Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Monte Carlo Algorithm Using Antithetic Variate and Brownian Bridge Techniques for Pricing the Barrier Options with Rebate PaymentsHasan AlzubaidiThe down-and-out call barrier option with rebate payment on dividend-paying stock is simulated using a new version of the Monte Carlo algorithm. The standard Monte Carlo method for simulating such an option suffers from two sources of errors: Hitting time error inherent from time stepping and the Monte Carlo statistical error. We present a modified version of Monte Carlo method … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 12, Issue 1 · 22 Feb 2016 · 8,259 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASYNCHRONOUS TIME ENCODER BASED QUASI-STATIC MODELLING FOR HUMAN AREA NETWORK IN VANETR. Vimal Karthick, G. S. Raj, R. Srinivasan et al.Power constraints play a key role in designing Human Area Networks (HANs) for bio authentication vehicle based on driver's identity. To alleviate the power constraints, we advocate a design that uses an asynchronous time encoding mechanisms for representing bio authentication information and the skin surface as the communication channel. Time encoding does not require a clock while allows perfect signal … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 11 · 20 Dec 2014 · 8,060 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparison of Isoflurane and Sevoflurane Anesthesia in Holstein Calves for Placement of Portal and Jugular Vein CannulasGlen Sellers, Hui-Chu Lin, Manuel Felipe Chamorro, Paul Harold WalzIsoflurane and sevoflurane are the two most commonly used inhalation anesthetics in veterinary medicine today. This study compared the anesthetic effects between isoflurane and sevoflurane in 17 calves undergoing surgery for placement of portal and jugular vein cannulas. Using a randomized control trial, calves were assigned to receive sevoflurane or isoflurane. Anesthesia was induced with xylazine and ketamine then maintained … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 2 Jan 2013 · 7,903 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVideo Streaming in Peer-to-Peer Networks Using Network Coding Renders Efficient Video Cassette Recorder OperationsR. Arockia Xavier Annie, K. V. Pradeepthi, P. YogeshProblem statement: Major technological development in recent years has led to the usage of shared streaming solutions by Peer-to-Peer (P2P) Video-on-Demand (VoD) systems in the Internet. Video streaming in P2P network systems has ample amount of loss of video packets due to network disabilities such as congestion, intrusion, connectivity problems, excessive network collisions etc. Adding onto the video streaming problems, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 24 Aug 2012 · 6,736 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReal-Time Volume Shadow using Visible-Non Visible AlgorithmHoshang Kolivand, Mohd Shahrizal Sunar, Azam Amirshakarami, Zhila RanjbariProblem statement: Shadows are most important effect to make realistic games and visually appealing images, but they are poor in frame per second. Silhouette detection is most important phases to create real-time shadow. Approach: Present study describes a real-time shadow generated with volume shadow algorithm using Visible-Non Visible algorithm (VNV) in virtual environment illuminated by a movable light source to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 7 · 28 Jun 2011 · 6,988 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSorting N-Elements Using Natural Order: A New Adaptive Sorting ApproachShamim Akhter, M. Tanveer HasanProblem statement: Researchers focused their attention on optimally adaptive sorting algorithm and illustrated a need to develop tools for constructing adaptive algorithms for large classes of measures. In adaptive sorting algorithm the run time for n input data smoothly varies from O(n) to O(nlogn), with respect to several measures of disorder. Questions were raised whether any approach or technique would … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 7,722 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntermittent Aeration in Biological Treatment of WastewaterH. Doan, A. LohiProblem statement: E-coating process is widely used to provide a protective coating layer on metal parts in the automotive and metal finishing industry. The wastewater from the coating process contains organic compounds that are used in the cleaning, pretreatment and coating steps. Organic pollutants can be removed biologically. In the aerobic biological treatment, water aeration accounts for a significant portion … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2009 · 8,131 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Study of BERT Based Architectures for Multi Task News Classification and Threat DetectionA. Mustain Billah, Sani M IsaWe present a comparative analysis of single-task and multi-task BERT-based models for Indonesian news classification across two objectives: category prediction (five classes) and threat detection (binary). Using 8,951 annotated news titles, single-task baselines achieved weighted F1 scores of 0.84±0.01 (category) and 0.87±0.00 (threat). Multi-task hybrids integrating CNN, LSTM, and Bi-LSTM layers performed comparably overall and improved minority class threat detection, … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 22, Issue 3 · 25 Mar 2026 · 1,124 accessesView PDF Cite

EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractIs Rerum® the New Coley's Vaccine?Marco RuggieroColey's Vaccine and Cancer Immunotherapy Dr. William B. Coley is credited for having been the first to translate the observation of an association between bacterial infections, high fever and cancer remission into a successful cancer treatment. However, it is worth noting that such an association dates back to at least one century before Coley's times; as Wiemann and Starnes from … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 31 May 2017 · 12,281 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDifferential Gene Expression of Peroxide Resistant Protein (AhpC) in Planktonic and Biofilm State of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli CellsOmar Sadik Shalal, Ani-Simona SevastreThe gastrointestinal tract seems to be the primary reservoir of Uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC) in humans. UPEC strains harbor the Urinary Tract (UT) and cause Urinary Tract Infections (UTI) which might represent a serious threat to human life. To counteract with the damage caused by the Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS), bacterial strains produce various enzymes and proteins like Alkyl hydroperoxide … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 19, Issue 3 · 13 Oct 2023 · 5,324 accessesView PDF Cite
