Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractBlockade for Career Advancement in Japanese Organization Abroad: The Case of Malaysian SubsidiariesRaduan Che Rose, Naresh KumarThis study empirically examines the significance of demographic factors and organizational characteristics in influencing the perceived barriers to career advancement of local managers in Japanese subsidiaries. Moreover, significant relationship between stereotype and discrimination and the number of local managers in higher management positions also been analyzed. The perceived barriers were examined through an analysis of 317 local managers working in … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 30 Apr 2007 · 6,973 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHyperspectral Remote Sensing of Vegetation Using Red Edge Position TechniquesHelmi Zulhaidi Mohd Shafri, Mohamad Amran Mohd Salleh, Azadeh GhiyamatTwo red edge position (REP) techniques, Linear and Lagrangian, were applied on hyperspectral data acquired from the HyMap sensor for a forested area in Thetford Forest, UK. Red edge positions of different vegetation covers were extracted with the two approaches from the hyperspectral data. Based on the estimated REPs, the Linear and Lagrangian interpolation methods were compared with ground reference … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 6 · 17 Jun 2006 · 8,111 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA New Compressing Ultrasonic Data Algorithm Based on WaveletsMounir Hergli, Jamel Baili, Faouzi Bouslama, Kamel BesbesIn this paper, we propose a novel and effective algorithm for compressing large volumes of data recorded in underwater applications, using a laboratory designed experimental setup. This data represents samples of ultrasonic signals acquired at different geometric positions of a water tank. The proposed algorithm was based on Wavelets and consists of two processing phases including a prefiltering stage using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,002 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDisplacement of Boron from the Silicon Crystal Nodes by Interstitial Si Atoms During Implantation and AnnealingM. Jadan, A. R. Chelyadinskii, V. Y. YavidThe process of boron displacement from the nodes into interstitial positions of interstitial Si atoms in silicon (Watkins effect) on the conditions of implantation and annealing has been investigated with the help of X-ray diffraction and electrical methods. It was revealed that the efficiency of the Watkins substitution is determined by the ion current density (level of ionization). With increasing … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 5 · 31 May 2005 · 6,985 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractVariation in the Thickness of A Fluid Interface Due to Internal Wave Propagation: A Lattice Boltzmann SimulationJ.M. Buick, D.B. Hann, J.A. CosgroveThe change in the thickness of an interface between two immiscible fluids due to the propagation of an internal capillary-gravity wave along the interface is considered using a Bhatnagar, Gross and Krook (BGK) lattice Boltzmann model of a binary of fluid. The vertical thickness of the interface is recorded from the simulations since this is the most easily measured quantities … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2004 · 7,251 accessesView PDF Cite
