Induced Breakdown and Detonation in Particle-Laden SystemsKonstantin VolkovSimulation of the interaction of a laser pulse with gas-droplet and gas-particle mixtures plays an important role in environmental and engineering applications. The injection of liquid droplets or metal particle causes optical breakdown on the individual droplet or particle and leads to a drop of the detonation minimum pulse energy of the mixture. Mathematical models of various stages of the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 4 Mar 2015 · 7,348 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSIGNED GRAPH APPROACH IN ADAPTIVE TRANSMISSION POWER TO ENHANCE THE LIFETIME OF WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORKSA. Babu Karuppiah, S. RajaramA Wireless Sensor Network (WSN) comprises a collection of sensor nodes networked for applications like surveillance, battlefield, monitoring of habitat. Nodes in a WSN are usually highly energy-constrained and expected to operate for long periods from limited on-board energy reserves. When a node transmits data to a destination node the data is overheard by the nodes that are in the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 8 · 13 May 2014 · 6,729 accessesView PDFCite
