Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractPotential Environmental and Health Impacts of High Land Application of Cheese WheyA. E. Ghaly, N.S. Mahmoud, D.G. Rushton, F. ArabA laboratory scale experiment was carried out to study the transformation and transport of nitrogenous compounds in soils receiving high application rates of cheese whey (twice the nitrogen requirement for crops). The experimental apparatus consists of 36 soil columns constructed of 20 cm inside diameter PVC pipes. Three types of soil (sandy loam, loam and sandy clay loam) and three … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,155 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThickness Analysis of Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) Slab Compacted Using a Newly Developed Roller CompactorR. Muniandy, F.M. Jakarni, S. Hassim, A.R. MahmudPavement mix design procedures and specifications are usually derived from laboratory experiments. Therefore, laboratory experiments should be able to simulate to a high degree the conditions in the field, especially in term of compaction procedures. Based on literature reviews and analysis of past studies, it can be concluded that there are no exact method for laboratory compaction that can simulate … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2007 · 7,476 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Case Study of Black-Box Testing for Embedded Software using Test Automation ToolChanghyun Baek, Joongsoon Jang, Gihyun Jung et al.This research shows a case study of the Black-Box testing for Temperature Controller (TC) which is one of the typical embedded systems. A test automation tool, TEST, was developed and some kinds of TCs were tested using the tool. We presented statistical analysis for the test results of the automated testing and defined the properties of the software bugs for … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 3 · 31 Mar 2007 · 8,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Effect of Omega-3 Fatty Acids on Nerve Conduction Velocity (NCV) and F-wave Latency in Patients with Diabetic polyneuropathyNaser Zangiabadi, Mohamad N. Ahrari, Nouzar NakhaeeDiabetes mellitus with the prevalence rate of 8.9-12.3% in human population, ultimately leads to the peripheral nervous system involvement in many patients. It causes various types of polyneuropathies, which may manifest abnormalities such as impaired nerve conduction velocity (NCV) and prolonged F-wave latency. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of omega-3 fatty acids on NCV and … …American Journal of Pharmacology and Toxicology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 9,272 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAttenuated Superoxide Dismutase Induction in Retinal Cells in Response to Intermittent High Versus Continuous High GlucoseMichael A. Ihnat, Ronald C. Kaltreider, Jessica E. Thorpe et al.High glucose, particularly in oscillating conditions, produces an increase in oxidative stress and has been shown to result in an increase in diabetic complications, retinopathy in particular. The hypothesis of this work was that chronic exposure to intermittent high glucose results in an attenuated induction of an antioxidant response as compared to continuous high glucose exposure in isolated retinal cells … …American Journal of Biochemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,453 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractData Quality and IndicatorsJorge Matute, A.P. GuptaThis study highlights the importance of collecting good quality data from multidisciplinary studies. Bias in data may be the result of instrument inaccuracies, imprecise data recording techniques, inaccurate data entry to computers or inappropriate statistical analysis and presentation. Recommendations for good data quality control are given. Different types of data are discussed: raw data, simple indicators and complex indicators. It … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2007 · 7,857 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLossless Compression Using LFSRsR. Muthiah, K. Neelakantan, Somi SebastianWhile lossy compression techniques are used for images, sound. where feature reproduction is more important than the actual data, it is necessary to use lossless compression for certain files containing data, programmes. Lossless compression techniques are not as effective as lossy ones and usually require a lot of computation for both compression and decompression. We presented a novel lossless compression … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 6,999 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Framework for Distributed Dynamic Load Balancing in Heterogeneous ClusterNeeraj Nehra, R. B. Patel, V. K. BhatDistributed Dynamic load balancing (DDLB) is an important system function destined to distribute workload among available processors to improve throughput and/or execution times of parallel computer in Cluster Computing. Instead of balancing the load in cluster by process migration, or by moving an entire process to a less loaded computer, we make an attempt to balance load by splitting processes … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Jan 2007 · 8,725 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Environmental and Hydraulic Performance of Bio-Composite Revetment BlocksThamer A. Mohamed, Nor A. Alias, Abdul H. Ghazali, Mohd. S. JaafarIt is necessary to develop a concrete revetment block which can cater for environment and at the same time it will be effective in protecting river banks (stabilize the slope of banks) from scouring during flood. In the present study, the environmental and hydraulic performance of the proposed revetment block was evaluated through laboratory and field tests. The tested revetment … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,967 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSeparation of the Control Plane and Forwarding Plane in Next-Generation RoutersRachid N. Takourout, Samuel Pierre, Laurent MarchandEver since the Internet appeared, network elements, such as routers, have been enhanced with much functionality. They tend to increasingly integrate more services, such as support and security mechanisms, which ensure Quality of Service. Similarly, processor performance continues to increase rapidly. Thus, these two types of evolution trigger the concept of separating the Control plane and the Forwarding plane in … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 11 · 30 Nov 2006 · 6,577 accessesView PDFCite
