Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIntegrating a Repairing-based Genetic Algorithm-Neighborhood Search Structure in Solving the Course Timetabling ProblemChong-Keat Teoh, Habibollah Haron, Antoni Wibowo, Mohd. Salihin NgadimanThe course timetabling problem is not a trivial task as it is an NP-hard and NP-complete problem and many solutions have been proposed due to its high complexity search landscape. In essence, the nature of the course timetabling problem is to assign a lecturer-course entity to existing teaching venue and timeslot in an academic institution. In this article, the authors … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 12, Issue 10 · 15 Dec 2016 · 7,102 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractTHE IMPACT OF THE POLYMER COATING NUTRISPHERE™ IN INCREASING NITROGEN USE EFFICIENCY AND CORN YIELDTimothy A. Smith, Ronnie W. Heiniger, Pawel WiatrakCurrently, it is estimated that 50 to 60% of the N applied fertilizer is actually utilized by the crop with the remaining N lost through leaching or denitrification. A three year study was conducted at eight locations in North Carolina to examine the impact of Nutrisphere™ on corn yield, optimum N rate, maximum yield, tissue N concentration, plant biomass and … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 21 Dec 2013 · 8,037 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract“OPTIMIZATION OF MULTI-COMMODITIES CONSUMER SUPPLY CHAINS FOR-PART I-MODELING”Zeinab Haji Abolhasani, Romeo M. Marian, Lee LoungThis study and its companions (Part II, Part III) will concentrate on optimizing a class of supply chain problems known as Multi-Commodities Consumer Supply Chain (MCCSC) problem. MCCSC problem belongs to Production-Distribution (P-D) planning category. It aims to determine facilities location, consumers’ allocation and facilities configuration to minimize total Cost (CT) of the entire network. These facilities can be manufacturer … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 12 · 26 Nov 2013 · 7,840 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAutomatic Target Recognition in Cluttered Visible ImageryM. Jasmine Pemeena Priyadarsini, K. Murugesan, Srinivasa Rao Inbathini et al.Detection of a target from among similar/dissimilar targets in a cluttered image is vital in automatic target recognition. A MACH filter is used for the target detection in cluttered imagery. The cluttered images are correlated using the filter formulated from training images. The target is expected to be detected in the first highest peak. MACH was assumed as an optimum … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 9, Issue 5 · 21 May 2013 · 6,925 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBiosorption of Ternary Cadmium, Nickel and Cobalt Ions from Aqueous Solution onto Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cells: Batch and Column StudiesMaedeh Galedar, Habibollah YounesiThe aim of this study was to remove cadmium, nickel and cobalt ions from aqueous solutions using yeast, Saccharomyces cerevisiae, pre-treated with ethanol. The cells are immobilized using polysulfone in both batch and continuous systems. To optimize the adsorption capacity of the yeast biomass, a batch system was used to investigate the effects of initial pH, initial biomass dose and … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 7,948 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstract2-D Gel Electrophoresis Map of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus aureus Treated with Quercus Infectoria Gall ExtractDayang Fredalina Basri, Lee Seng Aik, Radhiah Khairon, Mariati Abdul RahmanThe widespread outbreak of Methicillin-Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus (MRSA) has caused clinical and epidemiological concern in hospital environment. The emergence of Vancomycin-Intermediate S. Aureus (VISA) and, more recently, Vancomycin-Resistant S. Aureus (VRSA) has further alarmed clinician and scientist worlwide. The objective of this study is to determine the optimum concentration of sample protein from MRSA after treatment with acetone extract from … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 18 Mar 2013 · 7,994 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDynamic Route Shortening and Route Repairing Mechanism for Mobile Ad Hoc NetworksS. Revathi, T. R. RangaswamyProblem statement: Ad hoc Networks are wireless networks without any fixed infrastructure. The network topology changes frequently and unpredictably due to the random movement of the nodes. The Ad Hoc on Demand Distant Vector Routing (AODV) protocol works in a dynamic fashion, by establishing a route on demand and continues that route until it breaks. Due to the changing network … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 8 · 11 Jul 2012 · 7,068 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractRemediation of Diesel Contaminated Soils Using Surfactants: Coulumn StudyE. Salehian, A. Khodadadi, B. HosseiniThis study presents the experimental remediation studies of diesel contaminated soil with Sodium Deducible Sulfate (SDS) as surfactants using column tests. Sandy selected soil had the grain size distribution of # 40 meshes to the # 200 mesh range. The soil columns were contaminated with adequate diesel amount to achieve the concentration of 10000 and 20000 ppm in soil. 0.1, … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 8, Issue 4 · 18 Jun 2012 · 8,320 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSecure Selection of Multiple Resources Based on Virtual Private Network for Computational GridsG. Kavitha, V. SankaranarayananProblem statement: Grid computing provides a virtual framework for controlled sharing of resources across institutional boundaries. In computational grids, a client application is executed on the available set of resources that satisfy the user QoS requirements. Some applications require exhaustive computation power for execution of its tasks. In general, these tasks are assigned to a single available resource on the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 12 · 22 Oct 2011 · 7,607 accessesView PDFCite
