Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffects of Agricultural Extension Workers’ Perceptions of Off-the-Job Training and On-the-Job Training to the Development of Their SkillsMohammad Jiaul Hoque, Koichi UsamiThis study was conducted to identify the contributing perceptions of Agricultural Extension Workers (AEWs) regarding off-the-job training and on-the-job training (OJT) for developing their extension skills. Data on AEWs’ skill levels on selected four extension skill areas, their perceptions of Off-JT and OJT were collected from 90 AEWs using structured questionnaires. AEWs’ skill levels on four extension skill areas ranged … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2007 · 8,176 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBeta-2-Microglobulin in Autism Spectrum DisordersPaula Goines, Joseph Schauer, Luke Heuer et al.Autism spectrum disorders (ASD) are heterogeneous neurodevelopmental diseases of unknown etiology. There are no biological markers for ASD and current diagnosis is based on behavioral criteria. Recent data has shown that MHC I, a compound involved in adaptive immune function, is also involved in neurodevelopment, synaptic plasticity and behavior. It has been suggested that altered MHC I expression could play … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 7,565 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinite Element Analysis of Plasticity- Induced Fatigue Crack Closure with Singular ElementR. Rahgozar, H. Saffari, R. TabatabaeiDeveloping a new method is presented to compute crack opening values in planar geometries using the crack surface nodal force distribution under minimum loading as determined from finite element analyses (FEM). In this technique, two-dimensional elastic-perfectly plastic finite element analyses of middle-crack tension (MT) geometry is conducted to study fatigue crack closure and to calculate the crack opening values under … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 6,855 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPerformance Monitoring of Energy Flow in the Power Transmission and Distribution System Using Grid ComputingC. Senthamarai, A. Krishnan, R. HemalathaGrid Computing is a promising infrastructure and technology that involves the integrated and collaborative use of Computers, networks, databases and scientific instruments owned and managed by multiple organizations. In this context our research primarily aims at developing an application framework for monitoring the Performance of Power Transmission and Distribution System using Grid Computing. Power Transmission and Distribution System of Electrical … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2007 · 6,589 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComputer Aided Transient Stability AnalysisNihad M. Al-Rawi, Afaneen Anwar, Ahmed M. Abdul-MajeedA program for handling and improving the transient stability of the Iraqi Super Grid electrical network was developed. The idea was demonstrated by applying it to the outages of the main generating units. The methodology was built upon a state of increasing power transfer through the healthy portion of network during disturbances. There were three parts concerned; the first part … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 6,946 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAdapting the LMF Temporal Splining Procedure From Serial to MPI/Linux ClustersSajia Akhter, Ipshita Sarkar, Kazi G. Rabbany et al.Remote Sensing (RS) provides images over large areas such as provincial or country level. During the last 20 years, it plays a vital role for developing many complex applications. However, RS image includes data noises due to influence of haze or cloud especially in the rainy season. It is thus necessary to remove the noise to recover the real ground … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,467 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCurrent Approaches for the Prevention of Surgical Site InfectionsSander Florman, Ronald Lee NicholsSurgical site infections (SSIs) are the most common type of nosocomial infection among surgical patients and are commonly caused by the patients’ own microbial flora. The prevalence of SSI is a major concern because of the associated increase in the incidence of morbidity and mortality, length of hospitalization and cost of care for postoperative patients. Key factors that determine whether … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,828 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of a DNA Vaccine for Immunocontraceptive Potential Against Zona Pellucida Glycoproteins in CattleC.A. Foley, S.M. Boyle, R.E. Pearson, F.C. GwazdauskasHolstein cows were administered zona pellucida (ZP) DNA vaccine and used to determine the potential of recombinant rabbit ZP glycoproteins (rZP) as immunocontraceptive antigens. Zona pellucida proteins were purified and quantified. Cows were assigned to one of four treatment groups in which plasmids encoding rabbit ZP proteins were administered, i.d., using a gene gun (ZP55, n=2; ZP75, n=2; Hep55, n=2; … …American Journal of Animal and Veterinary Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 6,890 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDeterministic Timed AFA: A New Class of Timed Alternating Finite AutomataAbdelaziz Fellah, Zachary Friggstad, Soufiane NoureddineTimed Alternating Finite Automata (TAFA), a natural generalization of Timed Finite Automata (TFA), are synchronous and powerful models for real-time computations. They become an effective and expressive model for developing embedded systems with real-time constraint computations which are required in many applications. We introduce Deterministic Timed Alternating Finite Automata (DTAFA), a new class of timed alternating finite automata, extended with … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 7,501 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractProbabilistic Artificial Neural Network For Recognizing the Arabic Hand Written CharactersKhalaf khatatneh, Ibrahiem M.M. El Emary, Basem Al-RifaiThe objective of this study was to present a new technique assists in developing a recognition system for handling the Arabic Hand Written text. The proposed system is called Arabic Hand Written Optical Character Recognition (AHOCR). AHOCR was concerned with recognition of hand written Alphanumeric Arabic characters. In the present work, extracted characters are represented by using geometric moment invariant … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,915 accessesView PDFCite
