NANOPARTICLE-BRIDGE ASSAY FOR AMPLIFICATION-FREE ELECTRICAL DETECTION OF OLIGONUCLEOTIDES
(2015-12-08)
The aim of this research is to investigate a highly sensitive, fast, inexpensive, and field-applicable amplification-free nanoparticle-based oligonucleotide detection method which does not rely on any enzymatic or signal ...
LANDFILL VOLUME GAIN FROM THE DIVERSION OF CONSTRUCTION AND DEMOLITION WASTE
(2015-12-09)
Construction and Demolition (C&D) waste is one of the major components of the solid waste and is defined as a waste stream resulting from the construction, renovation and demolition of structures such as buildings, roads, ...
REDUCING THE ENCODING TIME OF MOTION ESTIMATION IN HEVC USING PARALLEL PROGRAMMING
(2015-12-02)
High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC) is the current state-of-art video codec which is widely being adopted by lot of users. It has close to 50% reduction in encoding time compared to its predecessor, H.264 or AVC (Advanced ...
