Point-of-care testing (POCT) has evolved as an important part of laboratory medicine by virtue of its compactness, portability, and the feasibility of operation by nonlaboratory personnel, where fast and accurate testing methods are a primary concern and, as a result, improving the patient care. To successfully achieve POCT quality in networks, a multidisciplinary organizational approach is req...

Frequencies above 10 GHz are of primary importance in current satellite systems. In this paper, an analytical model is presented for the prediction of the adjacent satellite interference, cross-polarization and ice depolarization effects on channel capacity statistics of a dual polarized satellite link. As source of the aggravation of the adjacent satellite interference is considered here the p...

glycerol is a promising feedstock for microbial cultivation and production of 1,3 propanediol (1,3 pdo). here we report a newly isolated bacterial strain ba11 from soil, capable of fermenting glycerol to 1,3 pdo, and has been identified to be a strain of klebsiella pneumoniae. strain ba11 was fast growing showing peak 1,3 pdo production in 6 h of cultivation with productivity of 1.2 g/l-h witho...

Glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase catalyzes the conversion of glycinamide ribonucleotide and 10-formyltetrahydrofolate to formylglycinamide ribonucleotide and tetrahydrofolate. The enzyme purified from the murine lymphoma cell line L5178Y also catalyzes two other de novo purine biosynthetic activities, glycinamide ribonucleotide synthetase and aminoimidazole ribonucleotide synthetase. T...

Renewable energy sources i.e., energy generated from solar, wind, biomass, hydro power, geothermal and ocean resources are considered as a technological option for generating clean energy. This paper presents the Solar-Wind hybrid Power system that harnesses the renewable energies in Sun and Wind to generate electricity. System control relies mainly on micro controller. It ensures the optimum u...

In this paper, we have evaluated Bit Error Rate (BER) performance of interleave-division multiple-access (IDMA) systems with BPSK & QPSK modulation techniques when the system is subjected to Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN) in the channel. The BPSK and QPSK modulation techniques are already well trusted techniques with codedivision multiple-access (CDMA) systems however, IDMA scheme is refe...

Spectrally Efficient FDM systems (SEFDM) promise increased spectral utilization at the cost of receiver complexity. In this paper, new reception arrangement for SEFDM system is proposed and analyzed. The signal demodulation is based on the subcarrier structure of the signal. Simple implementation based on the Discrete Fourier Transform (DFT) is introduced, thus significantly reducing the comple...

This paper introduces a scheme for online dynamic bandwidth allocation for variable bit rate (VBR) traffic over ATM networks. The presented method determines the optimum bandwidth renegotiation time and bandwidth amount to allocate to VBR traffic source by minimizing predefined cost functions. Traffic rate predictor designed by wavelets is provided as feedback to the system. The results show th...

The parallelized FTP (P-FTP) approach, attempts to solve the problem of slow downloads of large multimedia files while optimizing the utilization of mirror servers. The approach presented in this paper downloads a single file from multiple mirror servers simultaneously, where each mirror server transfers a portion of the file. The P-FTP server calculates the optimum division of the file for eff...

We propose an innovative cooperative co-evolutionary computation framework, Dynamic Cooperative Coevolution (DCC), which provides dynamic coupling of neighboring species for the fitness evaluation of individuals. One feature of DCC is the utilization of local fitness to achieve a global optimum, which makes it possible for co-evolutionary algorithms to be applied in localized distributed enviro...
