Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMapping UML Component Specifications to JEE ImplementationsJyhjong LinComponent-based Software Engineering (CbSE) has become a well-accepted approach for developing complex software systems due to its significant advantages on composition and reuse. In practice, however, its use still requires the conjunction of a component specification method that describes how system requirements are satisfied in terms of software components. Such a component specification is then implemented in a variety of … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 10 · 31 Oct 2007 · 6,478 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhy Do People Use Their Cars: A Case Study In MalaysiaAbdalla Nurdeen Kamba, Riza Atiq O.K. Rahmat, Amiruddin IsmailIn Malaysia, the rapid increase in the use of own transport prompted by inadequate public transport has resulted in increased traffic congestion, accidents, inadequate parking space and air pollution among other evils. This study sought to identify the factors preventing own transport users from shifting to public transport and to develop model shift from car to public transport in order … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 9,182 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCombined DWT-DCT Digital Image WatermarkingAli Al-HajThe proliferation of digitized media due to the rapid growth of networked multimedia systems, has created an urgent need for copyright enforcement technologies that can protect copyright ownership of multimedia objects. Digital image watermarking is one such technology that has been developed to protect digital images from illegal manipulations. In particular, digital image watermarking algorithms which are based on the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2007 · 18,200 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCardiovascular Effect of Capparis spinosa Aqueous Extract. Part VI: in vitro Vasorelaxant EffectN. A. Zeggwagh, J. B. Michel, M. EddouksThe aim of this study was to investigate the in vitro vasorelaxanteffect of Capparis spinosa aqueous extract (CSAE) at a dose of 10 mg mL-1. Aortic rings isolated from normal wistar rats were used. The addition of CSAE during the plateau phase of contraction, induced by noradrenaline and KCl, produced a rapid relaxation. Incubation of aortic ring with CSAE during … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,444 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPlasmid-mediated Detoxification of Mycotoxin Zearalenone in Pseudomonas Sp. ZEA-1Abdullah D. AltalhiThe Pseudomonas sp. Strain ZEA-1 was isolated from rhizosphere of corn plant by an enrichment technique showed capability of utilizing zearalenone as the sole source of carbon. The bacterium rapidly utilized zearalenone beyond 200 µg/ml and showed prolific growth in a minimal medium containing 100 µg/ml zearalenone source. The course of ZEA degradation as well as the formation of its … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 7,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractNumerical Solutions of the Multispecies Predator-Prey Model by Variational Iteration MethodKhaled BatihaThe main objective of the current work was to solve the multispecies predator-prey model. The techniques used here were called the variational iteration method (VIM) and the Adomian decomposition method (ADM). The advantage of this work is twofold. Firstly, the VIM reduces the computational work. Secondly, in comparison with existing techniques, the VIM is an improvement with regard to its … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApproximate Analytical Solutions For Time-Dependent Emden-Fowler-Type Equations By Variational Iteration MethodKhaled BatihaThe main objective of the current study was to solve the time-dependent Emden-Fowler-type equation with singular behavior. The technique used here was called the variational iteration method (VIM). The advantage of this work is twofold. Firstly, the VIM reduces the computational work. Secondly, in comparison with existing techniques, the VIM is an improvement with regard to its accuracy and rapid … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBreaking out: The Dynamics of Immigrant Owned BusinessesShahamak RezaeiAs far as integration policy in a Danish context is concerned a phenomenon have been observed during the last decade: Immigrant businesses are spreading rapidly in the country, dominating certain business lines in deprived inner city areas. According to registry and survey data, most immigrant businesses - and particularly those owned by immigrants from less developed countries in Asia, the … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,459 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInsertion of poly (ethylene glycol)-lipid reduces the liposome-encapsulated hemoglobininduced thrombocytopenic reactionVibhudutta Awasthi, Beth Goins, William T. PhillipsInteraction with platelets has been recognized as a concern in the development of liposome-encapsulated hemoglobin as an oxygen carrier. This reaction causes a significant drop in circulating platelets in a rapid and transient fashion. We studied the effect of lipid bilayer charge on the magnitude of drop in circulating platelets. We also investigated the effect of post-inserted PEG-lipid on this … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,377 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSensitization of Photohemolysis by a New Extraction from Flowers and Aerial Parts of Cichorium Pumilum Jacq: Effects of Inulin and Hydrogen PeroxideM-Ali H. Al-Akhras, Amr Amin, Karima Mohammad et al.Addition of inulin and hydrogen peroxide to new photosensitizers extracted from the flowers and aerial parts of the chicory (Cichorium Pumilum Jacq) have been investigated. Some of the isolated photosensitizers remain unidentified compounds. Chicory extracts are found to be dependent on light and temperature. Higher photohemolysis rate was noticed under the influence of light as compared to temperature. The effect … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,716 accessesView PDFCite
