Distributed Data Replenishment

Entropy-based Consensus for Distributed Data Clustering

The increasingly larger scale of available data and the more restrictive concerns on their privacy are some of the challenging aspects of data mining today. In this paper, Entropy-based Consensus on Cluster Centers (EC3) is introduced for clustering in distributed systems with a consideration for confidentiality of data; i.e. it is the negotiations among local cluster centers that are used in t...

Modeling Algae Self-Replenishment

Transdermal iron replenishment therapy.

Iron deficiency anemia is one of the major nutritional deficiency disorders. Iron deficiency anemia occurs due to decreased absorption of iron from diet, chronic blood loss and other associated diseases. The importance of iron and deleterious effects of iron deficiency anemia are discussed briefly in this review followed by the transdermal approaches to deliver iron. Transdermal delivery of iro...

The Replenishment Staggering Problem Revisited

The replenishment staggering problem is the problem of offsetting inventory replenishment cycles of several items in order to minimize the maximum required storage space and/or other storage resources. In its simplest version, inventory consumption rates are constant over time and replenishment cycle lengths are known integer multiples of a given basic period. In this paper, a simple, efficient...

A High Performance Parallel IP Lookup Technique Using Distributed Memory Organization and ISCB-Tree Data Structure

The IP Lookup Process is a key bottleneck in routing due to the increase in routing table size, increasing traıc and migration to IPv6 addresses. The IP address lookup involves computation of the Longest Prefix Matching (LPM), which existing solutions such as BSD Radix Tries, scale poorly when traıc in the router increases or when employed for IPv6 address lookups. In this paper, we describe a ...
