Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractASSESSMENT OF OIL PALM PLANTATION AND TROPICAL PEAT SWAMP FOREST WATER QUALITY BY MULTIVARIATE STATISTICAL ANALYSISSeca Gandaseca, Noraini Rosli, Mohammad Shawkat Hossain, Chandra Imam AriantoThis study reports the spatio-temporal changes in river and canal water quality of peat swamp forest and oil palm plantation sites of Sarawak, Malaysia. To investigate temporal changes, 192 water samples were collected at four stations of BatangIgan, an oil palm plantation site of Sarawak, during July-November in 2009 and April-July in 2010. Nine water quality parameters including Electrical Conductivity … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 4 · 3 Jul 2014 · 8,224 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractIMPROVING FAULT TOLERANT RESOURCE OPTIMIZED AWARE JOB SCHEDULING FOR GRID COMPUTINGK. Nirmala Devi, A. TamilarasiWorkflow brokers of existing Grid Scheduling Systems are lack of cooperation mechanism which causes inefficient schedules of application distributed resources and it also worsens the utilization of various resources including network bandwidth and computational cycles. Furthermore considering the literature, all of these existing brokering systems primarily evolved around models of centralized hierarchical or client/server. In such models, vital responsibility such … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 10, Issue 5 · 4 Jan 2014 · 6,904 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGENERALIZED LINEAR MIXED MODELS WITH SPATIAL RANDOM EFFECTS FOR SPATIO-TEMPORAL DATA: AN APPLICATION TO DENGUE FEVER MAPPINGKrisada Lekdee, Lily IngsrisawangThe Generalized Linear Mixed Models (GLMMs) with spatial random effects for spatio-temporal data are proposed. A hierarchical Bayesian method is used for parameter estimation. The random effects are assumed to be normally distributed and the spatial random effects are assumed to be proper Conditional Autoregressive (CAR) models. The proposed models are applied to Dengue fever data in Northern Thailand, including … …Journal of Mathematics and Statistics, Vol. 9, Issue 2 · 13 May 2013 · 8,070 accessesView PDFCite
