Although some existing Remote Procedure Call (RPC) systems provide support for remote invocation of parallel applications, these RPC systems lack powerful scheduling methodologies for the dynamic selection of resources for the execution of parallel applications. Some RPC systems support parallel execution of software routines with simple modes of parallelism. Some RPC systems statically choose ...

HYPOTHESIS A model could be developed to identify patients who can safely undergo restorative proctocolectomy (RPC) without proximal diversion. DESIGN Logistic regression analysis was used to identify independent factors favoring omission of ileostomy at the time of RPC. A propensity nomogram was developed and validated using measures of calibration, discrimination, and subgroup analysis. S...

introduction: during hemorrhagic shock (hs), the kidneys are one of the primary target organs involved. oxidative stress is shown to be enhanced in different models of acute kidney injury (aki). remote ischemic preconditioning (rpc) by brief limb ischemia is considered to be a safe method to protect different organs from further damage. in this study, we investigated the effects of brief hind l...

Rajdoot is an RPC mechanism with a number of fault tolerance capabilities. The paper first discusses the reliability related issues and then describes how these issues have been dealt with in the RPC design. Rajdoot supports exactly once semantics with call nesting capability and incorporates effective measures for orphan detection and killing. Previously reported RPC mechanisms have not paid a...

The Resistive Plate Chambers (RPC) detector of the CMS experiment at the LHC proton collider (CERN, Switzerland) will employ an online gas analysis and monitoring system of the freon-based gas mixture used. We give an overview of the CMS RPC gas system, describe the project parameters and first results on gas-chromatograph analysis. Finally, we report on preliminary results for a set of monitor...

In this work several aspects of ATLAS RPC offline monitoring and data quality assessment are illustrated with cosmics data selected by RPC trigger. These correspond to trigger selection, front-end mapping, detection efficiency and occupancy, which are studied in terms of low level quantities such as: RPC off-line hits and standalone tracks. The tools and techniques presented are also extended t...

A n important aspect of designing a distributed application is the communication model you use to connect its various components. Some middleware solutions, 1 such as Web services, 2 offer two of the most important communication paradigms: asynchronous messaging and remote procedure call (RPC). Message-oriented middleware (MOM) lets a ser-vice's consumers physically and temporally decou-ple fro...

This study investigated the effects of rumen-protected methionine (RPM) and rumen-protected choline (RPC) on energy balance, postpartum lactation performance, antioxidant capacity and immune response in transition dairy cows. Forty-eight multiparous transition cows were matched and divided into four groups: control, 15 g/d RPC, 15 g/d RPM or 15 g/d RPC + 15 g/d RPM. Diet samples were collected ...

Remote-procedure calls (RPCs) allow distributed, high-level language programs to communicate and synchronize in the usual manner via subprogram calls. One of the great challenges in RPC research is to preserve the traditiional call semantics despite the distribution and heterogeneity of the new environment. The main contribution of SUPRA-RPC is in addressing the passing of subprograms as RPC pa...
