Cloud computing is widely adopted by corporate as well as retail customers to reduce the upfront cost of establishing computing infrastructure. However, switching to the cloud based services poses a multitude of questions, both for customers and for data center owners. In this work, we propose an algorithm for optimal placement of multiple virtual data centers on a physical data center. Our alg...

This paper addresses the change from batch mode to online mode in offices and workplaces in the 1970s and 1980s. Particular focus is on the role of IBM and the 3270 display terminal. The change had profound implications for users and system developers. The paper is based on oral history interviews with former employees of the two large Danish service bureaus, Datacentralen and Kommunedata, and ...

in current work, cds/black carbon nanocomposites were successfully synthesized with the aid of chestnut and cadmium nitrate as the starting reagents. besides, the effects of preparation parameters such as reaction time, and precursor concentration on the morphology of products and removal of heavy metals (hg+2, pb+2) were studied by scanning electron microscopy images and batch adsorption mode....

Kalman filters and ARIMA models provide optimum control and evaluation techniques (in a minimum squared error sense) for clocks and precision oscillators. Typically, before the models can be used, an analyeie of data provides estimates of the model parameters (e.g., the phi's and theta's for an ARIMA model). These model parameters are often evaluated in a batch mode on a computer after a large ...

Calmodulin (CaM) + ATP can reprime voltage-gated L-type Ca(2+) channels (Ca(V)1.2) in inside-out patches for activation, but this effect decreases time dependently. This suggests that the Ca(V)1.2 channel activity is regulated by additional cytoplasmic factors. To test this hypothesis, we examined the role of cAMP-dependent protein kinase A (PKA) and protein phosphatases in the regulation of Ca...
