Extraction and comparison of properties of jackfruit seed oil and sunflower seed oil[ ]


The objective of the study is to extract oil from jackfruit seeds and compare its properties with that of sunflower oil. The oil was extracted by milling the jackfruit seeds. The jackfruit seed oil was used as a medium for frying potato chips. The frying properties were compared to that of milled sunflower oil. The potato chips were analysed for their sensory properties. The chips were evaluated by a team of 20 semi-trained panellists who graded the samples on a 5-point Hedonic scale. The sensory attributes included texture, aroma, flavour, colour, taste and overall acceptability. The results revealed that the texture and colour of the potato chips fried in jackfruit seed oil were similar to those which were fried in sunflower oil. The jackfruit seed oil was also tested for its physicochemical properties such as Acid value, Iodine value, Peroxide value and Saponification value. The results were 3.51, 14.15, 0.954 and 251 respectively. The free fatty acid was estimated to be 1.35g/100g. The peroxide value of the oil was found to be lower than that of sunflower oil.

Identifying multifunctional agriculture outputs and their importance for farmers[ ]


Although the objectives that are sought were to orientate farmers towards multifunctionality in agriculture, this analysis was undertaken after important factors were revealed in the designation of multifunctionality. From an individual perspective, the overlapping of motivations to improve this agricultural model with motivations to go towards multifunctional agriculture, is an opportunity for farmers convince that the motivation for multifunctional agricultural depends on their income which is determined by their social origins. The strategy used to describe the multifunctional concept relates to the identification and determination of the most important attributes of the agricultural sector in social and cultural systems in the Berat district. Through the Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) method the most important agriculture objectives have been identified where the results achieved show that the production output remains among the most important. In addition to the views in general of the characteristics of multifunctional agriculture of our country, we will pause to look at in depth to recommend possible developments in the county of Berati. The main reason why we have chose this county is that it represents the average the economic indicators, social and environmental, of Albania.

Accuracy Assessment of SRTM and ASTER DEM's over Egypt[ ]


Digital Elevation Model (DEM) is one of the most important, simplest and most commonly used in digital representations of the topography and geodata. DEM's are needed in large number of analyses and applications; the accuracy of DEM' is usually represented by spatial resolution and height. There are several ways to acquire eleva-tion data and generate DEMs; while each method has its own strengths and weaknesses all DEMs contain errors. The SRTM and ASTER GDEM2 are most freely available commonly used DEM's. This paper therefore investigates and assessed the quality of vertical accuracy of the two DEM's with spatial resolution 1 arc sec. over Egypt. Two reference data sets are used as a referenced elevation data. The first data set is a differential GPS ground control points with known orthometric height data set distributed over whole Egypt. Also a digitized spots elevation and contours from the topographic maps 1:50000 cover a specified study area was the second one. The study area located along the river Nile with 81 km * 54 km approximate dimensions from (31° 00’ E to 31° 30’ E) and (29° 00’ N to 29° 45’ N). It was observed that The SRTM DEM performs better than ASTER GDEM2 referenced to the differential GPS elevation data. The root mean square errors RMS for the GPS data set were ± 7.040 m for the SRTM and ±12.658 m for the ASTER GDEM2. Applying the same test for the study area referenced to the topographic map elevation data set after horizontal shift adjustment it was observed that, The RMSE was ± 8.56 m for the SRTM which is better than STER GDEM2 RMS ± 9.78 m.. The results from both assessments revealed the suitability and good performance of the SRTM DTM for geomatics applications over Egypt.

Receiver Initiated Dynamic Multiple Common Control Channel Design (RI-DMCCD) Protocol for Cognitive Radio Network[ ]


Now-a-days in wireless communication, Cognitive Radio Network (CRN) is hot topics for researchers, in where thinking is updated day by day for the future use. The CRN is a way to improve the spectral efficiency of wireless communication. In CRN secondary users in different channels can access the licensed channels at the absence of primry user and use the available channels for transmitting data to another user. As a result a CRN faces many challenges to successful channel rendezvous amongest the secondary users, maximize throughput and minimize rendezvous delay. A large number of methodologies have been proposed to solve channel rendezvous problem in CRN. But this is not efficient to handle such types of problems. However, in this paper a Receiver Initiative Dynamic Multiple Common Control Channel Design mechanism named as RI-DMCCD have been proposed to handle PUs efficiently and make a channel rendezvous successfully. Furthermore, we have analyzed the proposed mechanism and implemented through simulation and found better performance in terms of different performance metrics.
