Today, a highly integrated microcontroller can handle the functional control of these machines. To connect the microcontroller to the Internet, one must implement a protocol stack on the device. To function, this protocol usually requires a powerful processor, a complete operating system, and a large amount of memory. In this case, the implementation of a stand-alone Internet protocol stack cou...

A new weak shared coin protocol yields a randomized waitfree shared-memory consensus protocol that uses an optimal O(n) expected total work with single-writer registers despite asynchrony and process crashes. Previously, no protocol was known that achieved this bound without using multi-writer registers.

This document describes a protocol providing Remote Direct Memory Access (RDMA) as a new transport for Remote Procedure Call (RPC). The RDMA transport binding conveys the benefits of efficient, bulkdata transport over high-speed networks, while providing for minimal change to RPC applications and with no required revision of the application RPC protocol, or the RPC protocol itself.

We are currently investigating two di erent approaches to scalable shared memory Munin a distributed shared memory DSM system implemented entirely in software and Willow a true shared memory multiprocessor with extensive hardware support for scalability Munin allows parallel programs written for shared memory multiprocessors to be executed e ciently on dis tributed memory multiprocessors Unlike...

Introduction: Today, humans leave in a world surrounded by electromagnetic fields. Numerous studies have been carried out to discover the biological, physiological, and behavioral effects of electromagnetic fields on humans and animals. Given the biological similarities between monkeys and humans, the goal of the present research was to examine Visual Memory (VM), hormonal, genomic, and anatomi...

Background & Aim:Cognitive impairment is one of the age-related mental problems and a typical indicator of neurodegeneration. Eragrostis tremula Hochst. ex Steud. is a commonly used medicinal plant in Nigeria for memory enhancement. This study, therefore, aimed at evaluating the memory-enhancing potential of aqueous ethanolic extract of E. tremula in ...

To verify cache coherence protocols for distributed multi-processor architectures, we compare a state graph of the implementation with a speciication which is a state graph representing the simpliied behavior. The steps in the spec-iication correspond to atomic transactions, which are not atomic in the implementation. The method relies on an abstraction function which aggregates the implementat...

Benzodiazepines (BDZs) are anxiolytic drugs that impair memory acquisition. Previous studies using the plus-maze discriminative avoidance task (PMDAT, which assesses memory and anxiety concomitantly) indicated that the effects of BDZs on anxiety and acquisition are related to each other. The possible influence of the anxiolytic action of BDZs on their effects on memory retrieval and extinction ...

In #at cache-only memory architectures (COMA), an attraction-memory miss must "rst interrogate a directory before a copy of the requested data can be located, which often involves three network traversals. By keeping track of the identity of a potential holder of the copy—called a hint— one network traversal can be saved which reduces the read penalty. We have evaluated the reduction of the rea...
