ION OF HETEROGENEITY YARN creates containers on each machine based on the total memory and the number of CPU cores. If there are two machines with different memory size, then they will have different numbers of containers. In other words, unlike Hadoop, YARN takes resource heterogeneity into account, in the case of memory. However, YARN still does not consider heterogeneity in other resource ch...

Article history: Received 12 August 2009 I study the slow adoption of ring spinning in Great Britain's cotton industry at the end of the 19th century, which has been used as evidence of British entrepreneurs' declining efficiency and conservatism (Musson, 1959; Aldcroft, 1964; Lazonick, 1981, 1981b). To this purpose I use firm-level data from all of Lancashire's cotton firms over several years....

The preparation of warp yarn is more demanding and complicated than that of the filling yarn. Each spot in a warp yarn must undergo several thousand cycles of various tensions applied by the weaving machine. In general terms, warping is transferring many yarns from a creel of single-end packages forming a parallel sheet of yarns wound onto a beam or a section beam. In Figure 1 is shown the Sche...

Core yarn was spun by introducing a PVA multifilament as the core through the yarn forming zone of a ring spinning frame and viscose fibers as the sheath containing tracer fibers. The water soluble PVA multifilament was extracted from the yarn structure. Then internal structure and properties of the hollow ring yarn was assessed and compared with those of typical ring yarns. Also, two plain fab...

Tearing strength is one of the important quality items finished woven fabrics. It refers to rupture a fabric progressively along line thread by thread. mainly depends on fibre, yarn and characteristics with mechanical chemical finishing treatments given fabric. From an industry point view, studying this characteristic essential urgent step because it reflects endurance extent end textile struct...
