A new garbage collection algorithm for distributed object systems, called DMOS (Distributed Mature Object Space), is presented. It is derived from two previous algorithms, MOS (Mature Object Space), sometimes called the train algorithm, and PMOS (Persistent Mature Object Space). The contribution of DMOS is that it provides the following unique combination of properties for a distributed collect...

It is challengeable to utilize and integrate RFID data into current Enterprise Information Systems because high volume of RFID data is captured at high speed and the data are in heterogeneous formats. In this paper, we propose a “store and forward” and subscriptionbased integration approach in WinRFID Data Collector to solve the challenges. The Data Collector is a middleware which processes and...

In the present work the efficiency of a solar parabolic trough has been investigated experimentality. parabolic trough solar collector constitute a proven source of thermal energy for industrial process heat and power genaration. The impact of  using the partially porous media in the absorber on the efficiency of PTC (parabolic trough collector) has been investigated. The porosity of copper foa...

In this research, cerium recycling was studied by Adsorbing Colloid Flotation (ACF). Ten important parameters including collector type and dosage, cerium and colloid concentrations, frother type, activator type, preparation and frothing time, air flowrate and pH, each in two levels, were investigated. Statistical design of experiment was implemented for process modelling and analysis of var...

R efuse is collected all around the world. The following collecting methods are mentioned in the literature: bags (plastic and paper), bins (110–150 l), drums (110–210 l), twowheeled containers (80–360 l), and four-wheeled containers (300–1800 l). Over all, the job of a refuse collector can be characterised by frequent lifting, carrying, pushing, and/or pulling of heavy objects. In the Netherla...

An oldest-first generational garbage collector leaves intact the most recently allocated object space, and instead collects the remaining, older objects. Because these older objects have had more time to die, an oldestfirst copying collector will generally do less copying that a traditional generational collector (which operates youngest-first), a non-generational collector, and even Clinger an...

PMOS is an incremental garbage collector designed specifically to reclaim space in a persistent object store. It is complete in that it will, after a finite number of invocations, reclaim all unreachable storage. PMOS imposes minimum constraints on the order of collection and offers techniques to reduce the I/O traffic induced by the collector. Here we present the first implementation of the PM...

A Faraday probe with three concentric rings was designed and fabricated to assess the effect of gap width and collector diameter in a systematic study of the diagnostic ion collection area. The nested Faraday probe consisted of two concentric collector rings and an outer guard ring, which enabled simultaneous current density measurements on the inner and outer collectors. Two versions of the ou...
