Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPERFORMANCE ANALYSIS OF HIGH EFFICIENCY LOW DENSITY PARITY-CHECK CODE DECODER FOR LOW POWER APPLICATIONSM. Revathy, R. SaravananIn this study, we propose a low power, high efficient Low Density Parity-Check Code (LDPC) Decoder Architecture for error detection and correction applications. LDPC codes have been adopted in latest wireless standards such as satellite and mobile communications since they possess superior error-detecting and correcting capabilities. As technology scales, memory devices become larger and more powerful and low power consumption … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 30 Jan 2014 · 6,882 accessesView PDFCite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiotransformation Using Recombinant Cmp Sialic Acid Synthetase and α-2, 6-Sialyltran Sferase: Enzymatic Synthesis of SialosidesUlrike Hubl, Cynthia Sun, Shuguang Zhang et al.In this research, we successfully expressed recombinant CMP-sialic Acid Synthetase (CSS) from Neisseria meningitides and 2,6-Sialyltransferase (SAT) from Photobacterium damsela in E. coli BL21(DE3) fermented at a scale of up to 8 litres using individual plasmids pIRL-1 and pIRL-4b, respectively. After cell lysis with BugBuster, enzyme levels of 2U and 22U per litre were produced for CSS and SAT, respectively. … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 25 Dec 2012 · 8,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariability of Hydraulic Conductivity Due to Multiple FactorsSanjit K. Deb, Manoj K. ShuklaSoil properties are greatly influenced by intrinsic factors of soil formation as well as extrinsic factors associated with land use and management and vary both in time and space. Intrinsic variability is caused by the pedogenesis and usually takes place at large time scales. The variability caused by extrinsic factors could take effect relatively quickly and could not be treated … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 5 · 13 Aug 2012 · 10,219 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDevelopment of Priority Oriented Scheduling Method to Increase the Reliability of Manufacturing SystemsSeyedehfarzaneh Nojabaei, Z. Leman, S. H. Tang, S. SulaimanScheduling occurs in every organization without considering the nature of its activities. In this regard, numerous scholars have attempted to schedule via divergent methods including classical scheduling, genetic algorithm, neural network and fuzzy logic and so on. Studies in manufacturing scheduling mostly deal with priority rules without any consideration of the system states. An appropriate scheduling leads to significant enhancement … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 9 · 31 Jul 2012 · 7,015 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBayesian Exploration of Multilocus Interactions on the Genome-Wide ScaleIvan Kozyryev, Jing ZhangProblem statement: Recent technological and scientific advances propelled the field of Genome-Wide Association Study (GWAS), which promises to be instrumental in linking many common complex diseases to their genetic origin. While so far such large-scale surveys have been moderately successful in identifying disease related genetic variants, much of disease heritability is still not accounted for by the discovered loci. There … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 2 Jul 2012 · 7,401 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Star Topology based Multicast Key Management AlgorithmK. Saravanan, T. PurusothamanProblem statement: Secure group communication is very important for many applications such as internet pay sites. It provides efficient delivery of identical data to only the customers in the group. In large and dynamic multicast groups, the group keys of members have to be changed frequently whenever the member leaves or joins. A common method is to apply a symmetric … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 22 Mar 2012 · 7,344 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApproaches to Learning in First Year University PhysicsRachel Wilson, Steve Georgakis, Manjula SharmaProblem statement: In recent decades, discipline specific ways of thinking and knowing have gained increased recognition in understanding learning. However, there has been little empirical research examining student approaches to learning within specific disciplines or, even more specifically, within different streams of study or in response to different curriculum within a discipline. Approach: The aim of this study was to … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 2 · 25 Feb 2012 · 9,211 accessesView PDFCite
