Oblivious RAM (ORAM) is a provable technique to protect a user’s access pattern to outsourced data. Recently, many ORAM constructions have been proposed, but most of them are impractical due to high communication and user-side storage costs. Motivated by Partition ORAM (P-ORAM) [15], a state-of-the-art communication-efficient ORAM construction, this paper proposes GP-ORAM (Generalized Partition...

The Ports of Long Beach and Los Angeles are the largest container port complex in North America and fifth largest in the world. Growth in U.S. Pacific Rim trade has put pressure on the landside transportation systems serving these two ports. In order to address this growth and mitigate environmental impacts, the ports are implementing new operational strategies and infrastructure improvements. ...

The aim of this study is to define and introduce the variable of export entrepreneurship and factors affecting it in a global export-centric model. However, we seek to find the effect of the variables of export entrepreneurship and export market orientation‎ on export performance. To test the research hypotheses, a sample of 296 people employed in food and agricultural products company located ...

In this paper we shortly present a reverse engineering framework called Columbus that is able to analyze large C/C++ projects. Columbus supports project handling, data extraction, -representation, -storage and -export. Efficient filtering methods can be used to produce comprehensible diagrams from the extracted information. The flexible architecture of the Columbus system (based on plug-ins) ma...

This paper examines the architectural issues in building storage systems for object-oriented database management systems (OO DBMSs) and persistent languages. We survey techniques for placing small and large objects on disk and disk space management, and we present client-server architectures for OO DBMSs. We describe alternatives in making a programming language persistent and in particular, we...

This article instructs the subsequent water detection system design and implementation of sanitary ware. This system used C8051f040 Microcontroller as the main control module and communication module which controlled the operation of the entire system, touch screen as a position machine,and made use of metal probing technique and weighing sensor technology to realize data test, collection, disp...

Species composition, seasonality and distribution of immature fly populations on a southern Queensland feedlot during 2001-2003 were determined. Similar data were collected on feedlots in central New South Wales and central Queensland. The fly species recovered in the highest numbers were Musca domestica L. (Diptera: Muscidae), Stomoxys calcitrans L. (Diptera: Muscidae) and Physiphora clausa Ma...

Yard-scale landscape designs can influence environmental quality through effects on habitat, stormwater runoff, and water uality. Native plant gardens may have ecological benefits, and previous research has shown that yards using these plants an be designed in ways that people find attractive. This study examines whether people are willing to pay more for more cologically benign designs than fo...
