Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAnalysis of the Differential Gene Expression, by the DD-RTPCR Technique, Of Workers Atta sexdens rubropilosa Mandibular Glands (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)Lorena Favaro Pavon, Maria Izabel Camargo Mathias, Flávio Meirelles, Maurício Bacci JúniorThe DD-RTPCR technique is becoming more efficient nowadays to isolate and characterize genes differentially expressed among cells, tissues or individuals, being used here, for the first time in the study of mandibular glands of minina and media workers and soldiers of the ant species Atta sexdens rubropilosa. The expression profile of bands (transcripts), obtained in the present study, permitted the … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2006 · 7,841 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesigning Omni-Directional Mobile Robot with Mecanum WheelJefri Efendi Mohd Salih, Mohamed Rizon, Sazali Yaacob et al.This study presents the processes undertaken in the design and development of an intelligent omni-directional mobile robot using four custom-made mecanum wheels. The mecanum wheel developed consists of nine rollers made from delrin. All mecanum wheels are independently powered using four units of precisian gear DC motors and the wheel/motor assemblies were mounted directly to the robot chassis made using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 5 · 31 May 2006 · 9,593 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Software Quality Model for Evaluating COTS ComponentsAdnan Rawashdeh, Bassem MatalkahStudies show that COTS-based (Commercial off the shelf) systems that are being built recently are exceeding 40% of the total developed software systems. Therefore, a model that ensures quality characteristics of such systems becomes a necessity. Among the most critical processes in COTS-based systems are the evaluation and selection of the COTS components. There are several existing quality models used … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2006 · 11,421 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn Some Stability Results for Fixed Point Iteration ProcedureM. O. Olatinwo, O. O. Owojori, C. O. ImoruIn this study, we establish that both the Mann and Ishikawa iteration processes are T-stable for the mappings T satisfying a more general contractive definition than that of Osilike[1] . The results obtained generalize some of the recent results of Osilike[1] which are themselves generalizations and extensions of some of the results of Harder and Hicks[2] and Rhoades[3,4]. …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,040 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPolymyositis Initiation Involving Amlodipine BesylateR. M. Golding, L. G.F. Giles, E. M. SokoyaBased on extensive blood pressure data and results from a scientific model of the analysis of the rate processes involved in polymyositis the evidence suggests that the polymyositis in a particular patient was initiated by taking the drug amlodipine besylate (norvasc). The method of our analysis should serve as a foundation in handling other drug related interactions. …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 6,982 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractQualitative Assessments of the Software Architectures of Configuration Management SystemsAbhay Kothari, A. K. Ramani, P. K. ChandeThe Configuration Management (CM) is a very important area of concentration in software development and maintenance processes. Quality parameters for Configuration Management Tools’ architectural designs require rigorous identification and measurement. Two methods for quantitative assessment of quality parameters of the software architectures are proposed. These methods are based upon modularization properties, like, cohesion type, coupling type, module complexity, module size … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 6,812 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation and Beneficiation of Feldspar from Arkosic Sandstone in South Jordan for Application in the Ceramic IndustryMousa GougazehThe main purpose of the present study was to investigate the beneficiation and upgrading processes of a Jordanian feldspar ores to be finally implemented in the ceramic industry. The experimental work was conducted to evaluate the role of particle size distribution, chemical composition, mineral content and the magnetic impurities (Fe2O3 +TiO2 contents). The beneficiation of the 500-45 μm fractions, which … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2006 · 6,981 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Role of Information Technology in Building up Knowledge Economy Producting and using Information in Libraries and Information CentersDr I. Mohssin, NedaL AL-AhmadThe study reveals the relation between information production processes and building up knowledge economy and clarifies the role of libraries and Information Technology in producing information for the purpose of using it in bulking up knowledge economy. …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,004 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractInverse Correlations for Multiple Time Series and Gaussian Random Fields and Measures of Their Linear DeterminismR.J. Bhansali, L. IppolitiFor a discrete-time vector linear stationary process, {X(t)}, admitting forward and backward autoregressive representations, the variance matrix of an optimal linear interpolator of X(t), based on a knowledge of {X(t-j), j≠0}, is known to be given by Ri(0)-1 where Ri(0) denotes the inverse variance of the process. Let A=Is-1Ri(0)ˉ1R(0)ˉ1, where R(0) denotes the variance matrix of {X(t)} and Is an … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,424 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Application of Electrochemical Impedance Techniques in Analyzing the AC Response of Some Two-electron Transfer Dye SystemsFarouk RashwanThe Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopic techniques (EIS) were used to investigate the behavior of some dye compounds (quinoid systems) characterized with 2e-transfer processes. For this purpose, Alizarin Red S (ARS), Alizarin Cyanine (AC), Alizarin Viridin (AV) and carminic acid were chosen for the measurements. The EIS experiments were performed using a small AC amplitude (10 mV p-p) in addition to a … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,780 accessesView PDFCite
