Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluating the Strengths and Weaknesses of Mining Audit Data for Automated Models for Intrusion Detection in Tcpdump and Basic Security Module DataG. Mohammed Nazer, A. Arul Lawrence SelvakumarProblem statement: Intrusion Detection System (IDS) have become an important component of infrastructure protection mechanism to secure the current and emerging networks, its services and applications by detecting, alerting and taking necessary actions against the malicious activities. The network size, technology diversities and security policies make networks more challenging and hence there is a requirement for IDS which should be … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 10 · 25 Aug 2012 · 7,126 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWhat is Xenohormesis?Joseph A. Baur, David A. SinclairPolyphenols such as resveratrol and quercetin, which are produced by stressed plants, activate sirtuin enzymes and extend the lifespan of fungi and animals, ostensibly by mimicking the beneficial effects of caloric restriction. This observation raises an interesting question: Why should foreign molecules that are non-nutritive and seemingly unrelated to any endogenous molecule modulate the same biochemical pathways that mediate the … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 10,386 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSuppression of Basal and Cytokine Induced Expression of MHC, ICAM 1 and B7 Markers on Mouse Lung Epithelial Cells Exposed to Diesel Exhaust ParticlesRajiv K. Saxena, Wanda Williams, M. Ian GilmourDiesel exhaust particles (DEP) constitute a significant component of airborne particulates in urban environment. Exposure to DEP is known to enhance susceptibility to viral and bacterial infections. We hypothesized that DEP could partially exert its effect on disease susceptibility by interfering with antigen presentation required for the generation of protective adaptive immune responses. MHC class I and class II molecules, … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2007 · 6,607 accessesView PDFCite
Research NotesOpen accessIn the abstractOvarian Follicular Dynamics in Caqueteño Creole Cattle Breed at the Colombian Amazon PiedmontLópez-Rojas Robinson, Celis-Parra Gustavo, Tovar-Claros Gilberto et al.Caqueteño creole cattle breed is part of the eight Colombian creole cattle breeds. These breeds are characterized by having great adaptive potential to the environmental conditions in which they are found and allowing them greater productive efficiency. Caqueteño creole cattle is a breed in danger of extinction according to parameters referenced by FAO, since it is a population of cattle … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 2 · 3 May 2019 · 8,508 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdvanced Manufacturing for Novel Materials in Industrial Design ApplicationsFrancesco Tamburrino, Antonio Apicella, Raffaella Aversa, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuThe research presented starts with a focus on Smart Materials, or rather materials with properties that react to external stimuli (temperature, electric or magnetic field, pH or mechanical stress, for example) related to the environmental changes, modifying one or some of their own properties (mechanical, electrical, appearance, etc.). Afterward, one category of Smart Materials, Shape Memory Alloys (SMAs), has been … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 30 May 2018 · 8,535 accessesView PDFCite
Literature ReviewOpen accessIn the abstractImpact of Building Function on Thermal Comfort: A Review PaperMamdooh S. AlwetaishiOne of the most problems for achieving thermal comfort in buildings is disregarding the impact of different types of building use. They are differ depending on the activity style they perform inside. In residential buildings, for instance, variations in indoor temperature is more acceptable than the case in hotels or hospitals. This review is leading to seek a solution for … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 2 Nov 2016 · 9,913 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAIR POLLUTION AND CLIMATE CHANGE IN LAGOS, NIGERIA: NEEDS FOR PROACTIVE APPROACHES TO RISK MANAGEMENT AND ADAPTATIONAkinola A. Komolafe, Suleiman Abdul-Azeez Adegboyega, Adeleye Y.B. Anifowose et al.The significance of air pollution as one of the contemporary issues and accelerating factors that propel climate change in both developed and developing countries cannot be overemphasized. The problem of air pollution has seemingly become intractable with the incessant failure of both global and local environmental policies purportedly emplaced to address its devastating trend, particularly in growing megacities of the … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 12 Jul 2014 · 10,232 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFluctuation of Brain Tissue Oxygen Partial Pressure: A Biochemical Landmark in the Arctic Ground Squirrel's Spontaneous ArousalYi Long Ma, Shu Fen Wu, Lawrence K. DuffyHibernation in the Arctic ground Squirrel (AGS) is a regulated, adaptive response to arctic environmental conditions. Problem statement: Regional brain Blood Flow (rCBF) has been observed to increase dramatically during arousal in hibernators. However, the real time dynamic change in PtO2 during arousal has not been studied, we hypothesized that PtO2 is Interdependent of Tbrain and a key component in … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 1 Feb 2012 · 7,601 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractClimate Change and its Implications to National SecurityMamunur Rashid, Joy Jacqueline Pereir, Rawshan Ara Begum et al.Problem statement: Climate change is increasingly one of the most serious national security threats which will have significant impacts on natural and coastal resources, ecosystem, human health and settlements, thereby affecting human wellbeing. At the same time, it is likely to influence of large scale human migration, economic and social depression over scarce natural resources and political systems necessary involve … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 26 May 2011 · 8,071 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Approach for 3D Range Image Segmentation using Gradient MethodDina A. Hafiz, Walaa M. Sheta, Sahar Bayoumi, Bayumy A.B. YoussefProblem statement: Segmentation of 3D range images is widely used in computer vision as an essential pre-processing step before the methods of high-level vision can be applied. Segmentation aims to study and recognize the features of range image such as 3D edges, connected surfaces and smooth regions. Approach: This study presents new improvements in segmentation of terrestrial 3D range images … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 4 · 4 Apr 2011 · 19,592 accessesView PDFCite
