Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Efficient Algorithm for Capacitated Multifacility Location ProblemsChansiri Singhtaun, Peerayuth CharnsethikulIn this paper, a squared-Euclidean distance multifacility location problem with inseparable demands under balanced transportation constraints is analyzed. Using calculus to project the problem onto the space of allocation variables, the problem becomes minimizing concave quadratic integer programming problem. The algorithm based on extreme point ranking method combining with logical techniques is developed. The numerical experiments are randomly generated to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 31 Aug 2007 · 6,443 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Innovative Technique of Texture Classification and Comparison Based on Long Linear PatternsV. Vijaya Kumar, B. Eswara Reddy, U. S.N. Raju, K. Chandra SekharanThe present paper proposes a method of texture classification based on long linear patterns. Linear patterns of long size are bright features defined by morphological properties: linearity, connectivity, width and by a specific Gaussian-like profile whose curvature varies smoothly along the crest line. The most significant information of a texture often appears in the occurrence of grain components. That’s why … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 8 · 28 Aug 2007 · 6,726 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEfficient Physical Organization of R-Trees Using Node ClusteringF. Sagayaraj Francis, P. ThambiduraiR-Tree is a multidimensional indexing structure that forms basis for all the multidimensional indexing structures based on data partitioning. A number of attempts have been made in the past to improve the performance of R-Tree by manipulating the tree parameters and the data parameters. But hardly any attempt had been made to use external parameters such as disk parameters to … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 7 · 31 Jul 2007 · 6,628 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractForecasting Air Temperatures Using Time Series Models and Neural-based AlgorithmsMahmoud M. Smadi, Farouq S. MjalliRecently, neural network models have been popular and found useful for forecasting a wide variety of time series data in many disciplines. This is due to their favorable modeling properties of simplicity, fault and noise tolerance and their capability to adapt to process changes. Nevertheless, applications in climatology have been less widespread than other disciplines such as economics. In this … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,275 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCPI-1189 Protects against TNBS-induced Colitis in a Rodent ModelBeverley Greenwood-Van Meerveld, Karl TylerNitrone-related therapeutics (NRTs) represents a new class of molecules that may be effective in treating inflammatory conditions. The goal of this study was to examine the effect of CPI-1189 in a rat model of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Colonic inflammation was induced by an enema of trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS). Saline-enema treated rats served as controls. After 3 days colonic … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,176 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAFLPs in Warmblood Sporting Horses: Genetic Correlation with Height at the WithersV. Sanchez, C. Lemus, A. Inchaustegui et al.The Mexican army produces Warmblood horses for jumping proposes. However, breeding is based on phenotype and stallions are selected stepwise until the end of growth, representing a high care and maintenance cost. In this work using 64 selective primer combinations and AFLP technology we identified specific molecular markers related with height at the withers measurements of Warmblood horses. AFLPs generated … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,755 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProtection against Lipopolysaccharide-induced Death by An Anti-Interleukin-6 Monoclonal AntibodyBailin Liang, Debra Gardner, Don Griswold, Xiao-yu R. SongSepticemia is frequently associated with serious complications and high mortality despite recent advances in treatment with antibacterial agents. Infectious organisms or their soluble products initiate septic shock through a complex cytokine cascade. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS) induced excessive production of inflammatory cytokines is regarded as a model of septic shock. Experiments of LPS-induced excessive cytokine production were conducted in Balb/c mice for … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,861 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential of Agarose for Biosorption of Cu(II) In Aqueous SystemAnurag Pandey, Debabrata Bera, Anupam Shukla, Lalitagauri RayThe ability of agarose gel as an adsorbent for Cu(II) ions in aqueous solution was studied. The experiments were done as batch processes. Batch kinetics and isotherm studies were carried out under varying experimental conditions of contact time, Cu(II) ion concentration, adsorbent dose, temperature and pH. Adsorption equilibrium of agarose gel was reached within 4 h for agarose gel when … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,833 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Covers and Rainfall on Soil and Water Conservation Using a Tilting Flume ModelS. Compliew, L. Suwanchai, N. KrongwiengThe effect of stone and vegetative covers was evaluated for soil and water conservation in a waterway on salty soils in the Northeast of Thailand. Experiments were conducted on a hydraulic tilting flume under simulated unit flow (120 and 45 cm2s-1), rainfall (120 mm/hr) and slope (0, 1.2,1.4,1.6,1.8,2.0, 2.2, 2.4, 2.6, 2.8 and 3.0%) conditions. The depth of soil was … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,633 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInvestigation of An Acoustic Temperature Transducer and its Application for Heater Temperature MeasurementMohammad A.K. Alia, Tariq Al MograbiRecent developments in temperature measurement have encouraged researchers to develop low-cost, simple structure, computerized generic transducers for environmental monitoring and industrial process control. The research presents a computerized technique which allows to measure temperature according to the variation of acoustic velocity (frequency) in a closed waveguide. Signal conditioning and processing was carried out using labVIEW (G Language) VIs. In order … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,821 accessesView PDFCite
