While I agree with the Morris division of semiotics, I am deeply unsatisfied with the way this division is applied in most studies in theoretical cartography. This is why below I would like to propose a new approach to the definition of these three subfields of semiotics in the cartographic context. I am particularly interested in the role pragmatics, currently one of the most dynamically devel...

Outgoing from the known uniform FBMC (Filter-Bank Multi-Carrier) formats with Nyquist spectral shaped sub-channels and its time-frequency dual Time-Limited Orthogonal (TLO) form, we introduce an orthogonal frequency division multiplex of nonuniformly spaced and unequal-width sub-channels. The goal is to attain potential gains in using relatively small number of subchannels, but still allow for ...

Hadoop represents a Java-based distributed computing framework that is designed to support applications that are implemented via the MapReduce programming model. In general, workload dependent Hadoop performance optimization efforts have to focus on 3 major categories. Namely the systems HW, the systems SW, and the configuration and tuning/optimization of the Hadoop infrastructure components. F...
