Information storage in a decentralized computer system

This paper describes an architecture for shared information storage in a decentralized computer system. The issues that are addressed include: naming of files and other objects (naming), reliable storage of data (stable storage), coordinated access to shared storage (transactional storage), location of objects (location), use of multiple copies to increase performance, reliability and availability (replication), dynamic modification of object representations (reconfiguration), and storage security and authentication (protection). A complete model of the architecture is presented, which describes the interface to the facilities provided, and describes in detail the proposed mechanisms for implementing them. The model presents new approaches to naming, location, replication, reconfiguration, and protection. To verify the model, three prototypes were constructed, and experience with these prototypes is discussed. The model names objects with variable length byte arrays called references. References may contain location information, protection guards, cryptographic keys, and other references. In addition, references can be made indirect to delay their binding to a specific object or location. The replication mechanism is based on assigning votes to each copy of a replicated object. The characteristics of a replicated object can be chosen from a range of possibilities by appropriately choosing its voting configuration. Temporary copies can be easily implemented by introducing copies with no votes. The reconfiguration mechanism allows the storage that is used to implement an object to change while the system is operating. A client need not be aware that an object has been reconfigured. The protection mechanism is based on the idea of sealing an object with a key. Sealed objects can only be unsealed with an appropriate set of keys. Complex protection structures can be created by using such operators as Key-Or and Key-And. The protection mechanism can be employed to create popular protection policies such as capabilities, access control lists, and information flow control.

This paper discusses the form and meaning of conjunctive relation and how conjunctive relation is translated from source language into target language. The different system of amongst languages in forming words, sentences or paragraph might represent peculiar form and meaning. As a part of element in determining logical meaning, conjunctive relation can be in the form of conjunction, verb, noun, preposition and implicit. Those forms signal how unity of a text constructed. In translation, the use of conjunctive relation forms frequently make problem for translators since it is closely related to logical meaning in a text. In translating text, different meaning between two languages should be occasionally translated into different form and meaning of the two languages. To understand a text comprehensively, a reader must know the unity of a text. One of the aspects to determine unity of a text in translation is conjunctive relation. The unity of a text can be covered with the conjunctive relation which signal logical relation among clauses, sentences and paragraph, so that in translation cohesiveness of a text is interpreted well both in source text and target text.
ASSOCIATIVE AND RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY USING ONE-DIMENSIONAL MAPS

A method for storing and retrieving information on the stable cycles of one-dimensional maps as proposed in Dmitriev [1991], Dmitriev, Panas & Starkov [1991] is considered. The applicability of this method in storing and retrieving two-dimensional pictures is demonstrated. Possible extensions by compressing information are discussed. An implementation of random access memory using a one-dimensional map is also considered.
Can Morphological Analyzers Improve the Quality of Optical Character Recognition

Optical Character Recognition (OCR) can substantially improve the usability of digitized documents. Language modeling using word lists is known to improve OCR quality for English. For morphologically rich languages, however, even large word lists do not reach high coverage on unseen text. Morphological analyzers offer a more sophisticated approach, which is useful in many language processing applications. is paper investigates language modeling in the open-source OCR engine Tesseract using morphological analyzers. We present experiments on two Uralic languages Finnish and Erzya. According to our experiments, word lists may still be superior to morphological analyzers in OCR even for languages with rich morphology. Our error analysis indicates that morphological analyzers can cause a large amount of real word OCR errors.
RNA Splice Sites Classification Using Convolutional Neural Network Models

RNA splicing refers to the elimination of noncoding region on transcribed pre-messenger ribonucleic acid (RNA). Identifying splicing site is an essential step which can be used to gain novel insights of alternative splicing as well as splicing defects, potentially cause malfunction of protein resulting from mutations at splice site. In this work, we propose a data preprocessing step applying to RNA sequences and the models leveraging Convolutional Neural Network (CNN). The preprocessing step includes reducing sequence length into 40 nucleotides. CNN models recognize splice sites on RNA sequences. Our proposed models output the promising results which increase F1-score (nearly 20%) comparing with recent alternative approaches when testing on GWH dataset. Keywords—RNA splice sites, Bio-inspired computing, Computational biology, Deep learning predictive models in bioinformatics
Effectiveness of Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation ( rTMS ) on Borderline Personality Disorder Symptoms : A Case Report

Repetitive Transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation method used in the treatment of treatment-resistant major depressive disorder patients. Although it is approved in the treatment of major depressive disorder, it can also be used off-label in the treatment of various other psychiatric disorders. Borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a psychiatric disorder with severe functional loss and recurrent suicidal behaviors. Studies suggested that the impairments in certain brain regions might have been the underlying condition. In this report, we report use of rTMS in a patient with impulsive control disorder and recurrent suicide attempts. We recommend consideration of rTMS as a new alternative treatment method in the management of BPD symptoms due to positive clinical progress in our case.
A description of Leuciscus lepidus ( HECKEL , 1843 ) with comments on Leuciscus and leuciscine-aspinine relationships ( Pisces : Cyprinidae )

The external morphology, sensory canals and osteology of Leuciscus lepidus (HECKEL, 1843), a species from the Tigris-Euphrates and adjacent basins are described based on the collections of the Zoologisches Museum und Zoologisches Institut, Universität Hamburg, Senckenberg Museum, Frankfurt a. Main and the Narurhistorisches Museum Wien. Wide anatomical inand out-group comparisons are made to arrive at the phylogenetic relationships of L. lepidus (HECKEL, 1843) within the genus and the subfamily Leuciscinae. It is shown that several species of Leuciscus (L. cephalus (LINNAEUS, 1758), L. pyrenaicus GUNTHER, 1868, L. illyricus (HECKEL & KNER, 1858), L. svallize (HECKEL & KNER, 1858), L. spurius (HECKEL, 1843) and L. lepidus (HECKEL, 1843), the latter being the most derived member of this lineage and the entire genus) form an assemblage characterized by a suite of common derived features some of which are specializations shared with genera of the tribe Aspinini sensu BOGUTSKAYA (1990a, 1991a) or, partly, the aspinine group sensu HOWES (1978, 1984). Morphological differences between the Aspinini and the Pseudaspinini are also discussed.
New Approach for Measurement Data Handling in Cloud-Based Synchrophasor Systems for Smart Grids

The classical Wide-Area Monitoring System (WAMS) ischaracterized by a hierarchical architecture composed of Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) and different levels of Phasor Data Concentrators (PDCs). The WAMS based on synchrophasor technology was originally designed for transmission systems; nevertheless, with the development of the smart grid paradigm, the benefits of this technology are being extended to the distribution network. Normally, PMUs send measurement data ata high and constant reporting rate to guarantee the monitoring of dynamic events in the electric transmission network.However, the typical communication systems expected to be used by distribution system operators will be generally shared and/or public and,in this case, the bandwidth available among PMUs and PDCs, or among the PDCs and the control center, is strictly dependent on the type of communication channel used and on thelevel of network traffic. In this context, a new transmission logic for thetransfer of data between PMUs and PDCs can be implemented. The strategy proposed in this paper is to increase the measurementreporting rate only when the electric system changes from a steady-state condition to a dynamic and potentially unsafe condition. The risk of losing important information related to the dynamic event is mitigated by sending the PDC measurements relating to pre-trigger events aggregated in the first data packet following the event detection.
Optimized Web Information Retrieval with Fuzzy Logic

The World Wide Web contains a huge amount of unclassified data and its continuous growth has made it a complex domain for information retrieval. Current web information retrieval(IR) systems(i.e., Search engines) very often overload the user with irrelevant search results. This has forced the user to perform a certain level of analysis on the results returned. Web IR systems are currently one of the most researched areas in the computer industry. So far there have been many attempts to incorporate Soft Computing techniques such as Fuzzy Logic, Neural Networks, Genetic Algorithms, etc. This paper focuses on how Fuzzy Logic can be introduced to IR systems. The current applications of Fuzzy techniques are analyzed and a concept called “Macro-clustering” is introduced as a solution for optimizing results of generalized search queries.
International Conference on Globalization of Higher Education in Economics and Business Administration , GEBA 2013 Who ’ s afraid of the effect size ?

The effect size (no more than 35 years) is new topic discussion especially in psychological field. He is quantified by a class of descriptive statistical indicators which based on d Cohen’s coefficient. The effect size bring us an additional information to inferential decision to accept or to reject the Null Hypothesis, reason that we find an wide discussion under name Null Hypothesis Significance Testing (NHTS). Therefore the American Psychological Association (APA) recommended in chapter 1.01 Designing and Reporting Research; all published statistical reports also include effect size (APA 5th edition manual section (2002)). © 2014 The Authors.

The Sticky Case of Sticky Data: An Examination of the Rationale, Legality, and Implementation of a Right to Data Portability Under European Competition Law

Commercial needs have pushed online services to gather as much data as possible about what people have done online. Aggregating and matching those data helps to improve the productivity of online services. Nonetheless, this also raises the risk of abuse in the form of privacy violations, locking-in of users into ‘sticky’ services, and monopolistic or unfair competition. The European Union’s proposed solution to these market risks is to enshrine a right to data portability as part of the General Data Protection Regulation. Under this proposed reform, individuals would be given the right to access their personal data in order to switch electronically those data from one online service to its rival through a commonly used electronic format. Critics of a right to data portability argue that an obligation to make data usable by rivals would be incompatible with existing competition principles, and would reduce dynamic efficiency and innovation. The objective of this Paper is to evaluate the theoretical and legal basis for a right to data portability, as well as its practical implementation. This Paper makes contributions to existing scholarship in three ways. First, it conducts a legal analysis of Commission and European Court of Justice opinions to examine the legality of a right to data portability under European competition law. Second, it provides a theoretical comparison between data portability and number portability to better inform a policy framework. Third, it advances literature on the effective implementation of RDP by offering a research design to make an ex ante assessment of RDP’s potential adoption.
Data Source Management using weight table in u-GIS DSMS

The emergences of GeoSensor and researches about GIS have promoted many researches of u-GIS. The disaster application coupled in the u-GIS can apply to monitor accident area and to prevent spread of accident. The application needs the u-GIS DSMS technique to acquire, to process GeoSensor data and to integrate them with GIS data. The u-GIS DSMS must process big and large-volume data stream such as spatial data and multimedia data. Due to the feature of the data stream, in u-GIS DSMS, query processing can be delayed. Moreover, as increasing the input rate of data in the area generating events, the network traffic is increased. To solve this problem, in this paper we describe TRIGGER ACTION clause in CQ on the u-GIS DSMS environment and proposes data source management. Data source weight table controls GES information and incoming data rate. It controls incoming data rate as increasing weight at GES of disaster area. Consequently, it can contribute query processing rate and accuracy
Histopathological finding of liver and kidney tissues of the yellow mystus , Hemibagrus filamentus ( Fang and Chaux , 1949 ) , from the Tapee River , Thailand

A histological finding of liver and kidney tissues of yellow mystus, Hemibagrus filamentus (Fang and Chaux, 1949), collected from the Tapee River (Chawang District, Nakhon Si Thammarat Province, Thailand) was conducted to examine the pathological lesions. Lesions, including cellular swelling, hydropic degeneration, or vacuolation of hepatocytes were found. From this, coagulative necrosis with pyknotic nuclei, infiltration of macrophage, constriction of sinusoidal capillaries and damage of endothelial cells of blood vessels were observed in liver tissues. The dilation of both Bowman’s space and the glomerulus were observed from kidney lesions. Moreover, necrosis in renal tubular cells was also observed in some areas. Although preliminary, the results from this study clearly show the need for further investigation into stress factors and vectors affecting the health of H. filamentus and other fish species within the Tapee River.
Implementing the Reordered PageRank Algorithm in Giraph

PageRank, a method to rank web pages objectively and mechanically, models a random web surfer. The PageRank problem is most easily solved iteratively, using the power method. In this paper the reordered PageRank algorithms are discussed. These algorithms (proposed by A. N. Langville and C. D. Meyer in "A reordering for the PageRank problem") see the PageRank problem as a linear system of equations and begin by reordering the input Graph/matrix. This way only a smaller problem has to be solved. A disadvantage is that it does take a few extra steps to gain the PageRank values from the solution to this smaller problem. We've developed a suitable stopping condition for these algorithms. However, numerical experiments indicate that this stopping condition is much stricter than the stopping condition for the power method. The reordered PageRank algorithms and the power method have been implemented in Giraph, an open source version of Pregel. Pregel and Giraph are frameworks for solving large graph problems distributively in a vertex centred manner. Because of some of the bugs and features in Giraph (and the inherent complexity of the reordered PageRank algorithms), implementing the reordered PageRank algorithms is much more complicated than implementing the power method. The reordered PageRank algorithms are not faster than the power method in Giraph. Even when accounting for the difference in stopping condition the power method is much faster than the reordered PageRank algorithms.
Adaptability of Bermudagrass Turf Varieties to a Mediterranean Environment

The main agronomic interest in bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon (L.) Pers. ) in the last quarter of the 20 Century was in environments with harsh weather condition when the species was used as a turfgrass. Suitable varieties were mainly released in the USA and were well adapted to warm conditions of the USA bermudagrass belt, while information on their establishment and performance in Mediterranean sites was scant. An experiment on turf lawns using the most popular seed market bermudagrass varieties was established on a site with typical Mediterranean climate (Foggia, southern Italy). In July of 1999, the varieties were hand seeded in an experimental block design and evaluated across five years for qualitative, spring greenup and dormancy traits. The range of scores over the years was 7.9-8.4, 6-6.3 and 7.8-8.2, respectively for turf quality, colour and cover traits. A larger range of variation was observed in shoot density, in spring and summer assessment (21.6-29 and 21.2-30.4 stems 25 cm, respectively). Results over seasons showed differences among cultivars for all qualitative characteristics. Spring score values were higher than those of other seasons for all traits. Autumn score was lower by 14.1%, 25.6% and 6.4% than the spring and summer season values, respectively for turf quality, colour and cover traits. All cultivars evaluated adapted well to the Mediterranean environment. When data was processed by a cluster method, a different adaptability among varieties to different seasons was shown. Varieties ‘Jackpot’ and ‘Shangri-La’ were in a group of best varieties in all seasons and for all qualitative traits. _____________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Land and power in Africa : The effects of recent land reforms

Since the end of the Cold War, African countries have seen a wave of land law reforms that have had various consequences. This paper focuses on the effects of such reforms on state-building. Although donors have supported land law reforms to strengthen tillers’ land rights, some African countries have used such reforms to increase the state’s power to control land. The paper identifies three consequences of such reforms among African countries. First, countries that have carried out systematic land registration, such as Ethiopia and Rwanda, have strengthened state control of land. Land registration has been closely linked to the state-building efforts of the ruling parties, which were former guerrillas and have formed authoritarian governments. Second, in countries under one-party dominant systems like Tanzania and Mozambique, land law reform has been utilised to strengthen the state or the ruling party’s control of rural societies. Finally, in countries like Zambia, land law reform has accelerated the delegation of power from the central government and has increased the autonomy of traditional chiefs. In the political environment, in which no ruling party has monopolised the national-level political power for a long time, traditional chiefs enjoy considerable autonomy. This paper shows that the effects of land law reform on state-building in Africa vary according to the system of state power and the ruling political party.
Developing a Model for Intellectual Capital Measurement in Knowledge-Based Organizations

Intellectual capital is knowledge that can be converted to value and researchers consider it to consist of the following components: human capital, structural capital, customer capital, and social capital. These components of intellectual capital are typically found in the minds of employees and within organizational structures and processes. In order to give intellectual capital a high level of attention and effectively manage an environment that helps to facilitate intellectual capital transfer, management must understand how it is transferred throughout the organization. Although specific mechanisms may not yet be fully understood, intellectual capital is thought to be transferred from source to receiver through an exchange process called knowledge transfer. Knowledge transfer has been described as the transmission and receipt of knowledge from sender to recipient. This study tries to develop a model for knowledge based organizations in science and technology parks using structural equations modeling using 74 company manager‟s points of view. According to the SEM approach, the unknown model parameters are chosen to make, in general, the model-reproduced covariance matrix as close as possible to the sample covariance matrix. If the proposed model emulates the sample matrix (which can be measured by the goodness-of-fit indices) to a sufficient extent, it can be treated as a plausible description of the investigated phenomenon, and the theory from which the model has been derived is supported.
Decentralized hybrid intersection control

A decentralized hybrid traffic intersection control for urban areas is presented. First, an isolated intersection control problem is analyzed. Based on the different traffic conditions in an isolated intersection, a simple hybrid controller is proposed. Then this controller is extended to the network level, i.e., the effects of the control between multi-intersections are considered. This extension is concluded as a decentralized hybrid intersection controller, in which a finite state machine contains five states to represent the different traffic conditions. A simple simulation example is given and the simulation results show that this decentralized hybrid intersection control method can improve the performance of traffic networks.
Series 0804 How Banking Competition Changed over Time

This paper is the first detailed and world-wide investigation of the developments in banking competition during the past fiffteen years. Using the Panzar-Rosse approach, we establish significant changes over time in the competitiveness of the banking industry. The changes in competition over time are small on average, but substantial for several countries and regions. Various Western economies faced a significant decline in banking competition during recent years. In particular, the competitive climate in the euro area was subject to a major break around 2001 2002, initiating a period of less competition. Also for the United States and Japan we establish a break during this period. The part of Eastern Europe that now belongs to the European Union experienced a significant but modest decrease in competition during the past ten years. Furthermore, the banking industry in emerging markets became more competitive during the last decade. We attribute the predominantly downward trend in competition to increased bank size and the shift from traditional intermediation to off-balance sheet activities.
