With the growing popularity of the Web, performance issues have come to the fore both on an intranet basis and on an Internet basis. Web performance impacts the popularity of a particular Web site or service as well as the load on the network. While Web caching has become popular and has been studied extensively, there have been no publically available end-to-end measurements that have focused ...

Demand for the development of convergence industry, research studies on heat transfer, thermal characteristics, semiconductors, motors, and batteries using special materials have come to fore. Meanwhile, molybdenum (Mo) exhibits relatively small inorganic qualities, conductivity rate is applied various fields. In this study, in-depth characteristics were considered regarding concentration IR ch...

The strong association of iodine with organic material and the presence of the cosmogenic radioisotope I make the iodine isotopic system useful in tracing and dating studies of organic materials and their derivatives. We present here results from two new applications of this system, investigations of gas hydrates from the Peru Margin (ODP 201, Site 1230) and of fluids collected from the fore ar...

Fractures in limestones of the Palaeocene Lockhart Formation hanging wall Himalayan Main Boundary Thrust north Islamabad are examined, and data analysed using a combination topology fractal dimension to characterise fracture patterns relate them structural domains. Neither technique alone allows recognition However, when considered together for all fractures within an area, fore-thrusts, pop-up...

Modern software products shall be developed within a short time and at the same time they should be of a high quality. Software engineering is able to fulfill these requirements by prefabricating components. Within a domain, planned and comprehensive reuse of components is supported by the concept of system family development. A system family is based on a reference architecture made of assets,...

In this Article dispersion characteristic of conventional optical waveguide with helical winding at core – cladding interface has been obtained. The model dispersion characteristics of optical waveguide with helical winding at core-cladding interface have been obtained for five different pitch angles. This paper includes dispersion characteristics of optical waveguide with helical winding, and ...

The heterogeneous environment of information retrieval on the World Wide Web has brought the recognition for the need of interoperability among diverse systems to the fore. In subject retrieval, users encounter not only different vocabularies and schemes but also different languages. As a result, there has been a flourish of projects in the last few years aimed at improving the interoperability...
