Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCoupling Routing Algorithm and Data Encoding for Low Power Networks on ChipMaurizio Palesi, Davide Patti, Giuseppe Ascia et al.The routing algorithm used in a Network-on-Chip (NoC) has a strong impact on both the functional and non functional indices of the overall system. Traditionally, routing algorithms have been designed considering performance and cost as the main objectives. In this study we focus on two important non functional metrics, namely, power dissipation and energy consumption. We propose a selection policy … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 4 May 2015 · 6,928 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBuilding Information Modeling for Indoor Environmental Performance AnalysisYaik-Wah LimThere are increasing numbers of Building Information Modeling (BIM) software available nowadays which change the working methods in Architecture, Engineering and Construction (AEC) industry. From the stages of building design development to post-occupancy management, BIM plays an essential role in collaboration among multi-discipline professions, time and cost saving, fabrication and construction as well as facilities management. With the arising concern … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 2 · 29 Apr 2015 · 7,992 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTen Bioinformatics Tools for Single Nucleotide Polymorphisms DetectionMahin Ghorbani, Hamed KarimiSingle Nucleotide Polymorphisms (SNPs) as unique genetic variations are widely used as biomarkers for drug designing and development for individualized therapy. SNP genotyping techniques such as SBE with MS detection, SBE with fluorescence intensity detection, The FP-TDI, Pyrosequencing and The TaqMan 5’ nuclease assay are low-speed, time consuming and very expensive. To overcome such disadvantages, bioinformatics tools are emerged as … …Current Research in Bioinformatics, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 10 Apr 2015 · 17,728 accessesView PDFCite
