Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractWireless Body Area Sensor Networks Signal Processing and Communication Framework: Survey on Sensing, Communication Technologies, Delivery and FeedbackKhalid Abu Al-Saud, Massudi Mahmuddin, Amr MohamedProblem statement: The Wireless Body Area Sensor Networks (WBASNs) is a wireless network used for communication among sensor nodes operating on or inside the human body in order to monitor vital body parameters and movements. This study surveys the state-of-the-art on Wireless Body Area Networks, discussing the major components of research in this area including physiological sensing and preprocessing, WBASNs … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 1 Nov 2011 · 9,159 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Public User's Role in Breast Self-Examination Teleconsultation System Development: Modified User-Created Content ApproachNorayu A. Talib, Nasriah Zakaria, Sureswaran Ramadass, Faten DamanhooriProblem statement: Teleconsultation services had been introduced in Malaysia for almost 10 years yet it has not been optimally adopted even though it was found that teleconsultation in Malaysia is cost saving, efficient in allocating resources, enhances diagnostic options and better health outcomes. At present, the underutilized service is due to its failure to satisfy the user’s demands on various … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 8 · 16 Jul 2011 · 6,389 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDiagnostic Value of Serum and Cerebrospinal Fluid Procalcitonin in Differentiation Bacterial from Aseptic MeningitisZhinous Bayat Makoo, Hamid Reza Soltani, Akbar Hasani et al.Problem statement: Acute bacterial meningitis is one of the most important causes of medical emergency diseases, which can cause high mortality and morbidity rates. Early antibiotic therapy is life saving in bacterial meningitis. One of the most common etiologies of acute meningitis is viral. Differentiation between bacterial and Aseptic meningitis is mandatory, which leads to avoid useless administration of antibiotics. … …American Journal of Infectious Diseases, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2010 · 12,084 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Application of Ionic Liquids in Catholic Coupling of AcetophenonePo-Chung ChengProblem statement: The cathodic coupling of acetophnone was carried out in aqueous solutions containing sodium sulfate and 1-Octyl-3-Methylimidazolium Chloride ([OMIM]Cl) as supporting electrolytes. [OMIM]Cl is an ionic liquid, also serving as a co-solvent to prevent the deposition of products during electrolysis. The products are extracted with ether after electrolyses. Approach: It is shown in this study that the recycling of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,043 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model of the Optimum Heat Pipe Heat Exchanger for a Condenser of Vapor-Compression Refrigeration CycleP. Yeunyongkul, P. Sakulchangsatjatai, P. TerdtoonProblem statement: This study theoretically investigated applying heat pipe as a heat exchanger in the condenser of vapor compression refrigeration system for sustainable well-being. Split-type air conditioner for residential propose was considered. To reduce pressure drop and recover heat from the condensing process of the refrigeration cycle, this investigation tried to use Closed Loop Oscillating Heat Pipe (CLOHP) instead of … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 8,637 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractCritical Retrospect on Conventional and Luminescent Solar Concentration DevicesHamzah Abdul-Rahman, Chen WangProblem statement: Conventional solar concentrators are only sensitive for the beam radiation and they function poorly in overcast sky conditions. Even under a clear sky condition, trackers are always needed for conventional solar concentrators. Static concentrators always come with a poor concentration rate without a tracker and the light concentrated by normal Luminescent Solar Concentrators (LSC) could not be transported … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2010 · 6,930 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractLow Power Multiplier Design Using Latches and Flip-FlopsC. N. Marimuthu, P. ThangarajProblem statement: Power dissipation is designated as critical parameter in modern VLSI design field. In VLSI implementation low power concept is necessary to meet Moore’s law and to produce consumer electronics with more back up and less weight. To save significant power consumption of a VLSI design, it is a good direction to reduce its dynamic power which is the … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 10 · 30 Jul 2010 · 7,375 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Alternative Ray Tracing Algorithm for Understanding Scenes with Embedded ObjectsNancy Dandachy, Dimitri Plemenos, Safwan Chendeb, Bachar El HassanProblem statement: In the virtual world domain, the existing techniques of exploration, were not able alone to resolve the understanding problem of scenes with embedded object, also they are time and memory consuming. As a solution, a novel method that enhances the visualization of 3D ray traced scenes with embedded objects by creating a hole proportional to its interior parts … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 6, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,294 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Street Vendors of Bangkok: Alternatives to Indoor Retailers at a Time of Economic CrisisJohn WalshProblem statement: During an economic crisis, consumers will use different techniques to make their money go as far as possible: More carefully comparing prices at point of sale locations, bringing out the coins they previously left unused in saving banks, switching to lower cost options and choosing to shop in less convenient locations in order to find discounts. One such … …American Journal of Economics and Business Administration, Vol. 2, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,839 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Novel Approach to Signal Detection of Sensor Array Units Using 5-3-1 Rule Based Matched Filter Algorithm with Intelligent IdentifiersMahmoud Z. IskandaraniA novel approach to signal detection and identification was developed and tested. The new algorithm was based on provision of tagging a Matched Filter (MF) with identifiers to recognize the source signal with and without noise, so that classification can be carried out. The algorithm was applied successfully to chemical Sensor Array Units (SAU). Problem statement: Signals obtained from chemical … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 7,846 accessesView PDFCite
