Hydroponic sweet basil (O. basilicum L.) farming uses a recirculating nutrient solution that may spread waterborne microbial contamination including algae. Plasma, the fourth state of matter, generates antimicrobial reactive oxygen and nitrogen species when exposed to water. The objective this work was study effect plasma-treated water-based on plant growth in reduction Basil plants were grown ...

Indoor channel measurements for body and personal area network applications have been conducted between a number of on-body positions and to three nearbypeer locations. Particular attention has been paid to the relation between the channel characteristics and the user’s motion. The results demonstrate how the channel characteristics in BANs/PANs are dominated by the effects of body blocking. Wi...

A systematic methodology to synthesize systolic designs is described and used to derive a new design for dynamic programming. This latter design uses fewer processing elements than previously considered ones. The synthesis method consists of two pans: 1) deriving from the high-level problem specification a form more suitable to VLSI implementation; 2) mapping the new specification into physical...

Introduction: Xenobiotic contamination is a global concern. Nitroaromatic compounds enter the environment through ammunition, ordnance disposal, burning the outdoors, and leakage of ammunition. Thirty percent of explosives enter the environment without any change, which can cause pollution of soil, water, and health concerns. So, effective remediation of the contaminated area is necessary. Mat...

We consider the problem of locating a light coin out of a set containing n coins, n ? 1 of which have the same weight. The weighing device is a balance with r 2 pans and, when r equally sized subset of coins are weighted, it indicates the eventual subset containing the light coin. We give an algorithm to nd the counterfeit coin that requires the minimum possible average number of weighings. All...
