Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleINTEREST COVERAGE RATIOS (ICRs) AND FINANCIAL SUSTAINABILITY: APPLICATION TO FIRMS WITH BOVINE DAIRY LIVESTOCKGiuseppe Bonazzi, Mattia IottiAgricultural firms with bovine dairy livestock are characterized by high investments in capital equipment and this is determined by the biological cycle of production, which requires large investments in land, facilities and bovine herd. These large investments require funding from equity capital or debt capital, which generates financial costs. Therefore, it is necessary to assess not only the profitability of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 9, Issue 4 · 15 Oct 2014 · 7,652 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleTraversal Algorithm for Complete CoverageKavitha Thiayagarajan, Coimbatore Ganeshsankar BalajiThere are many applications which require complete coverage and obstacle avoidance. The classical A* algorithm provides the user a shortest path by avoiding the obstacle. As well, the Dijkstra’s algorithm finds the shortest path between the source and destination. But in many applications we require complete coverage of the proposed area with obstacle avoidance. There are LSP, LSSP, BSA, spiral-STC … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 12 · 15 Dec 2012 · 7,120 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Distributed Coverage and Target Tracking Algorithm for Wireless Sensor NetworksM. Senthamilselvi, N. DevarajanProblem statement: Due to communication, processing and energy constraints, tracking in sensor networks creates different challenges. Since existing algorithms utilized the information from all the sensors for tracking, it results in higher expenditure of energy and reduced lifetime for the network. Approach: We propose to develop a distributed coverage and target tracking algorithm for wireless sensor networks. Tracking issue is … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 8, Issue 3 · 6 Jan 2012 · 6,698 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleCoverage Eligibility Rule based Coverage Maintenance Protocol for Energy Conservation in Wireless Sensor NetworksA. Balamurugan, T. PurushothamanProblem statement: Wireless Sensor Networks (WSNs) comprise of small nodes with sensing, computation and wireless communication capabilities. Nodes in a sensor network are severely constrained by energy and computing power. Continuous working of sensor nodes leads to quick depletion of battery power and reduces the overall lifetime. To prolong the lifetime of the sensor nodes, efficient routing protocol that could … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 7, Issue 10 · 6 Aug 2011 · 6,630 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA Control-Oriented Coverage Metric and its Evaluation for Hardware DesignsShireesh Verma, Kiran Ramineni, Ian G. HarrisProblem statement: Dynamic verification, the use of simulation to determine design correctness, is widely used due to its tractability for large hardware designs. A serious limitation of dynamic techniques is the difficulty in determining whether or not a test sequence is sufficient to detect all likely design errors. Coverage metrics are used to address this problem by providing a set … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,528 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleA case study on Journalistic Coverage for Chinese issues in Saudi NewspapersYahya SharahiliAs Journalism could instinctively exert some effects on international relationships; the importance is how to effectively journalism captures attention. This paper, from the perspective of Saudi-China relationship, chose two renowned Saudi newspapers 'AL RIYADH' and 'AL WATAN', as objective samples. Deductive and descriptive methodologies have been applied to a detailed study on the coverage of Chinese issues in Saudi newspapers … …Journal of Social Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2008 · 7,462 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleEvaluation of Biogas Plants by the Application of an Internal Rate of Return and Debt Service Coverage ApproachGiuseppe Bonazzi, Mattia IottiEnergy production using renewable energy has an effect on environmental sustainability and on public expenditure. In fact, this industry is heavily assisted by public support from the European Union and the Italian State. Developing and applying a method to evaluate the return on investment for companies operating in the field of renewable energy allows them to quantify their efficient use … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 1 · 6 Apr 2015 · 7,632 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleImproving Accuracy and Coverage of Data Mining Systems that are Built from Noisy Datasets: A New ModelLuai A. Al ShalabiProblem statement: Noise within datasets has to be dealt with under most circumstances. This noise includes misclassified data or information as well as missing data or information. Simple human error is considered as misclassification. These errors will decrease the accuracy of the data mining system so it will not be likely to be used. The objective was to propose an … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 5, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2009 · 7,820 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleHepatitis B Vaccination Coverage Among Iranian Medical Students and Nursing StaffSeddiqe Amini-Ranjbar, Mohammad Esmaeel MotlaghAfter elapsing more than a decade since the beginning of hepatitis B vaccination program in Iran, this study was designed to investigate the level of hepatitis B vaccination coverage in medical students and nursing staff of Kerman teaching hospitals and to explore the main barriers to vaccination. This cross-sectional study was performed on 493 randomly selected medical students and hospital … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2008 · 7,272 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessEvery word in the titleReliability Evaluation of Distributed Computer Systems Subject to Imperfect Coverage and Dependent Common-Cause FailuresLiudong Xing, Akhilesh ShresthaImperfect coverage (IPC) occurs when a malicious component failure causes extensive damage due to inadequate fault detection, fault location or fault recovery. Common-cause failures (CCF) are multiple dependent component failures within a system due to a shared root cause. Both imperfect coverage and common-cause failures can exist in distributed computer systems and can contribute significantly to the overall system unreliability. … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 2, Issue 6 · 28 Sep 2006 · 6,838 accessesView PDFCite
