Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsSERVER FAILURES ENABLED JAVASPACES SERVICEMutasem K. Alsmadi, Usama A. Badawi, Hatem M. MoharramJavaSpaces service is a Distributed Shared Memory (DSM) implementation. It has been introduced by Sun Microsystems as a service of the Jini system. Currently, JavaSpaces support client side fault tolerance. It enables both transaction and mobile coordination mechanisms for such purpose. The application failures could be detected and recovered. However, server side failures may occur during the application runtime. Therefore, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 21 Dec 2013 · 6,643 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEast Kolkata Wetland: A Multifunctional Niche of International ImportanceI. Mukherjee, S. Ray Chaudhuri, D. Ghosh, A. R. ThakurProblem statement: In the megacity Kolkata, the need for space to accomodate the ever increasing population is increasing day by day. As a result the encoarchment of the large wetland on the eastern frindge of the city is increasing and so is the threat of its loosing the status of Ramsar Status. Approach: Proper documentation of the existing traditional practice … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 2 · 31 Jul 2012 · 9,082 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBiosurfactan Production by Bacillus sp. Isolated from Petroleum Contaminated Soils of Sirri IslandM. Ghayyomi Jazeh, F. Forghani, Deog-Hwan OhProblem statement: Biosurfactants are active surface components produced by some bacteria and fungi. These molecules reduce surface and interfacial tension in aqueous solutions and hydrocarbon mixtures. The most important application of biosurfactants is in oil industry to enhance oil quality and facilitate oil extraction. The aim of this study was to isolate biosurfactant producing bacteria and optimize the conditions like … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 13 Jan 2012 · 8,552 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsRemediation Technologies for Marine Oil Spills: A Critical Review and Comparative AnalysisD. Dave, A.E. GhalyProblem statement: Anthropogenic activities pollute the oceans with oil through land run off, vessels accidents, periodic tanker discharges and bilge discharges. Oil spills are environmental disasters that impact human, plants and wild life including birds, fish and mammals. Approach: In this study, the International Guidelines for Preventing Oils Spills and Response to Disasters were reviewed and the characteristics of oil … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 2 Nov 2011 · 25,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsLab-on-Chip Methodology in the Energy Industry: Wettability Patterns and Their Impact on Fluid Displacement in Oil Reservoir ModelsMarc H. Schneider, Patrick TabelingProblem statement: We present an experimental study of multiphase transport in porous media with controlled wettability patterns based on lab-on-chip methodology. Approach: Fractional, or patterned, wettability is known to have an enormous impact in the petroleum industry on oil recovery and continuous efforts are being made to assess the role of such conditions. Results: Thus far, due to the absence … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 20 Aug 2011 · 7,880 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsBheri-A Unique Example of Biological Complex SystemIndranil Mukherjee, Pranami Bhaumik, Madhusmita Mishra et al.Problem statement: This study is a unique attempt to characterize Bheri (shallow flat bottom waste water fed fishery) as a complex biological system. Approach: The characterization was done both at the qualitative and the quantitative levels. The diverse microbial community and the associated emergent behaviors resulting in integrated resource recovery by the Bheris were analyzed under the lens of complexity … …OnLine Journal of Biological Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,770 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsCancer Chemotherapy and Immune RegulationJohn Barrett, Katarina Le BlancProblem statement: Chemotherapeutic drugs have been used to treat malignancy for over 50 years, but the potential of cytotoxic agents to suppress immunity and interfere with Immunosurveillance (IS) of cancer has been largely ignored. Assuming that the immune control of the cancer had a priori already failed, the effect was not considered to have a major impact on treatment outcome. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2009 · 40,663 accessesView PDFCite
