It is well known that TCP does not fully utilize the available bandwidth in fast long-distance networks. This paper proposes S-shaped TCP (SS-TCP). The window growth function of SS-TCP is, in the steady state condition, S-shaped, and it can be divided into three regions. In region I, the window growth rate of SS-TCP is the same as that of standard TCP (STD-TCP). In region II, the window of SS-T...

a one-sided ideal of a ring has the insertion of factors property (or simply, ifp) if implies r for . we say a one-sided ideal of has the weakly ifp if for each , implies , for some non-negative integer . we give some examples of ideals which have the weakly ifp but have not the ifp. connections between ideals of which have the ifp and related ideals of some ring extensions are also shown.

PURPOSE To assess effectiveness and durability of Solifenacin (SS) versus tibial nerve stimulation (PTNS) versus combination therapy (PTNS + SS) in women with overactive bladder syndrome (OAB). MATERIALS AND METHODS 105 women with OAB were divided randomly into three groups of 35 patients each. In group A women received SS, in group B women underwent PTNS, in group C women underwent combinati...

To understand the genetic basis of pathways involved in the control of breathing, a large scale, high-throughput study using chromosomal substitution strains of rats is underway. Eight new consomic rat stains (SS-2(BN), SS-4(BN), SS-6(BN), SS-7(BN), SS-8(BN), SS-11(BN), SS-12(BN), SS-14(BN), SS-Y(BN)), containing one homozygous BN/NHsdMcwi (BN) chromosome on a background of SS/JrHsdMcwi (SS), w...

This study investigated the time-frequency variability of Global Horizontal Irradiation (GHI) under clear sky conditions in Cameroon relation to aerosol types using wavelet transform method. For this purpose, we focused on two climatically different zones (Far North and Littoral) chosen because large difference term proportion type aerosols. From Bivariate Wavelet Coherence (BWC) analysis, it w...
