Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFinancial Assessment of a new Soil Heating Technology for Off-season Asparagus ProductionA. Luce, K. Mattas, I. Tzouramani et al.The financial effectiveness of a soil heating system placed under the crowns in each raised bed (UCR) of Asparagus plants (Asparagus officinalis L.) was evaluated and then compared with a traditional greenhouse production system (TPS), a plastic greenhouse without any heating system, in northern Greece. Several appraisal approaches, such as net present value, net present value adjusted for inflation and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2006 · 7,868 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractE-Learning under WebCTZ. A. Al-Khanjari, N. S. Kutti, H. A. RamadhanWith the introduction of Web-Based Instruction (WBI) the traditional classroom-based higher education could be made more effective form of instruction. But the studies have shown the negative results[1]. On the other hand the distance education has derived the direct benefit of WBI through extending classroom instruction in online to reach every remote student. However researchers have identified reasons for the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,322 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Proposed Adaptable Quality Model for Software Quality AssuranceSouheil Khaddaj, Gerard HorganMany of the early quality models have followed a hierarchical approach in which a set of factors that affect quality are defined, with little scope for expansion. More recent models have been developed that follow a 'Define your own' approach with locally tailored factors. The aim of this study is to present a new model to software quality assurance which … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 6,893 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractConstructing Longest Lifetime Route in Mobile Ad-hoc NetworksFredrick Mtenzi, Yingyu WanA mobile ad hoc network (MANET) is an autonomous system consisting of mobile hosts connected by wireless links. Every host can move in any direction at any speed and time. This leads to a dynamic topology as hosts move constantly. MANET broadcast messages to each hosts, the transmission of one host can be heard by all hosts in its communication … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 19 Oct 2005 · 4,941 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMulti-language Co-design Environment for Controller System DesignM. Benmohammed, S. MernizThe present research discuss the main issues and approaches to multi-language design. Two research directions are currently explored by the EDA community. The first is based on the computation models underlying the languages while the second deals with the specification languages themselves. …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,793 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFLANN Detector Based Filtering of Images Corrupted by Impulse NoiseBanshidhar Majhi, Mowafak FathiWe present a novel non-linear scheme for image restoration based on neuro-detector using Functional Link Artificial Neural Network (FLANN) followed by an improved spatial filter. The method is applied to images corrupted by impulse noise with varying strengths and different noise probability. The neural detector is based on the concept of training or learning by examples. When trained properly, the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 7,242 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRole of Cytokines in the Regulation of Glioma Tumour Growth and AngiogenesisChristina Piperi, Athanasios Zisakis, Robert W. Lea, Anastasios KalofoutisMalignant glioblastomas are the most common type of primary brain tumors accounting for more than 50% of all intracranial gliomas. Due to their aggressive nature, recurrent growth, and their extremely poor prognosis for survival, research approaches have made little progress in advancing treatment of these tumours which have the ability of both modulating host immune function and neutralizing immune-based therapies. … …American Journal of Immunology, Vol. 1, Issue 3 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,870 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractComparative Analysis of Economic Policies in Korea and Malaysia after the Financial CrisisSeok YoonThe Asian Economic Crisis of 1997 escalated from Southeast Asia and landed in Northeast Asia. However, in the process of recovery from the crisis, two countries took the opposite approaches. The Korean Government adopted the plans from the IMF and received a rescue fund, but the Malaysian Government adopted the independent recovery plans. With strong fundamentals, a generally liberal and … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 9 · 30 Sep 2005 · 6,821 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Variable Neighborhood Search Algorithm for Assigning Cells to Switches in Wireless NetworksMatthieu Andr, Gilles Pesant, Samuel PierreThe problem of assigning cells to switches in wireless networks consists of minimizing the total operating cost, that is, the cost of linking cells to switches and the cost of handover from one cell to another, by taking into account factors such as network topology, switch capacity and traffic load in the entire network. Such a problem is well known … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 6,753 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSearching of Main Cause Leading to Severe Influenza A Virus Mutations and Consequently to Influenza Pandemics/EpidemicsGuang Wu, Shaomin YanThe unpredictable mutations in the proteins from influenza A virus lead to the great difficulty in prevention of possible outbreak of bird flu and pandemic/epidemic of influenza. This unpredictability is due to the fact that we know little about the causes that lead to the mutations. In three of our recent studies on the hemagglutinins from influenza A virus, we … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2005 · 9,975 accessesView PDFCite
