Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHEY SHOULDN’T POST THAT! STUDENT PERCEPTION OF INAPPROPRIATE POSTS ON FACEBOOK REGARDING ALCOHOL CONSUMPTION AND THE IMPLICATIONS FOR PEER SOCIALIZATIONLoreen WolferMany students believe that drinking alcohol is part of the collegiate experience and showing that one consumes alcohol is an important part of establishing that one fits into this atmosphere. Facebook is one means in which college students present the appearance of social conformity in order to gain peer approval; yet, in accordance with Privacy Calculus Theory, students also need … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 2 · 18 Jul 2014 · 7,833 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECT OF REPLACING CORN AND SOYBEAN MEAL WITH BREWERS RICE AND DRIED DISTILLERS BREWERS YEAST ON PERFORMANCE OF GROWING-FINISHING PIGSOndieki Gekara, Talesha Dokes, Renita MarshallThe objective of this study was to determine the effect of replacing corn and Soybean Meal (SBM) with Brewers Rice (BR) and Dried Distillers Brewers Yeast (DDBY), respectively, on ADG, G:F, Apparent Total Tract Digestibility (ATTD), fecal DM output and fecal loss of N and P of growing-finishing pigs. Sixty four Yorkshire x Duroc x Hampshire crosses (BW = 73±5.7 … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 24 Apr 2014 · 7,196 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA COMBINED LOW LATENCY AND WEIGHTED FAIR QUEUING BASED SCHEDULING OF AN INPUT-QUEUED SWITCHK. Bommanna Raja, D. RaghupathikumarInput queuing has become dominant and popular building blocks for high speed crossbar switches with many ports and fast line rates because they require minimum speed-up of memory bandwidth. Input Queued switches with finite Virtual Output Queues guarantees QoS performance in terms of throughput and average delay. A switch performs two functions Queuing and Scheduling. Queue Management algorithm manages the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 8 · 25 Mar 2014 · 7,232 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN HETEROSIS AND GENETIC DISTANCES BASED ON SSR MARKERS IN HELIANTHUS ANNUUSA. V. Usatov, A. I. Klimenko, K. V. Azarin et al.Identifying the best inbred combinations for the development of commercial hybrid of sunflower remains the main challenge to sunflower breeders. In the present research the level of heterosis of F1 hybrids, genetic diversity of parental lines based on SSR markers, as well as its connection with specific combining ability of sunflower were studied. Ten sunflower elite inbred lines (3 restorer … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 3 · 7 Mar 2014 · 8,007 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEFFECTS OF MELANOCORTIN-4 RECEPTOR GENE ON GROWTH AND MEAT TRAITS IN PIGS RAISED IN RUSSIAA. Klimenko, A. Usatov, Lyubov Getmantseva et al.The Melanocortin-4 Receptor (MC4R), a G-protein coupled receptor, is implicated in mediating the effect of leptin on food intake and energy balance. A previous candidate gene study reported an association between an MC4R polymorphism (Asp298Asn) and growth and meat productive traits of pigs. The aim of this work was to determine frequencies of the MC4R/Taq I genotypes and alleles in … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 11 Feb 2014 · 7,611 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCONSTRAINT INFORMATIVE RULES FOR GENETIC ALGORITHM-BASED WEB PAGE RECOMMENDATION SYSTEMS. Prince Mary, E. BaburajTo predict the users navigation using web usage mining is the primary motto of the web page recommendation. Currently, researchers are trying to develop a web page recommendation using pattern mining technique. Here, we propose a technique for web page recommendation using genetic algorithm. It consists of three phases as data preparation, mining of informative rules and recommendation. The data … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 11 · 5 Oct 2013 · 6,672 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiet Modification to Reduce Fecal Excretion of Nitrogen and Phosphorus in Growing-Finishing PigsOndieki Gekara, Talesha Dokes, Renita MarshallAn experiment was conducted to determine whether brewers rice can replace all corn in diets for swine and reduce fecal excretion of Nitrogen (N) and Phosphorus (P) without compromising performance and carcass quality of growing-finishing pigs. Sixteen Yorkshire x Duroc x Hampshire crosses (BW = 77±2.5 kg) were randomly assigned to either corn/soybean meal (CSM; control) or brewers rice/soybean meal … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 3 Oct 2013 · 7,455 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFuzzy Inference System Based Power Factor Correction of Three Phase Diode Rectifier Using Field Programable Gate ArraySundar Rajan Giri Thulasiraman, Christober Asir RajanThis study describes a novel method in improving the input current total harmonic distortion as well as power factor of a three-phase diode rectifier circuit. In this method, three bidirectional switches comprising MOSFET and four diodes are used across the three-phase supply and load. In a three-phase rectifier only two diodes conduct at any given time. As a result, the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 9 · 24 Aug 2013 · 6,882 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSelection of Spectral Filters for Optical Demultiplexer Via Same Source Different Filters Testing TechniqueMohammad Syuhaimi Ab-Rahman, Hadiguna, Latifah Sarah Supian, Malik SulaimanThis study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of selected color filter film for demultiplexer construction where only signals with certain wavelengths are allowed to pass through the demultiplexer while the other signal that carrying different wavelengths are absorbed. Characterization testing and analysis is done based on recorded data. Demultiplexer components are characterized by the Same Source at Different Filters (SSDF) … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 9 May 2013 · 6,250 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMorphological Features of Rodoretto Valley Deep-Seated Gravitational Slope DeformationsMaria Gabriella Forno, Andrea Lingua, Stefano Lo Russo, Glenda TaddiaA new, detailed survey of the Rodoretto Valley (Western Alps, Italy) has been conducted resulting in the production of a new morphological and quaternary geological map of the area. The authors used the innovative Solid (True) Ortho-Photo (STOP) technology integrated with navigation sensors (Global Navigation Satellite System-GNSS/Inertial Measurement Unit-IMU). This state-of-the-art procedure has demonstrated several operational advantages during both the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 6 · 9 Feb 2013 · 7,035 accessesView PDFCite
